Ardmore Shipping Corporation Announces Financial Results For The Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

HAMILTON, Bermuda, November 5, 2025 - Ardmore Shipping Corporation (NYSE: ASC) (“Ardmore”, the “Company” or “we”) today announced results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Highlights and Recent Activity

●

Reported Adjusted earnings of $12.6 million and net income attributable to common stockholders of $12.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, or $0.31 Adjusted earnings per basic and diluted share, compared to Adjusted earnings and net income attributable to common stockholders of $23.3 million, or $0.55 Adjusted earnings per basic and diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2024. (See reconciliation of net income to Adjusted earnings in the Non-GAAP Measures section.)

●

Reported Adjusted earnings of $27.2 million and net income attributable to common stockholders of $26.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, or $0.67 Adjusted earnings per basic and diluted share, compared to Adjusted earnings of $109.3 million and net income attributable to common stockholders of $123.5 million, or $2.62 Adjusted earnings per basic share and $2.60 Adjusted earnings per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. (See reconciliation of net income to Adjusted earnings in the Non-GAAP Measures section.) The major driver of the variance between Adjusted earnings and net income attributable to common stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was a $12.3 million gain from the sale of the Ardmore Seafarer in April 2024.

●

Consistent with the Company’s variable dividend policy of paying out dividends on its shares of common stock equal to one-third of Adjusted earnings, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend on November 5, 2025, of $0.10 per common share for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The dividend will be paid on December 12, 2025, to all shareholders of record on November 28, 2025.

●

MR tankers earned an average spot TCE rate of $24,697 per day for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Chemical tankers earned an average spot TCE rate of $22,611 per day for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Based on approximately 40% of total revenue days currently fixed for the fourth quarter of 2025, the average spot TCE rate is approximately $24,900 per day for MR tankers; based on approximately 35% of revenue days fixed for the fourth quarter of 2025, the average spot TCE rate for chemical tankers is approximately $22,200 per day.

●

On October 31, 2025, the Company fully redeemed all outstanding shares of its Series A Preferred Stock, for $30.6 million.

●

While primarily trading its fleet in the spot market, the Company recently committed one of its 2014-built MRs on a two-year time charter at $21,250 per day to a top-tier oil major.

●

Deliveries of the previously announced acquisitions of three modern, high-quality, Korean-built MR tankers, totaling $103.9 million, were completed during the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The acquisitions were financed by cash on hand and bank debt, maintaining a modest leverage level and lowering average fleet age.

Gernot Ruppelt, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, commented:

“Earnings have increased throughout the third quarter and into the fourth, driven by record volumes of refined product on the water. During the quarter, Ardmore took delivery of three modern MR tankers, opportunistically acquired at attractive prices. Now fully integrated into our fleet, these vessels are capturing strong spot markets, increase the company’s long-term earnings power and provide compelling fuel savings. In addition, we are further enhancing the value of our trading book through high-quality multi-year charter contracts with top-tier counterparties. In line with our transparent capital allocation policy, we have also fully redeemed our outstanding preferred shares while declaring our twelfth consecutive dividend.

Freight markets have remained strong, driven by long-term sectoral trends and healthy refining margins. Sanctions enforcement, continued trade shifts and dislocation due to geopolitical events are adding additional momentum, against the backdrop of an already tight global supply and demand balance. Ardmore continues to dynamically navigate these markets, guided by strong governance, enabled by its high performing operating platform and a robust balance sheet.”

Preferred Stock Redemption

On October 31, 2025, the Company fully redeemed all outstanding shares of its Series A Preferred Stock, for $30.6 million, which represents the stipulated redemption price of 102% of the liquidation preference per share.

Fleet

During the quarter ended September 30, 3025, the Company took delivery of the previously announced acquisitions of three modern, high-quality, Korean-built MR tankers, totaling $103.9 million. The vessel acquisitions were financed by cash on hand and bank debt, maintaining a modest leverage level and lowering average fleet age.

While primarily trading its fleet in the spot market, the Company recently committed one of its 2014-built MRs on a two-year time charter at $21,250 per day to a top-tier oil major.

Financing

In July 2025, the Company closed a $350 million revolving credit facility with top-tier banks, secured by 20 of its owned vessels. The facility is priced at SOFR plus a margin of 1.80% and matures in 2031. The bank group in the revolving credit facility is comprised of Nordea Bank, Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB (publ), ABN AMRO Bank, and Danske Bank A/S.

Dividend on Common Shares

Consistent with the Company’s variable dividend policy of paying out dividends on its shares of common stock equal to one-third of Adjusted earnings, as calculated for dividends (see Adjusted earnings (for purposes of dividend calculations) in the Non-GAAP Measures section), the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend on November 5, 2025 of $0.10 per common share for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The dividend will be paid on December 12, 2025, to all shareholders of record on November 28, 2025.

