GENERAL INFORMATION | |
GENERAL INFORMATION | 1 - GENERAL INFORMATION The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Genco Shipping & Trading Limited (“GS&T”) and its direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). The Company is engaged in the ocean transportation of drybulk cargoes worldwide through the ownership and operation of drybulk carrier vessels and operates in one business segment. At September 30, 2022, the Company’s fleet consisted of 44 drybulk vessels, including 17 Capesize drybulk carriers, 15 Ultramax drybulk carriers and twelve Supramax drybulk carriers, with an aggregate carrying capacity of approximately 4,636,000 dwt and an average age of approximately 10.6 years. During September 2021, the Company and Synergy Marine Pte. Ltd. (“Synergy”), a third party, formed a joint venture, GS Shipmanagement Pte. Ltd. (“GSSM”). GSSM is owned by Synergy as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and was formed to provide ship management services to the Company’s vessels. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the cumulative investments GSSM received from the Company and Synergy totaled Management has determined that GSSM qualifies as a variable interest entity, and, when aggregating the variable interest held by the Company and Synergy, the Company is the primary beneficiary as the Company has the ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact GSSM’s economic performance. Accordingly, the Company consolidates GSSM. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus strain, or COVID-19, to be a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic is having widespread, rapidly evolving, and unpredictable impacts on global society, economies, financial markets, and business practices. Over the course of the pandemic, governments have implemented measures in an effort to contain the virus, including social distancing, travel restrictions, border closures, limitations on public gatherings, working from home, supply chain logistical changes, and closure of non-essential businesses. This led to a significant slowdown in overall economic activity levels globally and a decline in demand for certain of the raw materials that our vessels transport. At present, it is not possible to ascertain any future impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operational and financial performance, which may take some time to materialize and may not be fully reflected in the results for 2022. However, an increase in the severity or duration or a resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic, any potential variants, the duration of China’s “zero-covid” policy and the timing of wide-scale vaccine distribution could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition, the carrying value of the Company’s assets, the fair values of the Company’s vessels, and the Company’s ability to pay dividends. |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of presentation The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), and the rules and regulations of the SEC that apply to interim financial statements, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures and footnotes normally included in complete consolidated financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. They should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 24, 2022 (the “2021 10-K”). The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of GS&T and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries and GSSM. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management of the Company, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and operating results have been included in the statements. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include vessel valuations, the valuation of amounts due from charterers, residual value of vessels, useful life of vessels, the fair value of time charters acquired, and the fair value of derivative instruments, if any. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash The Company considers highly liquid investments, such as money market funds and certificates of deposit with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Current and non-current restricted cash includes cash that is restricted pursuant to our credit facilities. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same amounts shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows: September 30, December 31, 2022 2021 Cash and cash equivalents $ 65,532 $ 114,573 Restricted cash - current 5,643 5,643 Restricted cash - noncurrent 315 315 Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 71,490 $ 120,531 Bunker swap and forward fuel purchase agreements From time to time, the Company may enter into fuel hedge agreements with the objective of reducing the risk of the effect of changing fuel prices. The Company has entered into bunker swap agreements and forward fuel purchase agreements. The Company’s bunker swap agreements and forward fuel purchase agreements do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment; therefore, any unrealized or realized gains and losses are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Derivatives are Level 2 instruments in the fair value hierarchy. During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded $326 and $84 of realized gains in other (expense) income, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded ($1,871) and $30 of unrealized (losses) gains in other (expense) income, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded $1,622 and $299 of realized gains in other (expense) income, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded ($112) and $81 of unrealized (losses) gains in other (expense) income, respectively. The total fair value of the bunker swap agreements and forward fuel purchase agreements in an asset position as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is $316 and $113 and are recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The total fair value of the bunker swap agreements and forward fuel purchase agreements in a liability position as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is Vessels, net Vessels, net is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Included in vessel costs are acquisition costs directly attributable to the acquisition of a vessel and expenditures made to prepare the vessel for its initial voyage. The Company also capitalizes interest costs for a vessel under construction as a cost that is directly attributable to the acquisition of a vessel. Vessels are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, determined to be Depreciation expense is calculated based on cost less the estimated residual scrap value. The costs of significant replacements, renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over the shorter of the vessel’s remaining estimated useful life or the estimated life of the renewal or betterment. Undepreciated cost of any asset component being replaced that was acquired after the initial vessel purchase is written off as a component of vessel operating expense. Expenditures for routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Scrap value is estimated by the Company by taking the cost of steel times the weight of the ship noted in lightweight tons (lwt). Effective January 1, 2022, the Company increased the estimated scrap value of the vessels from average scrap value of steel. