Danaos Corp (NYSE:DAC), a leading independent owner of container and drybulk vessels, reported its second-quarter earnings for 2025, revealing mixed results compared to analyst expectations. The market reaction has been subdued, with shares dipping slightly in after-hours trading.
The revenue miss suggests weaker-than-anticipated charter rates or utilization, while the lower EPS indicates either higher operating costs or reduced profitability per vessel. Given the company’s reliance on time charters, fluctuations in container shipping demand or renegotiated contracts may have played a role.
Following the earnings release, Danaos’ stock declined -0.62% in after-market trading. While the drop isn’t severe, it reflects investor disappointment given the earnings and revenue shortfall. Over the past month, shares have been relatively flat (+3.4%), indicating muted sentiment even before the earnings announcement.
Analysts project full-year 2025 revenue at $1.006 billion and EPS at $27.05, while Q3 estimates stand at $259.9 million in revenue and $7.27 EPS. The company did not provide explicit guidance in its press release, leaving investors to rely on these external forecasts.
