As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, Genco Investments LLC owned 6,103,471 and 5,699,088 shares of Baltic Trading’s Class B Stock, which represented a 13.97% and 24.78% ownership interest in Baltic Trading, respectively, and 70.90% and 83.17% of the aggregate voting power of Baltic Trading’s outstanding shares of voting stock, respectively.

(1) Delivery dates for vessels being delivered in the future are estimates based on guidance received from the sellers.
The Company provides technical services for drybulk vessels purchased by Maritime Equity Partners LLC (“MEP”). Peter C. Georgiopoulos, Chairman of the Board of Directors of GS&T, controls and has a minority interest in MEP. These
services include oversight of crew management, insurance, drydocking, ship operations and financial statement preparation, but do not include chartering services. The services are provided for a fee of $750 per ship per day plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket costs. MEP has the right to cancel provision of the services on 60 days’ notice with payment of a one-year termination fee upon a change in control of the Company. The Company may terminate provision of the services at any time on 60 days’ notice.
Given the current drybulk rate environment, it is probable that the Company will be unable to make required payments under its credit facilities commencing during the quarter ending March 31, 2014 without modifications to or waivers of the terms of these facilities. Moreover, once current waivers expire and are re-measured at March 31, 2014, the Company believes it is probable that the Company will not be in compliance with the maximum leverage ratio covenants and the minimum permitted consolidated interest ratio covenants under its credit facilities. The Company is also subject to minimum cash covenants for which compliance is measured at the end of every fiscal quarter. These minimum cash covenants have not been waived, and the Company believes it is probable that the Company will not be in compliance with such covenants at or after March 31, 2014, and the Company may not be in compliance earlier in the event of sustained weakness in the drybulk shipping sector. The Company’s debt facilities are described further in Note 9 — Debt.
The Company is in discussions with its lenders and expects to seek waivers or modifications to its credit agreements, which, if available, may be subject to conditions, and may also seek to refinance indebtedness, raise additional capital through equity or debt offerings or selling assets (including vessels), reduce or delay capital expenditures, or pursue other restructuring options. Absent such waivers or modifications, if the Company does not comply with such payment obligations or these covenants and fails to cure such non-compliance following applicable notice and expiration of applicable cure periods, the Company would be in default of one or more of its credit facilities. If such a default occurs, the Company may also be in default under the Indenture for the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes, or the 2010 Notes (discussed in Note 10 — Convertible Senior Notes). As a result, some or all of the Company’s indebtedness could be declared immediately due and payable, and alternative sources of financing would need to be sought on terms that may not be favorable to the Company.
In addition, notwithstanding the waiver of certain covenants as described above, for purposes of preparing financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), the Company is required to assess future compliance with the original covenants at all quarterly measurement dates within twelve months from the date of such financial statements. The Company believes it is probable that the Company will not be in compliance with certain covenants at measurement dates within twelve months of March 31, 2013. Accordingly, the outstanding debt under the 2007 Credit Facility, the $253 Million Term Loan Facility and the $100 Million Term Loan Facility (as defined in Note 9 — Debt) was reclassified as a current liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheet beginning March 31, 2013 and remained classified as a current liability as of September 30, 2013. This reclassification does not affect the existing waivers, although there can be no assurance that the Company could obtain further waivers upon their expiration. If the Company fails to comply with its covenants under its credit facilities, the Company may also be in default under the Indenture for the 2010 Notes and its interest rate swaps. Accordingly, the 2010 Notes and one swap previously classified as a long-term liability were likewise reclassified as current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet beginning March 31, 2013 and remained classified as a current liability as of September 30, 2013.
2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which include the accounts of GS&T, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and Baltic Trading, a subsidiary in which the Company owns a majority of the voting interests and exercises control. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of management of the Company, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and operating results have been included in the statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012
10-K”). The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
Vessels, net
Vessels, net is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Included in vessel costs are acquisition costs directly attributable to the acquisition of a vessel and expenditures made to prepare the vessel for its initial voyage. The Company also capitalizes interest costs for a vessel under construction as a cost which is directly attributable to the acquisition of a vessel. Vessels are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, determined to be 25 years from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard. Depreciation expense for vessels for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $33,591 and $33,462, respectively. Depreciation expense for vessels for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $99,432 and $99,646, respectively.
Depreciation expense is calculated based on cost less the estimated residual scrap value. The costs of significant replacements, renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over the shorter of the vessel’s remaining estimated useful life or the estimated life of the renewal or betterment. Undepreciated cost of any asset component being replaced that was acquired after the initial vessel purchase is written off as a component of vessel operating expense. Expenditures for routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Scrap value is estimated by the Company by taking the estimated scrap value of $245/lwt multiplied by the weight of the ship in lightweight tons (lwt).
Deferred revenue
Deferred revenue primarily relates to cash received from charterers prior to it being earned. These amounts are recognized as revenue when earned. Additionally, deferred revenue includes estimated customer claims mainly due to time charter performance issues. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had an accrual of $323 and $407, respectively, related to these estimated customer claims.
Voyage expense recognition
In time charters, spot market-related time charters and pool agreements, operating costs including crew, maintenance and insurance are typically paid by the owner of the vessel and specified voyage costs such as fuel and port charges are paid by the charterer. There are certain other non-specified voyage expenses, such as commissions, which are typically borne by the Company. At the inception of a time charter, the Company records the difference between the cost of bunker fuel delivered by the terminating charterer and the bunker fuel sold to the new charterer as a gain or loss within voyage expenses. These differences in bunkers resulted in net (losses) gains of ($296) and $242 during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $47 and $1,665 during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Additionally, voyage expenses include the cost of bunkers consumed during short-term time charters pursuant to the terms of the time charter agreement.
Noncontrolling interest
Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 reflects the noncontrolling interest’s share of the net loss of Baltic Trading, a subsidiary of the Company, which owns and employs drybulk vessels in the spot market or on spot market-related time charters. The spot market represents immediate chartering of a vessel, usually for single voyages. At September 30, 2013, the noncontrolling interest held an 86.03% economic interest in Baltic Trading while only holding 29.10% of the voting power. At December 31, 2012, the noncontrolling interest held a 75.22% economic interest in Baltic Trading while only holding 16.83% of the voting power.
Income taxes
Pursuant to certain agreements, GS&T technically and commercially manages vessels for Baltic Trading as well as provides technical management of vessels for MEP in exchange for specified fees for these services provided. These services are performed by Genco Management (USA) Limited (“Genco (USA)”), which has elected to be taxed as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes. As such, Genco (USA) is subject to United States federal income tax on its worldwide net income, including the net income derived from providing these services. Genco (USA) has entered into a cost-sharing agreement with the Company and Genco Ship Management LLC, collectively Manco, pursuant to which Genco (USA) agrees to reimburse Manco for the costs incurred by Genco (USA) for the use of Manco’s personnel and services in connection with the provision of the services for both Baltic Trading and MEP’s vessels.
Total revenues earned for these services during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $2,010 and $1,530, respectively, of which $772 and $703, respectively, was eliminated upon consolidation. After allocation of certain expenses, there was taxable income of $1,045 associated with these activities for the three months ended September 30, 2013. This resulted in estimated income tax expense of $471 for the three months ended September 30, 2013. After allocation of certain expenses, there was taxable income of $664 associated with these activities for the three months ended September 30, 2012. This resulted in income tax expense of $299 for the three months ended September 30, 2012.
Total revenues earned for these services during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $5,015 and $4,575, respectively, of which $2,148 and $2,109, respectively, was eliminated upon consolidation. After allocation of certain expenses, there was taxable income of $2,262 associated with these activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. This resulted in estimated income tax expense of $975 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. After allocation of certain expenses, there was taxable income of $1,985 associated with these activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This resulted in income tax expense of $892 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
Baltic Trading is subject to income tax on its United States source income. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, Baltic Trading had United States operations which resulted in United States source income of $420 and $200, respectively. Baltic Trading’s United States income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $8 and $4, respectively.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, Baltic Trading had United States operations which resulted in United States source income of $1,059 and $1,321, respectively. Baltic Trading’s United States income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $22 and $26, respectively.
Recent accounting pronouncements
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2013-02”), to improve the transparency of changes in other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”) and items reclassified out of accumulated other income (loss) (“AOCI”). The amendments in ASU 2013-02 are required to be applied prospectively and are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 will not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements other than separately disclosing in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements amounts reclassified out of AOCI and the individual line items in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations that are affected. The Company has adopted ASU 2013-02 and the impact of adoption is not material to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 12 — Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) for additional disclosure.
3 - SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company determines its operating segments based on the information utilized by the chief operating decision maker to assess performance. Based on this information, the Company has two operating segments, GS&T and Baltic Trading. Both GS&T and Baltic Trading are engaged in the ocean transportation of drybulk cargoes worldwide through the ownership and operation of drybulk carrier vessels. GS&T seeks to deploy its vessels on time charters, spot market-related time charters or in vessel pools trading in the spot market and Baltic Trading seeks to deploy its vessel charters in the spot market, which represents immediate chartering of a vessel, usually for single voyages, or employing vessels on spot market-related time charters. Segment results are evaluated based on net (loss) income. The accounting policies applied to the reportable segments are the same as those used in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
The following table presents a reconciliation of total voyage revenue from external (third party) customers for the Company’s two operating segments to total consolidated voyage revenue from external customers for the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

Refer to Note 12 — Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) for a breakdown of the components of AOCI.
7 — NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
The computation of basic net loss per share is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The computation of diluted net loss per share assumes the vesting of nonvested stock awards (refer to Note 20 — Nonvested Stock Awards), for which the assumed proceeds upon vesting are deemed to be the amount of compensation cost attributable to future services and are not yet recognized using the treasury stock method, to the extent dilutive. Of the 1,217,896 nonvested shares outstanding at September 30, 2013 (refer to Note 20 — Nonvested Stock Awards), all are anti-dilutive. The Company’s diluted net loss per share will also reflect the assumed conversion under the Company’s convertible debt if the impact is dilutive under the “if converted” method. The impact of the shares convertible under the Company’s convertible notes is excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share when interest expense per common share obtainable upon conversion is greater than basic earnings per share.
The components of the denominator for the calculation of basic net loss per share and diluted net loss per share are as follows:

2007 Credit Facility
On July 20, 2007, the Company entered into a credit facility with DnB NOR Bank ASA (as amended, the “2007 Credit Facility”). The maximum amount that may be borrowed under the 2007 Credit Facility at September 30, 2013 is $1,055,912. As of September 30, 2013, the Company has utilized its maximum borrowing capacity under the 2007 Credit Facility.
The maximum leverage ratio covenant and minimum permitted consolidated interest ratio covenants are currently waived for the periods ending on and including December 31, 2013 pursuant to the August 1, 2012 agreements to amend or waive certain provisions of the agreements for the 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility and the $253 Million Term Loan Facility (as defined below) (the “August 2012 Agreements”). Additionally, the collateral maintenance financial covenant is currently waived until the Company can represent that it is in compliance with all of its financial covenants. The Company’s cash dividends and share repurchases have been suspended until the collateral maintenance financial covenant can be satisfied.
The gross interest-bearing debt to total capital covenant ends during the period ending on and including December 31, 2013 pursuant to the August 2012 Agreements. This covenant limits the ratio of the Company’s interest-bearing indebtedness to the sum of its interest-bearing indebtedness and its consolidated net worth in accordance with U.S. GAAP to 62.5% on the last day of any fiscal quarter during the waiver period.
Additionally, pursuant to the August 2012 Agreements, the total applicable margin over LIBOR payable on the principal amount of debt outstanding increased from 2.0% to 3.0% per annum. The minimum cash balance required was also increased from $500 to $750 per vessel mortgaged under this facility pursuant to the August 2012 Agreements.
Pursuant to the amendment to the 2007 Credit Facility which was entered into on December 21, 2011, the Company was subject to a facility fee of 2.0% per annum on the average daily outstanding principal amount of the loans outstanding, payable quarterly in arrears, which was subject to a reduction to 1.0% if the Company consummated an equity offering resulting in an aggregate amount of $50,000 of gross proceeds. On February 28, 2012, the Company completed an equity offering of 7,500,000 shares which resulted in gross proceeds of $53,250.

