Danaos' CEO Dr. John Coustas commented:
"The Company's adjusted net income of $37.9 million for the third quarter of 2019 increased by $0.4 million, or 1.1%, when compared to the third quarter of 2018. This improvement was primarily the result of a $4.6 million decrease in total operating costs and a $1.9 million decrease in net finance expenses, partially offset by a $6 million decrease in operating revenues mainly due to the re-chartering of certain of our vessels that concluded long-term above market charters over the last 12 months and were re-deployed at market rates during the quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2019 was $79.3 million, a decrease of $3.4 million compared to the third quarter of 2018.
The charter market has strengthened considerably during the last six months particularly for vessels larger than 5,500 TEU, although we have also seen an improvement in charter rates for Panamax vessels. This may be partially due to a decrease in fleet capacity as vessels are being temporarily removed from the fleet to be retrofitted with scrubbers in preparation for IMO 2020 sulphur emissions regulations. Larger vessel classes have seen the greatest downtime, and we expect this to continue through 2020 and help contribute to a healthy charter market. This coincides with improving underlying market demand supply fundamentals.
For 2020, we are aligned with the shipping analyst reports and our expectation is that container trade demand growth will outpace supply growth for the first time in almost 10 years. The IMF currently forecasts world GDP growth of 3.5% for 2020, and we expect that the multiplier of containerized trade growth vs GDP growth will slightly exceed 1x and that containerized trade will grow by up to 4% in 2020. On the supply side, capacity growth is not expected to exceed 3% in 2020. Market participants, mainly liner companies, have generally remained reluctant to place newbuilding orders until the U.S. - China trade talks are settled and the IMO regulations come into effect, also taking the opportunity from the favorable demand / supply balance to gain pricing power on freight rates. The combined result of these factors should support the strengthening of the charter market going forward.
Our total contracted revenues as of September 30, 2019 were $1.4 billion, and we maintain our high charter contract coverage of 89% in terms of operating revenues and 75% in terms of operating days over the next 12 months. Our larger vessels remain employed on multi-year charters, and improving market conditions provide upside for the balance of our fleet. We remain committed to operational excellence and technological innovation, which allows us to continually deliver a high quality service to our customers. We are also well-positioned to pursue growth opportunities and deliver value to our shareholders due to our significantly improved financial position."
Three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018
During the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, Danaos had an average of 55 containerships. Our fleet utilization for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was 98.7% compared to 97.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2018.
Our adjusted net income amounted to $37.9 million, or $2.46 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $37.5 million, or $3.17 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2018 (after giving retroactive effect to the reverse stock split of 1-for-14 implemented on May 2, 2019). We have adjusted our net income in the three months ended September 30, 2019 for non-cash fees amortization and accrued financing fees of $4.0 million. Please refer to the Adjusted Net Income reconciliation table, which appears later in this earnings release.
The increase of $0.4 million in adjusted net income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018 is attributable mainly to a $4.6 million decrease in total operating expenses and a $1.9 million decrease in net finance expenses, which were partially offset by a $6.0 million decrease in operating revenues and a $0.1 million decrease in the operating performance of our equity investment in Gemini.
On a non-adjusted basis, our net income amounted to $33.9 million, or $2.20 earnings per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to net income of $127.2 million (including gain on debt extinguishment and refinancing-related professional fees described below), or $10.76 earnings per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2018 (after giving retroactive effect to the reverse stock split of 1-for-14).
Operating Revenues
Operating revenues decreased by 5.1%, or $6.0 million, to $111.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $117.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2018.
Operating revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019 reflects a $6.0 million decrease in revenues due to the re-chartering of certain of our vessels that concluded long-term charters over the last twelve months and were re-deployed at lower spot rates in the three months ended September 30, 2019.
Vessel Operating Expenses
Vessel operating expenses decreased by 2.4%, or $0.6 million, to $24.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $25.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 2018. The average daily operating cost per vessel for vessels on time charter was $5,298 per day for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $5,427 per day for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Management believes that our daily operating cost ranks as one of the most competitive in the industry.

Depreciation
Depreciation expense decreased by 10.0%, or $2.7 million, to $24.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $27.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 2018 mainly due to decreased depreciation expense for 10 vessels for which we recorded an impairment charge on December 31, 2018.
Amortization of Deferred Dry-docking and Special Survey Costs
Amortization of deferred dry-docking and special survey costs decreased by $0.3 million, to $2.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $2.6 million in the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease was mainly due to a decreased number of vessels dry-docked.

Interest expense decreased by 11.2%, or $2.3 million, to $18.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $20.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in interest expense is attributable to:
(i) a $4.9 million decrease in interest expense on two of our credit facilities for which we recognized an interest expense accrual in the third quarter of 2018, which has been classified on our balance sheet under "Accumulated accrued interest" and represents future interest expense for the relevant facilities that has been recognized in advance as a result of the application of Troubled Debt Restructuring ("TDR") accounting in connection with our 2018 debt refinancing;
(ii) a $3.1 million increase in interest expense due to an increase in debt service cost by approximately 1.7%, partially offset by a $347.7 million decrease in our average debt (including leaseback obligations), to $1,603.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $1,950.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2018; and
(iii) a $0.5 million decrease in the amortization of deferred finance costs and debt discount related to our 2018 debt refinancing.
As of September 30, 2019, our bank debt outstanding, gross of deferred finance costs, was $1,450.0 million and leaseback obligation was $141.4 million compared to bank debt of $1,694.5 million outstanding as of September 30, 2018.
Interest income increased by $0.1 million to $1.6 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $1.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 2018.
Other finance costs, net

Loss on derivatives
Amortization of deferred realized losses on interest rate swaps remained stable at $0.9 million in each of the three month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.
Other income/(expenses), net
Other income/(expenses), net was nil in the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $21.6 million in expenses in the three months ended September 30, 2018 mainly due to $21.8 million of refinancing-related professional fees in the prior period.

Adjusted EBITDA(1) | $79,328 | $82,745 | $232,447 | $237,677 | |||
1) | Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest income and expense, depreciation, amortization of deferred drydocking & special survey costs, amortization of deferred finance costs, debt discount and other finance fees accrued, amortization of deferred realized losses on interest rate swaps, stock based compensation, gain on debt extinguishment and refinancing professional fees. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or "GAAP." We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry because the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA generally eliminates the effects of financings, income taxes and the accounting effects of capital expenditures and acquisitions, items which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. |
Note: Items to consider for comparability include gains and charges. Gains positively impacting net income are reflected as deductions to net income. Charges negatively impacting net income are reflected as increases to net income. | |
