The company faces risks related to suppliers, sourcing, and raw materials due to trade protectionism and tariffs that affect shipping demand. Increased trade barriers, tariffs, and trade tensions, particularly between the United States and China, may adversely impact operations. The Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) has imposed service fees on Chinese vessel operators and owners, while China has implemented retaliatory fees on U.S. vessels; both sets of fees are suspended through November 10, 2025. Additionally, China's economic policies aimed at boosting domestic consumption of Chinese-made goods could reduce exports and shipping demand. Uncertainty surrounding trade policies, tariffs, and regulations may materially affect the cost, timing, and risks associated with exporting goods, thereby influencing shipping operations and results.
