(1) Expected Revenue Days are the total number of calendar days in the quarter for each vessel, less the total number of estimated off-hire days during the period associated with repairs or drydockings. Consequently, Expected Revenue Days represent the total number of days the vessel is expected to be available to earn revenue. Idle days, which are days when a vessel is available to earn revenue, yet is not employed, are included in Expected Revenue days. The Company uses Expected Revenue days to show changes in net vessel revenues between periods.

  • Below is a summary of the average daily TCE revenue earned by the Company's vessels during the second quarter of 2026:
  Average Daily TCE Revenue  
Vessel class Pool / Spot Time Charters Daily Bareboat Charter Rate
LR2 $ 77,749 $ 30,408 $
MR $ 52,027 $ 26,938 $ 12,986
Handymax $ 49,210 $ 22,868 $
  • In July 2026, the Company signed a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) to purchase two scrubber-fitted LR2 newbuilding product tankers for $72.8 million per vessel. The vessels are to be constructed by Jiangsu Hantong Ship Heavy Industry Co., Ltd. in China and deliveries are expected in the second and third quarters of 2029.
  • In July 2026, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which it will acquire a minority ownership interest (less than 15%) in a joint venture which has entered into shipbuilding contracts to construct eight scrubber fitted Very Large Crude Carriers (“VLCCs”) with deliveries scheduled between the third quarter of 2029 and the second quarter of 2030. The equity portion of the investment is scheduled to be paid when installment payments become payable pursuant to the shipbuilding contracts.
  • In June 2026, the Company entered into agreements to purchase two scrubber-fitted MR newbuilding product tankers for $46.33 million per vessel. The vessels are expected to be constructed at Jiangsu Yangzi-Mitsui Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. in China and deliveries are expected in the first quarter of 2030. Aside from a 10% initial deposit, the remaining payments are not due until 2028 or later. These agreements were previously announced as a letter of intent in May 2026.
  • The Company recently reached agreements to time charter-out three 2015 built MR product tankers consisting of STI Notting Hill and STI Westminster, each for three years at a rate of $25,000 per day, and STI Bronx for three years at a rate of $23,900 per day.

The issuance in May 2026 was executed at a price of 110.25 to par for $253.6 million in gross proceeds and resulting in a combined yield to maturity on both issuances of below one percent. The Convertible Notes are scheduled to mature on April 15, 2031, unless earlier converted, repurchased, or redeemed. Upon conversion, the Company has the option to settle the Convertible Notes in cash, shares of its common stock, or a combination of cash and shares.

  • In June 2026, the Company received a commitment from Standard Chartered Bank and DekaBank Deutsche Girozentrale for a credit facility of up to $90 million (the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility is expected to be used to finance a portion of the purchase price of four scrubber-fitted MR newbuilding product tankers, which are currently under construction at Jingjiang Nanyang Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. in China with expected deliveries in the second half of 2026 and 2027. The Credit Facility has a final maturity of seven years from the delivery date of each vessel and bears interest at SOFR plus a margin of 1.20% per annum.
  • In July 2026, the Company closed on the sales of four LR2 product tankers for $285.8 million in aggregate and one MR for $35.0 million. These sales consisted of two 2014 built LR2 product tankers, STI Broadway and STI Condotti, two 2015 LR2 product tankers, STI Winnie and STI Lauren, and the 2015 built MR product tanker, STI Brooklyn.
  • During the second quarter of 2026, the Company closed on the sales of 10 vessels including three 2014 built MR product tankers, STI Opera, STI Aqua and STI Regina, for $105.0 million, three 2015 built MR product tankers, STI Osceola, STI Seneca and STI Black Hawk, for $105.0 million, three 2014 built LR2 product tankers, STI Park, STI Sloane and STI Madison, for $195.0 million, and one 2015 built LR2 product tanker, STI Solidarity, for $60.0 million.

Securities Repurchase Program

In April 2026, the Company repurchased 1,344,809 shares of its common stock, concurrently with the closing of the initial $375.0 million principal amount of Convertible Notes in privately negotiated transactions at $74.36 per share.

On May 4, 2026, the Board of Directors replenished and increased the 2023 Securities Repurchase Program to purchase up to an aggregate of $500.0 million of the Company’s securities, which currently include its common stock and Convertible Notes. This resets the program which had been previously replenished on July 29, 2024.

On May 7, 2026, the Company repurchased 649,427 shares of its common stock, concurrently with the closing of the issuance of $230.0 million principal amount of Convertible Notes in privately negotiated transactions at $84.69 per share.

As of July 30, 2026, $445.0 million remains available under the Company's 2023 Securities Repurchase Program.

Diluted Weighted Number of Shares

The computation of earnings per share is determined by taking into consideration the potentially dilutive shares arising from (i) the Company’s equity incentive plan, and (ii) the Company's Convertible Notes. Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the computation of earnings per share to the extent they are anti-dilutive.

