During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company acquired the 2011-built, secondhand dry bulk vessel Miracle (ex. Iron Miracle).

 

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company sold the dry bulk vessels Progress, Manzanillo and Konstantinos, which were held for sale at December 31, 2023, and the dry bulk vessels Alliance, Merida and Pegasus, and recognized an aggregate net gain of $993, which is separately reflected in Gain on sale of vessels, net in the accompanying consolidated statement of income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024.

 

On February 6, 2025, the Company decided to make arrangements to sell the dry bulk vessel Rose. The Company concluded that all the criteria required by the relevant accounting standard, ASC 360-10-45-9, for the classification of the vessel as “held for sale” were met. The difference between the estimated fair value less cost to sell the vessel and the vessel’s carrying value, amounting to $4,669, was recorded in the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, and is separately reflected as Loss on vessel held for sale in the accompanying consolidated statement of income.

The vessel was delivered to her new owners during the second quarter of 2025 (Note 24 (c)).

 

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded an impairment loss in relation to one of its dry bulk vessels in the amount of $179. The fair value of the vessel was determined through Level 2 input of the fair value hierarchy (Note 22).

 

As of March 31, 2025, 88 of the Company’s vessels, with a total carrying value of $2,457,706, have been provided as collateral to secure the long-term debt discussed in Note 10. This excludes the vessels YM Triumph, YM Truth, YM Totality, YM Target and YM Tiptop, the four vessels acquired in 2018 under the Share Purchase Agreement (Note 10.B) with York Capital Management Global Advisors LLC and its affiliate Sparrow Holdings, L.P. (collectively, “York”) and eight unencumbered vessels.

(c) Net investment in Sales-type leases: In April and May 2023, the container vessels Vela and Vulpecula, respectively, commenced variable rate time charters. The time charters were classified as Sales-type leases and on their commencement dates an aggregate gain of $29,579 was recognized as Gain on sale of vessels, net.

 

The balance of the Net investment in sales-type lease reflected in the accompanying balance sheet is analyzed as follows:

 

      December 31, 2024       March 31, 2025  
Lease receivable   $ 18,976     $ 8,373  
Unguaranteed residual value     506       504  
Net investment in sales-type lease vessels   $ 19,482     $ 8,877  
                 
Net investment in sales-type lease vessels, current     (12,748 )     (1,690 )
Net investment in sales-type lease vessels, non-current   $ 6,734     $ 7,187  

 

During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2025, the interest income relating to the net investment in sales-type leases amounted to $13,111 and $5,163, respectively, and is included in Voyage revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The following table presents a maturity analysis of the lease payments on sales-type leases to be received over the next five years and thereafter, as well as a reconciliation of the undiscounted cash flows to the net investment in the lease receivables recognized in the consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2025.

 

12-month period ending March 31,     Amount  
2026     $ 10,734  
2027       5,701  
2028       5,622  
2029       343  
Total undiscounted cash flows     $ 22,400  
Present value of lease payments*     $ 8,373  

 

*The difference between the present value of the lease payments and the net investment in the lease balance in the balance sheet is due to the vessels unguaranteed residual value, which is included in the net investment in the lease balance but is not included in the future lease payments.

 

12. Operating lease Right-of-Use Assets and Liabilities: 

 

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, CBI chartered-in 53 third-party vessels on short/medium/long-term time charters. The carrying value of the operating lease liabilities recognized in connection with the time charter-in vessel arrangements as of March 31, 2025 amounted to $253,238. To determine the operating lease liability at each lease commencement, the Company used incremental borrowing rates since the rates implicit in each lease were not readily determinable. For the operating charter-in arrangements that commenced during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, the Company used the incremental borrowing rate of 5.49% and the respective weighted average remaining lease term as of March 31, 2025 was 0.94 years. The payments required to be made after March 31, 2025 for the outstanding operating lease liabilities of the time charter-in vessel agreements with an initial term exceeding 12 months, recognized on the balance sheet, are as follows:

 

12-month period ending March 31,     Amount  
2026     $ 206,197  
2027       69,477  
Total     $ 275,674  
Discount based on incremental borrowing rate       (22,436 )
Operating lease liabilities, including current portion     $ 253,238

14. Commitments and Contingencies

 

