Note 1 — Basis of Presentation:

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of International Seaways, Inc. (“INSW”), a Marshall Islands corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Unless the context indicates otherwise, references to “INSW”, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”, refer to International Seaways, Inc. and its subsidiaries. As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s operating fleet consisted of 76 wholly-owned or lease financed and time chartered-in oceangoing vessels, engaged primarily in the transportation of crude oil and refined petroleum products in the International Flag trade through its wholly owned subsidiaries. In addition to our operating fleet, six LR1 newbuilds are scheduled for delivery to the Company between the second half of 2025 and third quarter of 2026, bringing the total operating and newbuild fleet to 82 vessels.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

All intercompany balances and transactions within INSW have been eliminated. Investments in 50% or less owned affiliated companies, in which INSW exercises significant influence, are accounted for by the equity method.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies:

For a description of all of the Company’s material accounting policies, see Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following is a summary of any changes or updates to the Company’s critical accounting policies for the current period:

Concentration of Credit Risk **—**The allowance for credit losses is recognized as an allowance or contra-asset and reflects our best estimate of probable losses inherent in the voyage receivables balance. Activity for allowance for credit losses is summarized as follows:

​​​​
(Dollars in thousands)​​Allowance for Credit Losses - Voyage Receivables
Balance at December 31, 2023​$191
Reversal of expected credit losses​​(1)
Balance at September 30, 2024​$190

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not have any individual customers who accounted for 10% or more of its revenues apart from the pools in which it participates. The pools in which the Company participates accounted in aggregate for 97% and 95% of consolidated voyage receivables at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Deferred finance charges — Finance charges, excluding original issue discount, incurred in the arrangement of new debt and/or amendments resulting in the modification of existing debt are deferred and amortized to interest expense on either an effective interest

method or straight-line basis over the term of the related debt. Unamortized deferred finance charges of $11.8 million and $4.5 million relating to the $500 Million Revolving Credit Facility and the $160 Million Revolving Credit Facility (See Note 8, “Debt”) as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, are included in other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Unamortized deferred financing charges of $6.8 million and $11.3 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, relating to the Company’s outstanding debt facilities, are included in long-term debt in the consolidated balance sheets.

Interest expense relating to the amortization of deferred financing charges amounted to $0.8 million and $2.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and $1.2 million and $3.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

*Vessels construction in progress —*Interest costs are capitalized to vessels during the period that vessels are under construction.

Interest capitalized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 totaled $0.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively, andnil and $2.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. Construction of the Company’sthree dual-fuel LNG VLCCs was completed, and the vessels were delivered to the Company between March 2023 and May 2023. The Company hassix LR1 newbuilds under construction that are scheduled for delivery to the Company between the second half of 2025 and third quarter of 2026.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards — The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification is the sole source of authoritative GAAP other than United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued rules and regulations that apply only to SEC registrants. The FASB issues Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) to communicate changes to the codification.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07,Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This guidance is expected to improve financial reporting by providing additional information about a public company’s significant segment expenses and more timely and detailed segment information reporting throughout the fiscal year. This guidance requires annual and interim period disclosure of significant segment expenses that are provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) as well as interim disclosures for all reportable segments’ profit or loss. It also requires disclosure of the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 are effective for all public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and will apply retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the disclosures to our consolidated financial statements. As the guidance requires only additional disclosure, there will be no effects of this standard on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03,Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This guidance will require additional disclosures and disaggregation of certain costs and expenses presented on the face of the income statement. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting period beginning after December 15, 2027 with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance on the disclosures to our consolidated financial statements.

Note 3 — Earnings per Common Share:

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing earnings, after the deduction of dividends and undistributed earnings allocated to participating securities, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

The computation of diluted earnings per share assumes the issuance of common stock for all potentially dilutive stock options and restricted stock units not classified as participating securities. Participating securities are defined by ASC 260,Earnings Per Share, as

unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents and are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method.

