Performance Shipping ( (PSHG) ) has shared an announcement.

On March 4, 2026, Performance Shipping reported fourth-quarter 2025 net income of $7.6 million, down from $9.7 million a year earlier, as operating cash flow eased despite higher revenue of $26.2 million driven by additional ownership days from two newbuildings. For full-year 2025, net income rose to $50 million from $43.7 million in 2024, aided by a vessel sale, as the company maintained strong tanker market exposure despite slightly lower average TCE rates and continued to generate solid profitability.

The company highlighted a robust contracted revenue backlog of about $350 million, with charter coverage of roughly 88% for 2026 and 72% for 2027, underscoring significant cash-flow visibility for stakeholders. Recent developments included acquiring two 2019-built Suezmax tankers on three-year charters, taking delivery of a third LR2 Aframax in January 2026 on a five-year charter, securing multiple multi-year charters with blue-chip counterparties, arranging a $50 million tap of its Nordic bond, signing contracts for two new Suezmax newbuildings, and agreeing to sell its oldest vessel, all supporting a younger, larger fleet and a strengthened balance sheet amid a firm tanker market backdrop.

The most recent analyst rating on (PSHG) stock is a Buy with a $5.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Performance Shipping stock, see the PSHG Stock Forecast page.
