Segment Information:


In the second quarter of 2023, the Company established its LPG carrier operations through the acquisition of two LPG carrier vessels. With effect from the second quarter of 2024, the Company operated in two reportable segments: (i) the Handysize tanker segment and (ii) the LPG carrier segment, each on a continued operations basis. Following the Robin Spin-Off of the Handysize tanker vessel (Note 1) and the acquisition of the new MR (MR2 class) tanker vessel (Note 6 and 18(f)), the former Handysize segment was renamed “MR (Handysize/MR2)” to reflect both the updated fleet composition and strategic continuity of the segment. The reportable segments reflect the internal organization of the Company and the way the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who is the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, reviews the operating results and allocates capital within the Company. The CODM assesses segment performance using key financial measures, including revenues, operating expenses, segment operating income and net income. These metrics help the CODM assess segment profitability, optimize fleet deployment, control costs and determine capital allocation. Based on these segment performance trends, the CODM makes resource allocation decisions such as adjusting chartering strategies, prioritizing fleet expansion or disposals, and optimizing cost efficiencies to enhance profitability and overall segment performance. Further, the transport of refined petroleum products (carried by MR (Handysize/MR2) tanker vessels) and liquefied petroleum gas (carried by LPG carriers) has different characteristics. In addition, the nature of trade, trading routes, charterers and cargo handling of liquefied petroleum gas and  refined petroleum products differs.



The table below presents information about the Company’s reportable segments comprising its continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2025. The accounting policies followed in the preparation of the reportable segments are the same as those followed in the preparation of the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Segment results are evaluated based on income from operations.