(a) Time charters: As of March 31, 2025, future minimum contractual time charter revenues assuming 365 revenue days per annum per vessel and the earliest redelivery dates possible, based on vessels’ committed, non-cancellable, time charter contracts, are as follows:

2029     285,900  
2030     186,431  
2031 and thereafter     96,738  
Total   $ 2,670,687  

 

The above calculation includes the time charter arrangements of the Company’s vessels in operation as at March 31, 2025, but excludes the time charter arrangements of: i) one dry bulk vessel for which the Company had not secured employment as of March 31 , 2025, and ii) 20 dry bulk vessels in operation for which their time charter rate is index-linked, one vessel in pool agreement and 49 voyages for which their rate is index-linked. These arrangements as at March 31, 2025, have remaining terms of up to 77 months.

 

(b) Charter-in commitments: The Company within its context of operations has agreed to forward charter-in from third-parties, vessels that are currently under construction. Such lease payments of approximately $62.0 million are payable in varying amounts, from the second quarter of 2026 until the third quarter of 2033.

 

(c) Capital Commitments: As of March 31, 2025, the Company had outstanding equity commitments of (i) $180 million in relation to the acquisition of six vessels through NML from a joint venture, as guarantor, and related entities, as sellers, under sale and leaseback transactions, subject to final documentation, under which the vessels will be chartered back to the sellers under bareboat charter agreements; The Company’s chairman and chief executive officer Konstantinos Konstantakopoulos and a member of his family indirectly hold an equity interest of approximately 17% each in the joint venture; and (ii) $57 million in relation to the acquisition of six vessels through NML under sale and leaseback transactions, subject to final documentation, under which the vessels will be chartered back to the sellers under bareboat charter agreements.

 

(d) Other: Various claims, suits, and complaints, including those involving government regulations, arise in the ordinary course of the shipping business. In addition, losses may arise from disputes with charterers, agents or suppliers relating to the Company’s vessels. Currently, management is not aware of any such claims not covered by insurance or of any contingent liabilities, which should be disclosed, or for which a provision has not been established in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company accrues for the cost of environmental liabilities when management becomes aware that a liability is probable and is able to reasonably estimate the probable exposure. Currently, management is not aware of any such claims or contingent liabilities not covered by insurance which should be disclosed, or for which a provision has not been established in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

15. Redeemable Non-controlling Interest

 

In 2022, the Company participated with three other investors (the “Other Investors”) in the share capital increase of CBI whereby (i) the Company became the holder of 100,000,000 common shares of CBI (representing 92.5% of the issued share capital of CBI) in exchange of $100,000 and (ii) the three Other Investors acquired, in aggregate, 8,108,108 common shares of CBI (representing 7.5% of the issued share capital of CBI) in exchange of $3,750. During the year ended December 31, 2023, CBI increased its share capital by issuing another 100,000,000 common shares to the Company in exchange for $100,000 and 8,108,108 common shares to the Other Investors in exchange for $3,750. In November 2024, the Company purchased 10,810,810.67 common shares of CBI (5.0%) from two of the Other Investors, increasing its stake in CBI to 97.5% (210,810,810.67 common shares), with payments in monthly installments until October 2026.

 

On November 14, 2022, the Company and the Other Investors entered into a shareholders’ agreement to regulate the operation of CBI. Pursuant to the shareholders agreement, an Other Investor can sell its shares in CBI at any time after the earlier of (i) the date that the service contract (the “Service Contract”) of the beneficial owner of that Other Investor is terminated without cause by the relevant Local Agency (Note 3(d)) and (ii) November 22, 2025. In the event that the relevant Other Investor seeks to sell its shares, according to the terms of the shareholders agreement, it can do so by: (a) first offering all (and not part) of its shares to the remaining Other Investors; (b) if none of the remaining Other Investors accept to purchase all the offered shares, secondly by offering its shares to the Company; (c) if the Company does not accept to purchase all the offered shares, thirdly by offering the shares to any third-party; and (d) if no third-party accepts to buy all the offered shares, fourthly by serving notice (the “Put Notice”) on the Company to purchase the offered shares at a cash price equaling 70% or, in the case the Service Contract was terminated without cause, 100% of their fair market value at the time of such Put Notice. In that case, the Company shall in effect redeem to the relevant Other Investor the whole or part of the value of its shares.

