ATHENS, Greece , July 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Danaos Corporation (NYSE: DAC), one of the world's largest independent owners of containerships, announced today that it will release its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025, after the close of the market in New York on Monday, August 4, 2025. The Company's management team will host a conference call to discuss the results on Tuesday, August 5, 2025 at 9:00 A.M.
Danaos is well-positioned in a challenging shipping market due to its low leverage, strong balance sheet, and focus on sub-12,000 TEU vessels. Long-term charters and a diversified customer base insulate DAC from near-term market volatility and provide stable cash flows through at least 2027. Elevated scrapping activity, environmental regulations, and DAC's modern fleet should drive long-term competitive advantages as older ships exit the market.
Danaos boasts a $3.7 billion revenue backlog, providing nearly four years of cash flow visibility and strong charter coverage into 2026. Management has secured premium, long-term rates for all newbuild containerships, supporting predictable growth and high returns. Share repurchases have accelerated and the stock trades at a steep discount to book value, making the risk-reward highly attractive.
