Himalaya Shipping Ltd. (HSHP) Announces its Preliminary Results for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2025

Hamilton, Bermuda, August 8, 2025

Himalaya Shipping Ltd. ("Himalaya," "Himalaya Shipping" or the "Company") announces preliminary unaudited results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

Highlights for the Second Quarter of 2025

  • Net income of \$1.1 million and EBITDA1 of \$20.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.
  • Achieved average daily time charter equivalent ("TCE") earnings of approximately \$28,400 per day, gross2 .
  • Commencement of Lars-Christian Svensen as contracted CEO and appointment of Vidar Hasund as contracted CFO on April 1, 2025.
  • In April 2025, the Board approved a grant of 200,000 share options to key human resources.
  • On June 3, 2025, the Company successfully completed the uplisting from Euronext Expand to Euronext Oslo Børs.
  • Declared cash distributions of \$0.025, \$0.03 and \$0.05 per common share for April, May and June 2025, respectively.

Subsequent events

  • Converted the index-linked time charters for four vessels to fixed rate time charters at an average rate of approximately US\$35,300 per day, gross, from August 1, 2025 to September 30, 2025.
  • Achieved average daily TCE earnings for July 2025 of appproximately \$32,700 per day, gross.
  • Declared a cash distribution \$0.04 per common share for July 2025.

Contracted CEO, Lars-Christian Svensen commented:

"During the second quarter of 2025, the Baltic Capesize Index (BCI) averaged \$18,681 per day, while the Himalaya fleet achieved average TCE earnings of around \$28,400 per day over the same period. This performance underscores the strong capabilities and potential of our vessels, as well as the solid commercial execution to date. Of our 12 vessels, 10 were active in the spot market, earning an average premium of 42.2% over the Baltic 5TC (BCI) index (excluding scrubber benefits).

In the second quarter of 2025, the Baltic 5TC Capesize index averaged \$18,681 per day, compared to \$22,665 during the same period in the previous year. Despite a slow start to the year, particularly due to two major typhoons that disrupted iron ore exports from Australia in February 2025, the market has since rebounded. This recovery has been driven by a 27% year-on-year increase in global bauxite shipments in the first half of 2025, totaling 126 million MT, along with a 4% increase in iron ore exports from Brazil, totaling 195 million MT. Broken down by the three big commodities, we experienced a ton mile development of 1.5% decrease in iron ore, a 14% decrease in coal, offset by a 27% increase in bauxite. With a low order book and the emergence of more tonnemile intensive trades, such as the Simandou project in Guinea expected to commence in November 2025, we anticipate a well-balanced market and a strong foundation for a potentially prolonged upward cycle.

The market continues to face US tariffs and trade war uncertainties, however, these have not directly impacted the Capesize and Newcastlemax segments, with less than 2% of exports of the total large size drybulk trades affected and no material impact on imports.

1 The Company uses certain financial information calculated on a basis other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (US GAAP) including average daily TCE earnings, gross and EBITDA. EBITDA as presented above represents our net income (loss) plus depreciation of vessels and equipment; total financial expenses, net; and income tax expense. Please refer to the appendix of this report for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with US GAAP.

2 Average daily TCE earnings, gross, as presented above, represents time charter revenues and voyage charter revenues adding back address commissions and divided by fleet operational days. Please refer to the appendix of this release for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP.

The Company has maintained its strategy of making monthly distributions to its shareholders. Given the limited need for capital expenditures, we expect a significant portion of free cash flow to be paid to shareholders. On August 7, 2025, we declared a cash distribution of \$0.04 per share. If our positive market outlook materializes, there may be a potential to increase distributions."

Total operating revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025 were \$29.9 million, a \$1.3 million decrease compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is mainly a result of the lower average Baltic 5TC Capesize Index of \$18,681/day in the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to \$22,665/day in the same period in 2024. Average TCE earnings, gross, decreased from \$34,600/day in the three months ended June 30, 2024 to \$28,400/day in the three months ended June 30, 2025. This decrease was partially offset by the increase in the number of operating days in the three months ended June 30, 2025 to 1,092 days from 935 days in the three months ended June 30, 2024, as a result of the delivery and commencement of operations of the final three of the 12 vessels in our fleet (which we refer to as " our remaining three vessels") partway through the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Vessel operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was \$7.1 million, a \$1.5 million increase compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is mainly a result of the delivery and commencement of operations of the remaining three vessels, Mount Denali, Mount Aconcagua and Mount Emai, on April 19, June 6 and June 13, 2024, respectively. The Company achieved average vessel operating cost per day3 of \$6,500 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to \$6,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Depreciation for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was \$7.3 million, a \$0.8 million increase compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is mainly a result of the delivery and commencement of operations of the remaining three vessels partway through the three months ended June 30, 2024.

3 Average vessel operating cost per day is calculated by dividing vessel operating expenses in the period by the number of calendar days in the period.

