Costamare Bulkers Q2 Adjusted Net Income Hits $9.8M, Cash Exceeds Debt by $109M
CMDB has more than doubled off its 52-week low of $8.81.
Summary
Costamare Bulkers reported Q2 2026 adjusted net income of $9.8 million ($0.40/share), with GAAP net income of $5.2 million. The company ended the quarter with liquidity of $331.5 million and cash exceeding debt by $108.9 million, a net cash position that strengthens its ability to pursue countercyclical growth. The previously announced Cargill transaction is complete, removing legacy trading book risk, and the sale of the 2009-built Bermondi is expected to close in Q3. The operating platform now focuses on Kamsarmax-type vessels with 26 third-party owned ships, while the owned fleet stands at 30 vessels totaling 2.7 million DWT. CEO Gregory Zikos highlighted market volatility, particularly in Capesize rates, but noted robust current levels and supportive Panamax demand. This follows a strong Q1 and a $6.6 million insider buying spree by the Chairman in July, reinforcing management's confidence. The net cash position and fleet renewal progress position the company well for potential asset acquisitions in a downturn.