Weighted average shares of unvested restricted common stock considered to be participating securities totaled 20,198 and 23,302 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and 29,519 and 38,288 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. Such participating securities are allocated a portion of income, but not losses under the two-class method. As of September 30, 2024, there were 419,215 shares of restricted stock units and 174,417 stock options outstanding and considered to be potentially dilutive securities.

Reconciliations of the numerator of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations are as follows:

​​​​​​​​​​​​​
​ · ​ · Three Months Ended September 30, · ​ · Nine Months Ended September 30,
(Dollars in thousands)​​2024​​2023​​2024​​2023
Net income allocated to:​​​​​​​​​​​​

Participating securities​​38​​59​​171​​321
​​$91,688​$97,937​$380,901​$424,332

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 earnings per share calculations, there were 336,905 and 374,871 dilutive equity awards outstanding, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 earnings per share calculations, there were 413,666 and 433,924 dilutive equity awards outstanding, respectively. Awards of 593,632 and 579,779 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and 774,957 and 804,199 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because inclusion of these awards would be anti-dilutive.

Note 4 — Business and Segment Reporting:

The Company hastwo reportable segments: Crude Tankers and Product Carriers. Adjusted income/(loss) from vessel operations for segment purposes is defined as income/(loss) from vessel operations before general and administrative expenses, other operating expenses, third-party debt modification fees and gain on disposal of vessels and assets, net. The accounting policies followed by the reportable segments are the same as those followed in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Shipping revenues​$225,190​$241,708​$757,000​$821,041

Consistent with general practice in the shipping industry, the Company uses time charter equivalent revenues, which represent shipping revenues less voyage expenses, as a measure to compare revenue generated from a voyage charter to revenue generated from a time charter. Time charter equivalent revenues, a non-GAAP measure, provide additional meaningful information in conjunction

with shipping revenues, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, because it assists Company management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of its vessels and in evaluating their financial performance.

Note 5 — Vessels:

Impairment of Vessels and Other Property

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company gave consideration as to whether events or changes in circumstances had occurred since December 31, 2023, that could indicate that the carrying amounts of the vessels in the Company’s fleet may not be recoverable. The Company determined that no held-for-sale or held-for-use impairment indicators existed for the Company’s vessels as of September 30, 2024.

Vessel Acquisitions and**Construction Commitments

On February 23, 2024, the Company entered into agreements to acquiretwo 2014-built andfour 2015-built MR Product Carriers for an aggregate consideration of approximately $232 million, payable 85% in cash and 15% in shares of common stock of the Company. Allsix vessels were delivered during the second quarter of 2024 and are Collateral Vessels under the $500 Million Revolving Credit Facility (see Note 8, “Debt”). In total, for the acquisition of the vessels, the Company paid $198.3 million in cash, including $1.1 million for initial stores on board and directly related third-party professional fees, and also issued 623,778 shares of its common stock to the sellers. Such shares had an aggregate value of $36.8 million based upon the closing market price of the Company’s stock on each of the vessel delivery dates.

An automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 was filed with the SEC on April 29, 2024 that, in connection with prospectus supplements filed during the second quarter of 2024, registered the aggregate 623,778 shares that were issued in conjunction with these vessel acquisitions and facilitated the seller’s ability to offer and sell or otherwise dispose of the shares of common stock issued to them under this transaction.

In March 2024 the Company exercised options to buildtwo additional dual-fuel ready LNG 73,600 dwt LR1s at the same shipyard from which its other four newbuild LR1s were ordered. Thesix LR1s are expected to be delivered beginning in the second half of 2025 through the third quarter of 2026 for an aggregate cost of approximately $359 million. The remaining commitments on the contracts for the construction of the LR1 newbuilds as of September 30, 2024 was $335.3 million, which will be paid for through a combination of long-term financing and available liquidity.

