EuroDry
commented
: “During the third quarter of 2020, EuroDry benefited from gradually improving charter markets as a result of the re-opening of most economies after the pandemic-related lockdowns. Since the beginning of October and during early November, the market rates have given up some of the gains, but they remain at satisfactory levels given the increased economic uncertainty due to the second wave of the pandemic and renewed economic lockdowns, especially, in Europe.
Thus, we expect that the drybulk markets will be affected in the near term by the state of the world economies as influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic, and, in the medium term, by the low fleet growth due to historically low orderbook. Consequently, we anticipate that trade developments will be the key factor influencing the rates our vessels will earn.
To better exploit the above market trends, we are focused on reducing our capital costs and creating additional liquidity via selected debt refinancings and repayment of more expensive funding instruments in our balance sheet, and using any excess funds to renew or expand our fleet. We also continue to evaluate opportunities of using our public platform to consolidate other fleets as we believe this can offer significant appreciation potential to our shareholders and flexibility to partners joining our public platform.”
Tasos Aslidis, Chief Financial Officer of
EuroDry
commented
: “Comparing our results for the third quarter of 2020 with the same period of 2019, our net revenues decreased by about $0.9 million, due to the lower time charter equivalent rates our vessels earned as compared to the third quarter of 2019. Operating expenses, including management fees and general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $0.4 million as compared to the third quarter of 2019. This increase is mainly due to increased supply of stores and spare parts for our vessels in 2020 compared to 2019 and increased crewing costs, the latter resulting from difficulties in crew rotation due to COVID-19 related restrictions. Still, we believe that we maintain one of the lowest operating cost structures amongst the public shipping companies which is one of our competitive advantages.
Adjusted EBITDA during the third quarter of 2020 was $2.8 million compared to $2.2 million achieved for the third quarter of last year. Finally, as of September 30, 2020, our outstanding debt (excluding the unamortized loan fees) is about $52.1 million versus restricted and unrestricted cash of about $3.7 million.”

Third
Quarter
2020
Results:
For the third quarter of 2020, the Company reported total net revenues of $6.8 million representing a 11.3% decrease over total net revenues of $7.7 million during the third quarter of 2019 which was the result of the lower time charter rates our vessels earned in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the corresponding period of 2019. The Company reported net income for the period of $0.5 million and net income attributable to common shareholders of $0.1 million, as compared to a net loss of $0.4 million and a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $0.8 million for the same period of 2019. For the third quarter of 2020, a gain on bunkers resulted in positive voyage expenses of $0.4 million for the period as compared to voyage expenses of $0.7 million in the same period of 2019. Losses on derivatives of $0.2 million and drydocking expenses of $0.1 million contributed to the result for the quarter as compared to losses on derivatives of $0.6 million and drydocking expenses of $0.7 million during the third quarter of 2019. Depreciation expenses for the third quarter of 2020 amounted to $1.7 million compared to $1.6 million for the same period of 2019.
Interest and other financing costs for the third quarter of 2020 amounted to $0.6 million, compared to $0.8 million for the same period of 2019. Interest during the second quarter of 2020 was lower due to the lower average outstanding debt and the decreased Libor rates of our loans during the period as compared to the same period of last year. For the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized a marginal loss on three interest rate swaps and a $0.2 million realized loss on FFA contracts as compared to a loss on derivatives of $0.6 million for the same period of 2019, comprising of a $0.5 million loss on FFA contracts and a $0.1 million loss on one interest rate swap.
On average, 7.0 vessels were owned and operated during the third quarter of 2020 earning an average time charter equivalent rate of $11,873 per day compared to 7.0 vessels in the same period of 2019 earning on average $12,088 per day.
Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2020 was $2.8 million compared to $2.2 million achieved during the third quarter of 2019.
Basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to common shareholders for the third quarter of 2020 was $0.06 calculated on 2,279,730 basic and diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding, compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.35 for the third quarter of 2019, calculated on 2,254,830 basic and diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding.
Excluding the effect on the income attributable to common shareholders for the quarter of the unrealized loss / (gain) on derivatives, the adjusted earnings per share attributable to common shareholders for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 would have been $0.05 compared to adjusted loss of $0.26 per share basic and diluted for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. Usually, security analysts do not include the above item in their published estimates of earnings per share.
First
Nine Months
2020
Results:
For the first nine months of 2020, the Company reported total net revenues of $15.9 million representing a 19.1% decrease over total net revenues of $19.6 million during the first nine months of 2019, as a result of the lower time charter rates our vessels earned in the first nine months of 2020 compared to the same period of 2019. The Company reported net loss for the period of $5.6 million and net loss attributable to common shareholders of $6.7 million, as compared to a net loss of $1.4 million and a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $2.9 million, for the first nine months of 2019. Vessel operating expenses were $8.7 million for the first nine months of 2020 as compared to $8.0 million for the first nine months of 2019 due to increased supply of stores and spare parts for our vessels in 2020 compared to 2019 and increased crewing costs resulting from difficulties in crew rotation due to COVID-19 related restrictions. Depreciation expenses for the first nine months of 2020 were $4.9 million compared to $4.8 million during the same period of 2019.
Interest and other financing costs for the first nine months of 2020 amounted to $1.9 million compared to $2.7 million for the same period of 2019. This decrease is due to the lower average outstanding debt and the decreased Libor rates of our loans in the current period compared to the same period of 2019. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized a $0.5 million loss on three interest rate swaps and a $0.3 million loss on FFA contracts as compared to a gain on derivatives of $0.3 million for the same period of 2019, comprising of a $0.6 million gain on FFA contracts and a $0.3 million loss on one interest rate swap.
On average, 7.0 vessels were owned and operated during the first nine months of 2020 earning an average time charter equivalent rate of $8,927 per day compared to 7.0 vessels in the same period of 2019 earning on average $10,750 per day. In the first nine months of 2020, two vessels underwent special survey for a total cost of $1.8 million, as compared to two vessels that underwent special survey in the first nine months of 2019 for a total cost of $1.6 million.
Adjusted EBITDA for the first nine months of 2020 was $1.8 million compared to $6.5 million achieved during the first nine months of 2019.
Basic and diluted loss per share attributable to common shareholders for the first nine months of 2020 was $2.97, calculated on 2,271,542 basic and diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding compared to $1.31 basic and diluted loss per share for the first nine months of 2019, calculated on 2,248,182 basic and diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding.
Excluding the effect on the loss attributable to common shareholders for the first nine months of the year of the unrealized loss on derivatives, the adjusted loss per share attributable to common shareholders for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020 would have been $2.70 compared to a loss of $1.13 per share basic and diluted for the same period in 2019. As previously mentioned, usually, security analysts do not include the above item in their published estimates of earnings per share.

