NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States ("U.S.") generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying financial information reflects all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period results. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The significant estimates and assumptions of the Company are residual value of vessels, the useful lives of vessels, the percentage completion of spot voyages and estimated losses on our trade receivables. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications of Voyage revenue and Charter revenue have been made to prior periods to conform to current period presentation.

Leases

Time charter in contracts

The Company charters in vessels to supplement its owned fleet to support its voyage charter operations. The Company hires vessels under time charters with third party vessel owners, and recognizes the charter hire payments as an expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the charter. Charter hire payments are typically made in advance, and the unrecognized portion is reflected as advance hire in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Under the time charters, the vessel owner is responsible for the vessel operating costs such as crews, maintenance and repairs, insurance, and stores. As allowed by a practical expedient under ASC 842, Leases ("ASC 842"), the Company made an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset for leases with a term of 12 months or less, to forego recognizing a right-of-use asset and lease liability on its balance sheet. For the quarter ending September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Company did not have any time charter in contracts with terms greater than 12 months, as such charter hire expense presented on the consolidated statements of income are lease expenses for chartered in contracts less than 12 months.

Time charter out contracts

Charter revenue is earned when the Company lets a vessel it owns or operates to a charterer for a specified period of time. Charter revenue is based on the agreed rate per day. The charterer has the power to direct the use and receives substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the vessel. The Company determined that all time charter contracts are considered operating leases and therefore fall under the scope of ASC 842 because: (i) the vessel is an identifiable asset; (ii) the Company does not have substantive substitution rights; and (iii) the charterer has the right to control the use of the vessel during the term of the contract and derives the economic benefits from such use.

At September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Company had 84 vessels chartered to customers under time charters that contain leases. These 84 leases varied in original length from 1633 days to 92138 days. At September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, lease payments due under these arrangements totaled approximately $9,474,000$1,991,000 and each of the time charters were due to be completed in 5121 days or less.

At September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company had ninetwelve vessels chartered to customers under time charters that contain leases. These ninetwelve leases varied in original length from 2610 days to 60115 days. At September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, lease payments due under these arrangements totaled approximately $3,381,000$7,655,000 and each of the time charters were due to be completed in 5693 days or less. The Company does not have any sales-type or direct financing leases.

Revenue Recognition

In a voyage charter contract, the charterer hires the vessel to transport a specific agreed-upon cargo for a single voyage, which may contain multiple load ports and discharge ports. The consideration in such a contract is determined on the basis of a freight rate per metric ton of cargo carried or occasionally on a lump sum basis. The charter party generally has a minimum amount of cargo. The charterer is liable for any short loading of cargo or "dead" freight. The voyage contract generally has standard payment terms of 95% freight paid within three days after completion of loading. The voyage charter party generally has a "demurrage" or "despatch" clause. As per this clause, the charterer reimburses the Company for any delays that exceed the agreed to laytime at the ports visited, with the amounts recorded as demurrage revenue. Conversely, the charterer is given credit if the loading/discharging activities happen within the allowed laytime which is known as despatch and results in a reduction of revenue. In a voyage charter contract, the performance obligations begin to be satisfied once the vessel begins loading the cargo. The Company determined that its voyage charter contracts consist of a single performance obligation of transporting the cargo within a specified time period. Therefore, the performance obligation is met evenly as the voyage progresses, and the revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the voyage days from the commencement of the loading of cargo to completion of discharge.

The voyage contracts are considered service contracts which fall under the provisions of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers because the Company, as the shipowner, retains control over the operations of the vessel such as directing the routes taken or the vessel speed. The voyage contracts generally have variable consideration in the form of demurrage or despatch.

During time charter agreements, the Company is paid to provide transportation services on a per day basis for a specified period of time. Revenues from time charters are earned and recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the charter, the charterers have substantive decision-making rights to direct how and for what purpose the vessel is used. As such, the Company has identified that time charter agreements contain a lease in accordance with ASC 842. Revenue is not earned when vessels are offhire.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
    
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. Companies can apply the ASU immediately, however the guidance will only be available until December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adopting this new accounting standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. For most financial assets, such as trade and other receivables, loans and other instruments, this standard changes the current incurred loss model to a forward-looking expected credit loss model, which generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. The new standard is effective for the Company at the beginning of 2023. Entities are required to apply the provisions of the standard through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the effective date. The Company is currently assessing the new guidance and its impact on its consolidated financial statements, and it intends to adopt the guidance when it becomes effective in the first quarter of 2023.

