ATHENS, Greece, Aug. 11, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Paragon Shipping Inc. (Nasdaq
RGN - News), a global shipping transportation company specializing in drybulk cargoes, announced today its results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2009.
Commenting on the results, Michael Bodouroglou, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Paragon Shipping, stated, "We are pleased to announce another profitable quarter for Paragon with our strongest quarterly operating performance to date. This has been achieved through our significant charter coverage and disciplined approach to cost controls. On an adjusted basis, Paragon's financial performance during the second quarter of 2009 beat our 2008 second quarter results. Our fleet average timecharter income was higher, our daily expenses were lower and, as a consequence, our EBITDA was higher. As we previously announced, during the quarter we took advantage of the strengthening charter market by fixing the 'Calm Seas' and 'Coral Seas' on new two-year time charters. These new charter arrangements will increase our contractually fixed revenue days in 2010 and 2011 to 84% and 66%, respectively, providing us with significant stability in a potentially uncertain time in our markets. Gross contracted fleet revenue from our existing charters is approximately $323 million."
Mr. Bodouroglou concluded, "In addition, in August, we contracted to sell one of our oldest vessels, the 1995 built handymax bulkcarrier 'Blue Seas,' which is scheduled to be delivered to the buyers between September and December 2009. The vessel will be redelivered from the current charter in the fourth quarter of this year and therefore, we have taken the decision to sell the vessel at what we believe to be an opportune time of relative strength in asset values. Finally, I am pleased to announce that we will again pay a quarterly dividend to shareholders of $0.05 per share."
Second Quarter 2009 Financial Results:
Time charter revenue for the second quarter of 2009 was $42.3 million, compared to $40.6 million for the second quarter of 2008. The Company reported net income of $15.8 million, or $0.48 per basic and diluted share, for the second quarter of 2009, calculated on 32,816,789 weighted average number of basic and diluted shares outstanding for the period and reflecting the impact of the non-cash items discussed below. For the second quarter of 2008, the Company reported net income of $24.6 million, or $0.91 per basic and diluted share, calculated on 26,927,648 weighted average number of basic shares and on 27,155,816 weighted average number of diluted shares.
Excluding all non-cash items described below, adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2009 was $16.6 million, or $0.50 and $0.51 per basic and diluted share, respectively. This compares to adjusted net income of $13.4 million, or $0.49 per basic and diluted share, for the second quarter of 2008. Please refer to the table at the back of this press release for reconciliations of GAAP net income to non-GAAP adjusted net income and GAAP earnings per share to non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share.
EBITDA was $27.2 million for the second quarter of 2009, compared to $35.6 million for the second quarter of 2008. This was calculated by adding to net income of $15.8 million for the second quarter of 2009, net interest expense and depreciation that in the aggregate amounted to $11.4 million for the second quarter of 2009. Adjusted EBITDA, excluding all non-cash items described below, was $27.3 million for the second quarter of 2009, compared to $23.7 million for the second quarter of 2008.

Scottrade had 4 analyst average of .41 cents (with a high of .45). So either way, good news
If they dilute again I will personally hunt down the directors of this company on my vacation to Greece in a few weeks.Someone please start looking for the dilution announcement.
Great earnings report from PRGN. I don't think we could have asked for anything better. I was thinking of selling half of my shares at 5.25 just to diversify a bit but now I might just hold until the end of the year. This could easily hit $10 by year end and I don't want to miss out on it.

I wouldn't say they crushed earnings, but they did beat the estimate soundly.
I think the better news for us is the rest of the report. The numbers were all up from 2nd quarter last year. None of the other shippers that have reported (that I saw) could say that. Couple that with the falling BDI and the high locked-in charter %, and you get a picture of a company run by quality management that is doing it right.
I hope enough other people see it this way for the price to get over $5 and hold.
Can we have an up NASDAQ and BDI day?
I think the better news for us is the rest of the report. The numbers were all up from 2nd quarter last year. None of the other shippers that have reported (that I saw) could say that. Couple that with the falling BDI and the high locked-in charter %, and you get a picture of a company run by quality management that is doing it right.

dont get too greedy fellas.
i understand the report was great and all, but why isnt it above 5?
My observations lately are that the pre market and after hours reactions usually signify the peaks.
I observed it just this morning with AVNR. Pretty much consistently dipped all day from pre market and ended up way below where it peaked. I understand a phase 3 report is way different here, but the principal is not too different.
Throw in the fact that the other shippers have really been blah after positive reactions.

Maybe the upcoming dividend will help attract some buyers along with a good market tomorrow.But, WTF do I know.
I left 10k on the CENX table.
I don't know, but the P/E ratios is still really low. With the charters locked in this is basically a cash cow. Would like to know what they did wit the cash they raised.

Balance sheet looks good with 105 mil in cash as of 6/30.(could have more now, they reported 42 million shares at the end of June. Bit of a mystery how many shares they have outstanding as of today)

Seems like you guys probably could have even flipped here in after hours already. i see last trade at 4.75, what are people's takes on this?Maybe the upcoming dividend will help attract some buyers along with a good market tomorrow.But, WTF do I know.I left 10k on the CENX table.

Their biggest earnings quarter ever. FBGs buying up shares while they dilute. FBG factor in full effect
Going against the short term hits of this thread Im going long term with PRGN.
I cant find any other stock/fund that:
1.) Pays a nice dividend (5%)
2.) Has a P/E ratio this low (under 4)
3.) Has such a hard floor for share price.
Ive already made a ton on PRGN and lost some of it back with other plays. This seems like the safest way to make some real money. I still will leave 5-10k in my account for stupid plays. But Im sticking with PRGN.

Sounds great, but why not sell it all off today and then buy back in in two weeks after the post earnings glow wears off and it loses 20% of it's value?
Last quarter the price stayed around $5.50 post-earnings. It only fell after they announced another 10 million dilution (which they admitted was a mistake).

I agree that it is a good long term play too...especially because of the dividend. I will likely exit 1/2 my postition and let the other half ride.
Here's to similar numbers for SBLK and FREE!Boulder Toads

Yeah, still on the fence as to how long I'm going to stay with PRGN ... real content to hold here for a while, but may be tempted to roll some of the profit over to add to my FREE position. May just maintain my hold on PRGN and roll my SBLK cash over to FREE instead ... hmmmm.Should be an interesting market day today ...I agree that it is a good long term play too...especially because of the dividend.

Nobody's concerned that they've been stuck in the 4.70's during after & pre markets?
