- On May 8, 2023, announced an agreement to purchase four 8,544 TEU vessels for an aggregate purchase price of $123.3 million. All vessels were delivered during the second quarter of 2023 and are chartered to a leading liner operator for a minimum firm period of 24 months, followed by a 12-month extension at the charterer’s option. The purchase price was financed by a new credit facility for a total of $76.0 million and cash on hand. The credit facility is priced at SOFR + 3.50%, with SOFR fully covered by the Company’s pre-existing interest rate cap at 0.64%.

- On June 20, 2023, announced updates from three leading credit rating agencies. The Company’s Corporate Family Rating has been upgraded to Ba3 from B1, with a stable outlook, by Moody’s Investor Service. In addition, S&P Global Ratings revised the Company’s outlook to positive and affirmed its long-term issued credit rating at ‘BB’, and the Kroll Bond Rating Agency affirmed both the Company’s BB corporate rating with a stable outlook, as well as the BBB/stable investment grade rating and outlook for the $350.0 million 5.69% Senior Secured Notes due 2027.

- Between January 1, 2023, and June 30, 2023, added $211.9 million of firm contracted revenues to forward charter cover, calculated on the basis of the median firm periods of the respective charters. For vessels in our pre-existing fleet, new charter fixtures or extensions were agreed on eight ships between 2,200 and 3,500 TEU, charter extensions were exercised for two 7,800 TEU ships, a forward fixture was agreed for one ECO 9,100 TEU ship, and four 8,544 TEU vessels were purchased with charters attached; firm charter terms range from a few months to two years.

- Continued to utilize the $40.0 million authorization (the “Buy-back Authorization”) for opportunistic share repurchases, repurchasing a total of 582,178 Class A common shares during January 2023 for a total investment of $10.0 million. During second quarter of 2023 a further 385,064 Class A common shares were purchased for an investment of $7.0 million. Re-purchase prices in 2023 ranged between $16.12 and $18.69 per common share, with an average price of $17.56. A total of 2,027,882 Class A common shares have been repurchased under the Buy-back Authorization, for approximately $37.0 million. The Board has authorized a further $40.0 million for such share repurchases for a total of approximately $43.0 million of authorization capacity remaining.

George Youroukos, Executive Chairman of Global Ship Lease, stated: “In the second quarter, GSL continued to benefit from our strong contract cover at attractive rates, even as prevailing market charter rates and vessel values normalize. Chartering activity in the market has remained modest by historical standards, with limited capacity coming available outside the feeder segment, and idle capacity at quarter-end hovering around 1%. While this limited liquidity and the current macroeconomic uncertainty make it difficult to predict the market over the quarters ahead, charters agreed in the second quarter have shown some stability at rates that compare favorably to those that prevailed before the COVID-driven rate spike of 2021 and 2022. Mid-sized and smaller vessels such as those that make up the GSL fleet form the backbone of liner companies’ global networks, and we remain in active discussions with liners on additional opportunities to expand our current forward charter cover of $1.97 billion over 2.3 years, with only a limited number of open days through the end of 2024.

“Set against the backdrop of reduced asset prices for the high-specification, workhorse vessels that make up our fleet, we were able to utilize our strong balance sheet to purchase, finance on competitive terms, and take delivery of four post-panamax containerships with attractive charters attached; our first vessel acquisitions since before the period of sharply elevated asset values. Should current trends be sustained, we expect to see an increased number of potential purchase opportunities come into the market over time. We intend to maintain the disciplined and risk-averse approach to acquisitions that has served GSL well, focusing on secondhand containerships with cash flow visibility, attractive upside potential, and limited downside risk. Our strong balance sheet and contracted cash flows provide us with a strong platform from which to selectively pursue value-accretive growth opportunities, while also supporting our attractive dividend and active share buy-back program.”