As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company has deposited $9,750 that has been reflected as restricted cash. Restricted cash will be released only if the underlying collateral is sold or disposed of.
As of September 30, 2013, the Company believes it is in compliance with all of the financial covenants under the $253 Million Term Loan Facility, as amended. However, as of September 30, 2013, the Company believes it is probable that the Company will not be in compliance with certain covenants at measurement dates within the next twelve months. As such, the debt outstanding under this facility of $180,793 was classified as a current liability and the restricted cash related to this facility was classified as a current asset in the condensed consolidated balance sheet beginning March 31, 2013 and remained classified as a current liability and a current asset, respectively, as of September 30, 2013.
2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility
On April 16, 2010, Baltic Trading entered into a $100,000 senior secured revolving credit facility with Nordea Bank Finland plc, acting through its New York branch (as amended, the “2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility”). An amendment to the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility was entered into by Baltic Trading effective November 30, 2010. Among other things, this amendment increased the commitment amount of the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility from $100,000 to $150,000. An additional amendment to the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility was entered into by Baltic Trading effective August 29, 2013 (the “August 2013 Amendment”). Among other things, the August 2013 Amendment implemented the following modifications to the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility:
|
· |
The requirement that certain additional vessels acquired by Baltic Trading be mortgages as collateral under the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility was eliminated. |
|
· |
Restrictions on the incurrence of indebtedness by Baltic Trading and its subsidiaries were amended to apply only to those subsidiaries acting as guarantors under the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility. |
|
· |
The total commitment under this facility was reduced to $110,000 and will be further reduced in three consecutive semi-annual reductions of $5,000 commencing on May 30, 2015. |
|
· |
Borrowings bear interest at an applicable margin over LIBOR of 3.00% per annum if the ratio of the maximum facility amount of the aggregate appraised value of vessels mortgaged under the facility is 55% or less, measured quarterly; otherwise, the applicable margin is 3.35% per annum. |
|
· |
Financial covenants corresponding to the liquidity and leverage under the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility (as defined below) have been incorporated into the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility. |
As of September 30, 2013, $7,750 remained available under the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility as the total commitment was reduced to $110,000 on August 29, 2013. The total available working capital borrowings of $25,000 are subject to the total remaining availability under the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility; therefore, only $7,750 is available for working capital purposes as of September 30, 2013.
As of September 30, 2013, the Company believes Baltic Trading is in compliance with all of the financial covenants under the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, as amended.
2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility
On August 30, 2013, Baltic Hare Limited and Baltic Fox Limited, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Baltic Trading, entered into a secured loan agreement with DVB Bank SE for a term loan facility of up to $22,000 (the “2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility”). Amounts borrowed and repaid under the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility may not be reborrowed. This facility has a maturity date of the sixth anniversary of the drawdown date for borrowings for the second vessel to be purchased, or September 4, 2019. Borrowings under the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility bear interest at the three-month LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin of 3.35% per annum. A commitment fee of 1.00% is payable on the unused daily portion of the credit facility, which began accruing on August 30, 2013 and ended on September 4, 2013, the date which the entire $22,000 was borrowed. Borrowings are to be repaid in 23 quarterly installments of $375 each commencing three
months after the last vessel delivery date, or December 4, 2013, and a final payment of $13,375 due on the maturity date. Amounts repaid under the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility may not be reborrowed.
Borrowings under the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility are secured by liens on Baltic Trading’s vessels purchased with borrowings under the facility, namely the Baltic Fox and the Baltic Hare, and other related assets. Under a Guarantee and Indemnity entered into concurrently with the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, Baltic Trading agreed to guarantee the obligations of its subsidiaries under the 2013 Credit Facility.
The 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility also requires Baltic Trading, Baltic Hare Limited and Baltic Fox Limited to comply with a number of covenants, including financial covenants related to liquidity, leverage, consolidated net worth, and collateral maintenance; delivery of quarterly and annual financial statements and annual projections; maintaining adequate insurances; compliance with laws (including environmental); maintenance of flag and class of the initial vessels; restrictions on consolidations, mergers or sales of assets; limitations on changes in the manager of Baltic Trading’s vessels; limitations on changes to the Management Agreement; limitations on liens and additional indebtedness; prohibitions on paying dividends if an event of default has occurred or would occur as a result of payment of a dividend; restrictions on transactions with affiliates; and other customary covenants. The liquidity covenants under the facility require Baltic Hare Limited and Baltic Fox Limited to maintain $500 in its earnings account and Baltic Trading to maintain $750 per vessel in its fleet in cash or cash equivalents plus undrawn working capital lines of credit. The facility’s leverage covenant requires that the ratio of Baltic Trading’s total financial indebtedness to the value of its total assets as adjusted based on vessel appraisals not exceed 70%. The facility also requires that Baltic Trading maintains a minimum consolidated net worth of $232,796 plus fifty percent of the value of Baltic Trading’s equity offering completed on or after May 28, 2013. The facility’s collateral maintenance covenant requires that the minimum fair market value of vessels mortgaged under the facility be 130% of the amount outstanding under the facility through August 30, 2016 and 135% of such amount thereafter.
On September 4, 2013, Baltic Trading made two drawdowns of $10,730 and $11,270 for the Baltic Hare and the Baltic Fox, respectively. As of September 30, 2013, Baltic Trading has utilized its maximum borrowing capacity of $22,000, and there was no further availability.
As of September 30, 2013, the Company believes Baltic Trading is in compliance with all of the financial covenants under the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility.
Interest payable
As required under the August 2012 Agreements, lenders under the 2007 Credit Facility will receive a fee equal to 1.25% of the principal amount outstanding following such prepayment, or $13,199, on the earlier date of the maturity date of this facility or the date on which all obligations under this facility have been paid in full. The $13,199 was classified as current liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheet beginning March 31, 2013 and remained classified as a current liability as of September 30, 2013, consistent with the classification of the principal amount of the 2007 Credit Facility.

The remaining period over which the unamortized discount will be recognized is 1.87 years. As of September 30, 2013, the if-converted value of the 2010 Notes does not exceed their principal amount.
The Company believes it is probable that the Company will not be in compliance with certain covenants under its credit facilities at measurement dates within the twelve months after March 31, 2013. If such a default occurs, the Company may also be in default under the Indenture for the 2010 Notes. A default would occur under the Indenture, following applicable notice and expiration of applicable cure periods, if the Company fails to pay indebtedness in excess of $50,000 at final maturity (or when otherwise due) or if such indebtedness is accelerated. As such, the 2010 Notes were classified as a current liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheet beginning March 31, 2013 and remained classified as a current liability as of September 30, 2013.

The fair value of the floating rate debt under the $100 Million Term Loan Facility and $253 Million Term Loan Facility are based on management’s estimate utilizing rates the Company believes it would be able to obtain for these credit facilities. However, a portion of the floating rate debt in the 2007 Credit Facility was traded in a private transaction for an amount that is not determinable by the Company, which management believes was lower than the debt’s current carrying value. The fair value of the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility and the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility is based on management’s estimates of rates it has recently obtained pursuant to the amendment to the existing 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility on August 29, 2013, as well as per the debt agreement for the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility that was effective on August 30, 2013. Refer to Note 9 – Debt for further information. Additionally, the Company considers its creditworthiness in determining the fair value of floating rate debt under the credit facilities. The carrying value approximates the fair market value for these floating rate loans except for the 2007 Credit Facility. The fair value of the convertible senior notes payable represents the market value based on recent transactions of the 2010 Notes at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 without bifurcating the value of the conversion option. The fair value of the interest rate swaps shown below is the estimated amount the Company would receive to terminate the swap agreements at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and the creditworthiness of both the swap counterparty and the Company. The carrying amounts of the Company’s other financial instruments at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 (principally Due from charterers and Accounts payable and accrued expenses) approximate fair values because of the relatively short maturity of these instruments.
Accounting Standards Codification Subtopic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements & Disclosures” (“ASC 820-10”), applies to all assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis. This guidance enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumption (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:
|
· |
Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments that the Company is able to access. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these instruments does not entail a significant degree of judgment. |
|
· |
Level 2—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for instruments that are similar, or quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar instruments, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. |
|
· |
Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. |
As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities are categorized as follows:

The Company holds an investment in the capital stock of Jinhui, which is classified as a long-term investment. The stock of Jinhui is publicly traded on the Oslo Stock Exchange and is considered a Level 1 item. The Company’s interest rate derivative instruments are pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swaps based on LIBOR. The Company has elected to use the income approach to value the derivatives, using observable Level 2 market inputs at measurement date and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount assuming that participants are motivated, but not compelled to transact. Level 2 inputs for the valuations are limited to quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets (specifically futures contracts on LIBOR for the first two years) and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (specifically LIBOR cash and swap rates and credit risk at commonly quoted intervals). Mid-market pricing is used as a practical expedient for fair value measurements. Refer to Note 11 — Interest Rate Swap Agreements for further information regarding the Company’s interest rate swap agreements. ASC 820-10 states that the fair value measurement of an asset or liability must reflect the nonperformance risk of the entity and the counterparty. Therefore, the impact of the counterparty’s creditworthiness when in an asset position and the Company’s creditworthiness when in a liability position have also been factored into the fair value measurement of the derivative instruments. This credit valuation adjustment did not have a material impact on the fair value measurement of the derivative instruments. As of September 30, 2013, both the counterparty and the Company are expected to continue to perform under the contractual terms of the instruments. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are considered Level 1 items as they represent liquid assets with short-term maturities. Floating rate debt is considered to be a Level 2 item as the Company considers the estimate of rates it could obtain for similar debt or based upon transaction amongst third parties. The 2010 Notes are publicly traded in the over-the-counter market; however, they are not considered to be actively traded. As such, the 2010 Notes are considered to be a Level 2 item. The Company did not have any Level 3 financial assets or liabilities during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