Disposal/Sales of Vessel**s

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company deliveredone 2009-built andtwo 2008-built MRs to their buyers and recognized an aggregate gain of $41.4 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company delivered a 2008-built MR to its buyer and recognized a gain of $10.9 million.

Note 6 — Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”):

Unconsolidated VIEs

As of September 30, 2024, all of theseven commercial pools in which the Company participates were determined to be VIEs for which the Company is not considered a primary beneficiary.

The following table presents the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet related to the unconsolidated VIEs as of September 30, 2024:

​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​
(Dollars in thousands)​​​​Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet

In accordance with accounting guidance, the Company evaluated its maximum exposure to loss related to these unconsolidated VIEs by assuming a complete loss of the Company’s investment in these VIEs. The table below compares the Company’s liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheet to the maximum exposure to loss at September 30, 2024:

​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​

In addition, as of September 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $182.5 million of trade receivables from the pools that were determined to be a VIE. These trade receivables, which are included in voyage receivables in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet, have been excluded from the above tables and the calculation of INSW’s maximum exposure to loss. The Company does not record the maximum exposure to loss as a liability because it does not believe that such a loss is probable of occurring as of September 30, 2024.

Derivatives

At September 30, 2024, the Company was party to amortizing interest rate swap agreements with major financial institutions participating in the$500 Million Revolving Credit Facility that effectively converts the Company’s interest rate exposure from a three-month SOFR floating rate to a fixed rate of 2.84% through the maturity date of February 22, 2027. The interest rate swap agreements, which contain no leverage features, are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges and have a remaining aggregate notional value of$255.6 million as of September 30, 2024, covering for accounting purposes, the$94.6 million principal balance outstanding under the$500 Million Revolving Credit Facility and$161.0 million outstanding under the Ocean Yield Lease Financing. Also, as of September 30, 2024, approximately$0.4 million in net gains from previously terminated interest rate swaps are expected to be amortized out of accumulated other comprehensive loss to earnings over the next 12 months.

Derivatives are recorded on a net basis by counterparty when a legal right of offset exists. The Company had the following amounts recorded on a net basis by transaction in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets related to the Company’s use of derivatives as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

ING Credit Facility

On April 18, 2024, the Company prepaid the outstanding principal balance of $20.3 million and terminated the ING Credit Facility.

$750 Million Credit Facility

On April 26, 2024, the Company, International Seaways Operating Corporation (the “Borrower”) and certain of their subsidiaries entered into a second amendment that amended and extended the $750 Million Credit Facility with Nordea Bank Abp, New York Branch (“Nordea”), BNP Paribas, Crédit Agricole Corporate & Investment Bank (“CA-CIB”), DNB Markets Inc., and Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB (PUBL) (or their respective affiliates), as mandated lead arrangers and bookrunners; ING Bank N.V., London Branch and Danish Ship Finance A/S (or their respective affiliates), as lead arrangers and National Australia Bank Limited, as co-arranger. Nordea is acting as administrative agent, collateral agent, coordinator and security trustee under the amended agreement, and CA-CIB is acting as sustainability coordinator.

Immediately prior to the closing of the second amendment, the $750 Million Facility, had a remaining term loan balance of $94.6 million and undrawn revolver capacity of $257.4 million. The amended agreement consists of a $500 million revolving credit facility

(the “$500 Million Revolving Credit Facility”) that matures on January 31, 2030. That maturity date is subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of certain events (as described in the credit agreement). The $500 Million Revolving Credit Facility is secured by a first lien on certain of the Company’s vessels (the “Collateral Vessels”), along with their earnings, insurances and certain other assets, as well as by liens on certain additional assets of the Borrower. Under the terms of the $500 Million Revolving Credit Facility capacity is reduced on a quarterly basis by approximately $12.8 million, based on a 20-year age-adjusted profile of the Collateral Vessels. The $500 Million Revolving Credit Facility bears an interest rate based on term SOFR plus the Applicable Margin (each as defined in the credit agreement). The Applicable Margin is 1.85% and is subject to similar sustainability-linked features as included in the $750 Million Credit Facility, that are aimed at reducing the carbon footprint, targeting expenditures toward energy efficiency improvements and maintaining a safety record above the industry average. The Company’s performance against these sustainability measures could impact the margin by five basis points. At the time of closing, $94.6 million was drawn on the $500 Million Revolving Credit Facility. An additional $50 million was drawn in June 2024, and subsequently repaid during the three months ended September 30, 2024.

