Press Release: Costamare Bulkers Holdings Limited Reports Results for the Third Quarter and Nine-Month Period Ended September 30, 2025

Dow Jones11-14

MONACO, Nov. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Costamare Bulkers Holdings Limited ("Costamare Bulkers" or the "Company") (NYSE: CMDB) today reported unaudited financial results for the third quarter and nine-month period ended September 30, 2025.

This earnings release focuses on the financial results and management's discussion and analysis for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, reflecting the Company's performance during its first full quarter as an independent, publicly traded company.

Costamare Bulkers had no operating activity during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 and remained a wholly-owned subsidiary of Costamare Inc. ("Costamare"), a New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") listed company, until May 6, 2025, when it became an independent, publicly traded company on NYSE through a spin-off from Costamare.

Costamare Bulkers had nominal operations from January 1, 2025 until late March 2025, when Costamare transferred to it the entities engaged in the dry bulk business, which own, have owned, or were formed with the intention to own dry bulk vessels. The results of these entities are included in Costamare Bulkers' consolidated statement of operations for the three- and nine- month period ended September 30, 2025. On May 6, 2025, Costamare Bulkers also acquired from Costamare and a minority shareholder Costamare Bulkers Inc. ("CBI"), a dry bulk operating platform, whose results are included from that date forward. No comparative figures are presented for the three- and nine- month period ended September 30, 2024, as Costamare Bulkers had no operations during that time and all amounts would have been nil.

          -- The charter-out of four Company-owned Supramax vessels for a 
             period of four to six months.

      parties and the vessels operations' schedule.As of November 13, 2025, the 
      following transfers have been effected or have been agreed to become 
      effected:

______________

(1) Adjusted Net Income and respective per share figures are non-GAAP measures and should not be used in isolation or as substitutes for Costamare Bulkers financial results presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). For the definition and reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, please refer to Exhibit I.

(2) Liquidity includes Cash (as defined in footnote 4) plus $84.7 million of available undrawn funds from one hunting license facility as of September 30, 2025.

(3) Long-term debt including non-current portion.

(4) Cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) of $184.5 million plus margin deposits of $21.3 million relating mainly to our forward freight agreements ("FFAs") and bunker swaps.

(5) Net debt is equal to Debt (as defined in footnote 3) minus Cash (as defined in footnote 4).

(6) On back-to-back terms with the original charterparties.

(7) On back-to-back terms with the original agreements.

(8) As of November 13, 2025 and excluding vessels agreed to be novated or sub-chartered on back-to-back terms pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement.

(9) As of November 13, 2025.

Mr. Gregory Zikos, Chief Executive Officer of Costamare Bulkers Holdings Limited, commented:

"This is the first full quarter, during which the Company reports financial results as an independent, publicly traded entity.

During the quarter Costamare Bulkers generated net income of $7.4 million. With total cash of about $206 million and debt of ca. $160 million, the Company is in a net debt negative position, owning a fleet of 31 dry bulk vessels with an average age of approximately 13 years and an average size of ca. 91,700 DWT.

As previously announced, in September we entered into a Strategic Cooperation Agreement with Cargill whereby, among other things, we agreed to gradually transfer to Cargill the majority of our trading book. We have effectively transferred our entire forward cargo book and FFA positions, as well as the majority of the chartered-in vessels. We intend to maintain our operating platform as an integral part of our business mainly focusing on Kamsarmaxes with the goal to optimize earnings and tightly manage downside exposure.

We are progressing on our strategy to divest older and smaller tonnage and replacing it with younger and bigger-sized vessels. During the quarter we concluded the disposals of five Handysize ships and one Supramax vessel and we accepted delivery of one Capesize.

Regarding the market, the Capesize index retreated from late July by the end of August due to excess tonnage and softer Brazil flows, before rebounding in late September on the back of end-of-quarter Australia iron ore and Pacific weather disruptions. In October, China's plan to impose reciprocal port restrictions on US-linked vessels triggered a brief spike in FFAs despite limited physical market impact. However, following the 30 October US--China meeting, the measures were suspended for a year under a trade de-escalation framework, leading Capes FFAs to ease. Panamax rates were lifted as well during October; however as measures were suspended they have since retreated."

(1) Accrued charter revenue represents the difference between cash received during the period and revenue recognized during the period on a straight-line basis at the charter's average rate. In the early years of a charter with escalating charter rates, voyage revenue will exceed cash received during the period and during the last years of such charter cash received will exceed revenue recognized on a straight-line basis. The reverse is true for charters with descending rates.

(2) Total voyage revenue adjusted on a cash basis represents Total voyage revenue after adjusting for non-cash "Accrued charter revenue" recorded under charters with escalating or descending charter rates. However, Total voyage revenue adjusted on a cash basis is not a recognized measurement under U.S. GAAP. We believe that the presentation of Total voyage revenue adjusted on a cash basis is useful to investors because it presents the charter revenue for the relevant period based on the then-current daily charter rates.

