NEW YORK, Nov. 14, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Gener8 Maritime, Inc. (NYSE: GNRT) ("Gener8 Maritime" or the "Company"), a leading U.S.-based provider of international seaborne crude oil transportation services, today announced its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Highlights
-- Recorded net income / (loss) of $(37.4) million, or $(0.45) basic and diluted earnings per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $33.2 million or $0.41 basic and $0.40 diluted earnings per share for the same period in the prior year. Recorded adjusted net income / (loss) of $(0.7) million, or $(0.01) basic and diluted adjusted earnings per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $37.3 million or $0.46 basic and $0.45 diluted earnings per share for the same period in the prior year. -- Increased vessel operating days by 42.0% to 3,157 in the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to 2,224 in the same period in the prior year. -- Took delivery of four "ECO" newbuilding VLCCs, the Gener8 Chiotis, the Gener8 Macedon, the Gener8 Perseus and the Gener8 Oceanus, during the third quarter of 2016 and the Gener8 Miltiades and Gener8 Noble subsequent to the end of the quarter. -- Sold the 2001-built VLCC tankers Genmar Vision and Genmar Victory for gross proceeds of $28.0 million and $29.0 million, respectively, and prepaid $38.8 million of debt associated with the two vessels.
"In the third quarter, we continued our fleet renewal program with the sale of two 2001-built VLCCs. At the same time, we expanded our fleet with the delivery of four "ECO" VLCCs in the third quarter and two more in the fourth quarter," said Peter Georgiopoulos, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Gener8 Maritime. "Following the completion of our newbuilding program expected early next year, the DWT-weighted average age of our fleet will be 5.9 years, and our VLCCs will have an average age of just 3.1 years, giving us the youngest and most modern VLCC fleet among our public company peers. One of the key advantages of our "ECO" design vessels is increased fuel efficiency, which was a positive driver of the TCE rates we achieved in the third quarter in a relatively weak rate environment. We believe this advantage will become more pronounced once the International Maritime Organization ("IMO") mandate to reduce sulphur content of marine fuel by approximately 85% goes into effect. This mandate - a landmark decision for the protection of our environment - could result in a doubling of the price of marine fuel and will have a dramatic effect on the shipping industry. Under the IMO mandate, the expected cost savings attributable to our fuel-efficient vessels is expected to increase, furthering our competitive position in the market and increasing the premium charter rate for "ECO" VLCCs."
Leo Vrondissis, Chief Financial Officer, added, "Following the delivery of the Gener8 Noble on November 7, 2016, 17 of the 21 "ECO" VLCCs from our newbuilding program have been delivered. Coincident with these deliveries, our daily direct operating expenses have declined for four consecutive quarters, highlighting one of the benefits of operating a young, modern fleet that requires less maintenance and repairs. Additionally, in conjunction with the sales of the Genmar Vision and Genmar Victory we prepaid $38.8 million of debt in the third quarter, which will have a positive effect on our interest expense going forward."
Fleet Performance
The average TCE rates earned by Gener8 Maritime's vessels are detailed below:
Gener8 Maritime Average Daily TCE Rates(1) ----------------------------------------- Three Months Ended ------------------ Sep-16 Sep-15 ------ ------ VLCC Average Spot TCE Rate $27,493 $55,847 Average Time Charter TC Rate N/A $36,154 SUEZMAX Average Spot TCE Rate $18,281 $32,497 Average Time Charter TC Rate N/A $18,983 AFRAMAX Average Spot TCE Rate $12,549 $25,742 Average Time Charter TC Rate N/A N/A PANAMAX Average Spot TCE Rate $11,259 $17,386 Average Time Charter TC Rate N/A N/A HANDYMAX Average Spot TCE Rate N/A $15,647 Average Time Charter TC Rate N/A N/A FULL FLEET Average Spot TCE Rate $21,887 $35,609 Average Time Charter TC Rate N/A $33,582 FULL FLEET TCE Rate $21,887 $35,422
(1) Time Charter Equivalent, or "TCE," is a measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel. The Company calculates TCE by dividing net voyage revenue by total operating days for its fleet. Net voyage revenues are voyage revenues minus voyage expenses. The Company evaluates its performance using net voyage revenues. The Company believes that presenting voyage revenues, net of voyage expenses, neutralizes the variability created by unique costs associated with particular voyages or deployment of vessels on time charter or on the spot market and presents a more accurate representation of the revenues generated by its vessels. Please refer to the tables at the end of this release for a reconciliation of TCE and net voyage revenues to voyage revenues. Spot TCEs include all spot voyages for the Company's vessels, including those that were in Navig8 pools.
Summary Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2016
The Company's net income / (loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $(37.4) million, or $(0.45) basic and diluted earnings per share, compared to net income of $33.2 million, or $0.41 basic and $0.40 diluted earnings per share, for the same period in the prior year.