Ian Webber, Chief Executive Officer, commented: “As evidenced by the recent upgrades and supportive commentary from the credit ratings agencies, our efforts to deleverage, reduce our cost of debt, and increase our overall financial strength and resilience have borne fruit, both in terms of our credit profile and our core business as a containership owner and lessor. Our recent acquisitions have reinforced these positive trends, as we raised debt at a margin of just 3.50%, and made use of the headroom under our existing 0.64% SOFR interest rate cap to conclude our recent vessel acquisitions at a highly competitive cost of capital. With long-term visibility on our contracted cash flows, a diversified portfolio of financially strong counterparties, floating interest rate exposure fully capped, and our proven ability to identify and execute accretive transactions, we remain well positioned to continue creating value for our shareholders through our disciplined and dynamic allocation of capital, including the use of the recently authorized additional $40 million of share buy-back capacity.”

(1) Operating Revenue is net of address commissions which represent a discount provided directly to a charterer based on a fixed percentage of the agreed upon charter rate and also includes the amortization of intangible liabilities and the effect of the straight lining of time charter modifications. Brokerage commissions are included in “Time charter and voyage expenses” (see below).

(2) Net Income available to common shareholders.

(3) Adjusted EBITDA and Normalized Net Income are non-U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) financial measures, as explained further in this press release, and are considered by Global Ship Lease to be a useful measure of its performance. For reconciliations of these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures to net income, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, please see “Reconciliation of Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures” below.

Operating Revenue and Utilization

Operating revenue derived from fixed-rate, mainly long-term, time-charters was $162.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, up $7.6 million (or 4.9%) on operating revenue of $154.5 million for the prior year period. The period-on-period increase in operating revenue was principally due to (i) charter renewals at higher rates on a number of vessels and (ii) the acquisition of the four new vessels which were delivered in the second quarter. The increase was partially offset by $8.9 million reduction in the amortization of intangible liabilities arising on below-market charters attached to certain vessel additions. There were 328 days of offhire in the second quarter of 2023 of which 236 were for scheduled drydockings, compared to 266 days of offhire in the prior year period of which 82 were for scheduled drydockings. Utilization for the second quarter of 2023 was 94.5% compared to utilization of 95.5% in the same period of the prior year.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, operating revenue was $321.4 million, up $13.3 million (or 4.3%) on operating revenue of $308.1 million in the comparative period, mainly due to the factors noted above.

The table below shows fleet utilization for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, 2020 and 2019.

In 2023, we anticipate four further regulatory drydockings, including for three of the four recently purchased ships.

Vessel Operating Expenses

Vessel operating expenses, which are primarily the costs of crew, lubricating oil, repairs, maintenance, insurance and technical management fees, were up 4.8% to $43.4 million for the second quarter of 2023, compared to $41.4 million in the comparative period. The increase of $2.0 million was mainly due to (i) increased crew expenses mainly due to global inflation and the limited supply of crew and (ii) increased cost of insurances due to premium increases. The average cost per ownership day in the quarter was $7,320, compared to $7,006 for the prior year period, up $314 per day, or 4.5%. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, vessel operating expenses were $86.2 million, or an average of $7,319 per day, compared to $80.9 million in the comparative period, or $6,875 per day, an increase of $444 per ownership day, or 6.5%.

Time Charter and Voyage Expenses

Time charter and voyage expenses comprise mainly commission paid to ship brokers, the cost of bunker fuel for owner’s account when a ship is off-hire or idle and miscellaneous owner’s costs associated with a ship’s voyage. Time charter and voyage expenses were $6.7 million for the second quarter of 2023, compared to $5.1 million in the second quarter of 2022. The increase was mainly due to increased commissions on charter renewals at higher rates, higher costs for bunker fuel for owner’s account due to increase in off hire days and additional voyage administration costs and additional operational requests from charterers.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, time charter and voyage expenses were $12.1 million, or an average of $1,031 per day, compared to $9.5 million in the comparative period, or $804 per day, an increase of $227 per ownership day, or 28.2% mainly to the factors noted above.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization for the second quarter of 2023 was $22.2 million, compared to $20.3 million in the second quarter of 2022. The increase was mainly due to the 14 drydockings completed after June 30, 2022.

