New Business Developments
·
Took delivery of the 1998-built 3,842 TEU vessels Koroni and Kyparissia which commenced the charter with Evergreen replacing the vessels Genius I and Gifted. The total acquisition cost for the two vessels was approximately $24.9 million and was partly funded with debt drawn from a credit facility.
·
Delivered to buyers the 1984-built, 2,922 TEU container vessels Gifted and Genius I which were sold for demolition. The total sale price for the vessels was approximately $12.3 million.
·
Entered into an agreement to time charter the 1991-built, 1,068 TEU containership Horizon to APL, for a period of minimum three months and maximum six months at a daily rate of $6,000. The vessel was delivered to APL at the end of May 2012.
·
The Company has agreed to purchase from an insolvency administrator over the assets of a German KG, the 1,078 TEU capacity, 2001-built container vessel Stadt Luebeck. The purchase price will be $11.3 million and the vessel is expected to be delivered to the Company by the end of July 2012. The vessel is currently chartered to CMA CGM for a period until the end of August 2012, at a daily rate of $5,800. The acquisition will be funded entirely out of bank financing provided by an existing lender to the Company under an amended credit facility as part of a broader agreement between the Company and the vessel's current lending bank.
Dividend Announcements
·
On July 9, 2012, the Company declared a dividend for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012, of $0.27 per share, payable on August 7, 2012 to stockholders of record at the close of trading of the Company's common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on July 23, 2012. This was the Company’s seventh consecutive quarterly dividend since it commenced trading on the New York Stock Exchange.
Mr. Gregory Zikos, Chief Financial Officer of Costamare Inc., commented:
“During the second quarter of the year, the Company continued to deliver positive results.
“In May we accepted delivery of two 1998-built, second hand vessels, which replaced two 1984-built vessels in their respective charter arrangements; for an incremental cost of approximately six million per vessel we extended the useful life of those assets by 14 years.
“Last week we agreed to buy from an insolvency administrator a 2001-built 1,078 TEUs container vessel. The acquisition will be funded 100% with bank debt and forms part of a broader agreement between the Company and the vessel’s current lending bank.
“At the same time, we have reduced our re-chartering risk for the coming years. The charters for the vessels coming out of employment during the remaining of 2012 and 2013 account for 2% and 4% of our 2012 and 2013 contracted revenues respectively.
“Finally, on July 9 we declared a dividend for the second quarter of $ 0.27 per share. Consistent with our dividend policy, we continue to offer an attractive dividend, which we consider to be sustainable based on the size of our contracted cash flows, the quality of our charterers and the prudent amortization of our debt.
“We believe that going forward the Company is well positioned to pursue new business opportunities in a volatile market environment.”

(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.
(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. generally accepted accounting principles, or “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 are described in the notes to the “Fleet List” below.
(3) Adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures. Refer to the reconciliation of net income to adjusted net income and net income to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA below.
Non-GAAP Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (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. Tables below set out supplemental financial data and corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures for the six-month and three-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures include (i) Voyage revenue adjusted on a cash basis (reconciled above), (ii) Adjusted Net Income, (iii) Adjusted earnings per share, (iv) EBITDA and (v) Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted Net income and Adjusted Earnings per Share represent net income before gain/(loss) on sale of vessels, non-cash changes in fair value of derivatives, non-cash “Accrued charter revenue” recorded under charters with escalating charter rates and the cash of partial purchases of consumable stores for newly acquired vessels. “Accrued charter revenue” is attributed to the timing difference between the revenue recognition and the cash collection. However, Adjusted Net income and Adjusted Earnings per Share are not recognized measurements under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or “GAAP.” We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Net income 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 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 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 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 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 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.

EBITDA represents net income before interest and finance costs, interest income, depreciation and amortization of deferred dry-docking & special survey costs. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest and finance costs, interest income, depreciation, amortization of deferred dry-docking & special survey costs, gain/(loss) on sale of vessels, non-cash changes in fair value of derivatives, non-cash “Accrued charter revenue” recorded under charters with escalating charter rates and the cash of partial purchases of consumable stores for newly acquired vessels. “Accrued charter revenue” is attributed to the time difference between the revenue recognition and the cash collection. However, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized measurements under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or “GAAP.” We believe that the presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA 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 EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful in evaluating our ability to service additional debt and make capital expenditures. In addition, we believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful in evaluating our operating performance and liquidity position compared to that of other companies in our industry because the calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA generally eliminates the effects of financings, income taxes and the accounting effects of capital expenditures and acquisitions, items which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance and liquidity. In evaluating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, 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 EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
Note: Items to consider for comparability include gains and charges. Gains positively impacting net income are reflected as deductions to net income. Charges negatively impacting net income are reflected as increases to net income.
Results of Operations
Three-month period ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2011
During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we had an average of 46.4 and 48.7 vessels, respectively, in our fleet. In the three-month period ended June 30, 2012 we accepted delivery of the secondhand vessels Koroni and Kyparissia with an aggregate TEU capacity of 7,684 and we sold two second-hand vessels for scrap with an aggregate TEU capacity of 5,844. In the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 we sold three second-hand vessels with an aggregate TEU capacity of 4,914. In the three-month period ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 our fleet ownership days totaled 4,225 and 4,432 days, respectively. Ownership days are the primary driver 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.