An aggregate of $94.6 million was outstanding as of September 30, 2024, leaving us an undrawn revolver capacity of $392.6 million on this facility.

The $500 Million Revolving Credit Facility also contains customary representations, warranties, restrictions and covenants applicable to the Company, the Borrower and the subsidiary guarantors (and in certain cases, other subsidiaries), including financial covenants that are consistent with existing financial covenants in the $750 Million Credit Facility and require the Company (i) to maintain a minimum liquidity level of the greater of $50 million and 5% of the Company’s Consolidated Indebtedness; (ii) to ensure the Company’s and its consolidated subsidiaries’ Maximum Leverage Ratio will not exceed 0.60 to 1.00 at any time; (iii) to ensure that Current Assets exceeds Current Liabilities (which is defined to exclude the current potion of Consolidated Indebtedness); and (iv) to ensure the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Collateral Vessels will not be less than 135% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the $500 Million Revolving Credit Facility.

Debt Covenants

The Company was in compliance with the financial and non-financial covenants under all of its financing arrangements as of September 30, 2024.

Interest Expense

Total interest expense before the impact of capitalized interest, including amortization of issuance and deferred financing costs, commitment, administrative and other fees for all of the Company’s debt facilities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $12.6 million and $37.8 million, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $16.7 million and $53.2 million, respectively. Interest paid for the Company’s debt facilities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $11.3 million and $34.5 million, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $16.8 million and $52.8 million, respectively. Interest paid for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 also included$2.0 million of the pre-delivery interest expense paid for the three dual-fuel LNG VLCC newbuilds.

Note 9 — Taxes:

As of September 30, 2024, the Company qualifies for an exemption from U.S. federal income taxes under Section 883 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and U.S. Treasury Department regulations for the 2024 calendar year, as less than 50 percent of the total value of the Company’s stock was held by one or more shareholders who own 5% or more of the Company’s stock for more than half of the days of 2024.

The Company reviews its provisions for uncertain tax positions relating to freight taxes in various tax jurisdictions on a regular basis and may update its assessment of its tax positions based on available information at that time. Such information may include additional legal advice as to the applicability of freight taxes in relevant jurisdictions. Freight tax regulations are subject to change and interpretation; therefore, the amounts recorded by the Company may change accordingly. There were no changes in such reserve recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

Additionally, a number of countries, including some in which certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are domiciled, have drafted or are actively considering drafting legislation to implement the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development's (“OECD”) international tax framework, including the Pillar Two Model Rules. These model rules call for a minimum global tax of 15% on large multinational enterprises with possible application from January 1, 2024 or later, depending on implementation by the individual countries in which the Company is domiciled. As currently enacted, the Pillar Two Model Rules have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements in 2024, however, the Company is monitoring these developments and evaluating the necessary steps it can take to minimize the impact, if any, to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and operations going forward.

Note 10 — Capital Stock and Stock Compensation:

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation expense in accordance with the fair value method required by ASC 718,Compensation – Stock Compensation. Such fair value method requires share-based payment transactions to be measured according to the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

Director Compensation – Restricted Common Stock

On February 19, 2024, Mr. Nadim Qureshi resigned from the Board of Directors of the Company. Mr. Qureshi’s resignation was not the result of any disagreement with the Company or the Board on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. In connection with his resignation, the Board approved the accelerated vesting of the 2,635 restricted shares of INSW common stock previously granted to Mr. Qureshi in June 2023 (valued at approximately $0.1 million) and the Company did not seek reimbursement of any cash director fees paid to Mr. Qureshi in advance for the first quarter of 2024. In consideration of this action, Mr. Qureshi entered into a one-year agreement not to compete with the Company’s crude and product tanker operations.

