TAMPA, Fla. –
Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc. (NYSE: OSG) (the “Company” or “OSG”), a provider of energy transportation services for crude oil and petroleum products in the U.S. Flag markets, today reported results for the first quarter of 2020.
Highlights
- Net income for the first quarter 2020 was $25.1 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, compared with net income of $3.2 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, for the first quarter 2019. The increase was driven primarily by the gain on termination of a pre-existing arrangement related to the acquisition of ATC recorded during the first quarter of 2020 and an increase in revenues.
- Shipping revenues for the first quarter 2020 were $100.9 million, up 15.0% compared with the first quarter 2019.
- Time charter equivalent (TCE) revenues(A), a non-GAAP measure, for the first quarter 2020 were $97.1 million, up 17.3% compared with the first quarter 2019.
- First quarter 2020 Adjusted EBITDA(B), a non-GAAP measure, was $52.8 million, up 123.7% from $23.6 million in the first quarter 2019.
- Total cash(C) was $101.5 million as of March 31, 2020.
- On March 12, 2020, subsidiaries of the Company completed the purchase of three U.S.-flagged crude oil carrier vessels, the Alaskan Explorer, Alaskan Legend and Alaskan Navigator, and have entered into a bareboat charter with BP for a fourth vessel, the Alaskan Frontier, currently in layup. In connection with these transactions, OSG also completed the acquisition of Alaska Tanker Company LLC (ATC), making ATC a wholly owned subsidiary of OSG.
- On March 26, 2020, one of the Company’s subsidiaries, OSG 204 LLC, closed on a $33.2 million 5-year term loan with Wintrust Commercial Finance and other syndicate lenders to finance a new 204,000 barrel U.S. Flag oil and chemical ATB barge, which is scheduled to be delivered in May 2020.
Sam Norton, President and CEO, stated, “We are pleased that the results we have announced today give credence to the narrative of emerging strength in our businesses that we have been speaking of in recent quarters. The deep book of time charters which we entered into at the end of last year has provided considerable insulation from exposure to the current market turmoil that has followed the outbreak of COVID-19, as well as from the extraordinary drop in transportation fuel demand affecting both crude oil and refined product pricing.”
Mr. Norton added, “Our tankers, niche businesses and remaining ATB’s operated at close to 100% utilization rates throughout the first quarter, producing solid results. With the ATC vessels also beginning to contribute, and recent financings having significantly strengthened our liquidity, OSG is now well positioned to confront the heightened uncertainty occasioned by the impact of COVID-19 on both our operations as well as on the markets that we serve.”

First Quarter 2020 Results
Shipping revenues were $100.9 million for the quarter, up 15.0% compared with the first quarter of 2019. TCE revenues for the first quarter of 2020 were $97.1 million, an increase of $14.3 million, or 17.3%, compared with the first quarter of 2019. The increase in shipping and TCE revenues primarily resulted from (a) the addition of one MR tanker, Overseas Key West, two Marshall Islands flagged MR tankers, Overseas Gulf Coast and Overseas Sun Coast, and three crude oil tankers, which were acquired on March 12, 2020, Alaskan Explorer, Alaskan Legend and Alaskan Navigator, to our fleet (b) an increase in average daily rates earned by our fleet and (c) decreased spot market exposure. The increase was offset by two fewer ATBs in our fleet during the first quarter of 2020 compared to the first quarter of 2019.
Operating income for the first quarter of 2020 was $37.5 million compared to operating income of $9.7 million in the first quarter of 2019. The increase was driven primarily by the gain on termination of a pre-existing arrangement related to the acquisition of ATC recorded during the first quarter of 2020 and an increase in revenues.
Net income for the first quarter 2020 was $25.1 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, compared with net income of $3.2 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, for the first quarter 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA was $52.8 million for the quarter, an increase of $29.2 million compared with the first quarter of 2019.

Reconciliation to Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, the following non-GAAP measures provide investors with additional information that will better enable them to evaluate the Company’s performance. Accordingly, these non-GAAP measures are intended to provide supplemental information, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared with GAAP.
(A) Time Charter Equivalent (TCE) Revenues
Consistent with general practice in the shipping industry, the Company uses TCE revenues, which represents shipping revenues less voyage expenses, as a measure to compare revenue generated from a voyage charter to revenue generated from a time charter. TCE revenues, a non-GAAP measure, provides additional meaningful information in conjunction with shipping revenues, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, because it assists Company management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of its vessels and in evaluating their financial performance. Reconciliation of TCE revenues of the segments to shipping revenues as reported in the consolidated statements of operations follows:

Vessel Operating Contribution
Vessel operating contribution, a non-GAAP measure, is TCE revenues minus vessel expenses and charter hire expenses.
Our “niche market activities”, which include Delaware Bay lightering, MSP vessels and shuttle tankers, continue to provide a stable operating platform underlying our total US Flag operations. These vessels’ operations are insulated from the forces affecting the broader Jones Act market.
The following table sets forth the contribution of our vessels:

(B) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA represents net income/(loss) before interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA consists of EBITDA adjusted to exclude amortization classified in charter hire expenses, interest expense classified in charter hire expenses, loss/(gain) on disposal of vessels and other property, including impairments, net, non-cash stock based compensation expense and loss on repurchases and extinguishment of debt and the impact of other items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent, and should not be a substitute for, net income/(loss) or cash flows from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Some of the limitations are: (i) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and (iii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt. While EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used as a measure of operating results and performance, neither of them is necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation. The following table reconciles net income/(loss) as reflected in the consolidated statements of operations, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.
