Shipping — November 2023
-
"• For the fourth quarter of 2023, we estimate a TCE rate for the quarter to be ~ $70-75,000/day on a discharge-to-discharge basis.
• The board declared a dividend of $0.50 per share or $38.3 million for the third quarter 2023".

Øystein Kalleklev, CEO of Avance Gas, commented:
“The LPG freight market continues to rip with the best market conditions since 2015. Consequently, we are also delivering our strongest Year-to-Date numbers since 2015 with Net Profit of $102 million, and the best is yet to come as we do expect that Q4 will be by far our best quarter this year.
-
From September onwards the freight market has been exceptionally strong fueled by Panama congestion, strong US export growth and a very high arbitrage between LPG prices in US compared to Far East supporting freight levels.
-
For the third quarter we sailed-in average Time Charter Equivalent Earnings of $55,300/day on discharge-to-discharge basis when taking into account hedging losses of $8,280/day related to our Freight Forward Agreements (FFA).
-
The FFAs are utilized to hedge part of our spot exposure as an alternative to TC coverage, and we have hedged two of our spot ships at an average of approximately $50,000/day and $55,000/day for Q3 and Q4 respectively.
-
With the market rallying from September, we expect average spot TCE in Q4 to be about $90-100,000/day while our TC ships are expected to generate an average TC rate of around $50,000. We therefore estimate to generate substantially higher TCE in Q4 with fleet average of around $70,000 to $75,000 on a discharge-to-discharge basis after deducting our FFA hedges.
-
With the freight market rallying, TCE on a load-to-discharge basis is lower, but this timing effect will be reversed over time. Given the extended ballast legs from Asia to US Gulf Coast via Suez, we are now booking voyages with loading end of the year and are therefore also securing healthy earnings well into first quarter of next year.
-
Given our strong financial position, healthy booking levels and general favorable outlook for LPG shipping, the Board has therefore decided to declare a quarterly dividend of $0.50 per share once again bringing the dividend per share for the last twelve months to $2.00 per share.”

Ok regnskab fra Avance med stærk guiding og udbytte på de ventede $0,5. Dog lidt under selskabets egne forventninger. Det kan nok give en negativ åbning . Aktien er jo steget kraftigt op mod regnskabet.
-
Det giver ingen menig at et selskab der er mindre end storebror(som er gældsfrit) og udbetaler 50% mindre i udbytte det sidste år står i 8% højere kurs. Både Dorian og BW var ved at købe lillebror, kan godt forstå BW skal reprises i USA for børsen i Norge er helt gak gak!
-
Kommer nok også til at koste lidt for Avance på kursen idag.
-
Beskedent fald på regnskab. Avance er efter dette 16% oppe den sidste måned. Investorerne fokuserer på udbytte og et forventet super godt Q4 og rater som også vil være høje i 2024.
-
Enig med Mcjean omkring skævridningen i kurserne på Avance, BW-LPG og Dorian. Det er dog et vilkår jeg gerne accepterer. Mine Avanca er oppe med 174% i år sammenlignet med 104% for BW-LPG og 132% for Dorian.
-
Bent..Er også enig med dig i, at faldet er beskedent samt at investorerne forsat ser meget positivt på fremtiden for LPG.
-
Investorerne fokuserer ikke på en dyt...de går med skyklapper. Hvis de fokuserede så solgte de Dorian og Avance og købte BWLPG. Ikke fordi jeg siger det men på baggrund af udbytte og nav! Det skriger til himlen at du står med 3 selskaber hvoraf det største er mindst priset, De giver klart bedre udbytte end Agas selvom de er gearet mindre, dog mere end de var gearet forhen. De har flest skibe og samme gearing og profil som Dorian og står næste 40% under Dorians kurs i US, det giver ingen mening!
-
Ligesom Helge er jeg enig med dig i det, men dermed ikke sagt, at man ikke skal ride med, når de norske investorer har skyklapper på.
