Mr. Gregory Zikos, Chief Financial Officer
of Costamare Inc., commented:
“During the second quarter of the year,
the Company generated Net Income of about $69 million. As of quarter end, liquidity was $1 billion.
In the containership sector, the charter market
has been softening, although rates still remain at healthy levels. The orderbook, however, remains the principal threat to the market.
______________________________________
4 Please refer to the Containership
Fleet List table in Exhibit 99.2 for additional information on vessel employment details for our containership fleet.
5 Calculated on a TEU basis,
including one vessel owned by a vessel owning company set-up pursuant to the Framework Deed and excluding vessel Monemvasia that
we have agreed to sell in Q3 2023.
6 As of July 27, 2023. Total
contracted revenues and TEU-weighted remaining time charter duration include our ownership percentage for one vessel owned pursuant to
the Framework Deed and exclude vessel Monemvasia that we have agreed to sell in Q3 2023.
On the dry bulk side, our owned dry bulk vessels
continue to trade on a spot basis while the trading platform has grown to a fleet of 56 ships. Having invested $200 million in the dry
bulk operating platform, we have a long term commitment to the sector whose fundamentals we view positively.
Regarding Neptune Maritime Leasing, the platform
has been steadily growing on a prudent basis, having concluded leasing transactions worth a total of $120 million, which are complemented
by a heathy pipeline extending over the coming quarters.
Finally, during the quarter we proceeded with
our share repurchase program and we bought $ 50 million worth of common shares highlighting our strong belief that the share price is
heavily undervalued considering both the Company’s performance and prospects.”

(1) Accrued charter
revenue represents the difference between cash received during the period and revenue recognized on a straight-line basis. In the early
years of a charter with escalating charter rates, voyage revenue will exceed cash received during the period and during the last years
of such charter cash received will exceed revenue recognized on a straight-line basis. The reverse is true for charters with descending
rates.
(2) Voyage revenue
adjusted on a cash basis represents Voyage revenue after adjusting for non-cash “Accrued charter revenue” recorded under
charters with escalating charter rates. However, Voyage revenue adjusted on a cash basis is not a recognized measurement under U.S. GAAP.
We believe that the presentation of Voyage revenue adjusted on a cash basis is useful to investors because it presents the charter revenue
for the relevant period based on the then current daily charter rates. The increases or decreases in daily charter rates under our charter
party agreements of our fleet are described in the notes to the “Fleet List” tables in Exhibit 99.2.
(3) Adjusted Net
Income available to common stockholders and Adjusted Earnings per Share are non-GAAP measures. Refer to the reconciliation of Net Income
to Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share.
Non-GAAP Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance
with U.S. GAAP. However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures used in managing the business may provide users
of these financial measures additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Management
believes that these non-GAAP financial measures can provide additional meaningful reflection of underlying trends of the business because
they provide a comparison of historical information that excludes certain items that impact the overall comparability. Management also
uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company’s performance.
The tables below set out supplemental financial data and corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures for the three-month
and the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative
for, voyage revenue or net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures include (i) Voyage revenue adjusted
on a cash basis (reconciled above), (ii) Adjusted Net Income available to common stockholders and (iii) Adjusted Earnings per Share.

Adjusted Net Income available to common stockholders
and Adjusted Earnings per Share represent Net Income after earnings allocated to preferred stock and Non-Controlling Interest, but before
non-cash “Accrued charter revenue” recorded under charters with escalating or descending charter rates, amortization of time-charter
assumed, realized (gain)/loss on Euro/USD forward contracts, gain on sale of vessels, net, loss on sale of vessel by a jointly owned company
with York Capital included in equity loss on investments, non-recurring, non-cash write-off of loan deferred financing costs, general
and administrative expenses - non-cash component, (gain)/loss on derivative instruments, excluding realized (gain)/loss on derivative
instruments and non-recurring payments for loan cancellation fees. “Accrued charter revenue” is attributed to the timing difference
between the revenue recognition and the cash collection. However, Adjusted Net Income available to common stockholders and Adjusted Earnings
per Share are not recognized measurements under U.S. GAAP. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Net Income available to common
stockholders and Adjusted Earnings per Share are useful to investors because they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors
and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. We also believe that Adjusted Net Income available to common
stockholders and Adjusted Earnings per Share are useful in evaluating our ability to service additional debt and make capital expenditures.
In addition, we believe that Adjusted Net Income available to common stockholders and Adjusted Earnings per Share are useful in evaluating
our operating performance and liquidity position compared to that of other companies in our industry because the calculation of Adjusted
Net Income available to common stockholders and Adjusted Earnings per Share generally eliminates the effects of the accounting effects
of capital expenditures and acquisitions, certain hedging instruments and other accounting treatments, items which may vary for different
companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance and liquidity. In evaluating Adjusted Net Income available to common
stockholders and Adjusted Earnings per Share, 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 Net Income available to common stockholders and Adjusted
Earnings per Share should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
(1) Items to consider for comparability include
gains and charges. Gains positively impacting Net Income available to common stockholders are reflected as deductions to Adjusted Net
Income available to common stockholders. Charges negatively impacting Net Income available to common stockholders are reflected as increases
to Adjusted Net Income available to common stockholders.