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the increase in the estimated scrap value resulted in a decrease in depreciation expense of $1,171 . The decrease in depreciation expense resulted in a three months ended September 30, 2022. The basic and diluted net earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2022 would have been During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the increase in the estimated scrap value resulted in a decrease in depreciation expense of $3,476 . The decrease in depreciation expense resulted in a increase to the basic and diluted net earnings per share, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The basic and diluted net earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 would have been Voyage expense recognition In time charters and spot market-related time charters, operating costs including crews, maintenance and insurance are typically paid by the owner of the vessel and specified voyage costs such as fuel and port charges are paid by the charterer. These expenses are borne by the Company during spot market voyage charters. As such, there are significantly higher voyage expenses for spot market voyage charters as compared to time charters and spot market-related time charters. There are certain other non-specified voyage expenses, such as commissions, which are typically borne by the Company. At the inception of a time charter, the Company records the difference between the cost of bunker fuel delivered by the terminating charterer and the bunker fuel sold to the new charterer as a gain or loss within voyage expenses. Additionally, the Company records lower of cost and net realizable value adjustments to re-value the bunker fuel on a quarterly basis for certain time charter agreements where the inventory is subject to gains and losses. These differences in bunkers, including any lower of cost and net realizable value adjustments, resulted in a net (loss) gain of during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Additionally, voyage expenses include the cost of bunkers consumed during short-term time charters pursuant to the terms of the time charter agreement. Technical management fees Technical management fees include the direct costs, including operating costs, incurred by GSSM for the technical management of the vessels under its management. Additionally, prior to the transfer of our vessels to GSSM for technical management, we incurred management fees payable to third party technical management companies for the day-to-day management of our vessels, including performing routine maintenance, attending to vessel operation and arranging for crews and supplies. Recent accounting pronouncements In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04, “ Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”)” which provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the guidance in U.S. GAAP on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, “ Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) – Scope (“ASU 2021-01”),” which permits entities to apply optional expedients in Topic 848 to derivative instruments modified because of discounting transition resulting from reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 became effective upon issuance and may be applied prospectively to contract modification made on or before December 31, 2022. ASU 2021-01 became effective upon issuance and may be applied on a full retrospective basis as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020 or prospectively for contract modification made on or before December 31, 2022. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 and has determined that there is no effect on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures. |

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS | 8 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its floating rate debt. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had interest rate cap agreements outstanding to manage interest costs and the risk associated with variable interest rates. The interest rate cap agreements were initially designated and qualified as cash flow hedges. The premium paid is recognized in income on a rational basis, and all changes in the value of the caps are deferred in Accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) and are subsequently reclassified into Interest expense in the period when the hedged interest affects earnings. During the second quarter of 2022, based on the total outstanding debt under the $450 Million Credit Facility being below the total notional amount of the interest rate cap agreements, a portion of one of the interest rate cap agreements was dedesignated as a hedge. Subsequent gains and losses resulting from valuation adjustments on the dedesignated portion of the cap are recorded within interest expense. As the forecasted interest payments hedged are not remote of occurring, the amounts in AOCI as of the date of dedesignation will be recognized over the remaining original hedge period. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded a gain of The following table summarizes the interest rate cap agreements in place as of September 30, 2022.

The Company has elected to use the income approach to value the interest rate derivatives using observable Level 2 market expectations at the measurement date and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount (discounted) reflecting current market expectations about those future amounts. Level 2 inputs for derivative valuations are limited to quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets (specifically futures contracts) and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (specifically LIBOR cash and swap rates, implied volatility, basis swap adjustments, and credit risk at commonly quoted intervals). Mid-market pricing is used as a practical expedient for most fair value measurements. The Company recorded a $6,280 unrealized gain for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 in AOCI.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s other financial instruments as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 (principally Due from charterers and Accounts payable and accrued expenses) approximate fair values because of the relatively short maturity of these instruments. ASC Subtopic 820-10, “ Fair Value Measurements & Disclosures ” (“ASC 820-10”), applies to all assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis. This guidance enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumption (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows: ● Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments that the Company is able to access. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these instruments does not entail a significant degree of judgment. ● Level 2—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for instruments that are similar, or quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar instruments, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. ● Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are considered Level 1 items, as they represent liquid assets with short-term maturities. Floating rate debt is considered to be a Level 2 item, as the Company considers the estimate of rates it could obtain for similar debt or based upon transactions amongst third parties. Interest rate cap agreements, bunker swap agreements and forward fuel purchase agreements are considered to be Level 2 items. Refer to Note 8 — Derivative Instruments and Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, respectively, for further information. Nonrecurring fair value measurements include vessel impairment assessments completed during the interim period and at year-end as determined based on third-party quotes, which are based on various data points, including comparable sales of similar vessels, which are Level 2 inputs. There was vessel impairment recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The fair value determination for the operating lease right-of-use assets was based on third party quotes, which is considered a Level 2 input. Nonrecurring fair value measurements may include impairment tests of the Company’s operating lease right-of-use assets if there are indicators of impairments. indicators of impairment of the operating lease right-of-use assets. The Company did not have any Level 3 financial assets or liabilities as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