Geopolitical Conflicts

The ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict has disrupted energy supply chains, caused instability and significant volatility in the global economy and resulted in economic sanctions by several nations. This conflict has contributed to increases in spot tanker rates.

Geopolitical tensions have increased since commencement of the Israel-Hamas conflict in October 2023. Since mid-December 2023, Houthi rebels in Yemen have carried out numerous attacks on vessels in the Red Sea area. As a result of these attacks, many shipping companies have routed their vessels away from the Red Sea, which has affected trading patterns, rates, and expenses. Continuing instability or any further escalation or expansion of hostilities in the Middle East or elsewhere could continue to affect the price of crude oil and the oil industry, the tanker industry and demand for the Company’s services.

Geopolitical and Economic Uncertainty

In recent months, governments have taken actions to implement new or increased tariffs on foreign imports and port fees. These activities have resulted in tariffs being levied on various goods and commodities, which may trigger an escalation of trade wars. These actions have been disruptive to global markets, resulting in significant volatility in stock and commodity prices and an increase in general global economic uncertainty, including the risk of economic recessions. As a result of this rapidly changing and unpredictable geopolitical climate, the shipping industry is experiencing uncertainty as to future vessel demand, trade routes, rates and operating costs.

Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2025 and 2024

The Company reported net income attributable to common stockholders of $12.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, or $0.30 earnings per basic and diluted share, as compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $23.3 million, or $0.55 earnings per basic and diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and 2024

The Company reported net income attributable to common stockholders of $26.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, or $0.66 earnings per basic and diluted share, as compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $123.5 million, or $2.96 earnings per basic share and $2.93 earnings per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2025 and 2024

Revenue. Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $81.2 million, a decrease of $14.9 million from $96.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

The Company’s average number of operating vessels was 26.8 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, a slight increase from 26.0 for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

The Company had 1,938 spot revenue days for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to 2,279 for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The Company had 22 vessels employed directly in the spot market as of September 30, 2025, as compared to 25 vessels as of September 30, 2024. The decrease in spot revenue days resulted in a decrease in revenue of $14.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. Decreases in spot rates during the three months ended September 30, 2025 resulted in a decrease in revenue of $5.6 million.

The Company had four product tankers and one chemical tanker employed under time charters as of September 30, 2025, as compared to one product tanker as of September 30, 2024. There were 378 revenue days derived from time charters for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to 92 revenue days for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in revenue days for time-chartered vessels resulted in an increase in revenue of $4.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Voyage Expenses. Voyage expenses were $28.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, a decrease of $6.1 million from $34.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily due to a reduction in bunker costs.

TCE Rate. The average TCE rate for the Company’s fleet was $23,475 per day for the three months ended September 30, 2025, a decrease of $3,153 per day from $26,628 per day for the three months ended September 30, 2024. TCE rates represent net revenues (a non-GAAP measure representing revenue less voyage expenses) divided by revenue days. Net revenue utilized to calculate TCE is determined on a discharge-to-discharge basis, which is different from how the Company records revenue under U.S. GAAP.

Vessel Operating Expenses. Vessel operating expenses were $16.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, an increase of $2.5 million from $14.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase reflects the timing of vessel operating expenses between quarters and is also partly attributable to the addition of three vessels to the Company’s fleet during the three months ended September 30, 2025. Vessel operating expenses, by their nature, can be prone to fluctuations between periods.

Charter Hire Costs. Total charter hire expense was $4.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, a decrease of $1.3 million from $5.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. This decrease is a result of two chartered-in vessels redelivered at the end of their charter periods during the three months ended September 30, 2025. Total charter hire expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was comprised of an operating expense component of $2.4 million and a vessel lease expense component of $2.2 million (September 30, 2024: $3.1 million and $2.8 million, respectively).

Depreciation. Depreciation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $8.8 million, an increase of $1.0 million from $7.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. This increase is primarily attributable to the addition of three vessels to the Company’s fleet during the third quarter of 2025.

Amortization of Deferred Drydock Expenditures. Amortization of deferred drydock expenditures for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $1.6 million, an increase of $0.6 million from $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 due to increased drydocking activity compared to the previous period. Deferred drydocking costs for a given vessel are amortized on a straight-line basis to the next scheduled drydocking of the vessel.

General and Administrative Expenses: Corporate. Corporate-related general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025 were $5.3 million, a decrease of $1.0 million from $6.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease primarily reflects one-time expenses related to the Company’s leadership transition during the three months ended September 30, 2024.