Depreciation for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $43.4 million, compared to $40.1 million in the comparative period, with the increase being due to the 14 drydockings completed after June 30, 2022 and the acquisition of the four vessels delivered during the second quarter of 2023.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were $4.7 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $4.1 million in the second quarter of 2022. The increase was mainly due to higher stock-based compensation expense and a one-off expense occurred in second quarter of 2023 due to social security costs related to settlement of shares under the Omnibus Incentive Plan. The average general and administrative expense per ownership day for the second quarter of 2023 was $794, compared to $685 in the comparative period, an increase of $109 or 15.9%.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, general and administrative expenses were $9.5 million, compared to $10.3 million in the comparative period mainly due to lower stock-based compensation expense in the first quarter of 2023 and a one-off expense that occurred in first quarter of 2022 due to social security charges related to settlement of shares under the Omnibus Incentive plan. The average general and administrative expense per ownership day for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 was $807, compared to $875 in the comparative period, a decrease of $68 or 7.8%.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure) was $108.2 million for the second quarter of 2023, up from $96.6 million for the second quarter of 2022, with the net increase being mainly due to increased revenue from charter renewals at higher rates.

Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $213.1 million, compared to $187.0 million for the comparative period, an increase of $26.1 million or 14.0%.

Interest Expense and Interest Income

Debt as at June 30, 2023 totaled $925.3 million, comprising $491.3 million of secured bank debt collateralized by vessels, $310.6 million of 2027 Secured Notes collateralized by vessels, and $123.4 million under sale and leaseback financing transactions. As of June 30, 2023, five vessels were unencumbered.

Debt as at June 30, 2022 totaled $1,125.7 million, comprising $526.7 million of secured bank debt collateralized by vessels, $350.0 million of 2027 USPP Notes collateralized by vessels, $160.0 million under sale and leaseback financing transactions and $89.0 million of unsecured indebtedness on our 2024 Notes which were fully redeemed in July 2022. As of June 30, 2022, five of our vessels were unencumbered.

Interest and other finance expenses for the second quarter of 2023 was $10.9 million, down from $30.0 million for the second quarter of 2022. The decrease in interest and other finance expenses was mainly due to (i) a prepayment fee and non-cash write off of deferred financing charges of $14.1 million on the full repayment of Hayfin Credit Facility, (ii) the non-cash write off of deferred financing charges of $0.3 million on the full repayment of our Hellenic Credit Facility and (iii) $0.6 million premium paid on the redemption in April of $28.5 million of 2024 Notes, all of which took place in the second quarter 2022. The blended cost of our debt, taking into account the interest rate caps, has increased from approximately 4.51% for the second quarter 2022 to 4.53% for the second quarter 2023 due to the new credit facility for the four new vessels. Three month Libor increased in the second quarter of 2023 to 5.55% as compared to 1.30% in the prior year period.

Interest and other finance expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $22.0 million, down from $48.7 million for the comparative period. The decrease is mainly due to (i) the prepayment fee and the associated non-cash write off of deferred financing charges of $14.1 million on the full repayment of the Hayfin Credit Facility, (ii) the non-cash write off of deferred financing charges of $0.3 million on the full repayment of our Hellenic Credit Facility and (iii) the $0.6 million premium paid on the redemption in April of $28.5 million of 2024 Notes and (iv) a prepayment fee and the associated non-cash write off of deferred financing charges of $4.1 million on the full repayment of our Blue Ocean Junior Credit Facility, all of which took place in the six months ended June 30 2022.

Interest income for the second quarter 2023 was $2.6 million, up from $0.3 million for the second quarter of 2022. Interest income for the six months period ended June 30, 2023 was $4.4 million, compared to $0.5 million for the comparative period.

Other (expenses)/income, Net

Other expenses, net was $0.4 million in the second quarter 2023, compared to $0.2 million in the second quarter of 2022. Other income, net was $1.2 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2023, compared to $0.2 million for the comparative period.