The impact of the Convertible Notes on earnings or loss per share is computed using the if-converted method. Under this method, the Company first includes the potentially dilutive impact of restricted shares issued under the Company's equity incentive plan, and then assumes that its Convertible Notes, which were issued during the second quarter of 2026, were converted into common shares during each period. The if-converted method also assumes that the interest and non-cash amortization expense associated with these notes of $7.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were not incurred. Conversion is not assumed if the results of this calculation are anti-dilutive.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company’s basic weighted average number of shares outstanding were 45,730,028 and 46,457,406, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company’s diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding were 53,539,590 and 51,928,585, respectively, which included the potentially dilutive impact of restricted shares issued under the Company’s equity incentive plan and shares arising from the Company's Convertible Notes if converted.

Diluted earnings per share for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were calculated under the if-converted method.

The credit facility has a final maturity of seven years from the drawdown date of each vessel and bears interest at SOFR plus a margin of 1.20% per annum.

(5) In June 2026, the Company issued a redemption notice to redeem its Unsecured Senior Notes Due 2030. The notes were redeemed in July 2026 at a make-whole price of 106.4 to par ($212.8 million) plus accrued but unpaid interest.

Explanation of Variances on the Second Quarter of 2026 Financial Results Compared to the Second Quarter of 2025

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded net income of $387.5 million compared to net income of $73.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The following were the significant changes between the two periods:

  • TCE revenue, a Non-IFRS measure, is vessel revenues less voyage expenses (including bunkers and port charges). TCE revenue is included herein because it is a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period-to-period changes in a shipping company's performance irrespective of changes in the mix of charter types (i.e., spot voyages, time charters, and pool charters), and it provides useful information to investors and management. The following table sets forth TCE revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026, and 2025:
      For the three months ended June 30,
In thousands of U.S. dollars     2026       2025  
  Vessel revenue   $ 408,734     $ 230,225  
  Voyage expenses     (16,934 )     (7,461 )
  TCE revenue   $ 391,800     $ 222,764  
                   
  • TCE revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased by $169.0 million to $391.8 million, from $222.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 despite the average number of vessels decreasing to 84.5 during the three months ended June 30, 2026 from 99.0 during the three months ended June 30, 2025. Overall, the average daily TCE revenue increased to $52,661 per vessel during the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $25,569 per vessel during the three months ended June 30, 2025. 

    TCE revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased as compared to the same period in the previous year reflecting a significantly stronger product tanker market in the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The three months ended June 30, 2026 were impacted by the conflict in the Middle East. Initially the disruptions stemming from the conflict caused daily spot TCE rates to spike to record levels as exports through the Strait of Hormuz ground to a halt and barrels had to be sourced from more distant markets, causing the global fleet to reposition to accommodate new trading patterns. As the quarter progressed, these initial disruptions gave way to an environment marked by lower export volumes and a repositioned global fleet. Consequently, daily spot TCE rates trended down from record highs towards the end of the quarter. Nevertheless, longer voyage distances from these new trade routes mitigated the impact of lower export volumes through the Strait of Hormuz, and kept daily spot TCE rates elevated as compared to the same quarter in the previous year.
  • Vessel operating costs for the three months ended June 30, 2026 decreased by $3.9 million to $64.8 million, from $68.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 due to a decrease in the average number of vessels, resulting from the sale of 11 MRs and nine LR2s since June 30, 2025. Vessel operating costs increased to $8,394 per vessel per day for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $7,630 per vessel per day for the three months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to higher repairs and maintenance and spares and stores expenses on LR2 and MR vessels, as well as the timing of certain expenses. Additionally, the repositioning and new trade routes that emerged as a result of the conflict in the Middle East led to increased vessel operating expenses as supply chains recalibrated.
  • Depreciation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026 decreased by $9.1 million to $36.2 million, from $45.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. This decrease resulted from 25 vessels either being sold or classified as held for sale since June 30, 2025.
  • General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased by $16.9 million to $46.6 million, from $29.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to an increase in compensation related costs.
  • Financial expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased by $14.8 million to $36.1 million, from $21.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as a result $20.2 million of debt extinguishment costs and write-offs of deferred financing fees associated with the repayment of $389.1 million of secured debt and the $12.8 million make-whole premium associated with the redemption of the Unsecured Senior Notes due 2030 (compared to $1.8 million during the prior year period). 

    Excluding the debt extinguishment costs and write-offs of deferred financing fees, our financial expense decreased by $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. While our average debt remained consistent at $950.4 million compared to $946.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively, our average cost of debt decreased due to the change in the composition of debt resulting from the issuance of the Convertible Notes and the repayment of our secured credit facilities. In addition, $1.3 million of interest was capitalized related to the installments paid on vessels under construction during the three months ended June 30, 2026. 