18 - REVENUE FROM TIME CHARTERS
Total voyage revenue earned on time charters, including revenue earned in vessel pools and spot market-related time charters, as well as the sale of bunkers consumed during short-term time charters, for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $58,605 and $53,603, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $143,222 and $174,740, respectively. There was no profit sharing revenue earned during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. Future minimum time charter revenue, based on vessels committed to noncancelable time charter contracts as of November 1, 2013 is expected to be $9,676 for the remainder of 2013 and $7,068 during 2014, assuming off-hire due to any scheduled drydocking and that no additional off-hire time is incurred. For drydockings, the Company assumes twenty days of offhire. Future minimum revenue excludes revenue earned for the vessels currently in pool arrangements, vessels that are currently on or will be on spot market-related time charters as spot rates cannot be estimated, as well as profit sharing revenue.
19 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In September 2005, the Company entered into a 15-year lease for office space in New York, New York for which there was a free rental period from September 1, 2005 to July 31, 2006. On January 6, 2012, the Company ceased the use of this space and has recorded net rent (income) expense of ($39) and $255 during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $92 and $826 during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, representing the present value of the Company’s estimated remaining rent expense for the duration of the lease after taking
24
into account future sublease income based on the sublease agreement entered into effective November 1, 2013 and deferred rent on the facility. The current lease obligations related to this lease agreement as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 of $284 and $682, respectively, are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets in Current portion of lease obligations. The long-term lease obligations related to this lease agreement as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 of $790 and $672, respectively, are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets in Long-term lease obligations.
Future minimum rental payments on the above lease for the next five years and thereafter are as follows: $129 for the remainder of 2013, $518 annually for 2014 through 2015, $529 for 2016, $550 for 2017 and a total of $1,972 for the remaining term of the lease.
Effective April 4, 2011, the Company entered into a seven-year sub-sublease agreement for additional office space in New York, New York. The term of the sub-sublease commenced June 1, 2011, with a free base rental period until October 31, 2011. Following the expiration of the free base rental period, the monthly base rental payments will be $82 per month until May 31, 2015 and thereafter will be $90 per month until the end of the seven-year term. Pursuant to the sub-sublease agreement, the sublessor is obligated to contribute $472 toward the cost of the Company’s alterations to the sub-subleased office space. The Company has also entered into a direct lease with the over-landlord of such office space that will commence immediately upon the expiration of such sub-sublease agreement, for a term covering the period from May 1, 2018 to September 30, 2025; the direct lease provides for a free base rental period from May 1, 2018 to September 30, 2018. Following the expiration of the free base rental period, the monthly base rental payments will be $186 per month from October 1, 2018 to April 30, 2023 and $204 per month from May 1, 2023 to September 30, 2025. For accounting purposes, the sub-sublease agreement and direct lease agreement with the landlord constitutes one lease agreement. As a result of the straight-line rent calculation generated by the free rent period and the tenant work credit, the monthly straight-line rental expense for the term of the entire lease from June 1, 2011 to September 30, 2025 will be $130. The Company had a long-term lease obligation at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 of $2,225 and $1,793, respectively. Rent expense pertaining to this lease for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $389.

21 - SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM
Since the inception of its share repurchase program through September 30, 2013, the Company has repurchased and retired 278,300 shares of its common stock for $11,500. Currently, the terms of the 2007 Credit Facility require the Company to suspend all share repurchases until the Company can represent that it is in a position to again satisfy the collateral maintenance covenant. No share repurchases were made during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.
22 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, the Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of its business, principally personal injury and property casualty claims. Such claims, even if lacking merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. The Company is not aware of any legal proceedings or claims that it believes will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material effect on the Company, its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
23 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On October 31, 2013, Baltic Trading declared a dividend of $0.02 per share to be paid on or November 22, 2013 to shareholders of record as of November 18, 2013. The aggregate amount of the dividend is expected to be approximately $874, of which approximately $752 will be paid to minority shareholders, which Baltic Trading anticipates will be funded from cash on hand at the time payment is to be made.
On October 31, 2013, Baltic Trading entered into agreements to purchase a 2012 built 179,185 dwt Capesize drybulk vessel and a 2011 built 179,185 dwt Capesize drybulk vessel from affiliates of SK Shipping Co. Ltd. for an aggregate purchase price of $103,000. These vessels are to be renamed the Baltic Lion and the Baltic Tiger, respectively. The purchases are subject to completion of customary additional documentation and closing conditions. The vessels are expected to be delivered to Baltic Trading by the end of the fourth quarter of 2013. Baltic Trading plans to finance this acquisition in part through the proceeds from its common stock offering completed on September 25, 2013 and in part through commercial bank debt financing. Baltic Trading is in negotiations to obtain a commitment for commercial bank financing from a global lending institution.

Included among the factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward looking statements contained in this report are the following: (i) declines in demand or rates in the drybulk shipping industry; (ii) prolonged weakness in drybulk shipping rates; (iii) changes in the supply of or demand for drybulk products, generally or in particular regions; (iv) changes in the supply of drybulk carriers including newbuilding of vessels or lower than anticipated scrapping of older vessels; (v) changes in rules and regulations applicable to the cargo industry, including, without limitation, legislation adopted by international organizations or by individual countries and actions taken by regulatory authorities; (vi) increases in costs and expenses including but not limited to: crew wages, insurance, provisions, repairs, maintenance and general, administrative and management fee expenses; (vii) whether our insurance arrangements are adequate; (viii) changes in general domestic and international political conditions; (ix) acts of war, terrorism, or piracy; (x) changes in the condition of the our vessels or applicable maintenance or regulatory standards (which may affect, among other things, our anticipated drydocking or maintenance and repair costs) and unanticipated drydock expenditures; (xi) our acquisition or disposition of vessels; (xii) the amount of offhire time needed to complete repairs on vessels and the timing and amount of any reimbursement by our insurance carriers for insurance claims, including offhire days; (xiii) the completion of definitive documentation with respect to time charters; (xiv) charterers’ compliance with the terms of their charters in the current market environment; (xv) the Company’s ability to obtain modifications or alternatives to its financing arrangements on acceptable terms; (xvi) the fulfillment of the closing conditions under, or the execution of additional documentation for, Baltic Trading’s agreements to acquire vessels; and (xvii) completion of definitive documentation for and funding of financing for the vessel acquisitions on acceptable terms; and other factors listed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, without limitation, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and subsequent reports on Form 8-K and Form 10-Q. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
The following management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our historical consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in this Form 10-Q.
General
We are a Marshall Islands company that transports iron ore, coal, grain, steel products and other drybulk cargoes along worldwide shipping routes through the ownership and operation of drybulk carrier vessels. Excluding vessels of Baltic Trading Limited (“Baltic Trading”), our fleet consisted of nine Capesize, eight Panamax, 17 Supramax, six Handymax and 13 Handysize drybulk carriers, with an aggregate carrying capacity of approximately 3,810,000 dwt, and the average age of our fleet was approximately 8.5 years, as compared to the average age for the world fleet of approximately 10 years for the drybulk shipping segments in which we compete. We seek to deploy our vessels on time charters, spot market-related time charters or in vessel pools trading in the spot market, to reputable charterers, including Cargill International S.A., Pacific Basin Chartering Ltd., Swissmarine Services S.A. and LB/IVS Pool, in which Lauritzen Bulkers A/S acts as the pool manager. The majority of the vessels in our current fleet are presently engaged under time charter, spot market-related time charter contracts and pool agreements that expire (assuming the option periods in the time charters are not exercised) between November 2013 and November 2015.
In addition, Baltic Trading’s fleet currently consists of two Capesize, four Supramax and five Handysize drybulk carriers with an aggregate carrying capacity of approximately 736,000 dwt. On July 2, 2013, Baltic Trading entered into agreements to purchase a 2010 built, 31,883 dwt Handysize drybulk vessel and a 2009 built, 31,887 dwt Handysize drybulk
27
vessel from subsidiaries of Clipper Group for an aggregate purchase price of $41.0 million renamed the Baltic Fox and Baltic Hare, respectively. The Baltic Fox and Baltic Hare were delivered on September 6, 2013 and September 5, 2013, respectively. Baltic Trading funded a portion of the purchase price of the vessels using proceeds from its registered follow-on common stock offering complted on May 28, 2013. For the remainder of the purchase price, Baltic Tradng drew down $22.0 million on its secured loan agreement with DVB Bank SE (the “2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility”). Refer to Note 9 – Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding this credit facility.
On October 31, 2013, Baltic Trading entered into agreements to purchase a 2012 built 179,185 dwt Capesize drybulk vessel and a 2011 built 179,185 dwt Capesize drybulk vessel from affiliates of SK Shipping Co. Ltd. for an aggregate purchase price of $103,000. These vessels are to be renamed the Baltic Lion and the Baltic Tiger, respectively. The purchases are subject to completion of customary additional documentation and closing conditions. The vessels are expected to be delivered by the end of the fourth quarter of 2013. Baltic Trading plans to finance this acquisition in part through the proceeds from its common stock offering completed on September 25, 2013 and in part through commercial bank debt financing. Baltic Trading is in negotiations to obtain a commitment for commercial bank financing from a global lending institution. Baltic Trading is seeking to raise additional cash through commercial bank debt financing in order to fulfill its payment obligations under the agreements relating to the Capesize vessel acquisitions. There can be no assurance that Baltic Trading will be able to obtain the proposed commercial bank financing or any other financing, or that if it does so, that Baltic Trading will be able to borrow all or any of the amounts committed thereunder. Baltic Trading needs to raise additional capital in order to fulfill these obligations. If Baltic Trading breaches or does not fully perform its obligations under such agreements, Baltic Trading may forfeit the deposits and other amounts it has paid to the sellers in connection with the Capesize vessel acquisitions, and may be liable to the sellers for any additional damages resulting from its actions.
See pages 34 - 37 for tables of all vessels that have been or are expected to be delivered to us, including Baltic Trading’s vessels.
Our management team and our other employees are responsible for the commercial and strategic management of our fleet. Commercial management includes the negotiation of charters for vessels, managing the mix of various types of charters, such as time charters, voyage charters and spot market-related time charters, and monitoring the performance of our vessels under their charters. Strategic management includes locating, purchasing, financing and selling vessels. We currently contract with three independent technical managers to provide technical management of our fleet at a lower cost than we believe would be possible in-house. Technical management involves the day-to-day management of vessels, including performing routine maintenance, attending to vessel operations and arranging for crews and supplies. Members of our New York City-based management team oversee the activities of our independent technical managers.
Baltic Trading, formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, completed its IPO on March 15, 2010. On May 28, 2013, Baltic Trading closed on an equity offering of 6,419,217 shares of common stock at an offering price of $3.60 per share. Baltic Trading received net proceeds of $21.6 million after deducting underwriters’ fees and expenses. Additionally, on September 25, 2013, Baltic Trading cosed on an equity offering of 13,800,000 shares of common stock at an offering price of $4.60 per share. Baltic Trading received net proceeds of $59.5 million. As of September 30, 2013, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Genco Investments LLC owned 6,103,471 shares of Baltic Trading’s Class B Stock, which represents a 13.97% ownership interest in Baltic Trading at September 30, 2013 and 70.90% of the aggregate voting power of Baltic Trading’s outstanding shares of voting stock. Baltic Trading is consolidated with the Company, as we control a majority of the voting interest in Baltic Trading. Management’s discussion and analysis of the Company’s results of operations and financial condition in this section includes the results of Baltic Trading.
We entered into a long-term management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Baltic Trading pursuant to which we apply our expertise and experience in the drybulk industry to provide Baltic Trading with commercial, technical, administrative and strategic services. The Management Agreement is for an initial term of approximately 15 years and will automatically renew for additional five-year periods unless terminated in accordance with its terms. Baltic Trading will pay us for the services we provide it as well as reimburse us for our costs and expenses incurred in providing certain of these services. Management fee income we earn from the Management Agreement net of any allocated shared expenses, such as salary, office expenses and other general and administrative fees, will be taxable to us. Upon consolidation with Baltic Trading, any management fee income earned will be eliminated for financial reporting purposes.
We provide technical services for drybulk vessels purchased by Maritime Equity Partners LLC (“MEP”) under an agency agreement between us and MEP. These services include oversight of crew management, insurance, drydocking, ship operations and financial statement preparation, but do not include chartering services. The services are provided for a fee of $750 per ship per day plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket costs and will be provided for an initial term of one year. MEP has the right to cancel provision of services on 60 days’ notice with payment of a one-year termination fee upon a change of our control. We may terminate provision of the services at any time on 60 days’ notice. Peter C. Georgiopoulos, our Chairman of the Board of Directors, controls and has a minority interest in MEP. This arrangement was approved by an independent committee of our Board of Directors.
Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
We believe that the following table reflects important measures for analyzing trends in our results of operations. The table reflects our ownership days, available days, operating days, fleet utilization, TCE rates and daily vessel operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 on a consolidated basis, which includes the operations of Baltic Trading.

