Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The call emphasizes many substantive positives: strong quarterly performance, robust cash generation, a large secured forward revenue backlog (~$2.0B) with high near-term contract coverage, active fleet renewal with derisked newbuilds, conservative liquidity and leverage metrics, continued shareholder dividends, and achievement of sustainability targets ahead of plan. Risks and headwinds were acknowledged—notably weaker 2026 guidance versus 2025, ongoing macro and geopolitical uncertainties (including Red Sea routing and protectionism), regulatory compliance costs inflating reported revenues, and replacement/orderbook dynamics in the feeder segment. Overall the positives (backlog, modernization, cash, coverage, sustainability, and capital returns) outweigh the near-term challenges and uncertainties highlighted.Company Guidance
Strong Quarterly and Full-Year Financials
Q4 2025 revenue of approximately $126M and adjusted EBITDA of ~$75M; full-year 2025 operating revenue $518M and adjusted EBITDA $306M. Operational cash flow for full-year 2025 was $302M.
Robust Forward Revenue Backlog and Contract Coverage
Secured approximately $2.0B in forward revenue backlog, translating to ~ $1.2B projected EBITDA on minimum contracted periods. Contract coverage of 97% for 2026, 58% for 2027 and 35% for 2028, providing multiyear earnings visibility.
Active Fleet Renewal and Newbuilding Program
Increased newbuilds on order to 17 (including six 3,700 TEU vessels contracted against 10-year time charters). Total newbuilding CapEx ~ $850M; recent additional vessel contract price ~$293M with projected EBITDA coverage of ~$288M. Average fleet age improved from 2007 to 2015 and fleet size stands at ~68 vessels.
High Utilization and Strong Charter Market Execution
Vessel utilization above 98%; completed 20 fixtures throughout 2025 (and YTD 2026 fixtures averaging 2-year durations with rates north of $20,000/day, including a recent fixture at >$27,000/day for two years). Majority of fleet fixed for 2026 with only ~3% open days.
Divestments and Capital Recycling
Proactively divested 11 older/smaller vessels (avg age ~18 years, ~1,500 TEU) with total sales proceeds > $150M; proceeds redeployed into newbuilding program and fleet modernization. Company indicates implied NAV per share uplift (example sale corresponding to mid NOK 30/share).
Liquidity and Conservative Balance Sheet
End-2025 liquidity ~$425M (pro forma ~$477M including expected Q1 yard payments and undrawn RCF), undrawn RCF upsized to $130M. Gross debt ~$472M, net debt reduced to ~$150M, and leverage ~33% (described as moderate). 32 debt-free vessels with fair market value near $800M.
Shareholder Returns Maintained
Declared 17th consecutive dividend of $0.05 per share for Q4 (50% of adjusted net earnings for Q4); full-year 2025 dividend totaled $0.23 per share. Company has returned over $1B to shareholders since initiating recurring dividends.
Sustainability Target Achieved Ahead of Schedule
Senior unsecured sustainability-linked bond KPI required 10% GHG reduction by 2029; MPCC reports a 16.5% reduction already (driven by retrofits and sale of older tonnage). Retrofits (~$8M across 12 vessels) improved efficiency up to 25% in some cases.