Long-lived Assets Impairment Considerations

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its fixed assets and other assets in accordance with ASC 360-10-15, Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than their carrying amounts. If indicators of impairment are present, we perform an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows to be derived from the related long-lived assets. Our assessment is made at the asset group level, which represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of other groups of assets. The asset groups established by the Company are defined by vessel size and major characteristic or trade.

The Company concluded that no triggering event had occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 which would require impairment testing.

The Company concluded that no triggering event had occurred duringDuring the first and third quarter of 2020 which would require impairment testing. During the second quarter of 2020,2022, the Company determined that a triggering event occurred related to athe sale of a vessel, as the carrying value exceeded its fair value. On April 20, 2022, the Company signed a memorandum of agreement to sell the m/v Bulk Pangaea for a total net consideration of $8.6 million after brokerage commissions. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2022. The Company performed an impairment analysis on each asset group and concluded the estimated undiscounted future cash flows were higher than their carrying amount and as such, no additional loss on impairment was recognized.

The Company concluded that no triggering event had occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2021 which would require impairment testing.

NOTE 5 - DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Forward freight agreements

The Company assesses risk associated with fluctuating future freight rates and, when appropriate, hedges identified economic risk with appropriate derivative instruments, specifically forward freight agreements (FFAs). These economic hedges do not usually qualify for hedge accounting under ASC 815 and as such, the usage of such derivatives can lead to fluctuations in the Company’s reported results from operations on a period-to-period basis.

Fuel swap contracts

The Company continuously monitors the market volatility associated with bunker prices and seeks to reduce the risk of such volatility through a bunker hedging program. The Company enters into fuel swap contracts that are not designated for hedge accounting under ASC 815 and as such, the usage of such derivatives can lead to fluctuations in the Company’s reported results from operations on a period-to-period basis.

Interest rate cap

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps and interest rate caps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract. In January 2020, the Company entered into 4 interest rate cap contracts with total notional amount of $22.8 million at a cost of $628,000 to mitigate the risk associated with increases in interest rates on our sale and lease back financing arrangements of the 4 new-building vessels. In the event that the three-month LIBOR rate rises above the applicable strike rate of 3.25%, the Company would receive quarterly payments related to the spread difference. These interest rate cap agreements do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment.

The estimated fair values of the Company’s forward freight agreements and fuel swap contracts are based on market prices obtained from an independent third-party valuation specialist based on published indices. Such quotes represent the estimated amounts the Company would receive or pay to terminate the contracts. The interest rate caps contracts are valued using analysis obtained from independent third party valuation specialists based on market observable inputs, representing Level 2 assets.

The following table summarizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020:2021:

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto contained in this report.

Forward Looking Statements

All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Form 10-Q including, without limitation, statements under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” regarding our financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward looking statements. When used in this Form 10-Q, words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend” and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forward looking statements. Such forward looking statements are based on the beliefs of management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our management. Actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by the forward looking statements as a result of the risk factors and other factors detailed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All subsequent written or oral forward looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are qualified in their entirety by this paragraph.

Important Financial and Operational Terms and Concepts

The Company uses a variety of financial and operational terms and concepts when analyzing its performance.

These include revenue recognition, deferred revenue, allowance for doubtful accounts, vessels and depreciation and long-lived assets impairment considerations, as defined above as well as the following:

Voyage Revenue. Voyage revenue is derived from voyage charters which involve the carriage of cargo from a load port to a discharge port, which is predetermined in each voyage contract. Gross revenue is calculated by multiplying the agreed rate per ton of cargo by the number of tons loaded. The Company directs how and for what purpose the vessel is used and therefore, these voyage contracts do not contain leases.

