Prepayment of Debt and Sale of VLGC
Current report
On April 20, 2026, we prepaid $16.5 million of the 2023 A&R Debt Facility, a proportion related to the 2015-built VLGCCobra. On May, 6, 2026, we completed the sale of this vessel, receiving proceeds net of commission and fees of $81.9 million.
Current report
As of March 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024, independent appraisals of the commercially and technically managed vessels in our fleet resulted in indications of impairment on one vessel in our fleet and, in accordance with ASC 360Property, Plant, and Equipment an undiscounted cash flow test was performed on that vessel. We determined estimated net operating cash flows for this vessel by applying various assumptions regarding future time charter equivalent revenues net of commissions, operating expenses, scheduled drydockings, expected offhire and scrap values and concluded that no impairment charge was necessary because we believe the vessel carrying value is recoverable, and, as a result, no impairment charges were recognized for each years ended March 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024.
Current report
In addition, we performed a sensitivity analysis as of March 31, 2026 to determine the effect on recoverability of changes in daily TCE rates. The sensitivity analysis suggests that we would not incur an impairment charge on the vessel with an indicator of impairment if daily TCE rates based on the 10-year historical average spot market rates were reduced
Current report
by 20%. An impairment charge of approximately $10.5 million this vessel would be triggered by a reduction of 25% in the 10-year historical average spot market rates.

Executive Officer Compensation Matters
Previous report
On May 15, 2025, we announced that the Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of our Board of Directors elected to adopt certain performance measures under the Company’s incentive compensation plan going forward to structure pay practices for its named executive officers to more closely match the Company’s publicly traded peers and adopt best practices by using pre-established performance criteria and potential payouts.
Previous report
The overall result of these changes is an executive compensation program that clearly defines and discloses performance metrics, thereby enabling shareholders to more directly observe the alignment between executive pay and Company performance. While the Committee always considered a broad range of metrics in its deliberations to determine executive pay, the pre-established performance criteria provides a heightened level of transparency and underscores the Company’s commitment to best-in-class corporate governance.
Previous report
More specifically, the revised approach further promotes the Company’s long-term operating plan and business strategy, provides competitive compensation incentives, and mitigates the possibility of excessive risk-taking by discouraging disproportionate focus on any single performance measure. The formulas approved by the Committee are as follows:
Previous report
Additional information relating to compensation paid in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 or earned by each of the Company’s named executive officers in respect of the same period will be included in the Company’s Proxy Statement to be filed with the Commission with respect to the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
Previous report
As of March 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, independent appraisals of the commercially and technically managed VLGCs in our fleet had no indicators of impairment on any of our VLGCs in accordance with ASC 360Property, Plant, and Equipment. Accordingly, no undiscounted cash flow tests were required to be performed for any of our vessels, and, as a result, this is not considered a critical accounting estimate and no impairment charges were recognized for each years ended March 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Previous report
Interest and finance costs amounted to $35.8 million for the year ended March 31, 2025, a decrease of $4.7 million from $40.5 million for the year ended March 31, 2024. The decrease of $4.7 million during the year ended March 31, 2025

Time Charters. A time charter is a contract under which a vessel is chartered for a defined period of time at a fixed daily or monthly rate. Under time charters, we are responsible for providing crewing and other vessel operating services, the cost of which is intended to be covered by the fixed rate, while the customer is responsible for substantially all of the voyage expenses, including bunker fuel consumption, port expenses and canal tolls. LPG is frequently transported under a time charter arrangement, with terms ranging from one to seven years. In addition, we may also have profit-sharing arrangements with some of our customers that provide for additional payments above a floor monthly rate (usually up to an agreed ceiling) based on the actual, average daily rate quoted by the Baltic Exchange for VLGCs on one or more of the benchmark routes over an agreed time period converted to a time charter equivalent (“TCE”) monthly rate. For the years ended March 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, approximately 2.3%, 4.6% and 5.8%, respectively, of our revenue was generated pursuant to time charters from our VLGCs not in the Helios Pool.

Calendar Days. We define calendar days as the total number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet was owned or operated pursuant to a bareboat charter. Calendar days are an indicator of the size of the fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of expenses that are recorded during that period.

Available Days. We define available days as the sum of calendar days and time chartered-in days (including waiting time) collectively representing our commercially-managed vessels, less aggregate off hire days associated with both unscheduled and scheduled maintenance, which include major repairs, drydockings, vessel upgrades or special or intermediate surveys. We use available days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period that our vessels should be capable of generating revenues. Note that during the year ended March 31, 2025, we have updated our definition of available days to include unscheduled maintenance as we believe it is more reflective of industry practice and more consistent with the practice used in the Helios Pool, which now accounts for more than 95% of our revenue.