Voyage Revenue
Voyage revenue increased by 1.8%, or $1.7 million, to $96.0 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $94.3 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2011. Ownership days decreased by 4.7% or 207 days to 4.225 days during the three month period ended June 30, 2012, from 4,432 days during the three month period ended June 30, 2011. The increase in Voyage revenues is mainly due to the fact that larger vessels, chartered on average at higher rates, were employed by the Company during the three month period ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three month period ended June 30, 2011. Voyage revenues adjusted on a cash basis (which eliminates non-cash “Accrued charter revenue”), decreased by 5.2%, or $5.3 million, to $96.5 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $101.8 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2011. The decrease is mainly attributable to the decreased ownership days of our fleet and the decreased charter hire received in accordance with certain escalation clauses of our charters during the three month period ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three month period ended June 30, 2011; partly offset by the fact that larger vessels, chartered on average at higher rates, were employed by the Company during the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Voyage Expenses
Voyage expenses increased by 14.3%, or $0.2 million, to $1.6 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $1.4 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to the off-hire expenses, mainly relating to bunkers consumption of the two vessels we acquired in the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, on their way to their charterers partially offset by the decreased third party commissions charged to us in the three-month period ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Voyage Expenses – related parties
Voyage expenses – related parties in the amount of $0.7 million during the three month period ended June 30, 2012 and in the amount of $0.7 million during the three month period ended June 30, 2011 represent fees of 0.75% on voyage revenues charged to us by Costamare Shipping Company S.A. as provided under our management agreement signed on November 4, 2010 (initial public offering completion date).
Vessels’ Operating Expenses
Vessels’ operating expenses, which also include the realized gain (loss) under derivative contracts entered into in relation to foreign currency exposure, increased by 1.8%, or $0.5 million, to $28.7 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $28.2 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2011. The increase is attributable to the delivery expenses of the two vessels we acquired during the three month period ended June 30, 2012 partly offset by the decreased ownership days of our fleet.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased by 7.7%, or $0.1 million, to $1.2 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $1.3 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2011. The decrease in the three-month period ended June 30, 2012 was mainly attributable to decreased public-company related expenses charged to us (i.e. legal, public relations and other) compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2011. Furthermore, general and administrative expenses for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 include $0.25 million for the services of the Company’s officers in aggregate charged to us by Costamare Shipping Company S.A. as provided under our management agreement signed on November 4, 2010.
Management Fees – related parties
Management fees paid to our managers decreased by 5.0%, or $0.2 million, to $3.8 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $4.0 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2011. The decrease was primarily attributable to the decreased fleet ownership days for the three month period ended June 30, 2012, compared to the three month period ended June 30, 2011.
Amortization of Dry-docking and Special Survey Costs
Amortization of deferred dry-docking and special survey costs was $2.0 million and $2.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, and for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011, respectively. During the three month period ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 no vessels and one vessel underwent their special survey, respectively.
Depreciation
Depreciation expense increased by 1.5%, or $0.3 million, to $19.9 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $19.6 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to the depreciation expense charged for the two vessels that were delivered to us during the three month period ended June 30, 2012 partly offset by the depreciation expense not charged following the sale of two vessels during the three month period ended June 30, 2012.
Gain on Sale of Vessels
In the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, we recorded a gain of $4.1 million from the sale of vessels Gifted and Genius I. In the three-month period ended June 30, 2011, we recorded a gain of $10.8 million from the sale of vessels MSC Sierra, MSC Namibia and MSC Sudan.
Foreign Exchange Gains / (Losses)
Foreign exchange gains were $0.2 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, compared to $0 during the three-month period ended June 30, 2011, representing a change of $0.2 million resulting from favorable currency exchange rate movements between the U.S. dollar and the Euro.
Interest Income
During the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, interest income increased by 300.0%, or $0.3 million, to $0.4 million, from $0.1 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2011. The change in interest income was mainly due to the increased cash deposits in interest bearing accounts during the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, compared to the three month-period ended June 30, 2011, which resulted from the increased average cash balance during the three month period ended June 30, 2012, compared to the three month period ended June 30, 2011.
Interest and Finance Costs
Interest and finance costs increased by 3.4%, or $0.6 million, to $18.0 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $17.4 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2011. The increase is partly attributable to increased financing costs and commitment fees charged to us mainly in relation to new credit facilities we entered into, in connection with our new building program partly offset by the capitalized interest in relation with our newbuilding program.
Gain (Loss) on Derivative Instruments
The fair value of our 28 interest rate derivative instruments which were outstanding as of June 30, 2012 equates to the amount that would be paid by us or to us should those instruments be terminated. As of June 30, 2012, the fair value of these 28 interest rate derivative instruments in aggregate amounted to a liability of $183.4 million. Twenty-seven of the 28 interest rate derivative instruments that were outstanding as at June 30, 2012 qualified for hedge accounting and the effective portion of the change in their fair value is recorded in “Comprehensive loss”. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2012, a loss of $19.8 million has been included in “Comprehensive loss” and a loss of $3.3 million has been included in “Gain (loss) on derivative instruments” in the consolidated statement of income, resulting from the fair market value change of the interest rate derivative instruments during the three-month period ended June 30, 2012.

