Results of Operations for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015 and 2014
For the second quarter of 2015, the Company reported a net loss of $27,508,300 or $0.73 per share, based on a weighted average of 37,639,352 basic and diluted shares outstanding. In the comparable second quarter of 2014, the Company reported a net loss of $44,660,059 or $2.61 per share, based on a weighted average of 17,079,991 basic and diluted shares outstanding.
Gross time and voyage charter revenues in the quarter ended June 30, 2015 were $23,853,039, compared with $44,194,434 recorded in the comparable quarter in 2014. The decrease in revenue is attributable to lower charter rates earned by the fleet, reduced available days due to drydocking of an increased number of vessels and the sale of one vessel, the M/V Kite, in the quarter ended June 30, 2015. Brokerage commissions incurred on revenues earned in the quarters ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were $1,195,667 and $1,814,375, respectively. Net revenues during the quarters ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, were $22,657,372 and $42,380,059, respectively.
Total operating expenses for the Company in the quarter ended June 30, 2015 were $47,011,056 compared with $50,489,321 recorded for the Company in the comparable quarter of 2014. The decrease in operating expenses resulted primarily from a reduction in the Depreciation expense of $8,455,446 due to lower vessel valuation upon adoption of Fresh-Start Accounting , offset by additional charter hire expense of $1,233,132 and loss on sale of M/V Kite $5,696,675 in the second quarter of 2015.
Results of Operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 and 2014
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company reported a net loss of $48,175,364 or $1.28 per share, based on a weighted average of 37,583,491 basic and diluted shares outstanding. In the comparable period of 2014, the Company reported a net loss of $67,249,945 or $3.94 per share, based on a weighted average of 17,080,079 basic and diluted shares outstanding.
Gross time and voyage charter revenues in the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 were $51,564,828, compared with $92,054,896 recorded in the comparable period in 2014. The decrease in revenue is attributable to lower charter rates earned by the fleet, reduced available days due to drydocking of an increased number of vessels and the sale of one vessel, the M/V Kite in the quarter ended June 30, 2015. Brokerage commissions incurred on revenues earned in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were $2,576,290 and $3,879,446, respectively. Net revenues during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, were $48,988,538 and $88,175,450, respectively.
Total operating expenses for the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were $90,850,075 compared with $99,104,863 recorded for the Company in the comparable period of 2014. The decrease in operating expenses resulted primarily from a reduction in the Depreciation expense of approximately $16,976,088 due to lower vessel value upon adoption of Fresh-Start Accounting on October 15, 2014, offset by higher charter hire expense of $2,449,096, loss on sale of the M/V Kite of $5,696,675 and higher general and administrative expenses primarily due to increase in non cash compensation expense and adviser's fees for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash used in operating activities during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 was $23,328,501, compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $593,725 during the corresponding six-month period ended June 30, 2014. The decrease is primarily due to lower charter rates on time charter renewals and higher drydock expenditures.
Net cash provided by investing activities during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, was $8,635,658, compared with net cash used in investing activities of $186,201 during the corresponding six-month period ended June 30, 2014. The increase is primarily due to proceeds of $4,235,542 from the sale of the M/V Kite and proceeds of $5,807,917 from the sale of KLC shares.
Net cash provided by financing activities during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 was $1,901,994, compared with none during the corresponding six-month period ended June 30, 2014. We borrowed $15,000,000 from our revolver credit facility and we repaid $11,812,500 toward our term loan.
As of June 30, 2015, our cash balance was $27,184,438, compared to a cash balance of $39,975,287 at December 31, 2014.
As of June 30, 2015, the Company's debt consisted of $228,187,500 in term loans and debt discount of $4,068,755. The Company availability under the revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2015 is $35 million.
Capital Expenditures and Drydocking
Our capital expenditures relate to the purchase of vessels and capital improvements to our vessels which are expected to enhance the revenue earning capabilities and safety of these vessels.
In addition to acquisitions that we may undertake in future periods, the other major capital expenditures include funding the Company's program of regularly scheduled drydocking necessary to comply with international shipping standards and environmental laws and regulations. Although the Company has some flexibility regarding the timing of its drydocking, the costs are relatively predictable. Management anticipates that vessels are to be drydocked every two and a half years. We anticipate that this process of recertification will require us to reposition these vessels from a discharge port to shipyard facilities, which will reduce our available days and operating days during that period.
Drydocking costs incurred are deferred and amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the period through the date of the next scheduled drydocking for those vessels. Fourteen vessels completed drydocking in the six months ended June 30, 2015 while one other vessel was still in drydock as of June 30, 2015. We incurred $8,505,455 in drydocking related costs during the six month period ended June 30, 2015. Three vessels completed drydocking in the six months ended June 30, 2014 while one other vessel was still in drydocking as of June 30, 2014 and we incurred $2,391,412 in drydocking related costs. The following table represents certain information about the estimated costs for anticipated vessel drydockings in the next four quarters, along with the anticipated off-hire days:
Quarter Ending | Off-hire Days(1) | Projected Costs(2) (in millions) | |||
September 30, 2015 | 44 | $1.30 | |||
December 31, 2015 | - | - | |||
March 31, 2016 | 88 | $2.60 | |||
June 30, 2016 | 44 | $1.30 | |||
(1)Actual duration of drydocking will vary based on the condition of the vessel, yard schedules and other factors. We assumed 22 off-hire days for each drydock. (2)Actual costs will vary based on various factors, including where the drydockings are actually performed. |

Glossary of Terms:
Ownership days: The Company defines ownership days as the aggregate number of days in a period during which each vessel in its fleet has been owned. Ownership days are an indicator of the size of the fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of expenses that is recorded during a period.
Chartered-in under operating lease days: The Company defines chartered-in under operating lease days as the aggregate number of days in a period during which the Company chartered-in vessels.
Available days: The Company defines available days as the number of ownership days less the aggregate number of days that its vessels are off-hire due to vessel familiarization upon acquisition, scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades or special surveys and the aggregate amount of time that we spend positioning our vessels. The shipping industry uses available days to measure the number of days in a period during which vessels should be capable of generating revenues.
Operating days: The Company defines operating days as the number of its available days in a period less the aggregate number of days that the vessels are off-hire due to any reason, including unforeseen circumstances. The shipping industry uses operating days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period during which vessels actually generate revenues.
Fleet utilization: We calculate fleet utilization by dividing the number of our operating days during a period by the number of our available days during the period. The shipping industry uses fleet utilization to measure a company's efficiency in finding suitable employment for its vessels and minimizing the amount of days that its vessels are off-hire for reasons other than scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades, special surveys or vessel positioning. Our fleet continues to perform at high utilization rates.