In June 2024, the Company awarded a total of 20,198 restricted common stock shares to itsnon-employee directors. The weighted average fair market value of INSW’s stock on the measurement date of such awards was $57.17 per share. Such restricted share awards vest in full on the earlier of the next annual meeting of the stockholders or June 13, 2025, subject to each director continuing to provide services to INSW through such date. The restricted share awards granted may not be transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise encumbered prior to vesting. Prior to the vesting date, a holder of restricted share awards otherwise has all the rights of a shareholder of INSW, including the right to vote such shares and the right to receive dividends paid with respect to such shares at the same time as common shareholders generally.

Management Compensation

Stock Options

There wereno stock options granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. A total of 65,179 and 25,937 stock options were exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, by certain senior officers and employees of the Company at an average exercise price of $21.74 and $22.11 per share, respectively. After withholdings for taxes and costs, the Company issued a total of 18,765 and 6,843 shares, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, in conjunction with these exercises.

Restricted Stock Units

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company granted 82,076 time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to certain of its senior officers and employees. The weighted average grant date fair value of these awards was $52.99 per RSU. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receiveone share of INSW common stock upon vesting.48,078 of the RSUs awarded will vest in equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date and 33,998 of the RSUs awarded will cliff vest on October 24, 2025.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company also granted 48,080 performance-based RSUs to certain of its senior officers. Each performance stock unit represents a contingent right to receive RSUs based upon the covered employees being continuously employed through the end of the period over which the performance goals are measured and shall vest as follows: (i) one-half of the target RSUs shall vest on December 31, 2026, subject to INSW’s return on invested capital (“ROIC”) performance in the three-year ROIC performance period relative to a target rate (the “ROIC Target”) set forth in the award agreements; and (ii) one-half of the target RSUs shall vest on December 31, 2026, subject to INSW’s three-year total shareholder return (“TSR”) performance relative to that of a performance peer group over a three-year performance period (“TSR Target”). Vesting is subject in each case to the Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors’ certification of achievement of the performance measures and targets no later than March 15, 2027. The weighted average grant date fair value of the awards with performance conditions was determined to be $52.57 per RSU. The weighted average grant date fair value of the TSR based performance awards which have a market condition was estimated using a Monte Carlo probability model and determined to be $41.08 per RSU.

Note 12 — Revenue:

Revenue Recognition

The majority of the Company’s contracts for pool revenues, time charter revenues, and voyage charter revenues are accounted for as lease revenue under ASC 842. The Company’s contracts with pools are short term which are cancellable with up to 90 days’ notice. As of September 30, 2024, the Company is a party to time charter out contracts with customers onthree VLCCs, two Suezmaxes, one Aframax, one LR2, andeight MRs with expiry dates ranging from November 2024 to April 2030. The Company’s contracts with customers for voyage charters are short term and vary in length based upon the duration of each voyage. Lease revenue for non-variable lease payments is recognized over the lease term on a straight-line basis and lease revenue for variable lease payments (e.g., demurrage) is recognized in the period in which the changes in facts and circumstances on which the variable lease payments are based occur.

Lightering services provided by the Company’s Crude Tanker Lightering Business, and voyage charter contracts that do not meet the definition of a lease are accounted for as service revenues under ASC 606. In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of or consumes promised services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these services.

The following tables present the Company’s revenues from leases accounted for under ASC 842 and revenues from services accounted for under ASC 606 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:

Contract Balances

The following table provides information about receivables, contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers, and significant changes in contract assets and liabilities balances, associated with revenue from services accounted for under ASC 606.

Balances related to revenues from leases accounted for under ASC 842 are excluded from the table below.

