Performance Shipping Inc. (NASDAQ:DCIX), (the “Company”), today announced that it has agreed to acquire two entities, which have signed contracts to purchase two 2011-built Aframax tanker vessels from an unaffiliated third party seller for a total purchase price of US$60.0 million. The transaction was unanimously approved by the disinterested members of the board of directors of the Company.
The Company will acquire the two entities affiliated with the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Symeon Palios, for an aggregate purchase price of US$10.0 million, which will be paid in common shares of the Company at a per share price of US$1.05, which is equal to the undiscounted closing price of the common stock on the NASDAQ stock exchange on June 7, 2019. The US$10.0 million purchase price of the two entities is equal to the deposit previously paid to the vessels’ seller by the affiliates of the Company’s Chairman. The balance of the purchase price payable under the contracts is expected to be funded through cash on hand and bank financing. The first vessel delivery is expected in the third quarter of this year and the second in the fourth quarter.
Commenting on the transaction, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer stated:
“I am excited to be able to offer this attractive opportunity to purchase high-specification Aframax tankers to the Company at what I believe is a favourable time in the tanker industry cycle. The acquisition of these vessels represents an important step in the Company’s diversification from the container industry into other areas of the shipping sector. The sale of these contracts for common shares of the Company reflects my view that now is an attractive time to invest in the Company as it starts to rebuild its fleet.”
Following the closing of this transaction, the Company will have 36,277,660 common shares and another 2,000 Series B-2 Preferred Shares issued and outstanding. Upon completion of the above-mentioned entities’ acquisition, the Company will own 4 unencumbered containerships, 2 contracts to purchase 2 Aframax tanker vessels, for which US$10.0 million have been paid as deposit, plus approximately US$17.0 million of cash.

I day results arrived. We are not in a very favorable situation and these last 4 days have seen a lot of sales + purchases. A bit like a phase III biotechnology result, some do not "play" the results and prefer to leave the ship before the predictable plummet?
I like this situation and apart from a capital increase that will dilute us, I'm not afraid to wait for the shipper season in October. If I am doing well here, I do not think of taking back shares of a shipping company because they often (too often) call on the market to survive.
I have only one wish it is an official announcement of end with KALINI and that the company repurchases actions. (But that, I do not believe 1 second!)
We have never been able to exceed $ 1.23 in recent weeks so we must consider that today with the announcements of Trump confirming the increase in customs duties with China, we will not seek $ 1.30!
I have a thought for those who have a cost above $ 1.50 because they are, I think, not ready to get out of here.
Anyway, we will be fixed in a few hours. Good luck to all in your investments.
