Current report

Increased trade tensions between the U.S. and China could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial results.

Current report

On April 17, 2025, the United States Trade Representative (“USTR”) implemented significant trade actions as the result of an investigation conducted under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974, including a fee to be paid by a vessel’s operator for any vessel owned or operated by a Chinese entity arriving to a U.S. port, to be paid up to five times per calendar year, per vessel pursuant to a formula relating to a vessels tonnage capacity. Another fee, under Annex II of the USTR’s notice of action, would be charged to operators of Chinese-built vessels, subject to certain targeted coverage exclusions. These fees became effective for vessels arriving at U.S. ports of entry on October 14, 2025.

Current report

On October 10, 2025, in response to the USTR action, China’s Ministry of Transport (the “Ministry”) announced retaliatory special port service fees applicable to vessels calling at Chinese ports which are built or flagged in the U.S. or owned or operated by certain U.S.-linked persons. These fees also became effective on October 14, 2025, although there was ambiguity surrounding the application and legal responsibility of the port fees.

Current report

On November 1, the U.S. announced that it had reached a trade agreement with China whereby both countries agreed in part to a one-year suspension of the implementation of these port fees beginning on November 10, 2025. As such, we do not expect us or our charterers to be materially impacted by such port fees at this time. However, trade relations between the two countries can be unpredictable and volatile, and other retaliatory actions by U.S., China or other countries could indirectly impact port-related costs, disrupt global shipping patterns and potentially cause delays in cargo movement, or increased congestion and costs at ports worldwide, including U.S. ports, further compounding disruptions within the global shipping industry. At this time we cannot predict what actions may be taken in the future or how such actions may ultimately impact our operations and financial results or our charterers.