on derivative instruments, excluding realized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments” represents Net Income before “(gain)/loss
on derivative instruments, excluding realized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments”. “Net Income / (Loss) adjusted for (gain)/loss
on derivative instruments, excluding realized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments” is not a recognized measurement under U.S.
GAAP. We believe that the presentation of “Net Income / (Loss) adjusted for (gain)/loss on derivative instruments, excluding realized
(gain)/loss on derivative instruments” is useful because it provides investors with a measure of the operating results unaffected
by volatility in the value of our currently held derivative instruments.

Results of Operations
Three-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared
to the three-month period ended June 30, 2022
During the three-month periods ended June 30,
2023 and 2022, we had an average of 110.1 and 117.7 vessels, respectively, in our owned fleet. In addition, during the three-month period
ended June 30, 2023, through our dry-bulk operating platform Costamare Bulkers Inc. (“CBI”) we chartered-in an average of
42.5 third-party dry-bulk vessels. As of July 27, 2023, CBI has chartered-in 56 dry-bulk vessels on period charters.
During the three-month period ended June 30, 2023,
we (i) sold our 49% equity interest in the company owning the 2018-built, 3,800 TEU capacity containership, Polar Argentina to
York Capital and (ii) acquired the 51% equity interest of York Capital of the 2018-built, 3,800 TEU capacity containership, Polar Brasil
and as a result we obtained 100% of the equity interest in the vessel. Furthermore, during the three-month period ended June 30, 2023,
we sold the dry-bulk vessels Taibo and Comity with an aggregate DWT of 72,414.
In the three-month period ended June 30, 2022,
we sold the dry bulk vessel Thunder with DWT of 57,334.
In March 2023, we entered into an agreement with
Neptune Maritime Leasing Limited (“NML”) and its shareholders pursuant to which we agreed to invest in NML’s ship sale
and leaseback business up to $200 million in exchange for up to 40% of its ordinary shares and up to 79.05% of its preferred shares.
In addition, we received a special ordinary share in NML which carries 75% of the voting rights of the ordinary shares providing
control over NML. NML was established in 2021 to acquire and bareboat charter out vessels through wholly-owned subsidiaries. Up to June
30, 2023, we have invested in NML the amount of $37.8 million. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2023,
NML is included in our consolidated financial statements.
In the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023
and 2022, our fleet ownership days totaled 10,020 and 10,715 days, respectively. Ownership days are one of the primary drivers of voyage
revenue and vessels’ operating expenses and represent the aggregate number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet
is owned. Furthermore, during the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, the days of the third-party vessels chartered-in through CBI
were 3,866.