Charter Revenue. Charter revenue is earned when the Company lets a vessel it owns or operates to a charterer for a specified period of time. Charter revenue is based on the agreed rate per day. These time-charter arrangements contain leases because the lessee has the power to direct the use and receives substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the vessel. The operating lease component and the vessel operating expense non-lease component of a time-charter contract are reported as a single component.

Voyage Expenses. The Company incurs expenses for voyage charters, including bunkers (fuel), port charges, canal tolls, brokerage commissions and cargo handling operations, which are expensed as incurred.

Charter Expenses. The Company charters in vessels to supplement its owned fleet to support its voyage charter operations. The Company hires vessels under time charters with third party vessel owners, and recognizes the charter hire payments as an expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the charter. Charter hire payments are typically made in advance, and the unrecognized portion is reflected as advance hire in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Under the time charters, the vessel owner is responsible for the vessel operating costs such as crews, maintenance and repairs, insurance, and stores. The Company does not record a right-of-use asset or lease liability for any arrangement less than one year.

2120



Vessel Operating Expenses. Vessel operating expenses represent the cost to operate the Company’s owned vessels. Vessel operating expenses include crew hire and related costs, the cost of insurance, expenses relating to repairs and maintenance, the cost of spares and consumable stores, tonnage taxes, other miscellaneous expenses, and technical management fees. These expenses are recognized as incurred. Technical management services include day-to-day vessel operations, performing general vessel maintenance, ensuring regulatory and classification society compliance, arranging the hire of crew, and purchasing stores, supplies, and spare parts.

Fleet Data. The Company believes that the measures for analyzing future trends in its results of operations consist of the following:

Shipping days. The Company defines shipping days as the aggregate number of days in a period during which its owned or chartered-in vessels are performing either a voyage charter (voyage days) or a time charter (time charter days).

Daily vessel operating expenses. The Company defines daily vessel operating expenses as vessel operating expenses divided by ownership days for the period. Vessel operating expenses include crew hire and related costs, the cost of insurance, expenses relating to repairs and maintenance, the costs of spares and consumable stores, tonnage taxes, other miscellaneous expenses, and technical management fees.

Chartered in days. The Company defines chartered in days as the aggregate number of days in a period during which it chartered in vessels from third party vessel owners.

Time Charter Equivalent ‘‘TCE’’ rates. The Company defines TCE rates as total revenues less voyage expenses divided by the length of the voyage, which is consistent with industry standards. TCE rate is a common shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare daily earnings generated by vessels on time charters with daily earnings generated by vessels on voyage charters, because rates for vessels on voyage charters are generally not expressed in per-day amounts while rates for vessels on time charters generally are expressed in per-day amounts.

Business Overview

The dry bulk sector of the transportation and logistics industry is cyclical and can be volatile due to changes in supply of vessels and demand for transportation of dry bulk commodities. After reaching levels not seen in over a decade in 2021, the dry bulk freight market remained strong in historical terms in the first quarter of 2022. The Baltic Dry Index (“BDI”), a measure of dry bulk market performance, averaged 4,1971,939 for the thirdfirst quarter of 2021,2022, up from an average of 1,5151,716 for the comparable quarter of 2020 and up approximately 40% from the second quarter of 2021. More specifically, and reflecting the composition of the Company's fleet, the average published market rates for Supramax and Panamax vessels increased approximately 211%39% from an average of $10,286$16,261 in the thirdfirst quarter of 20202021 to $32,033$22,637 in the same period of 2021.2022. We have historically experienced fluctuations in our results of operations on a quarterly and annual basis due to the volatility of the dry bulk sector. We expect to experience continued fluctuations in our operating results in the foreseeable future due to a variety of factors, including cargo demand for vessels, supply of vessels, competition, and seasonality.

Given the possibilities of wave surges of COVID-19 globally and the uncertainty where they may impact in the future, we have taken steps to manage operating costs, further enhance our financial flexibility, selectively deploy our capital, and protect the health and safety of our crew and shore based employees. Consistent with our chartering strategy we have redelivered chartered-in vessels when possible and continue to charter in new vessels, when needed, for short term periods dependent on market conditions at the time. We have implemented stricter protocols around crew changes, and required quarantine periods, and shore based employees in our Newport, Copenhagen, Singapore and Athens offices continue to comply with local and international guidelines.