(3) Adjusted Net Income / (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings / (Losses) per Share are non-GAAP measures. Refer to the reconciliation of Net Income / (Loss) to Adjusted Net Income / (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings / (Losses) per Share.

Non-GAAP Measures

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures used in managing the business may provide users of these financial measures additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures can provide additional meaningful reflection of underlying trends of the business because they provide a comparison of historical information that excludes certain items that impact the overall comparability. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company's performance. The tables below set out supplemental financial data and corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures for the relevant periods. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, voyage revenue, net income, or other measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures include (i) Voyage revenue adjusted on a cash basis (reconciled above), (ii) Adjusted Net Income / (Loss) and (iii) Adjusted Earnings / (Losses) per Share.

Adjusted Net Income / (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings / (Losses) per Share represent Net Income / (Loss) before non-cash "Accrued charter revenue" recorded under charters with escalating or descending charter rates, deferred charter-in expense, loss on vessel held for sale, loss on sale of vessels, non-recurring, non-cash write-off of loan deferred financing costs, general and administrative expenses - non-cash component and gain on derivative instruments, excluding realized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments. "Accrued charter revenue" is attributed to the timing difference between the revenue recognition and the cash collection. However, Adjusted Net Income / (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings / (Losses) per Share are not recognized measurements under U.S. GAAP. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Net Income / (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings / (Losses) per Share are useful to investors because they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. We also believe that Adjusted Net Income / (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings / (Losses) per Share are useful in evaluating our ability to service additional debt and make capital expenditures. In addition, we believe that Adjusted Net Income / (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings / (Losses) per Share are useful in evaluating our operating performance and liquidity position compared to that of other companies in our industry because the calculation of Adjusted Net Income / (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings / (Losses) per Share generally eliminates the effects of the accounting effects of certain hedging instruments and other accounting treatments, items which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance and liquidity. In evaluating Adjusted Net Income / (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings / (Losses) per Share, 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. Our presentation of Adjusted Net Income / (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings / (Losses) per Share should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

(1) Items to consider for comparability, when prior period figures are presented, include gains and charges. Gains positively impacting Net Income / (Loss) are reflected as deductions to Adjusted Net Income / (Loss). Charges negatively impacting Net Income / (Loss) are reflected as increases to Adjusted Net Income / (Loss).

((*) () Since late March 2025, when Costamare transferred to Costamare Bulkers the entities engaged in the dry bulk business.

(1) We calculate utilization of our owned dry bulk fleet (including vessels chartered-in by CBI) by dividing (i) the aggregate number of our on-hire days and ballast days (excluding dry dock ballast days) in a period of our owned dry bulk fleet by (ii) the number of our available days (owned dry bulk fleet) during such period. We use the following definitions in our calculation of utilization of owned dry bulk fleet:

   -- On-hire days. We define on-hire days as the total days that a vessel was 
      on-hire during a period. 
 
   -- Ballast days (excluding dry dock ballast days). We define ballast days 
      (excluding dry dock ballast days) during a period, as the total number of 
      days that a vessel is not on-hire, but is conducting ordinary ship 
      operations (other than dry dock ballast days) which includes 
      repositioning from a discharging port to a loading port, sailing to a 
      port for the conclusion of a prospective sale of a vessel or a change of 
      the technical manager of a vessel. 
 
   -- Available days. We define available days as the number of our ownership 
      days of our owned dry bulk fleet during a period less the aggregate 
      number of dry dock days and dry dock ballast days during such period. We 
      use the following definitions in our calculation of available days (owned 
      dry bulk fleet): 
 
          -- Dry dock days. We define dry dock days as the days during a period 
             that a vessel underwent scheduled repairs or repairs under 
             guarantee, vessel upgrades, scheduled dry-docking or special 
             surveys. 
 
          -- Dry dock ballast days. We define dry dock ballast days as the 
             total days during a period that a vessel spends sailing to and 
             from a shipyard for scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, 
             vessel upgrades, scheduled dry-docking or special surveys. 

Results of Operations

Three-month period ended September 30, 2025

The discussion below reflects the third quarter 2025 consolidated financial results of Costamare Bulkers Holdings Limited ("Costamare Bulkers"). No comparative figures are presented for the prior period, as Costamare Bulkers had no operations during that time and all amounts would have been nil.

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, we had an average of 35.5 vessels in our owned fleet. Furthermore, during the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, we chartered-in an average of 44.7 third-party dry bulk vessels.

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, we acquired and accepted delivery of the secondhand dry bulk vessels Imperator and Gorgo with an aggregate DWT capacity of 252,885, and we sold the vessels Acuity, Verity, Bernis, Equity, Pythias and Gorgo with an aggregate DWT capacity of 281,897.

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, our fleet ownership days totaled 3,270. Ownership days are one of the primary drivers of voyage revenue and vessels' operating expenses and represent the aggregate number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet is owned.

