John Hadjipateras, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, "Despite experiencing lower fleet utilization due to a weak LPG arbitrage environment in our fourth fiscal quarter, our VLGCs continue to earn a demonstrable premium. We believe this premium may become more pronounced following the implementation of new regulations to reduce sulphur emissions, and we are taking additional steps to optimize our fleet in advance of these regulations. We continue to strengthen our balance sheet without decreasing our exposure to a potential market recovery. In the near term, we remain cautiously optimistic about the outlook for the LPG tanker sector as industry fundamentals improve."