The increase was primarily attributable to the favorable 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 $11.2 million, partly offset by decreased cash from operations of $5.2 million deriving from escalating charter rates.

Voyage Revenue
Voyage revenue increased by 8.8%, or $15.8 million, to $196.1 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $180.3 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2011. Ownership days decreased by 0.9% or 79 days to 8,452 days during the six month period ended June 30, 2012, from 8,531 days during the six month period ended June 30, 2011. The increase in Voyage revenues is mainly due to the fact that larger vessels, chartered on average at higher rates, were employed by the Company during the six month period ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six month period ended June 30, 2011. Voyage revenues adjusted on a cash basis (which eliminates non-cash “Accrued charter revenue”), increased by 0.7%, or $1.4 million, to $197.1 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $195.7 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2011. The increase is attributable to the fact that larger vessels, chartered on average at higher rates, were employed by the Company during the six month period ended June 30, 2012, compared to the six month period ended June 30, 2011; partly offset by decreased charter hire received in accordance with certain escalation clauses of our charters during the six month period ended June 30, 2012, compared to the six month period ended June 30, 2011.
Voyage Expenses
Voyage expenses decreased by 8.0%, or $0.2 million, to $2.3 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $2.5 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2011. The decrease was primarily attributable to the decreased off-hire expenses of our fleet, mainly bunkers consumption, and to the decreased number of vessels that were dry-docked during the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Voyage Expenses – related parties
Voyage expenses – related parties in the amount of $1.5 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, and in the amount of $1.4 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2011, represent fees of 0.75% on voyage revenues charged to us by Costamare Shipping Company S.A. as provided under our management agreement signed on November 4, 2010 (initial public offering completion date).
Vessels’ Operating Expenses
Vessels’ operating expenses, which also include the realized gain or loss under derivative contracts entered into in relation to foreign currency exposure, increased by 1.3%, or $0.7 million, to $56.4 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $55.7 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2011. The increase is attributable to the delivery expenses of the three vessels we acquired during the six month period ended June 30, 2012, partly offset by the decreased ownership days of our fleet.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased by 19.2%, or $0.5 million, to $2.1 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $2.6 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2011. The decrease in the six-month period ended June 30, 2012 was mainly attributable to decreased legal and audit fees charged to us compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2011. Furthermore, general and administrative expenses for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011 include $0.5 million, respectively, for the services of the Company’s officers in aggregate charged to us by Costamare Shipping Company S.A. as provided under our management agreement signed on November 4, 2010 (initial public offering completion date).
Management Fees – related parties
Management fees paid to our managers increased by 1.3%, or $0.1 million, to $7.6 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $7.5 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Amortization of Dry-docking and Special Survey Costs
Amortization of deferred dry-docking and special survey costs for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $3.9 million and $4.0 million, respectively. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, 2 vessels and 8 vessels, respectively, underwent their special survey.
Depreciation
Depreciation expense increased by 5.0%, or $1.9 million, to $39.9 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $38.0 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to the depreciation expense charged for the two containerships that were delivered to us during the six month period ended December 31, 2011 and to the three containerships delivered to us during the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, partly offset by the depreciation expense not charged relating to the seven vessels sold or disposed of during the six month period ended December 31, 2011 and the six-month period ended June 30, 2012.
Gain on Sale of Vessels
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, we recorded a gain of $1.3 million mainly from the sale of three vessels. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2011, we recorded a gain of $10.8 million from the sale of three vessels.
Foreign Exchange Gains
Foreign exchange gains amounted to $0.3 million and $0.1 million during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Interest Income
During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011, interest income was $0.7 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The change in interest income was mainly due to the increased cash deposits in interest bearing accounts during the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, compared to the six month-period ended June 30, 2011, which resulted from the increased average cash balance during the six month period ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six month period ended June 30, 2011.
Interest and Finance Costs
Interest and finance costs increased by 5.8%, or $2.1 million, to $38.2 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, from $36.1 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2011. The increase is partly attributable to increased interest expense, financing costs and commitment fees charged to us mainly in relation to new credit facilities we entered into with regards to our newbuilding program partly offset by the capitalized interest in relation with our newbuilding program.
Gain (Loss) on Derivative Instruments
The fair value of our 28 interest rate derivative instruments which were outstanding as of June 30, 2012 equates to the amount that would be paid by us or to us should those instruments be terminated. As of June 30, 2012, the fair value of these 28 interest rate derivative instruments in aggregate amounted to a liability of $183.4 million. Twenty-seven of the 28 interest rate derivative instruments that were outstanding as at June 30, 2012 qualified for hedge accounting and the effective portion of the change in their fair value is recorded in “Comprehensive loss”. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2012, a loss of $11.2 million has been included in “Comprehensive loss” and a loss of $1.5 million has been included in “Gain (loss) on derivative instruments” in the consolidated statement of income, resulting from the fair market value change of the interest rate derivative instruments during the six-month period ended June 30, 2012.