General and Administrative Expenses: Commercial and Chartering. Commercial and chartering expenses are the expenses attributable to Ardmore’s chartering and commercial operations departments in connection with its spot trading activities. Commercial and chartering expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025 were $1.1 million, generally consistent with $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Interest Expense and Finance Costs. Interest expense and finance costs for the three months ended September 30, 2025 were $1.7 million, an increase of $0.6 million from $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was due to drawdowns made on the Company’s revolving credit facilities to finance the purchase of three MR tankers during the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Amortization of deferred finance fees for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $0.2 million, consistent with $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt. The Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2025. Loss on extinguishment of debt relates to the partial write-off of deferred finance fees associated with the Company’s previous revolving credit facility. The Company recorded no gain or loss on extinguishment of debt during the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Liquidity

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $296.0 million in liquidity available, with cash and cash equivalents of $47.1 million (December 31, 2024: $47.0 million) and amounts available and undrawn under its revolving credit facilities of $248.9 million (December 31, 2024: $196.4 million).

(1)	Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR are non-GAAP measures and are defined and reconciled to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure under the section of this release entitled “Non-GAAP Measures.”

(2)

Time Charter Equivalent (“TCE”) rate, a non-GAAP measure, represents net revenues (a non-GAAP measure representing revenues less voyage expenses) divided by revenue days. Revenue days are the total number of calendar days the vessels are in the Company’s possession less off-hire days generally associated with drydocking or repairs and idle days associated with repositioning of vessels held for sale. Net revenue utilized to calculate the TCE rate is determined on a discharge to discharge basis, which is different from how the Company records revenue under U.S. GAAP. Under discharge to discharge, revenues are recognized beginning from the discharge of cargo from the prior voyage to the anticipated discharge of cargo in the current voyage, and voyage expenses are recognized as incurred.

(3)

Fleet operating expenses per day are routine operating expenses and comprise crewing, repairs and maintenance, insurance, stores, lube oils and communication expenses. These amounts do not include expenditures related to vessel upgrades and enhancements or other non-routine expenditures, which were expensed during the period.

(4)	Technical management fees are fees paid to Anglo Ardmore Ship Management Limited, a joint venture entity that is 50% owned by us.

(5)	Vessel operating expenses per day include technical management fees.

(6)

As a result of selling the Ardmore Seafarer in April 2024, the Company no longer owns MR Eco-Mod tankers; as a result, the Company had no vessel operating expenses for the third quarter of 2025 with respect to owned MR Eco-Mod tankers. The MR Eco-Mod TCE per day for the third quarter of 2025 is derived from the Company’s two time-chartered-in vessels.

CO₂ Emissions Reporting⁽¹⁾

In April 2018, the International Maritime Organization’s (“IMO”) Marine Environment Protection Committee (“MEPC”) adopted an initial strategy for the reduction of greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions from ships, setting out a vision to reduce GHG emissions from international shipping and phase them out as soon as possible. Ardmore is committed to transparency and contributing to the reduction of CO₂ emissions in the Company’s industry. Ardmore’s reporting methodology is in line with the framework set out within the IMO’s Data Collection System (“DCS”) initiated in 2019.

On January 1, 2023, the BIMCO CII Operations Clause for Time Charter Parties came into force. This clause outlines that the charterer should take responsibility for a ship’s emissions. On this basis, Ardmore’s GHG emissions analysis has been updated to exclude the impact of ships time-chartered out and to include the impact of ships time-chartered in. Previously all vessels were included in Ardmore’s analysis from the fleet except for vessels commercially managed by Ardmore.

Ardmore Performance

It should be noted that results vary quarter to quarter depending on ship activity, ballast / laden ratio, cargo carried, weather, waiting time, time in port, and vessel speed. However, analysis is also presented on a trailing 12-month basis to provide a more accurate assessment of Ardmore's progress over a longer period and to mitigate seasonality. From a weather perspective rougher weather (based on Beaufort Scale wind force rating being greater than 4 BF) will generally have a mitigating impact on the ability to optimize fuel consumption, while idle time will impact ships metrics as they will still require power to run but will not be moving. Overall Ardmore Shipping’s carbon emissions for the trailing 12-month period decreased by 10.0% from 421,812 metric tons to 379,632 metric tons of CO2, primarily due to a decrease in distance travelled, as a result of a significantly higher number of drydocking days. Fleet EEOI for the trailing 12-month period decreased to 12.34 g / ctm from 12.44 g / ctm, primarily due to the decrease in ton-miles, while AER for the same period decreased to 6.09 g / tm from 6.17 g / tm primarily due to the decrease in distance travelled. Ardmore seeks to achieve continued improvements through a combination of technological advancements and operational optimization.

¹ Ardmore's emissions data is based on the reporting tools and information reasonably available to Ardmore and its applicable third-party technical managers for Ardmore’s owned fleet. Management assesses such data and may adjust and restate the data to reflect latest information. It is expected that the shipping industry will continue to refine the performance measures for emissions and efficiency over time.

