Dorian LPG: Dividend Increases Fueled By Record VLGC Rates, But Is It Enough? (Downgrade)

Summary Dorian LPG is downgraded to Hold despite strong recent returns and elevated VLGC rates. LPG benefits from tight vessel supply, robust US exports, and early newbuild delivery, supporting near-term earnings and dividend growth. I expect the board to raise the dividend to at least $1 per quarter if strong rates persist, but further upside needs sustained rate strength. Risks include prolonged Strait of Hormuz closure and a heavy 2026–2027 orderbook; fair value is set at $42.5 per share. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Dorian LPG Q3 Earnings, New Capacity In 2026, And Undervalued

Summary Dorian LPG Ltd. is investing in ECO VLGCs and scrubbers, enhancing emissions control and potentially attracting ESG-focused investors, boosting future stock demand. The company is set to receive a new VLGC in 2026, expected to increase capacity and drive revenue and free cash flow growth.

Valuation suggests a fair value of $26 per share, with potential buying opportunities if the dividend is cut and the stock price drops. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Dorian LPG: Massive Discount To NAV And Double-Digit Yield; Rating Upgrade

Summary The day rate weakness continues in the second quarter of the fiscal year. In 2Q25, Dorian reported $82.4 million in revenue, compared to $144.6 million in 2Q24. On November 5, Dorian declared $349 million in cash, $142 million in long-term leases, and $525 million in long-term debt. Dorian's fleet has higher daily OPEX and breakeven costs compared to peers, but scrubber savings and ammonia upgrades offer potential benefits. Dorian offers an attractive discount to NAV as a margin of safety. Additionally, the double-digit yield serves as the reasonable risk premium. I upgraded Dorian’s rating from Hold to Buy.