The Company recorded adjusted net income / (loss) of $(0.7) million, or $(0.01) basic and diluted adjusted earnings per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2016, compared to adjusted net income of $37.3 million, or $0.46 basic and $0.45 diluted adjusted earnings per share, for the same period in the prior year. Please refer to the tables at the end of this release for a reconciliation of adjusted net income to net income.
Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2016 decreased by $13.4 million to $34.9 million compared to $48.3 million for the same period in the prior year. Please refer to the tables at the end of this release for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income.
The average daily spot TCE rates obtained by the Company's VLCC fleet, including its vessels that were within Navig8 pools, was $27,493 for the three months ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $28,354, or 50.8%, from the same period in the prior year. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company's "ECO" VLCC fleet earned an average daily TCE of $28,471, and the Company's non-"ECO" VLCC fleet earned an average daily TCE of $25,199. The average daily TCE rate obtained by the Company on a full-fleet basis decreased by $13,535, or 38.2%, to $21,887 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $35,422 for the prior year period.
Net Voyage Revenues
Voyage revenues decreased by $17.0 million, or 19.1%, to $72.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $89.3 million for the prior year period. Voyage expenses decreased by $7.3 million, or 70.0%, to $3.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $10.5 million for the prior year period.
The majority of the vessels in our fleet were deployed in pools managed by Navig8 Group as of September 30, 2016. Revenues from these pools are distributed on a net basis after deduction of voyage expenses, which are the responsibility of the pools, and certain administrative expenses. This reduces voyage revenues compared to spot charter revenues. As of September 30, 2016, we had 35 owned vessels in the Navig8 pools, which includes four additional newbuilding vessels that were deployed into the Navig8 pools during the three months ended September 30, 2016.
Our Navig8 pool revenues increased by $9.5 million, or 17.0%, to $65.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $56.0 million during the prior year period. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in our vessel operating days in Navig8 pools of 1,476 days, to 2,944 days for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to 1,468 days during the prior year period. The increase in vessel operating days resulted in an increase in Navig8 pool revenues of approximately $32.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the prior year period. The increase in Navig8 Pool revenues was partially offset by a decline in our average daily Navig8 pool charter hire rates, which decreased by $15,910, or 41.7%, to $22,255 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $38,165 for the prior year period. In this press release, we use charter hire rates as a measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel on a per voyage basis determined by dividing voyage revenue by total operating days for the applicable fleet. The decline in our average daily Navig8 pool charter hire rates resulted in a decrease in Navig8 pool revenues of approximately $23.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the prior year period.
The decreases in our time charter and spot charter revenues of $6.9 million and $19.7 million, to $0 million and $6.7 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $6.9 million and $26.4 million, respectively, for the prior year period, were primarily the result of the recent sales of the Genmar Victory and Genmar Vision and the transition of our vessels into the Navig8 pools. Contributing to the decrease in spot charter revenues was a decline in our average daily spot charter hire rates, which decreased by $16,241, or 34.0%, to $31,596 for the three months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $47,837 for the prior year period. In addition, the $7.3 million decrease in our voyage expenses to $3.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $10.5 million for the prior year period, was primarily the result of the transition of our vessels from the spot market into the Navig8 pools.
Net voyage revenues decreased by $9.7 million, or 12.3%, to $69.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $78.8 million for the prior year period. The decrease in net voyage revenues was primarily attributable to lower average daily TCE rates achieved in the current period. The decrease in net voyage revenue was partially offset by an increase in our vessel operating days following the delivery of additional VLCC newbuildings during the three months ended September 30, 2016.
Direct Vessel Operating Expenses
Direct vessel operating expenses, which include crew costs, provisions, deck and engine stores, lubricating oil, insurance, maintenance and repairs for owned vessels, increased by $6.5 million, or 31.4%, to $27.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $20.5 million for the prior year period.
The increase in direct vessel operating expenses in the current period was primarily related to the increase in our fleet size and partially offset by decreases in daily direct vessel operating expenses per vessel of $222, or 2.6%, to $8,322 per day for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $8,544 per day for the prior year period, primarily as a result of lower operating costs, including crew costs, insurance and other costs, associated with our newly delivered vessels.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased by $1.1 million, or 13.1%, to $7.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $8.2 million in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in legal and professional expenses of $1.3 million, or 47.0% to $1.5 million, compared to $2.8 million in the prior year period. This decrease was partially offset by non-employee directors compensation of $0.3 million recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2016 that did not occur in the prior year period.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization, which includes depreciation of vessels as well as amortization of drydock and special survey costs, increased by $11.5 million, or 99.3%, to $23.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $11.6 million for the prior year period. Vessel depreciation increased by $10.7 million, or 106.8%, to $20.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the prior year period, while amortization of drydocking costs increased by $0.8 million, or 63.6%, to $2.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the prior year period. The increase in vessel depreciation and amortization of drydocking costs was primarily due to the increase in our fleet size and the additional drydocking costs incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the prior year period.