​​​​​​​​​​
(Dollars in thousands) · ​ · Voyage receivables - Billed receivables · ​ · Contract assets (Unbilled voyage receivables) · ​ · Contract liabilities (Deferred revenues and off hires)
Opening balance as of January 1, 2024​$6,512​$1,029​$—
Closing balance as of September 30, 2024​​4,665​​184​​—

We receive payments from customers based on the schedule established in our contracts. Contract assets relate to our conditional right to consideration for our completed performance obligations under contracts and decrease when the right to consideration becomes unconditional or payments are received. Contract liabilities include payments received in advance of performance under contracts and are recognized when performance under the respective contract has been completed. Deferred revenues allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations will be recognized over time as the services are performed.

Performance Obligations

All of the Company’s performance obligations are generally transferred to customers over time. The expected duration of services is less than one year. There were no material adjustments in revenues from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Contract

As of September 30, 2024, there wereno unamortized deferred costs of obtaining or fulfilling a contract.

European Union’s Emissions Trading System

Commencing January 1, 2024, the European Union’s Emissions Trading System (“EU ETS”) was extended to cover Carbon dioxide (“CO 2”) emissions from ships over 5,000 gross tons entering EU ports. The EU ETS covers (a) 50% of emissions from voyages either starting in or ending in an EU port, and (b) 100% of emissions from voyages between two EU ports or emissions generated while a ship is within an EU port.

Shipping companies will have to surrender EU ETS emissions allowances (“EUA”) for each ton of reported CO 2 emissions in the scope of the EU ETS. There is a phase-in period for the regulations, as allowances will have to be submitted for 40% of 2024 emissions, 70% of 2025 emissions and 100% of emissions for 2026 and subsequent years. Beginning in 2026, the scope of the EU ETS will also be expanded to include Methane (“CH 4”) and Nitrous oxide (“N 2 O”).

EUAs are valued based upon a market approach utilizing prices published on an EUA market index. The value of the EUAs to be provided to the Company pursuant to the terms of its agreements with the charterers of its vessels and the commercial pools in which it participates is included in shipping revenues in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The value of the EUA obligations incurred by the Company under the EU ETS while its vessels are on-hire is included in voyage expenses, or in vessel expenses while its vessels are off-hire, in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

EUAs held by the Company are intended to be used to settle its EUA obligations and are accounted for as intangible assets. The Company did not hold any EUAs as of September 30, 2024. EUAs relating to 2024 emissions are required to be surrendered to the EU authorities in September 2025.

The following table presents the components of the non-cash revenues and expenses recognized for EUAs earned and incurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:

​​​​​​​​​​​​​
​ · ​ · Three Months Ended September 30, · ​ · Nine Months Ended September 30,

Total shipping revenues​$1,365​$—​$3,900​$—
​​​​​​​​​​​​​
Voyage expenses​$1,365​$—​$3,900​$—

The value of EUAs due to the Company from its charterers or commercial pools in which it participates, and the value of the EUAs the Company is obligated to surrender to the EU authorities is $3.9 million as of September 30, 2024 and is included in other receivables andother current liabilities, respectively, in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Note 13 — Leases:

As permitted under ASC 842, the Company has elected not to apply the provisions of ASC 842 to short term leases, which include: (i) tanker vessels chartered-in where the duration of the charter was one year or less at lease commencement; (ii) workboats employed in the Crude Tankers Lightering business which have a lease term of 12-months or less; and (iii) short term leases of office and other space.

The future minimum contracted revenues, before the deduction of brokerage commissions, expected to be received on non-cancelable time charters forthree VLCCs, two Suezmaxes, one Aframax, one LR2, andeight MRs, and the related revenue days as of September 30, 2024 are as follows:

​​​​​​
(Dollars in thousands) · ​ · Amount · ​ · Revenue Days

Future minimum contracted revenues do not include the Company’s share of time charters entered into by the pools in which it participates or profit-sharing above the base rate on the newbuild dual-fuel LNG VLCCs. Revenues from a time charter are not generally received when a vessel is off-hire, including time required for normal periodic maintenance of the vessel. In arriving at the minimum future charter revenues, an estimated time off-hire to perform periodic maintenance on each vessel has been deducted, although there is no assurance that such estimate will be reflective of the actual off-hire in the future.