Definitions
In order to understand our discussion of our results of operations, it is important to understand the meaning of the following terms used in our analysis and the factors that influence our results of operations.
(1) Ownership days. We define ownership days as the aggregate number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet has been owned by us. Ownership days are an indicator of the size of our fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of expenses that we record during a period.
(2) Available days. We define available days as the number of our ownership days in a period less the aggregate number of days that our vessels are off-hire due to scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades or special surveys and the aggregate amount of time that we spend positioning our vessels between time charters. Companies in the shipping industry generally use available days to measure the number of days in a period during which vessels should be capable of generating revenues.
(3) Operating days. We define operating days as the number of our available days in a period less the aggregate number of days that our vessels are off-hire due to unforeseen circumstances. The shipping industry uses operating days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period during which vessels actually generate revenues.
(4) 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 number 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.
(5) TCE rates. We define TCE rates as net voyage revenue (voyage revenues less voyage expenses) divided by the number of our available days during the period, which is consistent with industry standards. TCE rate is a common shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare daily earnings generated by vessels on time charters with daily earnings generated by vessels on voyage charters, because charterhire rates for vessels on voyage charters are generally not expressed in per-day amounts while charterhire rates for vessels on time charters generally are expressed in such amounts.

EBITDA represents net (loss) income attributable to Genco Shipping & Trading Limited plus net interest expense, taxes and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is included because it is used by management and certain investors as a measure of operating performance. EBITDA is used by analysts in the shipping industry as a common performance measure to compare results across peers. Our management uses EBITDA as a performance measure in our consolidated internal financial statements, and it is presented for review at our board meetings. We believe that EBITDA is useful to investors as the shipping industry is capital intensive which often results in significant depreciation and cost of financing. EBITDA presents investors with a measure in addition to net income to evaluate our performance prior to these costs. EBITDA is not an item recognized by U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other indicator of a company’s operating performance required by U.S. GAAP. EBITDA is not a measure of liquidity or cash flows as shown in our consolidated statements of cash flows. The definition of EBITDA used here may not be comparable to that used by other companies. The foregoing definition of EBITDA differs from the definition of Consolidated EBITDA used in the financial covenants of our 2007 Credit Facility, our $253 Million Term Loan Credit Facility, and our $100 Million Term Loan Credit Facility. Specifically, Consolidated EBITDA substitutes gross interest expense (which includes amortization of deferred financing costs) for net interest expense used in our definition of EBITDA, includes adjustments for restricted stock amortization and non-cash charges for deferred financing costs related to the refinancing of other credit facilities or any non-cash losses from our investment in Jinhui, and excludes extraordinary gains or losses and gains or losses from derivative instruments used for hedging purposes or sales of assets other than inventory sold in the ordinary course of business. The following table demonstrates our calculation of EBITDA and provides a reconciliation of EBITDA to net (loss) income attributable to Genco Shipping & Trading Limited for each of the periods presented above: |

(1) The charter expiration dates presented represent the earliest dates that our charters may be terminated in the ordinary course. Under the terms of each contract, the charterer is entitled to extend the time charter from two to four months in order to complete the vessel's final voyage plus any time the vessel has been off-hire.
(2) Time charter rates presented are the gross daily charterhire rates before third-party brokerage commission generally ranging from 1.25% to 6.25%. In a time charter, the charterer is responsible for voyage expenses such as bunkers, port expenses, agents’ fees and canal dues.
(3) We have agreed to an extension with Cargill International S.A. on a spot market-related time charter for 11.5 to 14.5 months based on 100% of the Baltic Capesize Index (BCI), published by the Baltic Exchange, as reflected in daily reports. Hire is paid every 15 days in arrears less a 5.00% third-party brokerage commission. We maintain the option to convert to a fixed rate based on Capesize FFA values at 100%. The extension began on September 25, 2013.
(4) We have agreed to an extension with Swissmarine Services S.A. on a spot market-related time charter based on 99% of the BCI, as reflected in daily reports. Hire is paid every 15 days in arrears less a 5.00% third-party brokerage commission. The minimum and maximum expiration dates of the time charter are October 1, 2014 and December 1, 2014, respectively. We maintain the option to convert to a fixed rate based on Capesize FFA values at 99%. The extension is expected to begin on or about March 1, 2014.
(5) We have agreed to an extension with Swissmarine Services S.A. on a spot market-related time charter based on 100% of the Baltic Panamax Index (BPI), published by the Baltic Exchange, as reflected in daily reports. Hire is paid every 15 days in arrears less a 5.00% third-party brokerage commission. The minimum and maximum expiration dates of the time charter are May 1, 2015 and July 15, 2015, respectively. We maintain the option to convert to a fixed rate based on Panamax FFA values at 100%. The extension is expected to begin on or about December 7, 2013.
(6) We have agreed to an extension with Pacific Basin Chartering Ltd. on a spot market-related time charter for 11 to 14 months based on 107% of the Baltic Supramax Index (BSI), published by the Baltic Exchange, as reflected in daily reports. Hire is paid every 15 days in arrears less a 5.00% third-party brokerage commission. We maintain the option to convert to a fixed rate based on Supramax FFA values at 107%. The extension began on October 29, 2013.
(7) We have reached an agreement with Pacific Bulk Shipping Ltd. on a time charter for approximately 20 days at a rate of $14,500 per day. Hire is paid every 15 days in advance less a 5.00% third-party brokerage commission. The vessel delivered to charterers on October 29, 2013 after repositioning. The vessel redelivered to us on October 23, 2013.
(8) We have reached an agreement with Western Bulk Carriers A/S on a time charter for approximately 35 days at a rate of $9,000 per day. Hire is paid every 15 days in advance less a 5.00% third-party brokerage commission. The vessel is expected to deliver to charterers on or about November 15, 2013 after repositioning. A ballast bonus will be awarded after the repositioning period. The vessel redelivered to us from the previous charterer on October 22, 2013.
(9) We have reached an agreement with PCL Shipping PTE Ltd. on a time charter for approximately 30 days at a rate of $10,300 per day. Hire is paid every 15 days in advance less a 5.50% third-party brokerage commission. The vessel delivered to charterers on November 5, 2013.
(10) We have reached an agreement with Pacific World Shipping PTE Ltd. on a time charter for approximately 20 days at a rate of $13,000 per day. Hire is paid every 15 days in advance less a 5.00% third-party brokerage commission. The vessel delivered to charterers on October 31, 2013.
(11) We have reached an agreement with ED & F MAN Shipping Ltd. on a time charter for 3.5 to 6.5 months at a rate of $9,675 per day. Hire is paid every 15 days in advance less a 5.00% third-party brokerage commission. The vessel delivered to charterers on October 2, 2013.
(12) We have reached an agreement to enter the vessel into the Clipper Logger Pool, a vessel pool trading in the spot market of which Clipper Group acts as the pool manager. We can withdraw the vessel with a minimum notice of six months. The vessel entered the pool on October 1, 2013.
(13) We have reached an agreement to enter the vessel into the Clipper Logger Pool, a vessel pool trading in the spot market of which Clipper Group acts as the pool manager. We can withdraw the vessel with a minimum notice of six months. The vessel redelivered from Lauritzen Bulkers A/S on October 12, 2013 and went to drydock for scheduled repairs. The vessel entered the Clipper Logger Pool on October 27, 2013.
(14) We have reached an agreement to enter these vessels into the LB/IVS Pool whereby Lauritzen Bulkers A/S acts as the pool manager. We can withdraw the three vessels with 12 months’ notice.
(15) The rate for the spot market-related time charter is linked with a floor of $8,500 and a ceiling of $13,500 daily with a 50% profit sharing arrangement to apply to any amount above the ceiling. The rate is based on 115% of the average of the daily rates of the BHSI, as reflected in daily reports. Hire is paid every 15 days in advance net of a 5.00% third-party brokerage commission. These vessels were acquired with existing time charters with below-market rates. For these below-market time charters, we allocate the purchase price between the respective vessels and an intangible liability for the value assigned to the below-market charter-hire. This intangible liability is amortized as an increase to voyage revenues over the minimum remaining terms of the applicable charters, at which point the respective liabilities will be amortized to zero and the vessels will begin earning the ‘‘Cash Daily Rate.’’ For cash flow purposes, we will continue to receive the rate presented in the ‘‘Cash Daily Rate’’ column until the charter expires. Specifically, for the Genco Spirit and Genco Avra, the daily amount of amortization associated with the below-market rates are approximately $200 and $350 per day over the actual cash rate earned, respectively.