Drydocking. We must periodically drydock each of our vessels for any major repairs and maintenance and for inspection of the underwater parts of the vessel that cannot be performed while the vessels are operating and for any modifications to comply with industry certification or governmental requirements. The classification societies provide guidelines applicable to LPG vessels relating to extended intervals for drydocking. Generally, we are required to drydock a vessel under 15 years of age once every five years unless an extension of the drydocking to seven and one-half years is granted by the classification society and the vessel is not older than 20 years of age. We capitalize costs directly associated with the drydockings that extend the life of the vessel and amortize these costs on a straight-line basis over the period through the date the next survey is scheduled to become due under the "Deferral" method permitted under U.S. GAAP. Costs incurred during the drydocking period which relate to routine repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

Drydocking. We must periodically drydock each of our vessels in accordance with classification society requirements, and for any major modification, repairs and/or maintenance as well as governmental and maritime industry requirements which cannot be performed while the vessels are operating. Classification societies require every vessel to be drydocked every 60 months for inspection of the underwater parts. For vessels over 15 years of age, the drydock requirement is every 30 months.

Time Charter Equivalent Rate. TCE rate is a non-U.S. GAAP measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel. TCE rate is a shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period‑to‑period changes in a shipping company’s performance despite changes in the mix of charter types (such as time charters, voyage charters) under which the vessels may be employed between the periods and is a factor in management’s business decisions and is useful to investors in understanding our underlying performance and business trends. Our method of calculating TCE rate is to divide revenue net of voyage expenses by available days for the relevant time period, which may not be calculated the same by other companies. Note that we have updated the denominator of our calculation of TCE to be our updated definition of available days (see note 4 above) as we believe it is more reflective of industry practice and more consistent with the practice used in the Helios Pool, which now accounts for more than 95% of our revenue.

Voyage Expenses. Voyage expenses are all expenses unique to a particular voyage, including bunker fuel consumption, port expenses, canal fees, charter hire commissions, war risk insurance and security costs. Voyage expenses are typically paid by us under voyage charters and by the charterer under time charters, including our VLGCs chartered to the Helios Pool. Accordingly, we generally only incur voyage expenses for our own account when performing voyage charters or during repositioning voyages between time charters for which no cargo is available or travelling to or from drydocking. We generally bear all voyage expenses under voyage charters and, as such, voyage expenses are generally

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses principally consist of the costs incurred in the corporate administration of the vessel and non‑vessel owning subsidiaries. We have granted restricted stock awards to certain of our officers, directors and employees that vest over various periods (see Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements included herein). Granting of restricted stock results in an increase in expenses. Stock-based compensation expense for officers, directors and employees is measured at the grant date stock price (or, if a market condition is attached to the award, at the estimated fair value of the award on grant date) and is recognized over the vesting period.

Vessel Depreciation. The cost of our vessels less their estimated residual value is depreciated on a straight‑line basis over the vessels' estimated useful lives. We estimate the useful life of each of our vessels to be 25 years from the date the vessel was originally delivered from the shipyard. Based on the current market and the types of vessels we have in our fleet, the residual values of our vessels are based upon a value of approximately $400 per lightweight ton. An increase in the useful life of our vessels or in their residual value would have the effect of decreasing the annual depreciation charge and extending it into later periods. An increase in the useful life of a vessel may occur as a result of superior vessel maintenance performed, favorable ocean going and weather conditions the vessel is subjected to, superior quality of the shipbuilding or yard, or high freight market rates, which result in owners scrapping the vessels later due to the attractive cash flows. A decrease in the useful life of our vessels or in their residual value would have the effect of increasing the annual depreciation charge and possibly result in an impairment charge.

If regulations place limitations over the ability of a vessel to trade on a worldwide basis, we will adjust the vessel's useful life to end at the date such regulations preclude such vessel's further commercial use.

Revenues, which represent net pool revenues—related party, time charters and other revenues, net, were $353.3 million for the year ended March 31, 2025, a decrease of $207.4 million, or 37.0%, from $560.7 million for the year ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to reduced average TCE rates and available days. TCE rates declined by $22,351 per available day from $62,129 for the year ended March 31, 2024 to $39,778 for the year ended March 31, 2025. This reduction was primarily due tolower spot rates, partially offset by moderately lower bunker prices. The Baltic Exchange Liquid Petroleum Gas Index, an index published daily by the Baltic Exchange for the spot market rate for the benchmark Ras Tanura-Chiba route (expressed as U.S. dollars per metric ton), averaged $104.948 during the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to an average of $57.951 for the year ended March 31, 2025.