AER and EEOI metrics are impacted by external factors such as charter speed, vessel orders and weather, in conjunction with overall market factors such as cargo load sizes and fleet utilization rate. As such, variance in performance can be found in the reported emissions between two periods for the same vessel and between vessels of a similar size and type. Furthermore, other companies may report slight variations (e.g. some shipping companies report CO₂ in tons per kilometer as opposed to CO₂ in tons per nautical mile) and consequently it is not always practical to directly compare emissions from different companies. The figures reported above represent Ardmore’s initial findings; the Company is committed to improving the methodology and transparency of its emissions reporting in line with industry best practices. Accordingly, the above results may vary as the methodology and performance measures set out by the industry evolve.

² Includes time-chartered out and time-chartered in vessels.

³ Annual Efﬁciency Ratio (“AER”) is a measure of carbon efficiency using the parameters of fuel consumption, distance travelled, and design deadweight tonnage (“DWT”). AER is reported in unit grams of CO₂ per ton-mile (gCO₂/dwt-nm). It is calculated by dividing (i) mass of fuel consumed by type converted to metric tons of CO₂ by (ii) DWT multiplied by distance travelled in nautical miles. A lower AER reflects better carbon efficiency.

⁴ The AER and EEOI figures are presented including the impact of cargo heating and tank cleaning operations unless stated.

⁵ Energy Efficiency Operational Indicator (“EEOI”) is a tool for measuring CO₂ gas emissions in a given time period per unit of transport work performed. It is calculated by dividing (i) mass of fuel consumed by type converted to metric tons of CO₂ by (ii) cargo carried in tons multiplied by laden voyage distance in nautical miles. This calculation is performed as per IMO MEPC.1/Circ684. A lower EEOI reflects lower CO2 gas emissions in a given time period per unit of transport work performed.

⁶Idle time is the amount of time a vessel is waiting in port or awaiting the laycan or waiting in port/at sea unfixed.

Non-GAAP Measures

EBITDA + vessel lease expense component (i.e., EBITDAR) and Adjusted EBITDAR

EBITDAR is defined as EBITDA (i.e., earnings before interest, unrealized gains/(losses) on interest rate derivatives, taxes, depreciation and amortization) plus the vessel lease expense component of total charter hire expense for chartered-in vessels. Adjusted EBITDAR is defined as EBITDAR before certain items that Ardmore believes are not representative of its operating performance, including gain or loss on sale of vessels.

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized total charter hire expense of $4.6 million in respect of time charter-in vessels under operating leases. The total expense includes (i) $2.2 million in respect of the right to use the leased assets (i.e., vessel lease expense component), and (ii) $2.4 million in respect of the costs of operating the vessels (i.e. operating expense component). Under U.S. GAAP, the expense related to the right to use the leased assets (i.e. capital component) is treated as an operating item on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations, and is not added back in its calculation of EBITDA. The treatment of operating lease expenses differs under U.S. GAAP as compared to international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”). Under IFRS, the expense of an operating lease is presented in depreciation and interest expense.

Many companies in Ardmore’s industry report under IFRS; the Company therefore uses EBITDAR and Adjusted EBITDAR as tools to compare its valuation with the valuation of these other companies in its industry. The Company does not use EBITDAR and Adjusted EBITDAR as measures of performance or liquidity. The Company presents below reconciliations of net income / (loss) attributable to common stockholders to EBITDAR (which includes an adjustment for vessel lease operating expenses) and Adjusted EBITDAR.

EBITDAR and Adjusted EBITDAR, as presented, may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. In addition, EBITDAR and Adjusted EBITDAR should not be viewed as measures of overall performance since they exclude vessel rent, which is a normal, recurring cash operating expense related to the Company’s in-chartering of vessels that is necessary to operate its business. Accordingly, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this information.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted Earnings (for purposes of dividend calculations)

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted earnings are not measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and are defined and reconciled below. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before certain items that Ardmore believes are not representative of its operating performance, including gain or loss on sale of vessels, gain on extinguishment, unrealized gains/(losses) on derivatives and profit/(loss) on equity method investments. Adjusted earnings excludes certain items from net income attributable to common stockholders, including gain or loss on sale of vessels and write-off of deferred finance fees (i.e., loss on extinguishment) because they are considered to not be representative of the Company’s operating performance.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted earnings are presented in this press release as the Company believes that they provide investors with a means of evaluating and understanding how Ardmore’s management evaluates operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA increase the comparability of the Company’s fundamental performance from period to period. This increased comparability is achieved by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods of interest expense, taxes, depreciation or amortization, which items are affected by various and possibly changing financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis and which items may significantly affect net income between periods. The Company believes that including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted earnings as financial and operating measures assists investors in making investment decisions regarding the Company and its common stock.

For purposes solely of the quarterly common dividend calculation, Adjusted earnings represents the Company’s Adjusted earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, but excluding the impact of unrealized gains / (losses) and certain non-recurring items.

These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not have a standardized meaning and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
