Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This presentation contains certain selected financial measures on a basis other than U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), including average daily TCE earnings, gross, Adjusted EBITDA, and illustrative free cash flow. Average daily TCE earnings, gross, as presented here, represents time charter revenues and voyage charter revenues adding back address commissions and divided by operational days. Adjusted EBITDA represents our net income/(loss) plus depreciation of vessels and equipment; total financial expenses, net; and income tax expense. Adjusted EBITDA is presented here because the Company believes this measure increases comparability of total business performance from period to period and against the performance of other companies. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and average daily TCE earnings, gross, to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP, please see the section of our preliminary results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, Appendix entitled "Unaudited Non-GAAP Measures And Reconciliations". For a discussion of illustrative free cash flow see slide 17 including the footnotes thereto. We are unable to prepare a reconciliation of illustrative free cash flow without unreasonable efforts.
