• Reports Substantial 2025 Net Loss

  OceanPal Inc. reported a net loss of $65.2 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to non-cash unrealized losses on digital assets and one-time transaction costs.

• Highlights Strong Balance Sheet & Digital Assets

  The company's balance sheet shows $33.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, $77.5 million in NEAR Protocol digital assets, and total stockholders' equity of $156.6 million, which management believes is materially disconnected from its market capitalization.

• Provides Positive 2026 EBITDA Guidance

  OceanPal projects positive EBITDA for both its shipping segment ($1.5M-$2.5M) and its SovereignAI digital asset segment ($0.5M-$14.0M, depending on NEAR price) for fiscal year 2026.

OceanPal Inc. reported a substantial net loss of $65.2 million for the fiscal year 2025, primarily attributed to non-cash unrealized fair value adjustments on digital asset holdings and one-time transaction costs. Despite the loss, the company highlighted a significantly strengthened balance sheet with $33.2 million in cash and $77.5 million in NEAR Protocol digital assets, resulting in total stockholders' equity of $156.6 million, which management explicitly notes as a material disconnect from its current market capitalization. The company also provided positive 2026 EBITDA guidance for both its shipping and SovereignAI segments. Concurrently, OceanPal disclosed it sold $2.16 million worth of shares under an At-The-Market (ATM) program subsequent to year-end, with $17.9 million remaining, indicating substantial potential dilution. This dilutive action is partially offset by a simultaneous share buyback program, under which $0.8 million in shares have been repurchased, with $9.2 million still available. These capital actions and financial results are highly material as the company navigates a strategic transformation into a digital asset treasury operator while addressing Nasdaq compliance issues, including a recently announced 1-for-20 reverse stock split.