Revenues

Pangaea’s revenues are derived predominately from voyage and time charters. Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 was $213.0$191.8 million, compared to $103.8$125.0 million for the same period in 2020,2021, a 105%53% increase. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher average TCE rates earned as discussed above. The total number of shipping days increased 12%2% to 5,3054,779 in the three months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared to 4,7344,668 for the same period in 2020.2021.
 
Components of revenue are as follows:

Voyage revenues increased by 90%62% for the three months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 to $186.4$176.3 million compared to $98.1$108.8 million for the same period in 2020.2021. The increase in voyage revenues was primarily due to higher average TCE rates earned.

Charter revenues increased to $26.7 million from $5.6 million, or 372%, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. The increase in charter revenues was due to an increase in drybulk market rates and an increase in time charter days, which were up 46% to 875 in the third quarter of 2021 from 601 in the third
2625



Charter revenues decreased to $15.4 million from $16.2 million, or 5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease in charter revenues was due to a decrease in time charter days which were down 42% to 603 in the first quarter of 2020.2022 from 1,040 for the same quarter in 2021 and offset by increased charter hire rates. The optionality of our chartering strategy allows the Company to selectively release excess ship days, if any, into the market under time charters arrangements.

Unrealized gain (loss) on derivative instruments

The Company assesses risk associated with fluctuating future freight rates and bunker prices, and when appropriate, actively hedges identified economic risk that may impact the operating income of long-term cargo contracts and forward bookings with forward freight agreements and bunkers swaps. The utilization of such derivatives can lead to fluctuations in the Company's reported results from operations on a period-to-period basis as the Company marks these positions to market at the balance sheet date while settlement of the position and execution of the physical transaction may occur at a future date. The Company recognized mark to market gains on bunker swaps of approximately $0.5$3.0 million and unrealized gains on forward freight agreements (FFAs) of approximately $4.9$2.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. The fair value lossgain on interest rate derivative was approximately $18,975$1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. These gains and losses resulted from changes in the fair value of the derivatives at the respective balance sheet dates.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020

Revenues

Pangaea’s revenues are derived predominately from voyage and time charters. Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $483.5 million, compared to $270.0 million for the same period in 2020, a 79% increase. The increase in revenues was primarily due to higher average TCE rates earned and an increase in the total number of shipping days of approximately 14% to 14,696 in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 12,910 for the same period in 2020.

Components of revenue are as follows:

Voyage revenues increased by 64% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to $412.0 million compared to $251.5 million for the same period in 2020. The increase in voyage revenues was primarily due to higher average TCE rates.

Charter revenues increased to $71.6 million from $18.5 million, or 286%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. The increase in charter revenues was due to an increase in drybulk market rates and an increase in time charter days, which were up 62% to 3,207 in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 from 1,977 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The optionality of our chartering strategy allows the Company to selectively release excess ship days, if any, into the market under time charters arrangements.

Voyage Expenses

Voyage expenses were $154.4 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $120.3 million for the same period in 2020, an increase of 28%.

Charter Hire Expenses

Charter hire expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were $220.0 million, compared to $82.5 million for the same period in 2020, a 167% increase.

The average published market rates for Supramax and Panamax vessels increased approximately 233% from an average of $7,251 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 to $24,160 in the same period of 2021. Additionally, the number of chartered-in days increased 20% from 8,148 days in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 to 9,741 days for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 due to the sale of owned vessels in 2020, and the Company's flexible charter-in strategy allowing it to supplement its owned fleet with short term chartered-in tonnage at prevailing market prices, when needed, to meet cargo demand.

Vessel Operating Expenses 

Vessel operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were $30.0 million, compared to $29.0 million for the same period in 2020, a increase of approximately 4%.

Significant accounting estimates

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The significant estimates and assumptions of the Company are the estimated fair value used in determining the estimated future cash flows used in its impairment analysis, the estimated salvage value used in determining depreciation expense, the estimated on the percentage completion of spot voyages and the allowances for doubtful accounts.

Long-lived Assets Impairment Considerations

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its fixed assets and other assets in accordance with ASC 360-10-15, Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than their carrying amounts. If indicators of impairment are present, we perform an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows to be derived from the related long-lived assets. Our assessment is made at the asset group level, which represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of other groups of assets. The asset groups established by the Company are defined by vessel size and major characteristic or trade.

