Net revenues fell to $6.6M in Q4 2025 and $37.8M for full-year 2025, with the company posting significant operating losses despite $12.9M adjusted EBITDA for the year. The company faces structural headwinds from weak Panamax and bulk shipping markets, minimal scale (6 employees), and negative earnings, though it maintains quarterly dividends and is repositioning fleet composition.