(1) Voyage revenue adjusted on a cash
basis is not a recognized measurement under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Refer to “Consolidated
Financial Results and Vessels’ Operational Data” above for the reconciliation of Voyage revenue adjusted on a cash basis.
Voyage Revenue
Voyage revenue increased by
25.8%, or $75.0 million, to $365.9 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, from $290.9 million during the three-month
period ended June 30, 2022. The increase is mainly attributable to (i) revenue earned by CBI, which was fully operational in the second
quarter of 2023 and (ii) increased charter rates in certain of our container vessels; partly off-set by decreased charter rates in certain
of our dry bulk vessels and by revenue not earned by five container vessels and four dry bulk vessels sold during 2022 and the first half
of 2023.
Voyage revenue adjusted on
a cash basis (which eliminates non-cash “Accrued charter revenue”) increased by 26.0%, or $76.1 million, to $368.7 million
during the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, from $292.6 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2022. Accrued charter
revenue for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was a positive amount of $2.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively.
Income from investments in leaseback vessels
Income from investments in
leaseback vessels was $1.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023. Income from investments in leaseback vessels was earned
from NML’s operations during the second quarter of 2023. NML acquires, owns and bareboat charters out vessels through its wholly-owned
subsidiaries. NML is included in our consolidated financial statements.
Voyage Expenses
Voyage expenses were $69.4
million and $11.3 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Voyage expenses increased, period over
period, mainly due to the operations of CBI which is fully operational since the first quarter of 2023. Voyage expenses mainly include
(i) fuel consumption mainly related to dry bulk vessels, (ii) third-party commissions, (iii) port expenses and (iv) canal tolls.
Charter-in Hire Expenses
Charter-in hire expenses were
$74.6 million and nil for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Charter-in hire expenses are expenses relating
to chartering-in of third-party dry bulk vessels under charter agreements through CBI.
Voyage Expenses – related parties
Voyage expenses – related
parties were $3.4 million and $4.0 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Voyage expenses –
related parties represent (i) fees of 1.25%, in the aggregate, on voyage revenues earned by our owned fleet charged by a related manager
and a related service provider and (ii) charter brokerage fees (in respect of our container vessels) payable to two related charter brokerage
companies for an amount of approximately $0.3 million and $0.4 million, in the aggregate, for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023
and 2022, respectively.
Vessels’ Operating Expenses
Vessels’ operating expenses,
which also include the realized gain/(loss) under derivative contracts entered into in relation to foreign currency exposure, were $62.9
million and $67.6 million during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Daily vessels’ operating expenses
were $6,281 and $6,309 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Daily operating expenses are calculated
as vessels’ operating expenses for the period over the ownership days of the period.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative
expenses were $4.1 million and $3.5 million during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and include amounts
of $0.67 million and $0.67 million, respectively, that were paid to a related service provider.
Management and Agency Fees – related
parties
Management fees charged by
our related managers were $11.0 million and $11.0 million during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Furthermore,
during the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, agency fees of $3.9 million, in aggregate, were charged by three related agency companies
in connection with the operations of CBI.
General and Administrative Expenses - non-cash
component
General and administrative
expenses - non-cash component for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 amounted to $1.4 million, representing the value of the shares
issued to a related service provider on June 30, 2023. General and administrative expenses - non-cash component for the three-month period
ended June 30, 2022 amounted to $1.8 million, representing the value of the shares issued to a related service provider on June 30, 2022.
Amortization of Dry-Docking and Special Survey
Costs
Amortization of deferred dry-docking
and special survey costs was $4.7 million and $2.9 million during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
During the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, one vessel underwent and completed her dry-docking and special survey and two vessels
were in the process of completing their dry-docking and special survey. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, seven vessels
underwent and completed their dry-docking and special survey and three vessels were in the process of completing their dry-docking and
special survey.
Depreciation
Depreciation expense for the
three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $41.3 million and $41.3 million, respectively.
Gain on Sale of Vessels, net
During the three-month period
ended June 30, 2023, we recorded an aggregate net gain of $31.3 million from (i) the sale of the dry-bulk vessel Taibo, which
was classified as vessel held for sale as of March 31, 2023, (ii) the sale of the dry-bulk vessel Comity and (iii) the result
of the accounting classification of the container vessels Vela and Vulpecula as “Net investment in sales type lease (Vessels)”. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, we recorded a gain of $3.5 million from the sale of the dry-bulk
vessel Thunder, which was classified as vessel held for sale during the first quarter of 2022.
Interest Income
Interest income amounted to
$9.7 million and $0.1 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Interest and Finance Costs
Interest and finance costs
were $36.5 million and $30.1 million during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase is mainly
attributable to the increased interest expense due to increased financing costs during the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared
to the three-month period ended June 30, 2022.
Income from Equity Method Investments
Income from equity method
investments for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 was $0.2 million (Income of $0.5 million for the three-month period ended June
30, 2022) representing our share of the gain in jointly owned companies set up pursuant to the Framework Deed. During the three-month
period ended June 30, 2023, we (i) sold our 49% equity interest in the company owning the 2018-built, 3,800 TEU capacity containership,
Polar Argentina to York Capital and (ii) acquired the 51% equity interest of York Capital of the 2018-built, 3,800 TEU capacity
containership Polar Brasil and as a result we obtained 100% of the equity interest in the vessel. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022
three and six companies, respectively, were jointly owned pursuant to the Framework Deed out of which two and four companies, respectively,
owned container vessels.
Loss on Derivative Instruments, net
As of June 30, 2023, we hold
derivative financial instruments that qualify for hedge accounting and derivative financial instruments that do not qualify for hedge
accounting. The change in the fair value of each derivative instrument that qualifies for hedge accounting is recorded in “Other
Comprehensive Income” (“OCI”). The change in the fair value of each derivative instrument that does not qualify for
hedge accounting is recorded in the consolidated statements of income.
As of June 30, 2023, the fair
value of these instruments, in aggregate, amounted to a net asset of $40.0 million. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2023,
a net gain of $13.1 million has been included in OCI and a net loss of $29.8 million has been included in Loss on Derivative Instruments,
net.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash flows provided by
operating activities for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, decreased by $94.8 million to $66.3 million, from $161.1 million
for the three-month period ended June 30, 2022. The decrease is mainly attributable to the unfavorable change in working capital position,
excluding the current portion of long-term debt and the accrued charter revenue (representing the difference between cash received in
that period and revenue recognized on a straight-line basis) of $58.4 million, by the increased payments for interest (including swap
net receipts) of $9.4 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2022;
partly offset by the increased cash from operations of $77.5 million, mainly due to revenue earned by CBI, which was fully operational
in the second quarter of 2023 and by the decreased dry-docking and special survey costs of $9.8 million during the three-month period
ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2022.