(1) Average number of vessels is the number of vessels that constituted the Company’s fleet for the relevant period, as measured by the sum of the number of calendar days each vessel was a part of the Company’s fleet during the period divided by the number of calendar days in that period.
(2) Calendar days. We define calendar days as the total number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet was in our possession including off-hire days associated with major repairs, drydockings or special or intermediate surveys or days of vessels in lay-up. Calendar days are an indicator of the size of our fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of expenses that we record during that period.
(3) The scheduled off-hire days including vessels laid-up are days associated with scheduled repairs, drydockings or special or intermediate surveys or days of vessels in lay-up.
(4) Available days. We define available days as the total number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet was in our possession net of scheduled off-hire days incl. laid up. We use available days to measure the number of days in a period during which vessels were available to generate revenues.
(5) Commercial off-hire days. We define commercial off-hire days as days a vessel is idle without employment.
(6) Operational off-hire days. We define operational off-hire days as days associated with unscheduled repairs or other off-hire time related to the operation of the vessels.
(7) Voyage days. We define voyage days as the total number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet was in our possession net of commercial and operational off-hire days. We use voyage days to measure the number of days in a period during which vessels actually generate revenues or are sailing for repositioning purposes.
(8) Fleet utilization. We calculate fleet utilization by dividing the number of our voyage days during a period by the number of our available days during that period. We use fleet utilization to measure a company’s efficiency in finding suitable employment for its vessels and minimizing the amount of days that its vessels are off-hire for reasons such as unscheduled repairs or days waiting to find employment.
(9) Fleet utilization, commercial. We calculate commercial fleet utilization by dividing our available days net of commercial off-hire days during a period by our available days during that period.
(10) Fleet utilization, operational. We calculate operational fleet utilization by dividing our available days net of operational off-hire days during a period by our available days during that period.
(11) Time charter equivalent, or TCE, is a measure of the average daily net revenue performance of our vessels. Our method of calculating TCE is determined by dividing time charter revenue and voyage charter revenue net of voyage expenses by voyage days for the relevant time period. Voyage expenses primarily consist of port, canal and fuel costs that are unique to a particular voyage, which would otherwise be paid by the charterer under a time charter contract, or are related to repositioning the vessel for the next charter. TCE is a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period-to-period changes in a shipping company’s performance despite changes in the mix of charter types (i.e., spot voyage charters, time charters, pool agreements and bareboat charters) under which the vessels may be employed between the periods. Our definition of TCE may not be comparable to that used by other companies in the shipping industry.
(12) Daily vessel operating expenses, which include crew costs, provisions, deck and engine stores, lubricating oil, insurance, maintenance and repairs and management fees are calculated by dividing vessel operating expenses by fleet calendar days for the relevant time period. Drydocking expenses are reported separately.
(13) Daily general and administrative expense is calculated by dividing general and administrative expenses by fleet calendar days for the relevant time period.
(14) Total vessel operating expenses, or TVOE, is a measure of our total expenses associated with operating our vessels. TVOE is the sum of vessel operating expenses, management fees and general and administrative expenses; drydocking expenses are not included. Daily TVOE is calculated by dividing TVOE by fleet calendar days for the relevant time period.
(15) Drydocking expenses include expenses during drydockings that would have been capitalized and amortized under the deferral method divided by the fleet calendar days for the relevant period. Drydocking expenses could vary substantially from period to period depending on how many vessels underwent drydocking during the period. The Company expenses drydocking expenses as incurred.

Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation:
EuroDry Ltd. considers Adjusted EBITDA to represent net income / (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation, unrealized (gain) / loss on Forward Freight Agreements (FFAs) and (gain) / loss on interest rate swaps. Adjusted EBITDA does not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income / (loss), as determined by United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is included herein because it is a basis upon which the Company assesses its financial performance because the Company believes that this non-GAAP financial measure assists our management and investors by increasing the comparability of our performance from period to period by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods of, financial costs, unrealized (gain) / loss on FFAs and (gain) / loss on interest rate swaps, and depreciation. The Company’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as that used by other companies in the shipping or other industries.

EuroDry Ltd. considers Adjusted net (loss) / income to represent net (loss) / income before unrealized loss/ (gain) on derivatives which includes FFAs and interest rate swaps. Adjusted net (loss) / income and Adjusted (loss) / earnings per share is included herein because we believe it assists our management and investors by increasing the comparability of the Company’s fundamental performance from period to period by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods of unrealized loss/ (gain) on derivatives, which may significantly affect results of operations between periods. Adjusted net (loss) / income and Adjusted (loss) / earnings per share do not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net (loss) / income or (loss) / earnings per share, as determined by GAAP.
