About International Seaways

From its filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission

SEC filings

International Seaways is based in New York, New York and is incorporated in Marshall Islands. Its shares trade on NYSE under the ticker INSW. The SEC classifies its business as water transportation. In the fiscal year to 31 December 2025, it reported revenue of $843.3m and net income of $309.3m. At that date it held total assets of $2.67bn and shareholders' equity of $2.02bn.

In its own words

Our ultimate customers, including those of the commercial pools in which we participate, include major independent and state-owned oil companies, oil traders, refinery operators and international government entities. We generally charter our vessels to customers either for specific voyages at spot rates through the services of pools in which the Company participates, or for specific periods of time at fixed daily rates through time charters or bareboat charters. Spot market rates are highly volatile, while time charter and bareboat charter rates provide more predictable streams of TCE revenues because they are fixed for specific periods of time. For a more detailed discussion on factors influencing spot and time charter markets, see “— Fleet Operations — Commercial Management” below.

In addition, we continued to further enhance our strong balance sheet by increasing total liquidity to $723.6 million from $632.2 million at the end of 2024, and ended the year with 44% (i.e., 31 vessels) of our fleet unencumbered, a net loan to value ratio of 12.9%, and a net debt-to-capital ratio of 16.5%. We made approximately $426.1 million in capital investments for vessel and other property purchases, vessel improvements, vessel construction and drydocking. We also returned capital to our shareholders through cash dividends totaling $144.6 million.
