Ship Charter Key Financial Metrics

1. Revenue Metrics

  1. Time Charter Equivalent (TCE) Revenue:

    • Measures the average daily revenue earned per vessel after deducting voyage expenses.

    • Formula: TCE = (Charter Revenue – Voyage Costs) / Charter Days.

  2. Spot Charter Rates:

    • The daily rate earned for vessels chartered on the spot market.

    • Indicates market demand and pricing trends.

  3. Fleet Utilization Rate:

    • The percentage of time vessels are employed (on charter) versus idle.

    • Formula: Utilization Rate = (Charter Days / Total Available Days) x 100.

2. Vessel Charter Cost Metrics

  1. Daily Operating Expense (OPEX):

    • The average daily vessel charter cost to operate a vessel, including crew wages, maintenance, and insurance.

    • Formula: OPEX = Total Operating Costs / Total Operating Days.

  2. Voyage Costs:

    • Expenses incurred during voyages, such as fuel, port charges, and canal dues.

  3. Total Cost per Vessel:

    • Includes operating costs, voyage costs, and capital costs (e.g., depreciation).

3. Vessel Charter Profitability Metrics

  1. Gross Profit Margin:

    • Measures profitability after deducting charter voyage and operating costs.

    • Formula: Gross Profit Margin = (Revenue – Voyage Costs – Operating Costs) / Revenue x 100.

  2. EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization):

    • Reflects core vessel charter profitability before non-cash and financing expenses.

    • Formula: EBITDA = Revenue – Voyage Costs – Operating Costs.

  3. Net Profit Margin:

    • The percentage of vessel charter revenue remaining as profit after all expenses, including taxes and interest.

    • Formula: Net Profit Margin = Net Income / Revenue x 100.

4. Vessel Liquidity and Cash Flow Metrics

  1. Cash Flow from Operations (CFO):

    • Measures cash generated from chartering activities.

    • Indicates the company’s ability to fund operations and repay debt.

  2. Free Cash Flow (FCF):

    • Cash remaining after brokerage capital expenditures (e.g., vessel purchases, upgrades).

    • Formula: FCF = CFO – Capital Expenditures.

  3. Liquidity Ratio:

    • Assesses the company’s ability to meet short-term obligations.

    • Formula: Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities.

5. Vessel Charter Leverage and Solvency Metrics

  1. Debt-to-Equity Ratio:

    • Formula: Debt-to-Equity Ratio = Total Debt / Total Equity.

    • Assesses the company’s ability to pay interest on its debt.

    • Formula: Interest Coverage Ratio = EBITDA / Interest Expense.

  3. Loan-to-Value (LTV) Ratio:

    • Indicates the financial risk associated with vessel financing.

6. Charter Fleet Performance Metrics

    • The average daily revenue earned per vessel charter across the fleet.

    • Formula: ADE = Total Revenue / Total Charter Days.

  2. Vessel Age Profile:

  3. Charter Coverage Ratio:

    • The ratio of contracted revenue days to total available days.

    • Indicates revenue visibility and shipping vessel charter market demand.

7. Shipping Vessel Market and Valuation Metrics

  1. Price-to-Earnings (P/E) Ratio:

    • Compares the Shipping Vessel Charter company’s share price to its earnings per share (EPS).