Basis of presentation | Basis of presentation The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), and the rules and regulations of the SEC that apply to interim financial statements, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures and footnotes normally included in complete consolidated financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. They should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 24, 2022 (the “2021 10-K”). The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of GS&T and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries and GSSM. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management of the Company, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and operating results have been included in the statements. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022. |
Use of estimates | Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include vessel valuations, the valuation of amounts due from charterers, residual value of vessels, useful life of vessels, the fair value of time charters acquired, and the fair value of derivative instruments, if any. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash The Company considers highly liquid investments, such as money market funds and certificates of deposit with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Current and non-current restricted cash includes cash that is restricted pursuant to our credit facilities. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same amounts shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows: September 30, December 31, 2022 2021 Cash and cash equivalents $ 65,532 $ 114,573 Restricted cash - current 5,643 5,643 Restricted cash - noncurrent 315 315 Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 71,490 $ 120,531 |
Bunker swaps and forward fuel purchase agreements | Bunker swap and forward fuel purchase agreements From time to time, the Company may enter into fuel hedge agreements with the objective of reducing the risk of the effect of changing fuel prices. The Company has entered into bunker swap agreements and forward fuel purchase agreements. The Company’s bunker swap agreements and forward fuel purchase agreements do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment; therefore, any unrealized or realized gains and losses are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Derivatives are Level 2 instruments in the fair value hierarchy. During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded $326 and $84 of realized gains in other (expense) income, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded ($1,871) and $30 of unrealized (losses) gains in other (expense) income, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded $1,622 and $299 of realized gains in other (expense) income, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded ($112) and $81 of unrealized (losses) gains in other (expense) income, respectively. The total fair value of the bunker swap agreements and forward fuel purchase agreements in an asset position as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is $316 and $113 and are recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The total fair value of the bunker swap agreements and forward fuel purchase agreements in a liability position as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is |
Vessels, net | Vessels, net Vessels, net is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Included in vessel costs are acquisition costs directly attributable to the acquisition of a vessel and expenditures made to prepare the vessel for its initial voyage. The Company also capitalizes interest costs for a vessel under construction as a cost that is directly attributable to the acquisition of a vessel. Vessels are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, determined to be Depreciation expense is calculated based on cost less the estimated residual scrap value. The costs of significant replacements, renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over the shorter of the vessel’s remaining estimated useful life or the estimated life of the renewal or betterment. Undepreciated cost of any asset component being replaced that was acquired after the initial vessel purchase is written off as a component of vessel operating expense. Expenditures for routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Scrap value is estimated by the Company by taking the cost of steel times the weight of the ship noted in lightweight tons (lwt). Effective January 1, 2022, the Company increased the estimated scrap value of the vessels from average scrap value of steel. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the increase in the estimated scrap value resulted in a decrease in depreciation expense of $1,171 . The decrease in depreciation expense resulted in a three months ended September 30, 2022. The basic and diluted net earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2022 would have been During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the increase in the estimated scrap value resulted in a decrease in depreciation expense of $3,476 . The decrease in depreciation expense resulted in a increase to the basic and diluted net earnings per share, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The basic and diluted net earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 would have been |
Voyage expense recognition | Voyage expense recognition In time charters and spot market-related time charters, operating costs including crews, maintenance and insurance are typically paid by the owner of the vessel and specified voyage costs such as fuel and port charges are paid by the charterer. These expenses are borne by the Company during spot market voyage charters. As such, there are significantly higher voyage expenses for spot market voyage charters as compared to time charters and spot market-related time charters. There are certain other non-specified voyage expenses, such as commissions, which are typically borne by the Company. At the inception of a time charter, the Company records the difference between the cost of bunker fuel delivered by the terminating charterer and the bunker fuel sold to the new charterer as a gain or loss within voyage expenses. Additionally, the Company records lower of cost and net realizable value adjustments to re-value the bunker fuel on a quarterly basis for certain time charter agreements where the inventory is subject to gains and losses. These differences in bunkers, including any lower of cost and net realizable value adjustments, resulted in a net (loss) gain of during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Additionally, voyage expenses include the cost of bunkers consumed during short-term time charters pursuant to the terms of the time charter agreement. |
Technical management fees | Technical management fees Technical management fees include the direct costs, including operating costs, incurred by GSSM for the technical management of the vessels under its management. Additionally, prior to the transfer of our vessels to GSSM for technical management, we incurred management fees payable to third party technical management companies for the day-to-day management of our vessels, including performing routine maintenance, attending to vessel operation and arranging for crews and supplies. |
Recent accounting pronouncements | Recent accounting pronouncements In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04, “ Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”)” which provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the guidance in U.S. GAAP on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, “ Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) – Scope (“ASU 2021-01”),” which permits entities to apply optional expedients in Topic 848 to derivative instruments modified because of discounting transition resulting from reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 became effective upon issuance and may be applied prospectively to contract modification made on or before December 31, 2022. ASU 2021-01 became effective upon issuance and may be applied on a full retrospective basis as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020 or prospectively for contract modification made on or before December 31, 2022. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 and has determined that there is no effect on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures. |