See Note 15, “Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans,” for additional information on the Company’s defined benefit pension plan obligations.

Note 15 – Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans

Defined Benefit Pension Plan

In September 2024, the Company contributed $3.6 million into the OSG Ship Management (UK) Ltd. Retirement Benefits Plan (the “Plan”) to allow the Trustee of the Plan to purchase a $21.0 million insurance contract tailored to match the full value of future Plan benefits payable from the Plan. In this arrangement, the Company’s pension benefit obligation and related risks and rewards are not transferred to the insurance company, and as a result, the Company continues to be responsible for paying the benefits. However, this arrangement generally constitutes an economic settlement of the liability by eliminating relevant risks associated with changes to the obligation, including investment, interest rate and longevity risk. The contract is accounted for as a plan asset in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2024. As this arrangement does not qualify for settlement accounting under ASC 715,Compensation – Retirement Benefits, the corresponding obligation is netted against the plan asset in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at an equal amount.

The Company expects the benefits due to the participants under the Plan to be transferred to the insurance company at the completion of their standard review of the Plan’s underlying data with minimal or no additional cost to the Company. At such time, the Company believes the arrangement will qualify for the settlement accounting.

Multi-Employer Plans

The Merchant Navy Officers Pension Fund (“MNOPF”) is a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan covering British crew members that served as officers on board INSW’s vessels (as well as vessels of other owners). The Trustees of the MNOPF have indicated that, under the terms of the High Court ruling in 2005, which established the liability of past employers to fund the deficit on the Post 1978 section of MNOPF, calls for further contributions may be required if additional actuarial deficits arise or if other employers liable for contributions are not able to pay their share in the future. On July 11, 2024, the Company and the Trustees of the MNOPF entered into an agreement pursuant to which the Company paid $0.1 million and the Trustees of the MNOPF agreed not to seek any future contributions from the Company.

The Merchant Navy Ratings Pension Fund (“MNRPF”) is a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan covering British crew members that served as ratings (seamen) on board INSW’s vessels (as well as vessels of other owners) more than 20 years ago. Based on a High Court ruling in 2015, the Trustees of the MNRPF levied assessments to recover the significant deficit in the plan from participating employers. Participating employers include current employers, historic employers that have made voluntary contributions, and historic employers such as INSW that have made no deficit contributions. In September 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with the Trustees of the MNRPF to release the Company from any future obligation to fund deficits in the plan in exchange for the Company’s payment of $0.8 million.

The Company also made payments totaling $0.1 million to reimburse the Trustees of the MNOPF and MNRPF for costs incurred in connection with the agreements entered into with the Company.

Note 16 — Contingencies:

INSW’s policy for recording legal costs related to contingencies is to expense such legal costs as incurred.

Legal Proceedings Arising in the Ordinary Course of Business

The Company is a party, as plaintiff or defendant, to various suits in the ordinary course of business for monetary relief arising principally from personal injuries, wrongful death, collision or other casualty and to claims arising under charter parties and other contract disputes. A substantial majority of such personal injury, wrongful death, collision or other casualty claims against the

Company are covered by insurance (subject to deductibles not material in amount). Each of the claims involves an amount which, in the opinion of management, should not be material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In late July 2023, one of the Company’s vessels was arrested in connection with a commercial dispute arising earlier in 2023. Although the vessel was subsequently released, the arresting parties continue to seek approximately $25 million in security. The underlying commercial dispute is in arbitration in England. The Company is defending itself vigorously against the arrest and the allegations in the underlying dispute. The Company is currently unable to predict the outcome of this matter, andno estimate of liability has been accrued at this time.
