    • Cash and cash equivalents including time deposits of $212.2 million as of June 30, 2025, which is about 80% higher than our current market capitalization of about $120 million.

    Second Quarter 2025 Results:

    • Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to $36.3 million, a decrease of $10.7 million, or 22.8%, compared to revenues of $47.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to a decrease in the level of tanker market rates. During the three months ended June 30, 2025 average daily spot rates for product and suezmax tankers were $9,500 lower and about $1,000 higher, respectively, when compared to the same period of last year. In addition for the three months ended June 30, 2025, average daily one-year time charter rates for product and suezmax tankers were about $12,000 and 18,000 lower compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024.
    • Voyage expenses and vessels' operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025 were $10.7 million and $8.4 million, respectively, compared to $17.1 million and $6.5 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The $6.4 million decrease in voyage expenses is mainly attributed to increased time charter activity leading to a decline in spot days by 36.4%. The $1.9 million increase in vessels' operating expenses is primarily due to the increased size of our fleet by an average of 3.8 vessels between the two periods.
    • Drydocking costs for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were $1.7 million and nil, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, one suezmax tanker and one supramax drybulk carrier underwent drydocking, whereas during the three months ended June 30, 2024 no vessel underwent drydocking.
    • General and administrative costs for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were $1.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The $0.4 million decrease is primarily due to a reduction in stock-based compensation costs.
    • Depreciation for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $5.7 million and $4.2 million, respectively. The change is attributable to the increase in the average number of vessels in our fleet.
    • Management fees for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The change is attributable to the increase in the average number of vessels in our fleet.
    • Interest and finance costs for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were $0.8 million and $0.006 million, respectively. The $0.8 million of costs for the three months ended June 30, 2025 relate mainly to accrued interest expense – related party in connection with our last nine vessel acquisitions for which the purchase agreement allowed payment for the vessels to be made within one year from the date of the purchase agreement. For accounting purposes, the outstanding balances payable for these nine vessels had to be allocated between principal and imputed interest up until vessel payment, although no interest was contractually charged by the sellers. The final balances paid remained the same as the originally agreed purchase prices.
    • Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $2.3 million as compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The $1.1 million increase is mainly attributed to a higher amount of funds placed under time deposits.
    • Interest income – related party for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was nil as compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is mainly attributed to the $0.8 million of accrued interest income – related party for the three months ended June 30, 2024 in connection with the $38.7 million of the sale price of the Aframax tanker Afrapearl II (ex. Stealth Berana). The balance was collected in July 2024, thus the balance for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was nil.
    • Foreign exchange (loss)/gain for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was a gain of $3.0 million as compared to a loss of $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The $3.0 million foreign exchange gain for the three months ended June 30, 2025, is mainly attributed to the strengthening of the euro currency against the dollar at the end of the three months ended June 30, 2025 when compared to the respective currency values at the end of the first quarter of 2025. As of June 30, 2025, the Company held a portion of its cash and cash equivalents in Euros.
    • As a result of the above, for the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company reported net income of $12.8 million, compared to net income of $19.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Dividends paid on Series A Preferred Shares amounted to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, basic, for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was 33.3 million. Earnings per share, basic and diluted, for the three months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to $0.36 and $0.35, respectively, compared to earnings per share, basic and diluted, of $0.64 and $0.56, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
    • Adjusted net income1 was $13.4 million corresponding to an Adjusted EPS1, basic of $0.38 for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to an Adjusted net income of $22.2 million corresponding to an Adjusted EPS, basic, of $0.73 for the same period of last year.
    • EBITDA1 for the three months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to $17.1 million, while Adjusted EBITDA1 for the three months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to $17.7 million.
    • An average of 14.1 vessels were owned by the Company during the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to 10.3 vessels for the same period of 2024.

    Six Months 2025 Results:

    • Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to $68.4 million, a decrease of $19.8 million, or 22.4%, compared to revenues of $88.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to a year to date decline of daily tanker spot and time charter rates.
    • Voyage expenses and vessels' operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were $21.2 million and $15.5 million, respectively, compared to $30.6 million and $12.5 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The $9.4 million decrease in voyage expenses is mainly attributed to a decrease in spot days by 27% as a result of a rise in time charter activity. The $3.0 million increase in vessels' operating expenses was primarily due to the increase in the average number of vessels in our fleet.
    • Drydocking costs for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were $1.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, one suezmax tanker and one supramax drybulk carrier underwent drydocking while in the same period of last year one tanker vessel underwent drydocking.
    • General and administrative costs for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were $2.3 million and $2.7 million, respectively. This change is mainly attributed to the decrease in stock-based compensation costs.
    • Depreciation for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $10.7 million, a $2.5 million increase from $8.2 million for the same period of last year, due to the increase in the average number of our vessels.
    • Interest and finance costs for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were $1.4 million and $0.008 million, respectively. The $1.4 million of costs for the six months ended June 30, 2025 relate mainly to accrued interest expense – related party in connection with our last nine vessel acquisitions for which the purchase agreement allowed vessels for repayment to take place within one year from purchase agreement. For accounting purposes, the outstanding balances payable for these nine vessels had to be allocated between principal and imputed interest up until vessel repayment, although no interest was contractually charged by the sellers. The final balances paid remained the same as the originally agreed purchase prices.
    • Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $4.5 million and $2.3 million, respectively. The increase is mainly attributed to a higher amount of funds placed under time deposits.
    • Interest income – related party for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was nil as compared to $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is mainly attributed to the $1.5 million of accrued interest income – related party for the six months ended June 30, 2024 in connection with the $38.7 million of the sale price of the Aframax tanker Afrapearl II (ex. Stealth Berana). The balance was collected in July 2024, thus the balance for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was nil.
    • Foreign exchange (loss)/gain for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was a gain of $4.7 million as compared to a loss of $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The $4.7 million foreign exchange gain for the six months ended June 30, 2025 is mainly attributed to the strengthening of the euro currency against the dollar at the end of the six months ended June 30, 2025 when compared to the respective currency values at the end of last year. As of June 30, 2025 the Company held a portion of its cash and cash equivalents in Euros.
    • As a result of the above, the Company reported net income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 of $24.1 million, compared to a net income of $36.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The weighted average number of shares outstanding, basic, for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was 33.1 million. Earnings per share, basic and diluted, for the six months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to $0.67 and $0.65, respectively, compared to earnings per share, basic and diluted, of $1.20 and $1.06 for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
    • Adjusted Net Income1 was $25.6 million corresponding to an Adjusted EPS1, basic of $0.72 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to adjusted net income of $39.7 million, or $1.32 Adjusted EPS, basic, for the same period of last year.
    • EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to $31.8 million while Adjusted EBITDA1 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to $33.3 million. Reconciliations of Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income are set forth below.
    • An average of 13.0 vessels were owned by the Company during the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to 10.1 vessels for the same period of 2024.
    • As of June 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents including time deposits amounted to $212.2 million and total debt amounted to nil.

    CEO Harry Vafias Commented:

    "We are proud for completing our recent fleet expansion; this is an important milestone for us. Imperial Petroleum now operates a combined, diversified fleet of nine tankers and ten drybulk carriers- all non – Chinese built vessels. In terms of our financials, we remain profitable, debt free and as of the end of Q2 25' we held about $212 million in cash. In the first half of 2025 we generated $24.1 million of net profit and $42 million of operating cash flow. Market rates for both tankers and drybulk carriers are currently favorable therefore we hope that we will be able to take advantage of the second half of 2025, utilize our fleet at full speed and produce even better results."

    Fleet Data:

    The following key indicators highlight the Company's operating performance during the periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2025.

    FLEET DATAQ2 2024Q2 20256M 20246M 2025

    Fleet operational utilization (7)80.9%83.1%80.7%83.4%
         

    1) Average number of vessels is the number of owned vessels that constituted our fleet for the relevant period, as measured by the sum of the number of days each vessel was a part of our fleet during the period divided by the number of calendar days in that period.

    2) Total calendar days for fleet are the total days the vessels we operated were in our possession for the relevant period including off-hire days associated with major repairs, drydockings or special or intermediate surveys.

    3) Total voyage days for fleet reflect the total days the vessels we operated were in our possession for the relevant period net of off-hire days associated with major repairs, drydockings or special or intermediate surveys.

    4) Fleet utilization is the percentage of time that our vessels were available for revenue generating voyage days, and is determined by dividing voyage days by fleet calendar days for the relevant period.

    5) Total charter days for fleet are the number of voyage days the vessels operated on time or bareboat charters for the relevant period.

    6) Total spot market charter days for fleet are the number of voyage days the vessels operated on spot market charters for the relevant period.

    7) Fleet operational utilization is the percentage of time that our vessels generated revenue and is determined by dividing voyage days excluding idle days by fleet calendar days for the relevant period.

    Reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS:

    Adjusted net income represents net income before impairment loss, net loss on sale of vessel and share based compensation. EBITDA represents net income before interest and finance costs, interest income and depreciation. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest and finance costs, interest income, depreciation, impairment loss, net loss on sale of vessel and share based compensation.

    Adjusted EPS represents Adjusted net income divided by the weighted average number of shares. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS are not recognized measurements under U.S. GAAP. Our calculation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS may not be comparable to that reported by other companies in the shipping or other industries. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Adjusted EPS, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation.

    EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS are included herein because they are a basis, upon which we and our investors assess our financial performance. They allow us to present our performance from period to period on a comparable basis and provide investors with a means of better evaluating and understanding our operating performance. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating our performance.