 

Based upon the Company’s evaluation of the redemption provisions concerning redeemable noncontrolling interests it was initially determined that the shareholders agreement contains provisions that require the Company to repurchase the non-controlling equity interest upon an occurrence of a specific triggering event that is not solely within control of the Company, and as such the Company classified the redeemable non-controlling interest outside of permanent equity. Based upon the Company’s evaluation of the redemption provisions concerning redeemable noncontrolling interest as of March 31, 2025, the Company determined in accordance with authoritative accounting guidance that it was not probable that an event otherwise requiring redemption of any redeemable noncontrolling interest would occur (i.e., the date for such event was not set or such event is not certain to occur). Therefore, none of the redeemable noncontrolling interests were identified as mandatorily redeemable interests at such times, and the Company did not record any values in respect of any mandatorily redeemable interests. Therefore, the redeemable non-controlling interest was adjusted for the portion of comprehensive income / (loss) of the period and the effect of the capital increases performed by the holders of non-controlling interest. The changes to redeemable non-controlling interest in subsidiary during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, were as follows:

 

Temporary equity – Redeemable non-controlling interest in subsidiary     Amount  
Balance, December 31, 2024   $ (2,453 )
Net income attributable to redeemable non-controlling interest     25  
Balance, March 31, 2025   $ (2,428 )

 

16. Stockholders’ equity:

 

(a) Common Stock: During each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company issued 149,600 shares at par value of $0.0001 to Costamare Services pursuant to the Services Agreement (Note 3). The fair value of such shares was calculated based on the closing trading price at the date of issuance. There were no share-based payment awards outstanding during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025.

20. Taxes:

 

Under the laws of the countries of incorporation for the vessel-owning companies and/or of the countries of registration of the vessels, the companies are not subject to tax on international shipping income; however, they are subject to registration and tonnage taxes, which are included in Vessel operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The Company believes that its subsidiaries that are engaged in the dry bulk operating platform business and in the sale and leaseback business are not subject to tax on their income in their respective countries of incorporation.

 

The subsidiaries of the Company with vessels that have called on the United States during the relevant year of operation are obliged to file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service. The applicable tax is 50% of 4% of U.S.-related gross transportation income unless an exemption applies. Management believes that, based on current legislation, the relevant companies are entitled to an exemption under Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Subsidiaries of the Company may also be subject to tax in certain jurisdictions with respect to the shipping income from vessels that trade to such jurisdictions unless an exception applies under the relevant Double Taxation Agreement.

 

21. Derivatives:

 

(a) Interest rate swaps and interest rate caps that meet the criteria for hedge accounting: The Company manages its exposure to floating interest rates and foreign currencies by entering into interest rate swaps, interest rate caps and cross-currency rate swap agreements with varying start and maturity dates.

 

The interest rate swaps are designed to hedge the variability of interest cash flows arising from floating rate debt, attributable to movements in three-month or six-month SOFR. According to the Company’s Risk Management Accounting Policy, after putting in place the formal documentation at the inception of the hedging relationship, as required by ASC 815, these interest rate derivatives instruments qualified for hedge accounting. The change in the fair value of the interest rate derivative instruments that qualified for hedge accounting is recorded in “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings and is presented in Interest and finance costs. The change in the fair value of the interest rate derivative instruments that did not qualify for hedge accounting is recorded in Gain / (Loss) on derivative instruments.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2024, three NML subsidiaries entered into three interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $33,683, which met hedge accounting criteria according to ASC 815 related to the loans discussed in Notes 10.A.28 and 10.A.29. During the same period and pursuant to the partial prepayment of the loan discussed in note 10.A.29 the NML subsidiary terminated its interest rate swap agreement.

 

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company terminated the interest rate cap related to the loan discussed in Note 10.A.5, amended the interest rate cap related to the loan discussed in Note 10.A.6 and received the aggregate amount of $777, which is included in Gain on derivative instruments, net in the accompanying 2024 statement of income.

At December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025, the Company had interest rate swap agreements and interest rate cap agreements with an outstanding notional amount of $805,028 and $762,704, respectively. The fair value of these derivatives outstanding as at December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025 amounted to an asset of $31,645 and a net asset of $24,112, respectively, and these are included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The maturity of these derivatives range between June 2026 and March 2031.

 

The estimated net amount that is expected to be reclassified within the next 12 months from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income / (Loss) to earnings in respect of the settlements on interest rate swap and interest rate cap amounts to $8,940.

