Reports Q4 revenue $266.27M vs. $258.17M last year. CEO John Coustas commented: "In this quarter it became evident that the business community continues to adapt quickly to geopolitical disruptions. Despite concerns that tariff and geopolitical uncertainty would cause a U.S. slowdown, it has not materialized. At the same time, the hype around AI-related investments has increased optimism, China's exports continue to set new records and consequently container volumes have reached record highs. With the Suez Canal still largely avoided by major liners, and trade patterns increasingly transforming to multipolar, demand for midsize vessels has remained very strong.Against this background we continued our strategy of securing long term employment for our existing vessels through forward fixtures by either extending existing charters or by new charters even for late 2027 dates. We also continued to invest in modern container vessels...the company's total contracted revenue increased to $4.3B as of the end of the quarter, giving us great earnings visibility into the future from which we derive comfort on our ability to manage any eventual future market developments...our liquidity at year-end reached $1.4B. Backed by a strong financial profile, we have begun exploring selective investments in the energy sector to broaden revenue sources and expand in the LNG business...The company remains focused on positioning itself at the forefront of shipping and energy growth areas for the benefit of our shareholders".

Glenfarne Group, LLC subsidiary Glenfarne Alaska LNG, LLC, majority owner and developer of the Alaska LNG Project, and Danaos Corporation announced a strategic partnership to advance Alaska LNG. Under the agreement, Danaos will facilitate the construction and operation of at least six LNG carriers to deliver LNG to global customers and make a $50M development capital investment to support the project. "Danaos, with their reputation for high-quality ship ownership and operations, is a valued addition to our roster of Alaska LNG strategic partners," said Brendan Duval, chief executive officer and founder of Glenfarne. "One of Alaska LNG's major competitive advantages is our short shipping distance to Asia, featuring canal-free routes avoiding contested waters. The addition of reliable shipping solutions meaningfully advances the development of Alaska LNG. Dr. John Coustas and his management team have been a pleasure to work with."