Three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012
VOYAGE REVENUES-
For the three months ended September 30, 2013, voyage revenues increased 9.3% to $58.6 million as compared to $53.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in revenues was mainly due to higher charter rates achieved by our Capesize and Panamax vessels, the operation of the Baltic Fox and Baltic Hare which were delivered during the the third quarter of 2013 as well as fewer offhire days for planned drydockings during the third quarter of 2013. These increase were partially offset by lower earnings generated by our smaller class vessels.
The average Time Charter Equivalent (“TCE”) rate of our fleet increased 8.4% to $9,882 a day for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $9,119 a day for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in TCE rates resulted from higher charter rates achieved in the third quarter of 2013 versus the same period in 2012 for our Capesize and Panamax vessels partially offset by lower earnings by our smaller class vessels. Although we believe there still remains excess vessel supply in the market, we believe the declining pace of fleet growth has caused freight rates to be more correlated to increases in cargo demand. We believe that during the third quarter, reduced supply growth in combination with increased shipments of iron ore volumes from Brazil and Australia as a result of higher Chinese steel production contributed to the Baltic Capesize Index reaching its highest point since 2010.
For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, we had 5,754.1 and 5,704.0 ownership days, respectively. The increase in ownership days is a result of the delivery of two Baltic Trading vessels, the Baltic Fox and Baltic Hare,
during the third quarter of 2013. Fleet utilization was stable at 99.3% and 99.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
SERVICE REVENUES-
Service revenues consist of revenues earned from providing technical services to MEP pursuant to the agency agreement between us and MEP. These services include oversight of crew management, insurance, drydocking, ship operations and financial statement preparation, but do not include chartering services. The services are provided for a fee of $750 per ship per day. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, total service revenue was $0.8 million during both periods.
VOYAGE EXPENSES-
In time charters, spot market-related time charters and pool agreements, operating costs including crews, maintenance and insurance are typically paid by the owner of the vessel and specified voyage costs such as fuel and port charges are paid by the charterer. There are certain other non-specified voyage expenses such as commissions which are typically borne by us. Voyage expenses include port and canal charges, fuel (bunker) expenses and brokerage commissions payable to unaffiliated third parties. Port and canal charges and bunker expenses primarily increase in periods during which vessels are employed on voyage charters because these expenses are for the account of the vessel owner. At the inception of a time charter, we record the difference between the cost of bunker fuel delivered by the terminating charterer and the bunker fuel sold to the new charterer as a gain or loss within voyage expenses and the cost of bunkers consumed during short-term time charters.
Voyage expenses decreased by $0.5 million from $2.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to $2.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in in the cost of bunkers consumed during short-term time charters partially offset by an increase in broker commissions as a result of an increase in voyage revenue earned during the third quarter of 2013 as compared to the third quarter of 2012.
VESSEL OPERATING EXPENSES-
Vessel operating expenses decreased by $0.8 million to $27.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to $28.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily due to lower maintenance expenses as well as the timing of purchases of stores for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012.
Daily vessel operating expenses decreased to $4,782 per vessel per day for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $4,956 per day for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease in daily vessel operating expenses was mainly due to lower maintenance expenses, as well as the timing of purchases of stores. We believe daily vessel operating expenses are best measured for comparative purposes over a 12-month period in order to take into account all of the expenses that each vessel in our fleet will incur over a full year of operation. Our actual daily vessel operating expenses per vessel for the three months ended September 30, 2013 were $490 below the weighted-average budgeted rate of $5,272 per vessel per day, which includes Baltic Trading’s vessels.
Our vessel operating expenses, which generally represent fixed costs for each vessel, will increase if our fleet expands. Other factors beyond our control, some of which may affect the shipping industry in general, including, for instance, developments relating to market prices for crewing, lubes, and insurance, may also cause these expenses to increase.
GENERAL, ADMINISTRATIVE AND MANAGEMENT FEES-
General, administrative and management fees decreased by $0.8 million from $8.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2012 to $7.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to lower non-cash compensation and office related expenses. We incur management fees to third-party technical management companies for the day-to-day management of our vessels, including performing routine maintenance, attending to vessel operations and arranging for crews and supplies. Management fees did not fluctuate significantly during the third quarter of 2013 as compared to the third quarter of 2012.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION-
Depreciation and amortization expense remained stable at $35.2 million and $35.0 million during the third quarter of 2013 and the third quarter of 2012, respectively.
OTHER (EXPENSE) INCOME-
NET INTEREST EXPENSE-
For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, net interest expense was $23.1 million and $21.5 million, respectively. Net interest expense during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 consisted of interest expense under our 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility, Baltic Trading’s $150 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility”), the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, as well as interest expense related to our 5.0% Convertible Senior Notes (the “2010 Notes”). Additionally, interest income, unused commitment fees associated with the aforementioned credit facilities as well as the amortization of deferred financing costs related to the aforementioned credit facilities are included in net interest expense during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.
The increase in net interest expense for the third quarter of 2013 as compared to the third quarter of 2012 was primarily due to an increase in the amortization of deferred financing costs during the three months ended September 30, 2013 due to additional financing fees capitalized as part of the negotiations of the August 1, 2012 amendment to the 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility and the $253 Million Term Loan Facility. Refer to Note 9 — Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements and the 2012 10-K for more information regarding the August 1, 2012 amendment.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE-
For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, income tax expense was $0.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively. This income tax expense consists primarily of federal, state and local income taxes on net income earned by Genco Management (USA) Limited (“Genco (USA)”), one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Pursuant to certain agreements, we technically and commercially manage vessels for Baltic Trading, as well as provide technical management of vessels for MEP in exchange for specified fees for these services provided. These services are provided by Genco (USA), which has elected to be taxed as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes. As such, Genco (USA) is subject to United States federal income tax on its worldwide net income, including the net income derived from providing these services. Refer to the “Income taxes” section of Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information. The increase in income tax expense during the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the same period during the prior year is a result of additional income earned by Genco (USA) during the three months ended September 30, 2013. This was due to the 1% purchase fee earned by Genco (USA) from Baltic Trading pursuant to the Management Agreement related to the delivery of two vessels, the Baltic Fox and Baltic Hare, during the three months ended September 30, 2013. These purchase fees eliminate upon consolidation; however, the fees are included in the net income earned by Genco (USA) and are taxable. There were no similar transactions during the three months ended September 30, 2012.
NET LOSS ATTRIBUTABLE TO NONCONTROLLING INTEREST-
For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest was $1.9 million and $3.6 million, respectively. These amounts represent the net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest of Baltic Trading.
Nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012
VOYAGE REVENUES-
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, voyage revenues decreased 18.0% to $143.2 million versus $174.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Revenues decreased by approximately $31.5 million primarily due to lower charter rates achieved by the majority of our vessels partially offset by a higher number of offhire days for planned drydockings during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The net decrease in voyage revenues includes a $1.3 million increase in revenues earned by Baltic Trading due to higher spot market rates achieved by its Capesize vessels, as well as the increase in the size of Baltic Trading’s fleet during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
The average TCE rate of our fleet decreased 20.3% to $8,141 a day for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $10,218 a day for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease in TCE rates resulted from lower charter rates achieved during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 versus the same period last year for the majority of the vessels in our fleet as well as an increase in the number of available days.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, we had 16,976.1 and 16,988.0 ownership days, respectively. The net decrease in ownership days is a result of an additional day during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 due to the leap year partially offset by an increase in ownership days as a result of the delivery of two Baltic Trading vessels, the Baltic Fox and Baltic Hare, during the third quarter of 2013. Fleet utilization was stable at 99.4% and 99.3% during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.
SERVICE REVENUES-
Service revenues consist of revenues earned from providing technical services to MEP pursuant to the agency agreement between us and MEP. These services include oversight of crew management, insurance, drydocking, ship operations and financial statement preparation, but do not include chartering services. The services are provided for a fee of $750 per ship per day. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, total service revenue was $2.5 million during both periods.
VOYAGE EXPENSES-
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, voyage expenses were $6.4 million and $5.1 million, respectively. The $1.3 million increase is primarily due to a decrease in bunker gains, as well as an increase in the cost of bunkers consumed during short-term time charters during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the same period during 2012. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in broker commissions as a result of a decrease in voyage revenue earned during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the same period last year. Included in this variance is a $0.3 million increase in voyage expenses for Baltic Trading vessels due to an increase in the cost of bunkers consumed during short-term time charters.
VESSEL OPERATING EXPENSES-
Vessel operating expenses decreased by $4.2 million to $81.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to $85.6 million the nine months ended September 30, 2012 primarily due to lower maintenance related expenses as well as the timing of purchases of stores during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
Daily vessel operating expenses decreased to $4,795 per vessel per day for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $5,040 per day for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease in daily vessel operating expenses was mainly due to lower maintenance related expenses and the timing of purchases of stores. We believe daily vessel operating expenses are best measured for comparative purposes over a 12-month period in order to take into account all of the expenses that each vessel in our fleet will incur over a full year of operation. Our actual daily vessel operating expenses per vessel for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 were $477 below the weighted-average budgeted rate of approximately $5,272 per vessel per day, which includes Baltic Trading’s vessels.
GENERAL, ADMINISTRATIVE AND MANAGEMENT FEES-
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, general, administrative and management fees decreased to $24.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to $25.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This is primarily due to lower non-cash compensation and office related expenses partially offset by higher cash compensation expenses. We incur management fees to third-party technical management companies for the day-to-day management of our vessels, including performing routine maintenance, attending to vessel operations and arranging for crews and supplies. Management fees did not fluctuate significantly during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION-
Depreciation and amortization expense remained stable at $104.3 million and $104.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
OTHER (EXPENSE) INCOME-
NET INTEREST EXPENSE-
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, net interest expense was $65.9 million and $64.8 million, respectively. Net interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 consisted of interest expense under our 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility, the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, and the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility as well as interest expense related to our 2010 Notes. Additionally, interest income, unused commitment fees associated with the aforementioned credit facilities as well as the amortization of deferred financing costs related to the aforementioned credit facilities are included in net interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.
The increase in net interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily due to an increase in the amortization of deferred financing costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 due to additional financing fees capitalized as part of the negotiations of the August 1, 2012 amendement to the 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility and the $253 Million Term Loan Facility. There was also an increase in the applicable margin for the 2007 Credit Facility which increased from 2.0% to 3.0% effective August 1, 2012 pursuant to an amendment to the 2007 Credit Facility. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in interest expense as a result of lower outstanding debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 due to the prepayment of $99.9 million of outstanding debt during August 2012 pursuant to the August 1, 2012 amendment to the 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility and the $253 Million Term Loan Facility. Refer to Note 9 — Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements and the 2012 10-K for more information regarding the August 1, 2012 amendment.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE-
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, income tax expense was $1.0 million as compared to $0.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This income tax expense consists primarily of federal, state and local income taxes on net income earned by Genco Management (USA) Limited (“Genco (USA)”), one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Pursuant to certain agreements, we technically and commercially manage vessels for Baltic Trading, as well as provide technical management of vessels for MEP in exchange for specified fees for these services provided. These services are provided by Genco (USA), which has elected to be taxed as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes. As such, Genco (USA) is subject to United States federal income tax on its worldwide net income, including the net income derived from providing these services. Refer to the “Income taxes” section of Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information. The increase in income tax expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the same period during the prior year is primarily a result of additional income earned by Genco (USA) during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. This was due to the 1% purchase fee earned by Genco (USA) from Baltic Trading pursuant to the Management Agreement related to the delivery of two vessels, the Baltic Fox and Baltic Hare, during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. These purchase fees eliminate upon consolidation; however, the fees are included in the net income earned by Genco (USA) and are taxable. There were no similar transactions during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
NET LOSS ATTRIBUTABLE TO NONCONTROLLING INTEREST-
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest was $9.3 million and $9.6 million, respectively. These amounts represent the net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest of Baltic Trading.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
To date, we have financed our capital requirements with cash flow from operations, equity offerings, convertible notes and bank debt. We have used our funds primarily to fund vessel acquisitions, regulatory compliance expenditures, the repayment of bank debt and the associated interest expense and the payment of dividends. We may consider debt and equity financing alternatives from time to time. However, if market conditions are negative, we may be unable to raise additional
equity capital or debt financing on acceptable terms or at all. As a result, we may be unable to pursue acquisition opportunities to expand our business.
Given the negative impact of the current weak drybulk rate environment on our earnings, we face potential liquidity issues under our credit facilities and our 2010 Notes. We anticipate that it is probable that we will be unable to make required payments under our credit facilities commencing March 31, 2014 unless we obtain modifications to or waivers of the terms of these facilities. In addition, as discussed below in more detail, we may also be unable to maintain compliance with certain covenants under our credit facilities at measurement dates during the six months ending March 31, 2014. If any of these events occur, we may experience a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Under the terms of agreements we entered into on August 1, 2012 to amend our 2007 Credit Facility, our $253 Million Term Loan Facility, and our $100 Million Term Loan Facility (the “August 2012 Agreements”), we repaid $99.9 million of outstanding debt under these facilities, we implemented a quarterly sweep of cash over $100 million to repay debt under the 2007 Credit Facility, and our next scheduled amortization payments are due in the first quarter of 2014 in the aggregate principal amount of $55.2 million. The amount of cash for our working capital needs and growth is thus limited. Moreover, given our current cash reserves, if drybulk shipping rates remain at current levels or decline, it is probable that we will be unable to make our next amortization payments when due.
The 2007 Credit Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility and the $100 Million Term Loan Facility require us to maintain a minimum cash balance of $39.8 million as measured at each quarter-end, excluding amounts held by Baltic Trading Limited. In light of our required amortization payments, our current cash reserves, and current drybulk shipping rates, we believe it is probable that we will not remain in compliance with our minimum cash covenants at or after March 31, 2014, and we may not be in compliance earlier in the event of sustained weakness in the drybulk shipping sector. Our compliance with this covenant is not subject to any of the waivers applicable to other covenants described below.
