[1] Average TCE earnings, gross is a non-U.S. GAAP measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel. Average TCE earnings, gross, when used by the Company, means time charter revenues and voyage charter revenues adding back address commissions, and divided by fleet operational days. Our management believes average TCE earnings, gross can provide additional meaningful information for investors to analyze our fleets’ daily income performance. Our calculation of such figure may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. Please see Appendix A for reconciliation of this measure to the nearest U.S. GAAP measure.