Total financial expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was \$12.5 million, a \$1.9 million increase compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. This is mainly due to the increase in interest expense as a result of the increase in outstanding debt following the delivery of the remaining three vessels partway through the three months ended June 30, 2024, and cessation of interest capitalization on assets ready for their intended use.

Six months ended June 30, 2025:

Net income (5.3) 9.4 (14.7) (156) %
EBITDA 34.8 40.9 (6.1) (15) %

Total operating revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were \$51.9 million, a \$2.9 million decrease compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is mainly a result of the lower Average Baltic 5TC Capesize Index of \$15,794/day in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to \$23,482/day in the same period in 2024. Average TCE earnings, gross decreased from \$32,800/day in the six months ended June 30, 2024 to \$24,800/day in the six months ended June 30, 2025. This decrease was partially offset by the increase in the number of operating days in the six months ended June 30, 2025 to 2,172 days from 1,733 days in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Vessel operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was \$14.0 million, a \$3.5 million increase compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is mainly a result of the delivery and commencement of operations of the remaining six vessels in the six months ended June 30, 2024. The Company achieved average vessel operating cost per day of \$6,400 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to \$6,100 in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Depreciation for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was \$14.6 million, a \$2.7 million increase compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is mainly a result of the delivery and commencement of operations of the remaining six vessels in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Total financial expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was \$25.5 million, a \$5.9 million increase compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. This is mainly due to the increase in interest expense as a result of the increase in average balance of outstanding debt following the delivery of vessels in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Consolidated Balance Sheets

Vessels and equipment as of June 30, 2025 was \$838.4 million, a \$14.6 million decrease compared to \$853.0 million as of December 31, 2024. The decrease is due to vessel depreciation in the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Total debt as of June 30, 2025 was \$701.2 million, a \$12.7 million decrease compared to \$713.9 million as of December 31, 2024. The decrease is primarily due to the repayments of principal on the sale and leaseback facilities of \$14.0 million during the period, partly offset by amortization of deferred finance costs of \$1.3 million.

Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows

Three months ended June 30, 2025

Net cash provided by operating activities was \$8.3 million, compared to \$17.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily due to the decline in time charter revenues and associated cash receipts, an increase in vessel operating expenses and the timing of working capital movements. Included within net cash provided by operating activities in the three months ended June 30, 2025 are interest payments (net of capitalized interest) of \$13.7 million compared to \$9.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Net cash used in investing activities was nil, compared to \$159.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, which consisted of installment payments and costs related to the delivery of Mount Denali, Mount Aconcagua and Mount Emai.

Net cash used in financing activities was \$10.6 million, compared to \$138.0 million net cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended June 30, 2024. Net cash used in financing activities in the three months ended June 30, 2025 primarily consisted of repayments on the sale and leaseback financings of \$7.4 million and payments of cash distributions of \$3.2 million. Net cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended June 30, 2024 primarily consisted of \$147.7 million in draw downs under the sale and leaseback financing arrangements, partly offset by repayments on the sale and leaseback financings of \$4.9 million, payment of deferred financing costs of \$0.4 million and cash distributions of \$4.4 million.

Six months ended June 30, 2025

Net cash provided by operating activities was \$8.6 million, compared to \$28.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily due to the decline in time charter revenues and associated cash receipts, an increase in vessel operating expenses and the timing of working capital movements. Included within net cash provided by operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2025 are interest payments (net of capitalized interest) of \$26.2 million, compared to \$15.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Net cash used in investing activities was nil, compared to \$313.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, which consisted of installment payments and costs related to the delivery of Mount Bandeira, Mount Hua, Mount Elbrus, Mount Denali, Mount Aconcagua and Mount Emai.

Net cash used in financing activities was \$3.3 million, compared to \$280.8 million net cash provided by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2024. Net cash used in financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2025 consisted of repayments on the sale and leaseback financings of \$14.0 million and the revolving credit facility with Drew Holdings Ltd. (the "Drew facility") of \$6.0 million, and payments of cash distributions of \$4.1 million, offset by net proceeds of \$14.8 million from the private placement conducted in March 2025 and draw downs from the Drew facility of \$6.0 million. Net cash provided by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2024 primarily consisted of \$295.5 million drawn down from the sale and leaseback financing arrangements, slightly offset by repayments on the sale and leaseback financings of \$8.3 million, payment of deferred financing costs of \$1.6 million and payments of cash distributions of \$4.8 million.

Liquidity and financing

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of \$24.7 million as of June 30, 2025 and \$10.0 million available to drawdown under the Drew Facility.

As of June 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents included \$12.3 million which the Company is required to maintain as minimum cash balance for all eight vessels under the sale and leaseback arrangements with CCB Financial Leasing Company Limited ("CCBFL") and Jiangsu Financial Leasing Co. Ltd.

All of our vessels have been financed by Chinese leasing houses at a fixed bareboat rate with a maturity of seven years from the delivery of each vessel. This gives the Company a fixed financing cost for our vessels until the maturity of their respective leases.