Fair value adjustment on derivatives

In December 2021, we entered into a USD 1 month LIBOR interest rate cap of 0.75% through fourth quarter of 2026 on $484.1 million of floating rate debt, which reduces over time and represented approximately half of the outstanding floating rate debt. In February 2022, we entered into two additional USD 1-month LIBOR interest rate caps of 0.75% through the fourth quarter of 2026 on the remaining balance of $507.9 million of floating rate debt. One of these interest rate caps was not designated as a cash flow hedge and therefore the positive fair value adjustment of $1.4 million for the second quarter of 2023 was recorded through our statement of income. The negative fair value adjustment for the six month period ended June 30, 2023 amounted to $1.4 million. Interest rate caps have automatically transited to 1 month Compounded SOFR on July 1st, 2023 at a level of 0.64%.

Earnings Allocated to Preferred Shares

The Series B Preferred Shares carry a coupon of 8.75%, the cost of which for the second quarter of 2023 was $2.4 million, the same as in the second quarter 2022. The cost was $2.4 million in both quarters of 2023 and 2022 since there were no additional Series B Preferred Shares issued under our at-the-market program. The cost for the six months ended June 2023 was $4.8 million, the same as for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

(1) Modern design, high reefer capacity, fuel-efficient vessel.
(2) In many instances charterers have the option to extend a charter beyond the nominal latest expiry date by the amount of time that the vessel was off hire during the course of that charter. This additional charter time (“Offhire Extension”) is computed at the end of the initially contracted charter period. The Latest Charter Expiry Dates shown in this table have been adjusted to reflect offhire accrued up to the date of issuance of this release plus estimated offhire scheduled to occur during the remaining lifetimes of the respective charters. However, as actual offhire can only be calculated at the end of each charter, in some cases actual Offhire Extensions – if invoked by charterers – may exceed the Latest Charter Expiry Dates indicated.
(3) Anthea Y was forward fixed to a leading liner operator for a period of 24 months +/- 30 days, with the new charter to commence upon expiry of the existing charter in 3Q or 4Q23. The new charter is expected to generate annualized Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $11.9 million.
(4) MSC Qingdao & Agios Dimitrios are fitted with Exhaust Gas Cleaning Systems (“scrubbers”).
(5) GSL Ningbo chartered to MSC at $22,500 per day to July 2023. Thereafter, the charter has been extended by 48 to 52 months, at a rate expected to generate annualized Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $16.5 million.

Contract cover for each vessel is for a minimum firm period 24 months from the date each vessel is delivered, with charterers holding one year extension options. The vessels are expected to generate aggregate Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $76.6 million over the minimum firm period, increasing to $95.3 million if all options are exercised.
(7) GSL Eleni (delivered 2Q 2019) is chartered for five years; GSL Kalliopi (delivered 4Q 2019) and GSL Grania (delivered 3Q 2019) are chartered for three years plus two successive periods of one year each, at the option of the charterer. The first of these extension options was exercised for both vessels in 2Q 2022 and commenced for GSL Grania and for GSL Kalliopi in 3Q and in 4Q 2022, respectively. The second of these extension options was exercised for both vessels in 2Q 2023 and will commence for both vessels in 3Q23. During the option periods the charter rates for GSL Kalliopi and GSL Grania are $18,900 per day and $17,750 per day respectively.
(8) Mary, Kristina, Katherine, Alexandra, Alexis, Olivia I were forward fixed to Hapag-Lloyd for five years, followed by two periods of 12 months each at the option of the charterer. The new charters are scheduled to commence as each of the existing charters expire, on a staggered basis, between approximately late 2023 and late 2024, following the expiration of existing charters. The charters are expected to generate average annualized Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $13.1 million per ship.
(9) GSL Maria, GSL Violetta, GSL Arcadia, GSL MYNY, GSL Melita, GSL Tegea and GSL Dorothea. Contract cover for each ship is for a firm period of at least three years from the date each vessel was delivered, with charterers holding a one-year extension option on each charter (at a rate of $12,900 per day), followed by a second option (at a rate of $12,700 per day) with the period determined by – and terminating prior to – each vessel’s 25th year drydocking & special survey.
(10) GSL Tripoli, GSL Kithira, GSL Tinos, and GSL Syros. Ultra-high reefer ships of 5,470 TEU each. Contract cover on each ship is for a firm period of three years, from their delivery dates in 2021, at a rate of $36,500 per day, with a period of an additional three years (at $17,250 per day) at charterers’ option.
(11) Orca I. Chartered at $21,000 per day through to the median expiry of the charter in 2Q2024; thereafter the charterer has the option to charter the vessel for a further 12-14 months at the same rate.
(12) GSL Susan, CMA CGM Jamaica, CMA CGM Sambhar and CMA CGM America. In July 2022, these four vessels were each forward fixed for five years +/- 45 days at charter rates expected to generate average annualized Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $11.2 million per vessel.