The 2007 Credit Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility, and $100 Million Term Loan Facility also include a maximum leverage ratio covenant limiting the ratio of our net debt to EBITDA to a maximum of 5.5 to 1. We calculate the leverage ratio under these facilities by dividing our Average Consolidated Net Indebtedness by our Consolidated EBITDA as defined under these facilities. There is no leverage ratio covenant under the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility. Average Consolidated Net Indebtedness is the monthly average of our indebtedness as defined under the facilities, which at September 30, 2013 consisted of long-term debt, the 2010 Notes, cash and cash equivalents (excluding restricted cash) and the letter of credit issued related to leases. Under certain agreements we entered into with our lenders on December 21, 2011 (the “December 2011 Agreements”) and the August 2012 Agreements, our compliance with this covenant is waived through December 31, 3013. However, when our compliance with this covenant is measured again on March 31, 2014 after expiration of the waiver, we believe it is probable that we will not be in compliance.
The 2007 Credit Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility, and $100 Million Term Loan Facility additionally include a consolidated interest ratio covenant requiring the ratio of our EBITDA to interest expense, on a rolling last four-quarter basis, to be no less than 2.0:1.0. Under the December 2011 Agreements and the August 2012 Agreements, our compliance with this covenant is waived through December 31, 3013. However, when our compliance with this covenant is measured again on March 31, 2014 after expiration of the waiver, it is probable that we may not be in compliance.
Absent sufficient waivers or modifications to our credit agreements, if we do not comply with our payment obligations or these covenants and fail to cure our non-compliance following applicable notice and expiration of applicable cure periods, we will be in default of one or more of our credit facilities. If such a default occurs, we may also be in default under the Indenture for our 2010 Notes and our interest rate swaps. As a result, some or all of our indebtedness could be declared immediately due and payable, and we may not have sufficient assets available to satisfy our obligations. Substantially all of our assets are pledged as collateral to our lenders, and our lenders may seek to foreclose on their collateral if a default occurs. We may have to seek alternative sources of financing on terms that may not be favorable to us or that may not be available at all. We therefore could experience a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Given the foregoing, we may require capital to fund ongoing operations, acquisitions and debt service. We are currently in discussions with our lenders and expect to seek further waivers or modifications to our credit agreements, which may be unavailable or subject to conditions. We may also seek to refinance our indebtedness or raise additional capital through equity or debt offerings or selling assets (including vessels), reduce or delay capital expenditures, or pursue other restructuring options. We cannot be certain that we will accomplish any such actions.
In addition, notwithstanding the waiver of certain covenants as described above, for purposes of preparing financial statements, the Company is required to assess future compliance with the original covenants at future quarterly measurement dates in accordance with GAAP. As discussed above, we believe it is probable that the Company will not be in compliance with certain covenants as of March 31, 2014. Accordingly, the outstanding debt as of March 31, 2013 under the 2007 Credit Facility, the $253 Million Term Loan Facility and the $100 Million Term Loan Facility was reclassified as a current liability in our condensed consolidated balance sheet beginning March 31, 2013 and remained classified as a current liability as of September 30, 2013. This reclassification does not affect the existing waivers, although there can be no assurance that we could obtain further waivers upon their expiration. As we may also be in default under the Indenture for the 2010 Notes and our interest rate swaps if we are in default under any of our credit facilities, the 2010 Notes and one swap previously classified as a long-term liability have likewise been reclassified as current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet beginning March 31, 2013 and remained classified as a current liability as of September 30, 2013.
Pursuant to the current terms of the 2007 Credit Facility, the existing collateral maintenance financial covenant is waived until we can represent that we are in compliance with all of our financial covenants. This covenant required us to maintain pledged vessels with a value equal to at least 130% of our current borrowings. Under the collateral maintenance covenants of our $253 Million Term Loan Facility, our $100 Million Term Loan Facility, and the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, the aggregate valuations of our vessels pledged under each facility must at least be a certain percentage of loans outstanding (or, in the case of the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, the total amount we may borrow), which percentages are 135%, 130%, and 140%, respectively. Under our 2007 Credit Facility, the amount payable upon early termination of any interest rate swaps under the facility is added to outstanding loans for purposes of this covenant. If our valuations fall below the applicable percentage, we must provide additional acceptable collateral, repay a portion of our borrowings, or (in the case of the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility) permanently reduce the amount we may borrow under the facility to the extent required to restore our compliance with the applicable covenant. The Company estimates that it would not have been in compliance with the collateral maintenance covenant if the valuation of its collateral under the $100 Million Term Loan Facility as of August 17, 2013 were to decline approximately 7%. Additionally, the Company estimates that it would not have been in compliance with the collateral maintenance covenant if the valuation of its collateral under the $253 Million Term Loan Facility as of September 30, 2013 were to decline approximately 10%.
On May 28, 2013, Baltic Trading closed on an equity offering of 6,419,217 shares of Baltic Trading common stock at an offering price of $3.60 per share. Baltic Trading received net proceeds of $21.6 million after deducting underwriters’ fees and expenses. On September 25, 2013, Baltic Trading closed on an equity offering of 13,800,000 shares of Baltic Trading common stock at an offering price of $4.60 per share. Baltic Trading received net proceeds of $59.5 million after deducting underwriters’ fees and expenses. Our wholly-owned subsidiary Genco Investments LLC was issued 128,383 and 276,000 shares of Baltic Trading’s Class B Stock on May 28, 2013 and September 25, 2013, respectively, which represented 2% of the number of common shares issued pursuant to the Subscription Agreement between Genco Investments LLC and Baltic Trading. Currently, Genco Investments LLC owns 6,103,471 shares of Baltic Trading’s Class B Stock, which represents a 13.97% ownership interest in Baltic Trading and 70.90% of the aggregate voting power of Baltic Trading’s outstanding shares of voting stock. On April 16, 2010, Baltic Trading entered into the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility with Nordea Bank Finland plc, acting through its New York branch. The 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility was subsequently amended effective November 30, 2010 which increased the borrowing capacity from $100 million to $150 million. The amended 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility matures on November 30, 2016. Refer to the 2012 10-K for a description of this facility as well as a description of the amendment entered into effective November 30, 2010. There was an additional amendment entered into effective August 29, 2013 which reduced the borrowing capacity to $110 million and allowed Baltic Trading to incur additional indebtedness under new credit facilities. Refer to Note 9 – Debt of our condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of this amendment. To remain in compliance with a net worth covenant in the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, Baltic Trading would need to maintain a net worth of $273.3 million after the payment of any dividends.
On July 2, 2013, Baltic Trading entered into agreements to purchase a 2010 built, 31,883 dwt Handysize drybulk vessel and a 2009 built, 31,887 dwt Handysize drybulk vessel from subsidiaries of Clipper Group for an aggregate purchase price of $41.0 million. These vessels, the Baltic Fox and Baltic Hare, were delivered on September 6, 2013 and September 5, 2013, respectively. Baltic Trading funded a portion of the purchase price of the vessels using proceeds from its registered follow-on common stock offering completed on May 28, 2013. For the remainder of the purchase price, Baltic Trading drew down $22.0 million on its 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility on September 4, 2013. The 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility is to be repaid in 23 quarterly repayment installments of approximately $0.4 million each, the first of which is payable three months after the latest vessel delivery date, or December 4, 2013, and a balloon payment of approximately $13.4 million payable concurrently with the last repayment installment. Interest on borrowings is payable at the three-month LIBOR rate plus a margin of 3.35%. Refer to Note 9 – Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding this credit facility
On October 31, 2013, Baltic Trading entered into agreements to purchase a 2012 built 179,185 dwt Capesize drybulk vessel and a 2011 built 179,185 dwt Capesize drybulk vessel from affiliates of SK Shipping Co. Ltd. for an aggregate purchase price of $103,000. The purchases are subject to completion of customary additional documentation and closing conditions. The vessels are expected to be delivered by the end of the fourth quarter of 2013. Baltic Trading plans to finance this acquisition in part through the proceeds from its common stock offering completed on September 25, 2013 and in part through commercial bank debt financing. Baltic Trading are in negotiations to obtain a commitment for commercial bank financing from a global lending institution.
Dividend Policy
Historically, our dividend policy, which commenced in November 2005, has been to declare quarterly distributions to shareholders by each February, May, August and November, substantially equal to our available cash from operations during the previous quarter, less cash expenses for that quarter (principally vessel operating expenses and debt service) and any reserves our Board of Directors determines we should maintain. These reserves covered, among other things, drydocking, repairs, claims, liabilities and other obligations, interest expense and debt amortization, acquisitions of additional assets and working capital. In the future, we may incur other expenses or liabilities that would reduce or eliminate the cash available for distribution as dividends. Under the current terms of the 2007 Credit Facility, we are required to suspend the payment of cash dividends until we can represent that we are in a position to satisfy the collateral maintenance covenant. Refer to the 2012 10-K for further information regarding the current terms of the 2007 Credit Facility. As such, a dividend has not been declared during 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 or the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
As a result of the 2009 Amendment to the 2007 Credit Facility, we have suspended the payment of cash dividends effective for the fourth quarter of 2008, and payment of cash dividends will remain suspended until we can meet the collateral maintenance covenant contained in the 2007 Credit Facility. In addition, under the terms of the August 2012 Agreements, we are prohibited from paying dividends through December 31, 2013.
The declaration and payment of any dividend is subject to the discretion of our board of directors and our compliance with the collateral maintenance covenant, which is currently waived. The timing and amount of dividend payments will depend on our earnings, financial condition, cash requirements and availability, fleet renewal and expansion, restrictions in our loan agreements, the provisions of Marshall Islands law affecting the payment of distributions to shareholders and other factors. Our board of directors may review and amend our dividend policy from time to time in light of our plans for future growth and other factors.
We believe that, under current law, our dividend payments from earnings and profits would constitute “qualified dividend income.” For 2012, the maximum Federal income tax rate on qualified dividends paid to non-corporate shareholders was 15%. For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012, the maximum Federal income tax rate on qualified dividends paid to non-corporate shareholders is 20%, and all or a portion of dividend income received by shareholders whose modified adjusted gross income exceeds certain thresholds ($250,000 for married taxpayers filing jointly and $200,000 for single taxpayers) may be subject to a 3.8% surtax. Distributions in excess of our earnings and profits will be treated first as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of a U.S. shareholder’s tax basis in its common stock on a dollar-for-dollar basis and, thereafter, as capital gain.
Cash Flow
Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $24.6 million compared to $4.0 million for nine months ended September 30, 2012. The fluctuation of $20.6 million in cash from operating activities was primarily due to a net loss of $137.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to a net loss of $108.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, which resulted from lower charter rates achieved in the first nine months of 2013 versus the same period in 2012 for the majority of the vessels in our fleet. This was partially offset by lower drydocking costs incurred during the first nine months of 2013 compared to the same period of 2012.
Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $41.5 million and $3.2 million, respectively. The increase was due to the use of more funds for vessel purchases during the first nine months of 2013 compared to 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, cash used in investing activities consisted of the purchase of vessels in the amount of $41.1 million and purchases of other fixed assets totaling $0.4 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, cash used in investing activities was predominantly due to purchases of fixed assets in the amount of $1.9 million and vessel related purchases totaling $0.9 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $103.0 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $132.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 consisted of $81.3 million of proceeds from the issuance of common stock by our subsidiary Baltic Trading Limited, $22.0 million of net proceeds from the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility and $1.0 million of proceeds from the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility slightly offset by the $0.6 million dividend payment by Baltic Trading to its outside shareholders. Under amendments to all three of our credit facilities in August 2012, our scheduled amortization payments have been eliminated for each of the credit facilities through and including the quarter ending December 31, 2013. Cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 mainly consisted of the following: $118.6 million repayment of debt under the 2007 Credit Facility, $40.6 million repayment of debt under the $253 Million Term Loan Facility, $15.4 million repayment of debt under the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $4.3 million of deferred financing costs and the $3.9 million dividend payment of our subsidiary Baltic Trading to its outside shareholders. Those uses partially offset $49.9 million of net proceeds provided by our follow-on offering in February 2012.
Credit Facilities
Refer to the 2012 10-K for a summary and description of our outstanding credit facilities, including the underlying financial and non-financial covenants. On August 1, 2012 we entered into the August 2012 Agreements, which amended or waived certain provision of the agreements for the 2007 Credit Facility, the $100 Million Term Loan Facility and the $253 Million Term Loan Facility. On August 29, 2013, Baltic Trading entered into an amendment to the 2010 Baltic Trading Facility. Additionally, on August 30, 2013, Baltic Trading entered into the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility to fund a portion of the purchase of the Baltic Fox and Baltic Hare. Refer to Note 9 — Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding the terms and fees associated with these agreements.
As of September 30, 2013, we believe we are in compliance with all of the financial covenants under our 2007 Credit Facility, as amended; the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, as amended; the $253 Million Term Loan Facility, as amended; the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, as amended; and the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility. However, as of September 30, 2013, we believe it is probable that we will not be in compliance with certain covenants at measurement dates within the next twelve months under our 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility and the $253 Million Term Loan Facility. As such, the debt outstanding under these facilities of $1,312.2 million has been classified as a current liability.
Convertible Notes Payable
Refer to Note 10 — Convertible Senior Notes of our condensed consolidated financial statements for a summary of the convertible notes payable.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements, Forward Freight Agreements and Currency Swap Agreements
At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had four and five interest rate swap agreements with DnB NOR Bank, respectively, to manage interest costs and the risk associated with changing interest rates. The total notional principal amount of the swaps is $306.2 million and $356.2 million, respectively, and the swaps have specified rates and durations.
Refer to the table in Note 11 — Interest Rate Swap Agreements of our condensed consolidated financial statements, which summarizes the interest rate swaps in place as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
We have considered the creditworthiness of both ourselves and the counterparty in determining the fair value of the interest rate derivatives, and such consideration resulted in an immaterial adjustment to the fair value of derivatives on the balance sheet. Valuations prior to any adjustments for credit risk are validated by comparison with counterparty valuations. Amounts are not and should not be identical due to the different modeling assumptions. Any material differences are investigated.
As part of our business strategy, we may enter into arrangements commonly known as forward freight agreements, or FFAs, to hedge and manage market risks relating to the deployment of our existing fleet of vessels. These arrangements may include future contract, or commitments to perform in the future a shipping service between ship owners, charterers and traders. Generally, these arrangements would bind us and each counterparty in the arrangement to buy or sell a specified tonnage freighting commitment “forward” at an agreed time and price and for a particular route. Although FFAs can be entered into for a variety of purposes, including for hedging, as an option, for trading or for arbitrage, if we decided to enter into FFAs, our objective would be to hedge and manage market risks as part of our commercial management. It is not
crrently our intention to enter into FFAs to generate a stream of income independent of the revenues we derive from the operation of our fleet of vessels. If we determine to enter into FFAs, we may reduce our exposure to any declines in our results from operations due to weak market conditions or downturns, but may also limit our ability to benefit economically during periods of strong demand in the market. We have not entered into any FFAs as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
Contractual Obligations
The following table sets forth our contractual obligations and their maturity dates as of September 30, 2013. The table incorporates the employment agreement entered into in September 2007 with our Chief Financial Officer, John Wobensmith. The table reflects Baltic Trading’s agreements to acquire a 2011-built and a 2012-built Capesize vessel from affiliates of SK Shipping Co. Ltd. for an aggregate purchase price of $103,000. Baltic Trading plans to finance these vessel acquisitions in part through the proceeds from its common stock offering completed on September 25, 2013 and in part through commercial bank debt financing as discussed above under “Liquidity and Capital Resources.” The interest and borrowing fees reflect the 2007 Credit Facility, the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, the $253 Million Term Loan Facility, the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility and the 2010 Notes utilizing the coupon rate of 5% which were issued on July 27, 2010 and the interest rate swap agreements as discussed above under the section “Interest Rate Swap Agreements, Forward Freight Agreements and Currency Swap Agreements.” For the purposes of the table below, we have utilized the contractual maturity dates under the credit facilities. The following table also incorporates the future lease payments associated with our two lease agreements. Refer to Note 19 — Commitments and Contingencies in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding the terms of our two lease agreements.