Repayments on the financing for the installation of the scrubbers is expected to conclude by the first quarter of 2026. After repayment of the scrubber financing, the Company's cash break-even will be reduced by approximately \$800 per day. The Company's cash breakeven is currently \$24,900 per day.

Commercial update

In the second quarter of 2025, the Company achieved average TCE earnings, gross of approximately \$28,400 per day, including average daily scrubber benefits of approximately \$1,200 per day. This is equivalent to a 52% premium to the Capesize index.

In addition, in the second quarter of 2025, the Company's vessels trading on index-linked time charters earned approximately \$27,700 per day, gross, including average daily scrubber benefits. Following the conversion of the index-linked time charters to fixed rate time charters for two vessels in the second quarter of 2025, the Company's vessels trading on fixed rate time charters earned approximately \$32,200 per day, gross, including average daily scrubber benefits.

The Baltic 5TC Capesize Index averaged \$18,681 per day in the second quarter of 2025.

Market commentary

The Baltic 5TC Capesize index as of August 7, 2025 stands at \$26,576 having averaged \$17,079 year to date, a decrease from \$23,666 during the same period in 2024.

Demand in the first half of 2025 was driven by strong shipmen ts of iron ore from Brazil and global bauxite exports, with volumes increasing by 7 million MT and 27 million MT year-on-year, respectively.

Overall, Capesize shipments remain flat year-on-year in the second quarter 2025, compared to the same period last year.

Imports to China continue to drive the Capesize market. Chinese imports on Capesize tonnage were 355 million MT in the second quarter of 2025, up by 3.5% compared to the 343 million MT during the same period in 2024.

Growth in vessel supply for large bulk carriers is still expected to be moderate in the coming years with expected Capesize deliveries of 4 million dwt (or 1 % of existing fleet) for the remainder of 2025, 11 million dwt (or 2.7 % of existing fleet) in 2026, 9.7 million dwt (or 2.4% of existing fleet) for 2027 and 6.4 million dwt (or 1.6% of existing fleet) after 2027.

Following a few recent domestic Chinese orders for Newcastlemax vessels, available newbuilding berths with delivery before the second half of 2028 are expected to be limited. Current newbuilding costs for a dual-fuel Newcastlemax in China are believed to be approximately \$90 million.

We see potential upside to the future development in the Capesize market from current levels in the event of continued strong and increased exports of iron ore and bauxite from Brazil and West Africa. The Simandou project in Guinea is reported to be advancing at a good pace, with the first shipment reported to be expected in 2025 with a reported 30-month ramp-up to 60 million tonnes per annum for phase 1, and a reported additional 60 million tonnes per annum for phase 2. In addition, Vale has reported that it is targeting a 50 million tonnes per annum increase in capacity by 2026 from Vargem Grande, Capanema and S11D mine.

Key downside risks to the Capesize market include the risk of a continued economic slowdown in China, as well as the risk of heightened geopolitical tensions. Continued weakness in the Chinese property sector also represents an ongoing risk to Chinese steel demand.

Capesize fleet development

The global Capesize fleet stands at 404 million dwt as of July 30, 2025, up from 399 million dwt in August 2024. The current orderbook for Capesize dry bulk vessels currently stands at 8.9% of the existing fleet, up from 8% in 2024.

5.2 million dwt has been ordered so far in 2025, compared to 12.6 million dwt during the same period in 2024. 0.65 million dwt has been scrapped so far in 2025, compared to 0.53 million dwt during the same period in 2024.

Operational update

In the second quarter of 2025, our fleet had 1,092 operational days, and a utilization rate of 99.9% of our delivered vessels.

Outlook

Approximately 150 large bulk carriers are due for delivery prior to 2028 and we anticipate a significant number of vessels to be due for dry docking in the coming years. For comparison, more than 675 Capesize vessels which were delivered between 2010 and 2012 are due for their third special survey in the coming years, which potentially also implies steel renewals. According to Clarksons, more than 52% of the fleet will be older than 15 years by 2027.

Demand volume growth is expected to be moderate, but the sourcing of raw materials in the Atlantic basin to demand in the Far East is expected to continue to support longer sailing distances. The potential 160 mt per year incremental iron ore supply from Guinea and Brazil could, if all ends up in China and displaces domestically produced iron ore, mean demand for approximately 250 incremental Capesize equivalent ships.

In our view, Himalaya Shipping continues to have one of the most modern Newcastlemax fleets in the world. The dual fuel LNG capability of our vessels means that when a vessel is running on LNG, the CO2 emissions are more than halved compared to a standard Capesize index ship. Our modern fleet should be well positioned to take advantage of the regulatory challenges facing a majority of the Capesize fleet.

We believe that Himalaya's structure, with index linked charters currently earning on average a 42.3% premium to the Baltic 5TC (BCI) index plus scrubber benefits, low G&A costs and financing with seven-year fixed bareboat rates (from the delivery of each vessel), positions us well to continue delivering solid returns to our shareholders in the coming years in what we believe will be an improving spot market.