activities was $77.2 million in the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, which mainly consisted of (i) payments for the purchase of
short-term investments in US Treasury Bills, (ii) payments for upgrades for certain of our container and dry bulk vessels, (iii) an advance
payment for the acquisition of one secondhand dry bulk vessel and (iv) payments for net investments into which NML entered; partly offset
by the proceeds we received from the sale of the dry bulk vessels Taibo and Comity and the maturity of part of our short-term
investments in US Treasury Bills.
Net cash provided by investing
activities was $24.9 million in the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, which mainly consisted of proceeds we received from (i) the

Net cash used in financing
activities was $158.4 million in the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, which mainly consisted of (a) $90.8 million net payments

(1) Voyage revenue adjusted on a cash
basis is not a recognized measurement under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Refer to “Consolidated
Financial Results and Vessels’ Operational Data” above for the reconciliation of Voyage revenue adjusted on a cash basis.
Voyage Revenue
Voyage revenue increased by
10.0%, or $55.8 million, to $614.7 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, from $558.9 million during the six-month period
ended June 30, 2022. The increase is mainly attributable to (i) revenue earned by CBI, which was fully operational in the first half of
2023 and (ii) increased charter rates in certain of our container vessels; partly off-set by decreased charter rates in certain of our
dry bulk vessels, by revenue not earned by six container vessels and four dry bulk vessels sold during 2022 and the first half of 2023
and increased off-hire days in the first half of 2023 compared to the first half of 2022.
Voyage revenue adjusted on
a cash basis (which eliminates non-cash “Accrued charter revenue”) increased by 9.1%, or $51.1 million, to $615.2 million
during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, from $564.1 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2022. Accrued charter
revenue for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was a positive amount of $0.5 million and $5.1 million, respectively.
Income from investments in leaseback vessels
Income from investments in
leaseback vessels was $1.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. Income from investments in leaseback vessels was earned
from NML’s operations during the second quarter of 2023. NML acquires, owns and bareboat charters out vessels through its wholly-owned
subsidiaries. NML is included in our consolidated financial statements.
Voyage Expenses
Voyage expenses were $101.0
million and $19.8 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Voyage expenses increased, period over
period, mainly due to the operations of CBI which was fully operational during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 and to the increased
repositioning expenses of certain of our owned dry-bulk vessels during the first quarter of 2023. Voyage expenses mainly include (i) fuel
consumption mainly related to dry bulk vessels, (ii) third-party commissions, (iii) port expenses and (iv) canal tolls.
Charter-in Hire Expenses
Charter-in hire expenses were
$87.0 million and nil for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Charter-in hire expenses are expenses relating
to chartering-in of third-party dry bulk vessels under charter agreements through CBI.
Voyage Expenses – related parties
Voyage expenses – related
parties were $6.6 million and $7.7 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Voyage expenses –
related parties represent (i) fees of 1.25%, in the aggregate, on voyage revenues earned by our owned fleet charged by a related manager
and a related service provider and (ii) charter brokerage fees (in respect of our container vessels) payable to two related charter brokerage
companies for an amount of approximately $0.7 million and $0.8 million, in the aggregate, for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023
and 2022, respectively.
Vessels’ Operating Expenses
Vessels’ operating expenses,
which also include the realized gain/(loss) under derivative contracts entered into in relation to foreign currency exposure, were $130.6
million and $133.4 million during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Daily vessels’ operating expenses
were $6,478 and $6,267 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Daily operating expenses are calculated as
vessels’ operating expenses for the period over the ownership days of the period.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative
expenses were $8.5 million and $6.7 million during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and include amounts
of $1.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively, that were paid to a related service provider.
Management and Agency Fees – related
parties
Management fees charged by
our related managers were $21.7 million and $21.9 million during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Furthermore,
during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, agency fees of $8.4 million, in aggregate, were charged by three related agency companies
in connection with the operations of CBI.
General and Administrative Expenses –
non-cash component
General and administrative