Total Voyage Revenue

Total voyage revenue was $222.9 million during the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, and mainly includes voyage revenue earned by the charter-out activities of both owned and chartered-in vessels and contractual reimbursements from certain of our charterers for EU Emissions Allowances ("EUAs") and Fuel EU Maritime penalties.

Voyage Expenses

Voyage expenses were $65.8 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025. Voyage expenses mainly include (i) fuel consumption, (ii) third-party commissions, (iii) port expenses, (iv) canal tolls and (v) EUAs and Fuel EU Maritime expenses; however, a significant portion of EUAs and Fuel EU Maritime expenses are contractually reimbursed by the charterers, as discussed in "Total Voyage Revenue", mitigating the net expenses impact.

Charter-in Hire Expenses

Charter-in hire expenses were $117.4 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, relating to the chartering-in of third-party dry bulk vessels.

Voyage Expenses -- related parties

Voyage expenses -- related parties were $3.0 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025. Voyage expenses -- related parties represent (i) fees of 1.25%, in the aggregate, on voyage revenues earned by our owned fleet charged by a related manager and a related service provider and (ii) address commissions on certain charter-out agreements payable to a related agent. This commission is subsequently paid in full on a back-to-back basis by the related agent to its respective third-party clients with no benefit for the related agent.

Vessels' Operating Expenses

Vessels' operating expenses were $19.3 million during the three-month period ended September 30, 2025. Daily vessels' operating expenses were $5,899 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025. Daily operating expenses are calculated as vessels' operating expenses for the period over the ownership days of the period.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were $3.3 million during the three-month period ended September 30, 2025 and include an amount of $0.7 million that was paid to a related service provider.

Management and Agency Fees -- related parties

Management fees charged by our related party managers were $3.9 million during the three-month period ended September 30, 2025. The amounts charged by our related party managers include amounts paid to third party managers of $0.8 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025. Furthermore, during the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, agency fees of $2.6 million, in aggregate, were charged by four related agents.

General and Administrative Expenses -- non-cash component

General and administrative expenses - non-cash component for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025 amounted to $0.9 million, representing the value of the shares issued to a related service provider on September 30, 2025.

Amortization of Dry-Docking and Special Survey Costs

Amortization of deferred dry-docking and special survey costs was $1.7 million during the three-month period ended September 30, 2025. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, no vessel underwent her dry-docking and special survey.

Depreciation

Depreciation expense for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025 was $9.3 million.

Loss on Sale of Vessels

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, we recorded an aggregate loss of $3.8 million from the sale of the dry bulk vessels Acuity, Verity, Equity and Gorgo. Furthermore, we delivered to their new owners the dry-bulk vessels Pythias and Bernis (both vessels were classified as vessels held for sale during the second quarter of 2025).

Loss on Vessel Held for Sale

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, the dry bulk vessel Parity was classified as vessel held for sale and we recorded a loss on vessel held for sale of $1.1 million, which resulted from its estimated fair value measurement less costs to sell.

Interest Income

Interest income amounted to $1.0 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025.

Interest and Finance Costs

Interest and finance costs were $3.2 million during the three-month period ended September 30, 2025. Interest and finance costs include mainly interest expense on our bank loans, amortization of deferred financing costs and bank charges.

Gain on Derivative Instruments, net

As of September 30, 2025, we hold derivative financial instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting. The change in the fair value of each derivative instrument that does not qualify for hedge accounting is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

As of September 30, 2025, the fair value of these instruments, in aggregate, amounted to a net liability of $1.5 million. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, the change in the fair value (fair value as of September 30, 2025 compared to fair value as of June 30, 2025) of the derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting, including the realized components of such derivative instruments during the period, resulted in a net gain of $18.5 million, which has been included in Gain on Derivative Instruments, net.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025 was $31.9 million. Net cash flows are mainly affected by (i) the working capital position, excluding the current portion of long-term debt and the accrued charter revenue (representing the difference between cash received in that period and revenue recognized on a straight-line basis), (ii) the net cash from operations, (iii) the dry-docking and special survey costs and (iv) the interest payments (including interest derivatives net receipts).

Net Cash Provided by Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $29.3 million in the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, which mainly consisted of proceeds we received from the sale of the dry bulk vessels Acuity, Verity, Bernis, Equity, Pythias and Gorgo; partly offset by (i) the payments for the acquisition of the secondhand dry bulk vessels Gorgo and Imperator and (ii) payments for upgrades for certain of our dry bulk vessels.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $7.8 million in the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, which mainly consisted of $7.7 million net payments relating to our debt financing agreements (including proceeds of $15.3 million we received from one debt financing agreement).

Liquidity

Cash and cash equivalents

As of September 30, 2025, we had Cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) of $184.5 million and $21.3 million in margin deposits in relation to our FFAs, bunker swaps and EUA futures. Including the $84.7 million of available undrawn funds from our hunting license facility, our total liquidity as of September 30, 2025 was approximately $290.5 million.
