Pangaea Logistics posts record Q3 2026 adjusted EBITDA and declares dividend

Pangaea Logistics Solutions reported third‑quarter 2026 results on November 5. Adjusted net income was $33.6 million ($0.52 per share) and adjusted EBITDA rose 81.3% to $52.4 million. Time‑charter equivalent rates averaged $20,414 per day, up 31% year‑over‑year, and the board declared a cash dividend of $0.10 per share. The company also refinanced $134‑$145 million of debt at a lower margin, reducing net‑debt leverage to 1.4 times adjusted EBITDA.

The dividend provides immediate cash return to shareholders, while the debt refinancing lowers borrowing costs and improves balance‑sheet flexibility for fleet renewal. Higher TCE rates and EBITDA growth signal stronger profitability that may support future capital‑allocation decisions.
