Geopolitical volatility and supply chain fragmentation have increased demand for flexible shipping capacity.
Intra-Asia trade is the largest and rapidly growing segment, driven by supply chain dispersion.
Order book for smaller vessels is low, suggesting a tighter market ahead.
High reefer capacity ships are in demand due to growth in refrigerated cargo.

Outstanding debt reduced from $950 million in 2022 to below $700 million by end of 2025, targeting under $600 million.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
