Pyxis Tankers Inc. (NASDAQ: PXS) is an international maritime transportation company specializing in the product tanker sector. Our core business is the seaborne transportation of refined petroleum products and other bulk liquids such as vegetable oils and organic chemicals. We own and operate a modern fleet of double-hull product tankers with a weighted average vessel age of just 4.9 years, as of December 31, 2015. This young fleet is employed under a mix of short- and medium-term charters, providing operational flexibility and enhanced earnings potential.
Our fleet currently includes six vessels: Pyxis Epsilon, Pyxis Theta, Pyxis Malou, Northsea Alpha, Northsea Beta, and the newly acquired Konkar Asteri. Each of these vessels is “eco-modified” to be fuel-efficient, which aligns with our commitment to sustainable and cost-effective operations.
We are strategically positioned to expand our fleet opportunistically, thanks to our strong customer relationships and competitive cost structure. Our experienced management team and founder have interests that are well aligned with those of our shareholders, ensuring that company actions are in the best interest of all stakeholders.
Our financial condition remains robust, with available cash and short-term deposits amounting to almost $48 million. This liquidity, combined with potential bank debt, gives us the flexibility to pursue the acquisition of additional mid-sized vessels when favorable opportunities arise. In the short term, we aim to use free cash flow to increase balance sheet liquidity, repay debt, and repurchase common shares, further enhancing shareholder value.
Our common shares are listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the trading symbol 'PXS'.