The Company concluded that no triggering event had occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 which would require impairment testing.

The Company concluded that no triggering event had occurred duringDuring the first and third quarter of 2020 which would require impairment testing. During the second quarter of 2020,2022, the Company determined that a triggering event occurred related to athe sale of a vessel, as the carrying value exceeded its fair value. On April 20, 2022, the Company signed a memorandum of agreement to sell the m/v Bulk Pangaea for a total net consideration of $8.6 million after brokerage commissions. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2022. The Company performed an impairment analysis on each asset group and concluded the estimated undiscounted future cash flows were higher than their carrying amount and as such, no additional loss on impairment was recognized.

The Company concluded that no triggering event had occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2021 which would require impairment testing.
    
Liquidity and Capital Resources

As a result, the Company may not be ableunable to pursue opportunities to expand its business.

At September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, the Company had working capital of $63.3$92.4 million and $2.2$72.2 million, respectively. The significant increase in working capital is the result of refinancing of the Bulk Nordic Odin Ltd., Bulk Nordic Olympic Ltd., Bulk Nordic Oshima Ltd., and Bulk Nordic Oasis Ltd. Loan Agreements that were due and payable in October 2021.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 was $42.7$32.1 million compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $22.4$4.9 million for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. The cash flows from operating activities increased compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to the increase in income from operations partially offset byas well as the impact of changes in working capital.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 was $159.8$18.2 million compared to net cash used in investing activities of $6.0$5.5 million for the same period in 2020.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided byused in financing activities during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 was $117.9$0.1 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $21.4$5.9 million for the same period of 2020.2021. During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Company received $188.3$15.0 million in proceeds from long-term debt and finance leases and $6.9 million in proceeds from non-controlling interest recorded as long-term liability.leases. The Company repaid $58.6$3.4 million of long term debt $6.5and $3.8 million of finance leases and $2.5 million of other long term liabilities.leases. The Company also paid $4.0$2.3 million of cash dividends.

The Company has demonstrated its unique ability to adapt to changing market conditions by maintaining a nimble chartered-in profile to meet its cargo commitments. We believe, given our current cash holdings, if drybulk shipping rates do not decline significantly from current levels, our capital resources, including cash anticipated to be generated within the year, are sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next twelve months.

Capital Expenditures
 
The Company’s capital expenditures relate to the purchase of vessels and lease of interests in vessels, newbuild vessels, and to capital improvements to its vessels which are expected to enhance the revenue earning capabilities and safety of these vessels. The Company’s owned or partially owned and leasedcontrolled fleet includes threeat March 31, 2022 includes: ten Panamax drybulk carriers two Ultramax(six of which are Ice-Class 1C, one Ultramax,1A); eight Supramax drybulk carriers, and one barge. The Company has a two-third interest in a consolidated joint venture which owns six Panamax Ice-Class 1Athree Ultramax drybulk carriers (Two of which are Ice-Class IC), and has approximately 56% of Nordic Bulk Partners LLC. ("NBP") which owns a fleet of threefour Post Panamax Ice Class 1A drybulk vessels. NBP has commitments of approximately of $35 million related to future delivery of a newbuilding vessel, expected to be delivered in 4th quarter of 2021. The vessel is subject to finance leases.
 
In addition to vessel acquisitions that the Company may undertake in future periods, its other major capital expenditures include funding its program of regularly scheduled drydockings necessary to make improvements to its vessels, as well as to comply with international shipping standards and environmental laws and regulations. This includes installation of ballast water treatment systems required under new regulations, the cost of which will be approximately $0.5 million to $0.7 million per vessel. The Company has some flexibility regarding the timing of dry docking, but the total cost is unpredictable. Funding expenses associated with these requirements will be met with cash from operations. The Company anticipates that this process of recertification will require it to reposition these vessels from a discharge port to shipyard facilities, which will reduce the Company’s available days and operating days during that period. The Company capitalized drydocking costs totaling approximately $7,616,000$1.64 million and $3,113,000$1.11 million in the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, respectively.