The timing of this obligation is based on the estimated delivery dates for the Baltic Lion and Baltic Tiger, which are expected to be delivered during the fourth quarter of 2013. |
Interest expense has been estimated using the fixed hedge rate for the effective period and notional amount of the debt which is effectively hedged and 0.19% for the portion of the debt that has no designated swap against it, plus the applicable bank margin of 3.00% for the 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility and the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility. For the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, interest expense has been estimated using 0.25% plus the applicable margin of 3.35%. We are obligated to pay certain commitment fees in connection with all of our credit facilities, which have been reflected within interest and borrowing fees. These commitment fees include the facility fee for the 2007 Credit Facility which represents 1.0% per annum on the average daily outstanding principal amount of the outstanding loans under the facility.
Capital Expenditures
We make capital expenditures from time to time in connection with our vessel acquisitions. Excluding Baltic Trading’s vessels, our fleet currently consists of nine Capesize drybulk carriers, eight Panamax drybulk carriers, 17 Supramax drybulk carriers, six Handymax drybulk carriers and 13 Handysize drybulk carriers. Baltic Trading’s fleet currently consists of two Capesize drybulk carriers, four Supramax drybulk carriers and five Handysize drybulk carriers. After the expected delivery of the two Capesize vessels that Baltic Trading has agreed to acquire, Baltic Trading will own thirteen drybulk vessels, consisting of four Capesize drybulk carriers, four Supramax drybulk carriers and five Handysize drybulk carriers.
In addition to acquisitions that we may undertake in future periods, we will incur additional expenditures due to special surveys and drydockings. We estimate our drydocking costs and scheduled off-hire days for our fleet, excluding Baltic Trading’s vessels, through 2014 to be:

The costs reflected are estimates based on drydocking our vessels in China. Actual costs will vary based on various factors, including where the drydockings are actually performed. We expect to fund these costs with cash from operations.
We estimate that each drydock will result in 20 days of off-hire. Actual length will vary based on the condition of the vessel, yard schedules and other factors.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, we incurred a total of $1.9 million and $10.4 million of drydocking costs, respectively.
We estimate that three of our vessels will be drydocked in the remainder of 2013. An additional 19 of our vessels will be drydocked in 2014.
In addition to acquisitions that we may undertake in future periods, we will incur additional capital expenditures due to special surveys and drydockings. In our continuous effort to provide superior service to customers and enhance our long-term commercial prospects, Baltic Trading has initiated a fuel efficiency upgrade program for certain of its vessels. We believe this program will generate fuel savings of approximately 8-10% going forward and increase the future earnings potential for these vessels. The cost of the upgrades, which will be performed under the planned drydocking schedule for each of the vessels, is expected to be approximately $250,000 per vessel and is included in Baltic Trading's estimated drydocking costs below. We estimate our drydocking costs and scheduled off-hire days for Baltic Trading’s fleet through 2014 to be:

We estimate that each drydock will result in 20 days of off-hire. Actual length will vary based on the condition of the vessel, yard schedules and other factors.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, Baltic Trading did not incur drydocking costs.
We estimate that one of Baltic Trading’s vessels will be drydocked in the remainder of 2013 and five vessels will be drydocked in 2014.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
Inflation
Inflation has only a moderate effect on our expenses given current economic conditions. In the event that significant global inflationary pressures appear, these pressures would increase our operating, voyage, general and administrative, and financing costs.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
There have been no changes or updates to the critical accounting policies as disclosed in the 2012 10-K.
Vessels and Depreciation
We record the value of our vessels at their cost (which includes acquisition costs directly attributable to the vessel and expenditures made to prepare the vessel for its initial voyage) less accumulated depreciation. We depreciate our drybulk vessels on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, estimated to be 25 years from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard. Depreciation is based on cost less the estimated residual scrap value of $245/lwt. We estimate residual scrap value based on the 15-year average scrap value of steel. An increase in the residual value of the vessels would decrease the annual depreciation charge over the remaining useful life of the vessel. Similarly, an increase in the useful life of a drybulk vessel would also decrease the annual depreciation charge. Comparatively, a decrease in the useful life of a drybulk vessel or in its residual value would have the effect of increasing the annual depreciation charge. However, when regulations place limitations over the ability of a vessel to trade on a worldwide basis, we will adjust the vessel’s useful life to end at the date such regulations preclude such vessel’s further commercial use.
The carrying value of each of our vessels does not represent the fair market value of such vessel or the amount we could obtain if we were to sell any of our vessels, which could be more or less. Under U.S. GAAP, we would not record a loss if the fair market value of a vessel (excluding its charter) is below our carrying value unless and until we determine to sell that vessel or the vessel is impaired as discussed in the 2012 10-K. Excluding the three Bourbon vessels we resold immediately upon delivery to MEP at our cost, we have sold three of our vessels since our inception and realized a profit in each instance. However, we did determine to cancel an acquisition of six drybulk newbuildings in November 2008, incurring a $53.8 million loss from the forfeiture of our deposit and related interest.
Pursuant to our bank credit facilities, we regularly submit to the lenders valuations of our vessels on an individual charter free basis in order to evidence our compliance with the collateral maintenance covenants under our bank credit facilities. Such a valuation is not necessarily the same as the amount any vessel may bring upon sale, which may be more or less, and should not be relied upon as such. We were in compliance with the collateral maintenance covenants under our $100 Million Term Loan Facility and our $253 Million Term Loan Facility, as well as the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility and 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, at September 30, 2013, and the collateral maintenance covenant under our 2007 Credit Facility was waived at September 30, 2013, as discussed in Note 9 — Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements. In the chart below, we list each of our vessels that represent the collateral for the aforementioned credit facilities, the year it was built, the year we acquired it, and its carrying value at September 30 2013 and December 31, 2012.
At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the vessel valuations of all of our vessels for covenant compliance purposes under our bank credit facilities as of the most recent compliance testing date were lower than their carrying values at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, with the exception of the Baltic Fox and Baltic Hare. For the Genco Ocean, Genco Bay, Genco Avra, Genco Mare and Genco Spirit, the last compliance testing date prior to September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was August 17, 2013 and August 17, 2012, respectively, in accordance with the terms of the $100 Million Term Loan Facility. For the Baltic Fox and Baltic Hare, we utilized the vessel valuations on July 8, 2013 as the vessels were not acquired until September 2013 in accordance with the terms of the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility. For all other vessels, the compliance testing date was June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, in accordance with the terms of the applicable credit facility.
The amount by which the carrying value at September 30, 2013 of all of the vessels in our fleet, with the exception of the Baltic Fox and Baltic Hare, exceed the valuation of such vessels for covenant compliance purposes ranged, on an individual vessel basis, from $4.1 million to $72.7 million per vessel, and $1,351.5 million on an aggregate fleet basis. The amount by which the carrying value at December 31, 2012 of all of the vessels in our fleet exceeded the valuation of such vessels for covenant compliance purposes ranged, on an individual vessel basis, from $5.2 million to $76.8 million per vessel, and $1,494.2 million on an aggregate fleet basis. The average amount by which the carrying value of our vessels exceeded the valuation of such vessels for covenant compliance purposes was $21.8 million at September 30, 2013 and $24.1 million as of December 31, 2012. However, neither such valuation nor the carrying value in the table below reflects the value of long-term time charters related to some of our vessels.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|
Interest rate risk
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. Our objective is to manage the impact of interest rate changes on our earnings and cash flow in relation to our borrowings. We held four and five interest rate swap agreements with DnB Bank ASA at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, to manage future interest costs and the risk associated with changing interest rates. The total notional principal amount of the swaps is $306.2 million and $356.2 million, respectively, and the swaps have specified rates and durations. Refer to the table in Note 11 — Interest Rate Swap Agreements of our condensed consolidated financial statements which summarizes the interest rate swaps in place as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
The swap agreements with effective dates prior to September 30, 2013 synthetically convert variable rate debt to fixed rate debt at the fixed interest rate of the swap plus the applicable margin of 3.00% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013.
The total liability associated with the swaps at September 30, 2013 is $9.3 million, of which all is current, and $16.1 million at December 31, 2012, of which seven- thousand dollars is current, and is presented as the fair value of derivatives on the balance sheet. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company has accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) of ($9.3) million and ($16.1) million, respectively, related to the effectively hedged portion of the swaps. Hedge ineffectiveness associated with the interest rate swaps resulted in a minimal amount of other income (expense) during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. At September 30, 2013, ($6.0) million of AOCI is expected to be reclassified into income over the next 12 months associated with interest rate derivatives.
We are subject to market risks relating to changes in LIBOR rates because we have significant amounts of floating rate debt outstanding. Effective December 21, 2011, we were subject to a facility fee of 2.00% per annum on the average daily outstanding principal amount of the outstanding loan under the 2007 Credit Facility pursuant to the amendment entered into with our lenders under this facility which was reduced to 1.00% on February 28, 2012 when we consummated an equity offering resulting in gross proceeds of $53.3 million. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, we paid LIBOR plus 2.00% on the 2007 Credit Facility for the debt in excess of any designated swap’s notional amount for such swap’s effective period until August 1, 2012 when the applicable margin over LIBOR for the 2007 Credit Facility was
increased from 2.00% to 3.00% pursuant to the August 2012 Agreements. Refer to Note 9 —Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding these amendments. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, we also paid LIBOR plus 3.00% on the outstanding debt under the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility and the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility and we paid three-month LIBOR plus 3.35% on the outstanding debt under the 2013 Baltic Trading Credit Facility. A 1% increase in LIBOR would result in an increase of $8.4 million in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, considering the increase would be only on the unhedged portion of the debt.
Derivative financial instruments
As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we held four and five interest rate swap agreements, respectively, with DnB Bank ASA to manage interest costs and the risk associated with changing interest rates. The total notional principal amount of the swaps is $306.2 million and $356.2 million, respectively, and the swaps have specified rates and durations. Refer to the table in Note 11 — Interest Rate Swap Agreements of our condensed consolidated financial statements which summarizes the interest rate swaps in place as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
The differential to be paid or received for these swap agreements is recognized as an adjustment to interest expense as incurred. The interest rate differential pertaining to the interest rate swaps for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $2.5 million and $3.0 million, respectively. The interest rate differential pertaining to the interest rate swaps for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $7.4 million and $10.4 million, respectively. The Company is currently utilizing cash flow hedge accounting for the swaps whereby the effective portion of the change in value of the swaps is reflected as a component of AOCI. The ineffective portion is recognized as other (expense) income, which is a component of other (expense) income. If for any period of time we did not designate the swaps for hedge accounting, the change in the value of the swap agreements prior to designation would be recognized as other (expense) income.
Amounts receivable or payable arising at the settlement of hedged interest rate swaps are deferred and amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the period of interest rate exposure provided the designated liability continues to exist. Amounts receivable or payable arising at the settlement of unhedged interest rate swaps are reflected as other (expense) income and is listed as a component of other (expense) income.
Refer to “Interest rate risk” section above for further information regarding the interest rate swap agreements.
Currency and exchange rates risk
The international shipping industry’s functional currency is the U.S. Dollar. Virtually all of our revenues and most of our operating costs are in U.S. Dollars. We incur certain operating expenses in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, and the foreign exchange risk associated with these operating expenses is immaterial.
As part of our business strategy, we may enter into short-term forward currency contracts to protect ourselves from the risk arising from the fluctuation in the exchange rate associated with the cost basis of the Jinhui shares.
Investments
We hold an investment in Jinhui of $41.8 million at September 30, 2013, which is classified as available for sale under Accounting Standards Codification 320-10, “Investments — Debt and Equity Securities” (“ASC 320-10”). The investment is classified as a noncurrent asset based on our intent to hold the investment at each reporting date. The investments that are classified as available for sale are subject to risk of changes in market value, which if determined to be impaired (other than temporarily impaired), could result in realized impairment losses. The Company reviews the carrying value of such investments on a quarterly basis to determine if any valuation adjustments are appropriate under ASC 320-10. We will continue to evaluate the investment on a quarterly basis to determine the likelihood of any further significant adverse effects on the fair value. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, we have not deemed our investment to be impaired. In the event we determine that the Jinhui investment is subject to any impairment, the amount of the impairment would be reclassified from AOCI and recorded as a loss in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the amount of the impairment.
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our President and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II: |
OTHER INFORMATION |
ITEM 1. |
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
From time to time the Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of its business, principally personal injury and property casualty claims. Such claims, even if lacking merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. The Company is not aware of any legal proceedings or claims that it believes will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material effect on the Company, its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2013 and June 30 2013, respectively, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. Below is updated information for the following risk factor:
Our payment obligations and restrictive covenants under our credit facilities may be difficult to satisfy in the current market environment.
In the current drybulk rate environment, we anticipate it is probable that we will be unable to make required payments under our credit facilities commencing March 31, 2014 unless we obtain modifications to or waivers of the terms of these facilities.