    Amortization of deferred financing fees was $1.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and $1.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025.
  • Dividend income and fair value gain (loss) on financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss, net for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was a gain of $9.3 million, consisting of a fair value gain of $7.5 million and $1.7 million of dividends related to our investment in DHT Holdings Inc., which was sold in the fourth quarter of 2025.
  • Fair value gain on financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss represents the change in the fair value of the embedded conversion derivative associated with our Convertible Notes since issuance. The embedded derivative is measured at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss in accordance with IFRS.
  • Other income and (expenses), net include $4.0 million of transaction costs related to the issuance of the Convertible Notes during the three months ended June 30, 2026. Under IFRS, transaction costs incurred as part of a convertible financial instrument are apportioned to the conversion feature and to the underlying debt host. The costs apportioned to the conversion feature, accounted for as a derivative liability, are expensed upon issuance. The costs apportioned to the underlying debt host are recorded as part of the financial liability and amortized over the term of the instrument.

(1) See Non-IFRS Measures section below.
   
(2) Freight rates are commonly measured in the shipping industry in terms of time charter equivalent per day (or TCE per day), which is calculated by subtracting voyage expenses, including bunkers and port charges, from vessel revenue and dividing the net amount (time charter equivalent revenues) by the number of revenue days in the period. Revenue days are the number of days vessels are part of the fleet less the number of days vessels are off-hire for drydock and repairs. 

For bareboat chartered-out vessels, the charterers are responsible for the vessel operating costs. 
   
(3) Vessel operating costs per day represent vessel operating costs divided by the number of operating days during the period. Operating days are the total number of available days in a period with respect to vessels that are owned, operating under a lease financing arrangement, or bareboat chartered-in, before deducting available days due to off-hire days and days in drydock. Operating days is a measurement that is only applicable to vessels that are owned, operating under a lease financing arrangement, or bareboat chartered-in, not time chartered-in vessels.

Non-IFRS Measures

Reconciliation of IFRS Financial Information to Non-IFRS Financial Information

This press release describes time charter equivalent revenue, or TCE revenue, adjusted net income or loss, and adjusted EBITDA, which are not measures prepared in accordance with IFRS ("Non-IFRS" measures). The Non-IFRS measures are presented in this press release as we believe that they provide investors and other users of our financial statements, such as our lenders, with a means of evaluating and understanding how the Company's management evaluates the Company's operating performance. These Non-IFRS measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or superior to financial measures prepared in accordance with IFRS.

The Company believes that the presentation of TCE revenue, adjusted net income or loss with adjusted earnings or loss per share, basic and diluted, and adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors or other users of our financial statements, such as our lenders, because they facilitate the comparability and the evaluation of companies in the Company’s industry. In addition, the Company believes that TCE revenue, adjusted net income or loss with adjusted earnings or loss per share, basic and diluted, and adjusted EBITDA are useful in evaluating its operating performance compared to that of other companies in the Company’s industry. The Company’s definitions of TCE revenue, adjusted net income or loss with adjusted earnings or loss per share, basic and diluted, and adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as reported by other companies in the shipping industry or other industries.

TCE revenue, on a historical basis, is reconciled above in the section entitled "Explanation of Variances on the Second Quarter of 2026 Financial Results Compared to the Second Quarter of 2025". The Company has not provided a reconciliation of forward-looking TCE revenue because the most directly comparable IFRS measure on a forward-looking basis is not available to the Company without unreasonable effort.

Forward-Looking Statements

Matters discussed in this press release may constitute forward‐looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbor protections for forward‐looking statements in order to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their business. Forward‐looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical facts. The Company desires to take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is including this cautionary statement in connection with this safe harbor legislation. The words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "plan," "target," "project," "likely," "may," "will," "would," "could" and similar expressions identify forward‐looking statements.

The forward‐looking statements in this press release are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, management’s examination of historical operating trends, data contained in the Company’s records and other data available from third parties. Although management believes that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond the Company’s control, there can be no assurance that the Company will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections. The Company undertakes no obligation, and specifically declines any obligation, except as required by law, to publicly update or revise any forward‐looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

In addition to these important factors, other important factors that, in the Company’s view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward‐looking statements include unforeseen liabilities, future capital expenditures, revenues, expenses, earnings, synergies, economic performance, indebtedness, financial condition, losses, future prospects, expansion and growth of the Company’s operations, risks relating to the integration of assets or operations of entities that it has or may in the future acquire and the possibility that the anticipated synergies and other benefits of such acquisitions may not be realized within expected timeframes or at all, the failure of counterparties to fully perform their contracts with the Company, the strength of world economies and currencies, general market conditions, including fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values, changes in demand for tanker vessel capacity, changes in the Company’s operating expenses, including bunker prices, drydocking and insurance costs, the market for the Company’s vessels, availability of financing and refinancing, charter counterparty performance, ability to obtain financing and comply with covenants in such financing arrangements, changes in governmental rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory authorities, the impact of the current and future sanctions that may impact the transportation of petroleum products, the ongoing military conflict in Iran which has had a significant direct and indirect impact on the trade of crude oil and refined petroleum products, potential disruption of shipping routes due to accidents or political events, potential liability from pending or future litigation, general domestic and international political conditions, which have and may continue to disrupt certain global shipping routes, vessel breakdowns and instances of off‐hires, and other factors. Please see the Company's filings with the SEC for a more complete discussion of certain of these and other risks and uncertainties.