expenses – non-cash component for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 amounted to $2.9 million, representing the value of the
shares issued to a related service provider on March 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023. General and administrative expenses – non-cash
component for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022 amounted to $4.4 million, representing the value of the shares issued to a related
service provider on March 30, 2022 and June 30, 2022.
Amortization of Dry-Docking and Special Survey
Costs
Amortization of deferred dry-docking
and special survey costs was $9.4 million and $5.6 million during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. During
the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, ten vessels underwent and completed their dry-docking and special survey and two vessels were
in the process of completing their dry-docking and special survey. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, nine vessels underwent
and completed their dry-docking and special survey and three vessels were in the process of completing their dry-docking and special survey.
Depreciation
Depreciation expense for the
six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $82.4 million and $82.5 million, respectively.
Gain on Sale of Vessels, net
During the six-month period
ended June 30, 2023, we recorded an aggregate net gain of $118.0 million from (i) the sale of the container vessels Maersk Kalamata
and Sealand Washington, which were classified as vessels held for sale as of December 31, 2022 (initially classified as vessels
held for sale as of March 31, 2022), (ii) the sale of the dry-bulk vessel Taibo, which was classified as vessel held for sale as
of March 31, 2023, (iii) the sale of the dry-bulk vessels Miner and Comity and (iv) the result of the accounting classification
of the container vessels Vela and Vulpecula as “Net investment in sales type lease (Vessels)”. During the six-month period ended June 30,
2022, we recorded an aggregate gain of $21.3 million from the sale of the container vessel Messini (vessel classified as held for
sale during the fourth quarter of 2021) and the dry-bulk vessel Thunder (vessel classified as held for sale during the first quarter
of 2022).
Interest Income
Interest income amounted to
$16.4 million and $0.1 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Interest and Finance Costs
Interest and finance costs
were $73.3 million and $55.2 million during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase is mainly attributable
to the increased interest expense due to increased financing costs during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six-month
period ended June 30, 2022.
Income / (Loss) from Equity Method Investments
Loss from equity method investments
for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 was $1.1 million (Income of $0.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022) representing
our share of the loss in jointly owned companies set up pursuant to the Framework Deed. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2023,
we (i) sold our 49% equity interest in the company owning the 2018-built, 3,800 TEU capacity containership, Polar Argentina to
York Capital and (ii) acquired the 51% equity interest of York Capital of the 2018-built, 3,800 TEU capacity containership Polar Brasil
and as a result we obtained 100% of the equity interest in the vessel. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022 three and six companies, respectively,
were jointly owned pursuant to the Framework Deed out of which two and four companies, respectively, owned container vessels.
Loss on Derivative Instruments, net
As of June 30, 2023, we hold
derivative financial instruments that qualify for hedge accounting and derivative financial instruments that do not qualify for hedge
accounting. The change in the fair value of each derivative instrument that qualifies for hedge accounting is recorded in “Other
Comprehensive Income” (“OCI”). The change in the fair value of each derivative instrument that does not qualify for
hedge accounting is recorded in the consolidated statements of income.
As of June 30, 2023, the fair
value of these instruments, in aggregate, amounted to a net asset of $40.0 million. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, a
net loss of $7.6 million has been included in OCI and a loss of $7.0 million has been included in Loss on Derivative Instruments, net.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash flows provided by
operating activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, decreased by $211.8 million to $103.6 million, from $315.4 million
for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022. The decrease is mainly attributable to the unfavorable change in working capital position,
excluding the current portion of long-term debt and the accrued charter revenue (representing the difference between cash received in
that period and revenue recognized on a straight-line basis) of $105.0 million, by the increased payments for interest (including swap
net receipts) of $22.0 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2022 and
by the increased dry-docking and special survey costs of $0.8 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 compared to the
six-month period ended June 30, 2022; partly offset by the increased cash from operations of $52.6 million, mainly due to revenue earned
by CBI, which was fully operational in the first half of 2023.