Goodwill Impairment
For the three months ended September 30, 2016, we recorded a goodwill impairment of $26.3 million, including $3.0 million of related goodwill in connection with the sales of the Genmar Victory and Genmar Vision.
Loss on Vessel Disposal, Net
During the three months ended September 30, 2016, we incurred losses associated with the disposal of vessels and certain vessel equipment of $10.8 million, primarily related to the sale of the Genmar Victory and the Genmar Vision.
Interest Expense, net
Interest expense, net increased by $13.5 million to $13.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $0.2 million for the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to the decrease in capitalized interest of $5.8 million, or 46.4%, to $6.7 million compared to $12.5 million for the prior year period, related to the funding of the acquisition of our VLCC newbuildings. Capitalized interest results in a reduction of interest expense, net. We do not capitalize interest expense associated with the funding of our VLCC newbuildings after delivery of the vessels. Contributing to the increase in interest expense, net during the three months ended September 30, 2016, was an increase in interest expense associated with our credit facilities and senior notes of $3.0 million, or 42.6%, to $10.1 million compared to $7.1 million for the prior year period due to an increase in outstanding borrowings. In addition, during the three months ended September 30, 2016, we recorded $1.4 million related to interest rate swaps settlements as interest expense, net. Also contributing to the increase in interest expense, net were increases in amortization of deferred financing costs of $2.4 million and in commitment fees of $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the prior year period. We incurred these additional deferred financing costs and commitment fees in connection with our entry into a refinancing credit facility that refinanced our former senior secured credit facilities, and the Amended Sinosure Credit Facility and the Korean Export Credit Facility, which we have used to fund a portion of the remaining installment payments due under our VLCC Newbuildings contracts.
Other (expense) income, net.
During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company's interest rate swap agreements were highly effective; hedge ineffectiveness of $1.5 million which was recognized in earnings as other (expense) income, net during the three months ended June 30, 2016, was reversed due to increases in interest rates during the three months ended September 30, 2016.
Subsequent events
On October 25, 2016, the Company took delivery of the Gener8 Miltiades, a 2016-built VLCC newbuilding. Upon delivery, the Gener8 Miltiades entered into the VL8 Pool. As of October 25, 2016, the Company borrowed approximately $53.3 million under the Amended Sinosure Credit Facility to fund the delivery of the Gener8 Miltiades. The Company has made all shipyard installment payments and there is no outstanding payable balance in respect of the Gener8 Miltiades.
On November 7, 2016, the Company took delivery of the Gener8 Noble, a 2016-built VLCC newbuilding. Upon delivery, the Gener8 Noble entered into the VL8 Pool. As of November 7, 2016, the Company borrowed approximately $52.5 million under the Korean Export Credit Facility to fund the delivery of the Gener8 Noble. The Company has made all shipyard installment payments and there is no outstanding payable balance in respect of the Gener8 Noble.

Reconciliation Tables
EBITDA represents net income (loss) plus net interest expense and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted to exclude the items set forth in the table below, which represent certain non-cash, one-time and other items that the Company's believes are not indicative of the ongoing performance of its core operations. Adjusted Net Income represents Net Income adjusted to exclude the same non-cash, one-time and other items, as well as commitment fees. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are included in this presentation because they are used by management and certain investors as measures of operating performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are used by analysts in the shipping industry as common performance measures to compare results across peers. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are not items recognized by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), and should not be considered in isolation or used as alternatives to net income, operating income, cash flow from operating activity or any other indicator of the Company's operating performance or liquidity required by GAAP. The Company's presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income is intended to supplement investors' understanding of its operating performance by providing information regarding its ongoing performance that exclude items the Company believes do not directly affect its core operations and enhancing the comparability of its ongoing performance across periods. The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income in addition to EBITDA and Net Income because Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income eliminate the impact of additional non-cash, one-time and other items not associated with the ongoing performance of its core operations, including charges associated with stock-based compensation, gains and losses on the sale of vessels and costs associated with its financing activities, that the Company believes further reduce the comparability of the ongoing performance of its core operations across periods. The Company's management considers EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income to be useful to investors because such performance measures provide information regarding the profitability of its core operations and facilitate comparison of its operating performance to the operating performance of the Company's peers. Additionally, the Company's management uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income as performance measures and they are also presented for review at the Company's board meetings. While the Company believes these measures are useful to investors, the definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income used here may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. In addition, these definitions are also not the same as the definition of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income used in the financial covenants in the Company's debt instruments. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company excluded from Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income Goodwill impairment because these are non-cash expenses that the Company does not believe reflect the ongoing performance of its core operations across periods. In addition, during the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company excluded from Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income Non-cash G&A expenses, excluding stock-based compensation expense, to conform its presentation to the Adjusted EBITDA presentation in the Company's 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
