NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–International Seaways, Inc. (NYSE: INSW) (the “Company,” “Seaways,” or “INSW”), one of the largest tanker companies worldwide providing energy transportation services for crude oil and petroleum products, today reported results for the first quarter 2025.
HIGHLIGHTS & RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Quarterly Results:
- Net income for the first quarter of 2025 was $50 million, or $1.00 per diluted share.
- Adjusted net income(1), defined as net income excluding special items, for the first quarter of 2025 was $40 million, or $0.80 per diluted share, which excludes a gain on vessel sales in connection with the fleet optimization described below.
- Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the first quarter or 2025 was $91 million.
Fleet Optimization Program:
- Concluded strategic vessel swap (the “swap”), exchanging two of the Company’s oldest VLCCs and $3 million in cash for three 2015-built MRs through a series of sales and purchase transactions. A majority of the transactions were completed during the first quarter with only one MR delivery in late December 2024.
Healthy Balance Sheet:
- Total liquidity was approximately $673 million as of March 31, 2025, including cash of $133 million and $540 million undrawn revolving credit capacity.
- Repaid $80 million in outstanding revolving credit facilities, most of which had been drawn in connection with the vessel swap during the fourth quarter of 2024.
- Net loan-to-value remained low at approximately 15% as of March 31, 2025.
Returns to Shareholders:
- Paid a combined $0.70 per share in regular and supplemental dividends in March 2025.
- Declared a combined dividend of $0.60 per share to be paid in June 2025, representing 75% of adjusted net income(1) for the first quarter.
- Following the declared dividend payment in June 2025, combined dividend payments over the last twelve months will aggregate to $4.00 per share, representing a dividend yield close to 10%.
Lois K. Zabrocky, International Seaways President and CEO commented, “We delivered encouraging results for the first quarter of 2025, which were marked by a gradual strengthening of market conditions each month. Seaways took advantage of our balanced fleet of crude and product tankers to execute our disciplined capital allocation strategy. After two consecutive years of returning over $300 million to shareholders, we declared a combined dividend of $0.60 per share for the first quarter, delivering on our intention to return 75% of adjusted net income to shareholders. With our enhanced scale through pool employment and our healthy balance sheet, we believe we are well positioned to build on our track record of delivering compelling returns and incremental value for shareholders.”
Ms. Zabrocky continued, “While OECD inventories drew down by 50 million barrels during the quarter, pressuring near-term market fundamentals, the rate environment improved progressively during the first quarter. Looking ahead, the global economic outlook remains clouded by geopolitical uncertainty, but we believe oil demand will continue to grow. With inventories at depleted levels, replenishment will be necessary. We expect these dynamics, coupled with persistent regional imbalances, to support demand growth for seaborne transportation. We remain constructive on tanker supply, with modest fleet growth from scheduled deliveries and elevated recycling volumes – already ahead of recent years – that should help absorb new capacity.”
Jeff Pribor, the Company’s CFO stated, “Seaways continues to deliver on its commitment to balanced capital allocation. For the third consecutive quarter, we are returning 75% or more of our adjusted net income to shareholders through dividends. At the same time, we are reducing debt to preserve substantial revolving credit capacity to support fleet growth. We remain active in renewing our fleet with our strategic vessel swap, sales of older tonnage and progress payments on our newbuilding program, even as broader market transaction activity has slowed. Based on our strong financial position, highlighted by total liquidity of $673 million, we remain opportunistic with fleet renewal across our varied asset classes.”
FIRST QUARTER 2025 RESULTS
Net income for the first quarter of 2025 was $50 million, or $1.00 per diluted share, compared to net income of $144 million, or $2.92 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in results in the first quarter of 2025 was primarily driven by lower TCE revenues(1) from spot earnings that decreased an average of approximately $18,000 per day across the total fleet.
Shipping revenues for the first quarter were $183 million, compared to $274 million for the first quarter of 2024. Consolidated TCE revenues(1) for the first quarter were $178 million, compared to $271 million for the first quarter of 2024.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the first quarter was $91 million, compared to $191 million for the first quarter of 2024.
Crude Tankers
Shipping revenues for the Crude Tankers segment were $88 million for the first quarter of 2025, compared to $127 million for the first quarter of 2024. TCE revenues(1) were $85 million for the first quarter, compared to $124 million for the first quarter of 2024. This decrease was attributable to a decrease in spot rates as the average spot earnings of the VLCC, Suezmax and Aframax sectors were approximately $33,500, $30,900 and $25,400 per day, respectively, compared with approximately $44,700, $44,700 and $40,900 per day, respectively, during the first quarter of 2024.
Product Carriers