About Global Ship Lease

Global Ship Lease is a leading independent owner of containerships with a diversified fleet of mid-sized and smaller containerships. Incorporated in the Marshall Islands, Global Ship Lease commenced operations in December 2007 with a business of owning and chartering out containerships under fixed-rate charters to top tier container liner companies. It was listed on the New York stock Exchange in August 2008.

As at June 30, 2023, Global Ship Lease owned 68 containerships ranging from 2,207 to 11,040 TEU, with an aggregate capacity of 375,406 TEU. 36 ships are wide-beam Post-Panamax.

As at June 30, 2023, the average remaining term of the Company’s charters, to the mid-point of redelivery, including options under the Company’s control and other than if a redelivery notice has been received, was 2.3 years on a TEU-weighted basis. Contracted revenue on the same basis was $1.97 billion. Contracted revenue was $2.39 billion, including options under charterers’ control and with latest redelivery date, representing a weighted average remaining term of 3.1 years.

Reconciliation of Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use certain “non-GAAP financial measures” as such term is defined in Regulation G promulgated by the SEC. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s operating performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes or includes amounts that are included in, or excluded from, the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We believe that the presentation of these measures provides investors with greater transparency and supplemental data relating to our financial condition and results of operations, and therefore a more complete understanding of factors affecting our business than U.S. GAAP measures alone. In addition, we believe that the presentation of these matters is useful to investors for period-to-period comparison of results as the items may reflect certain unique and/or non-operating items such as impairment charges, contract termination costs or items outside of our control.

We believe that the presentation of the following non-U.S. GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.

A. Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA represents net income available to common shareholders before interest income and expense, earnings allocated to preferred shares, income taxes, depreciation and amortization of drydocking net costs, gains or losses on the sale of vessels, amortization of intangible liabilities, charges for share based compensation, fair value adjustment on derivatives, the effect of the straight lining of time charter modifications, and impairment losses. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-U.S. GAAP quantitative measure used to assist in the assessment of our ability to generate cash from our operations. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. Adjusted EBITDA is not defined in U.S. GAAP and should not be considered to be an alternative to net income or any other financial metric required by such accounting principles. Our use of Adjusted EBITDA may vary from the use of similarly titled measures by others in our industry.

Adjusted EBITDA is presented herein both on a historic basis and on a forward-looking basis in certain instances. We do not provide a reconciliation of such forward looking non-U.S. GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure because such U.S. GAAP financial measure on a forward-looking basis is not available to us without unreasonable effort.

B. Normalized net income

Normalized net income represents net income available to common shareholders after adjusting for certain non-recurring items. Normalized net income is a non-U.S. GAAP quantitative measure which we believe will assist investors and analysts who often adjust reported net income for items that do not affect operating performance or operating cash generated. Normalized net income is not defined in U.S. GAAP and should not be considered to be an alternate to net income or any other financial metric required by such accounting principles. Our use of Normalized net income may vary from the use of similarly titled measures by others in our industry.

Normalized Earnings per Share is a non-U.S. GAAP quantitative measure which we believe will assist investors and analysts who often adjust reported Earnings per Share for items that do not affect operating performance or operating cash generated.
