International Seaways reports Q2 adjusted EPS $1.02, consensus 90c

Reports Q2 revenue $195.64M, consensus $191.47M. Lois K. Zabrocky, International Seaways (INSW) President and CEO commented, “We continue to make meaningful progress in executing our disciplined capital allocation strategy by selling six of our oldest vessels and purchasing modern tonnage, strengthening our balance sheet and returning cash to shareholders. Since instituting our supplemental dividends in the fourth quarter of 2022, Seaways dividends aggregate to $15.25 per share, including our June declared dividend, which equates to an annualized yield of nearly 14% on our market capitalization over that period. Our balance sheet has the strength to withstand the volatility of the tanker markets, and combined with our enhanced scale through pool employment, the Company is well positioned to continue executing on fleet renewal and delivering long-term value to shareholders.”