 

(b) Cross currency swaps that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting: As of March 31, 2025, the notional amount of the two cross-currency swaps was $122,375 in the aggregate. The principal terms of the two cross-currency swap agreements are as follows:

22. Financial Instruments:

 

(a) Interest rate risk: The Company’s interest rates and loan repayment terms are described in Note 10.

 

(b) Concentration of credit risk: Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, margin deposits, accounts receivable, net (included in current and non-current assets), net investment in sales type leases, investment in leaseback vessels (Note 11 (b)) and derivative contracts (interest rate swaps, interest rate caps, cross-currency rate swaps, foreign currency contracts, FX option, FFAs, bunkers swap agreements and EUA futures). The Company places its cash and cash equivalents, consisting mostly of deposits, with established financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of those financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to its derivative instruments; however, the Company limits its exposure by diversifying among counterparties with high credit ratings. The Company limits its credit risk with accounts receivable and receivables from sales type leases by performing ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ and investees’ financial condition, receives charter hires in advance and generally does not require collateral for its accounts receivable. For investments in leaseback vessels the Company is exposed to a limited degree of credit risk since through this type of arrangements the receivable amounts are secured by the legal ownership on each of the vessels acquired. Credit risk in leaseback vessels is managed through setting receivable amounts appropriate for each vessel based on information obtained from the vessel’s third-party independent valuations and the counterparties’ lending history. In addition, the Company follows standardized established policies which include monitoring of the counterparties’ financial performance, debt covenants (including vessels values), and shipping industry trends.

 

(c) Fair value: The carrying amounts reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of short-term investments and accounts payable, approximate their respective fair values due to the short maturity of these instruments. The fair value of long-term bank loans with variable interest rates and investment in leaseback vessels with variable interest rates approximates the recorded values, generally due to their variable interest rates. The fair value of other financing arrangements with fixed interest rates discussed in Note 10.B and the term loan with fixed interest rates discussed in Note 10.A.2, the fair value of investment in leaseback vessels with fixed interest rate discussed in Notes 11(b)(ii)(9), 11(b)(ii)(10), 11(b)(ii)(12), 11(b)(ii)(24), 11(b)(ii)(26) and 11(b)(ii)(27), the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements, the cross-currency rate swap agreements, the interest rate cap agreements, the foreign currency agreements, the FX option, the FFAs, the bunker swap agreements and EUA futures discussed in Note 21 are determined through Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as defined in FASB guidance for Fair Value Measurements and are derived principally from publicly available market data and in case there is no such data available, interest rates, yield curves and other items that allow value to be determined.

 

The fair value of other financing arrangements with fixed interest rates discussed in Note 10.B determined through Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2025, amounted to $525,271 in the aggregate ($528,232 in the aggregate at December 31, 2024). The fair value of the term loan with fixed interest rates discussed in Note 10.A.2, determined through Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2025, amounted to $97,639 ($99,260 at December 31, 2024). The fair value of investment in leaseback vessels with fixed rate discussed in Notes 11(b)(ii)(9), 11(b)(ii)(10), 11(b)(ii)(12), 11(b)(ii)(24), 11(b)(ii)(26) and 11(b)(ii)(27) determined through Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2025, amounted to $73,945 ($74,510 at December 31, 2024). The fair value of the Company’s other financing arrangements (Note 10.B) and the term loan with fixed interest rates discussed in Note 10.A.2 and investment in leaseback vessels discussed in Notes 11(b)(ii)(9), 11(b)(ii)(10), 11(b)(ii)(12), 11(b)(ii)(24), 11(b)(ii)(26) and 11(b)(ii)(27), are estimated based on the future swap curves currently available and remaining maturities as well as taking into account the Company’s creditworthiness.

The fair value of the interest rate swap agreements, cross-currency rate swap agreements and interest rate cap agreements discussed in Note 21(a) equates to the amount that would be paid or received by the Company to cancel the agreements. As at December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025, the fair value of these derivative instruments in aggregate amounted to a net asset of $13,258 and a net asset of $9,587, respectively.

 

The fair value of the forward currency contracts and the FX option discussed in Note 21(c) and the forward freight agreements, the EUA futures and bunker swap agreements discussed in Note 21(d) determined through Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as at December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025, amounted to a net liability of $20,664 and a net asset of $1,308, respectively.