(1) Accrued charter
revenue represents the difference between cash received during the period and revenue recognized on a straight-line basis. In the early
years of a charter with escalating charter rates, voyage revenue will exceed cash received during the period and during the last years
of such charter cash received will exceed revenue recognized on a straight-line basis. The reverse is true for charters with descending
rates.
(2) Voyage revenue
adjusted on a cash basis represents Voyage revenue after adjusting for non-cash “Accrued charter revenue” recorded under
charters with escalating charter rates. However, Voyage revenue adjusted on a cash basis is not a recognized measurement under U.S. GAAP.
We believe that the presentation of Voyage revenue adjusted on a cash basis is useful to investors because it presents the charter revenue
for the relevant period based on the then current daily charter rates. The increases or decreases in daily charter rates under our charter
party agreements of our fleet are described in the notes to the “Fleet List” tables above.
(3) Adjusted Net
Income available to common stockholders and Adjusted Earnings per Share are non-GAAP measures. Refer to the reconciliation of Net Income
to Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share.
Non-GAAP Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance
with U.S. GAAP. However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures used in managing the business may provide users
of these financial measures additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Management
believes that these non-GAAP financial measures can provide additional meaningful reflection of underlying trends of the business because
they provide a comparison of historical information that excludes certain items that impact the overall comparability. Management also
uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company’s performance.
The tables below set out supplemental financial data and corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures for the three-month
and the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative
for, voyage revenue or net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures include (i) Voyage revenue adjusted
on a cash basis (reconciled above), (ii) Adjusted Net Income available to common stockholders and (iii) Adjusted Earnings per Share.

Adjusted Net Income available to common stockholders
and Adjusted Earnings per Share represent Net Income after earnings allocated to preferred stock and Non-Controlling Interest, but before
non-cash “Accrued charter revenue” recorded under charters with escalating or descending charter rates, amortization of time-charter
assumed, realized (gain)/loss on Euro/USD forward contracts, gain on sale of vessels, net, loss on sale of vessel by a jointly owned company
with York Capital included in equity loss on investments, non-recurring, non-cash write-off of loan deferred financing costs, general
and administrative expenses - non-cash component, (gain)/loss on derivative instruments, excluding realized (gain)/loss on derivative
instruments and non-recurring payments for loan cancellation fees. “Accrued charter revenue” is attributed to the timing difference
between the revenue recognition and the cash collection. However, Adjusted Net Income available to common stockholders and Adjusted Earnings
per Share are not recognized measurements under U.S. GAAP. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Net Income available to common
stockholders and Adjusted Earnings per Share are useful to investors because they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors
and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. We also believe that Adjusted Net Income available to common
stockholders and Adjusted Earnings per Share are useful in evaluating our ability to service additional debt and make capital expenditures.
In addition, we believe that Adjusted Net Income available to common stockholders and Adjusted Earnings per Share are useful in evaluating
our operating performance and liquidity position compared to that of other companies in our industry because the calculation of Adjusted
Net Income available to common stockholders and Adjusted Earnings per Share generally eliminates the effects of the accounting effects
of capital expenditures and acquisitions, certain hedging instruments and other accounting treatments, items which may vary for different
companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance and liquidity. In evaluating Adjusted Net Income available to common
stockholders and Adjusted Earnings per Share, 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 Net Income available to common stockholders and Adjusted
Earnings per Share should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
(1) Items to consider for comparability include
gains and charges. Gains positively impacting Net Income available to common stockholders are reflected as deductions to Adjusted Net
Income available to common stockholders. Charges negatively impacting Net Income available to common stockholders are reflected as increases
to Adjusted Net Income available to common stockholders.

“Net Income / (Loss) adjusted for (gain)/loss
on derivative instruments, excluding realized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments” represents Net Income before “(gain)/loss
on derivative instruments, excluding realized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments”. “Net Income / (Loss) adjusted for (gain)/loss
on derivative instruments, excluding realized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments” is not a recognized measurement under U.S.
GAAP. We believe that the presentation of “Net Income / (Loss) adjusted for (gain)/loss on derivative instruments, excluding realized
(gain)/loss on derivative instruments” is useful because it provides investors with a measure of the operating results unaffected
by volatility in the value of our currently held derivative instruments.