Shipping revenues for the Product Carriers segment were $95 million for the first quarter, compared to $148 million for the first quarter of 2024. TCE revenues(1) were $94 million for the first quarter, compared to $147 million for the first quarter of 2024. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decline in LR1 and MR spot earnings to approximately $27,400 and $21,400 per day, respectively, from approximately $66,300, and $38,000 per day, respectively in the first quarter of 2024.
FLEET OPTIMIZATION PROGRAM
During the first quarter of 2025, the Company concluded the swap with deliveries of two VLCCs to the buyer and taking delivery of the remaining two MRs. In the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company had agreed to deliver two VLCCs and $3 million in cash in exchange for three MRs through a series of individual vessel sales and purchase agreements with the same counterparty. Due to the timing of the transactions, the Company received net proceeds during the first quarter of 2025 of $50 million and paid $53 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.
As of April 1, 2025, the Company has 13 vessels on time charter agreements with an average duration of approximately two years and total future contracted revenues through expiry of approximately $283 million, excluding any applicable profit share. During the second quarter, the Company entered into an additional time charter agreement for one year on a 2017-built Suezmax with future contracted revenue of approximately $12 million.
The Company has contracts to build six scrubber-fitted, dual-fuel (LNG) ready, LR1 vessels in Korea with K Shipbuilding Co, Ltd at a total price of approximately $359 million. As of March 31, 2025, the Company has approximately $315 million in remaining construction commitments, which are expected to be paid through a combination of long-term financing and available liquidity. The vessels are contracted to be delivered beginning in the third quarter of 2025 through the third quarter of 2026. These vessels are expected to deliver into our niche Panamax International Pool, which has consistently outperformed the market.
BALANCE SHEET ENHANCEMENTS
In the first quarter of 2025, the Company repaid $102 million on its revolving credit facilities, composed of $70 million temporarily borrowed for timing differences in connection with the swap and $32 million to offset two quarters of capacity reductions in our revolving credit facilities. The Company drew $20 million on its revolving credit facilities toward the end of the first quarter.
During April 2025, the Company also repaid $36 million on its revolving credit facilities.
RETURNING CASH TO SHAREHOLDERS
In March 2025, the Company paid a combined dividend of $0.70 per share of common stock, composed of a regular quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share of common stock and a supplemental dividend of $0.58 per share.
Over the last twelve months, the Company paid combined dividends of $4.00 per share, which represents a dividend yield of close to 10% based on the average share price over the same period.
On May 7, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a combined dividend of $0.60 per share of common stock, composed of a regular quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share of common stock and a supplemental dividend of $0.48 per share of common stock. Both dividends will be paid on June 26, 2025, to shareholders with a record date at the close of business on June 12, 2025.
The Company currently has $50 million authorized under its share repurchase program, which expires at the end of 2025.

Reconciliation to Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, the following non-GAAP measures may provide certain investors with additional information that will better enable them to evaluate the Company’s performance. Accordingly, these non-GAAP measures are intended to provide supplemental information, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared with GAAP.
Adjusted Net Income
Adjusted net income consists of net income adjusted for the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. This measure does not represent or substitute net income or any other financial item that is determined in accordance with GAAP. While adjusted net income is frequently used as a measure of operating results and performance, it may not be necessarily comparable with other similarly titled captions of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation. The following table reconciles net income, as reflected in the condensed consolidated statement of operations, to adjusted net income:

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA consists of EBITDA adjusted for the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent, and should not be a substitute for, net income or cash flows from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Some of the limitations are: (i) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and (iii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt. While EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used as a measure of operating results and performance, neither of them is necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation. The following table reconciles net income as reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:

Time Charter Equivalent (TCE) Revenues
Consistent with general practice in the shipping industry, the Company uses TCE revenues, which represents shipping revenues less voyage expenses, as a measure to compare revenue generated from a voyage charter to revenue generated from a time charter. Time charter equivalent revenues, a non-GAAP measure, provides additional meaningful information in conjunction with shipping revenues, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, because it assists Company management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of its vessels and in evaluating their financial performance.
