Himalaya Shipping: I Missed The Boat - Upgrade To Buy

Summary I had previously called the company a sell; this was a mistake. While breakeven is higher than peers, the significant premium to the capesize index more than justifies this. Capital return policies are attractive and allow for shareholders to participate in the upside potential of the capesize sector. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Himalaya Shipping: Top-Spec Fleet And Macro Tailwinds At An Attractive Discount

Summary Himalaya’s fleet of 12 Newcastlemax dual-fuel ships with scrubbers ensures competitive performance, with index-linked charters outperforming market rates. For 3Q24, HSHP reported rising revenue, EBITDA, and EPS YoY and QoQ. A catalyst event on the horizon is the Simandou Project in Guinea. The first iron ore shipment is expected in 2025. HSHP stock is a buy at 36% discount to NAV. Market fundamentals, the Chinese fiscal measures, and the incoming new iron mines support my long thesis. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

With Newbuild Fleet, Himalaya Shipping Is Worth Keeping An Eye On

Summary Himalaya Shipping, a newcomer in the dry bulk sector, operates 12 new Newcastlemax vessels, focusing on dual fuel with liquid natural gas and pays variable monthly dividends. Himalaya Shipping's commitment to returning excess cash flow to shareholders and potential for increased dry bulk demand positions it as a promising investment for income-focused investors. Despite recent lows due to weak charter rates, Himalaya Shipping's price/book ratio of 1.32 is notably lower than the sector median of 2.91, indicating potential value. The company's profitability hinges on charter rates exceeding $16,000, with recent rates showing some recovery, and their new fleet minimizes the likely need for near-term capital expenditures.

Himalaya Shipping: Speculative Bet On Strong Capesize Market

Summary Himalaya Shipping delivered strong 2Q24 results with increased revenue, and operating income. HSHP's fleet, consisting of 12 Newcastlemax vessels with dual-fuel LNG propulsion, ensures higher TCE rates and compliance with environmental regulations. Despite a highly leveraged balance sheet, HSHP's valuation is attractive at 82% PNAV, making it a speculative yet promising investment in the dry bulk segment. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Himalaya Shipping: Potential In Ton-Mile Demand, But Overvalued And Overleveraged

Summary Himalaya Shipping has a young fleet with no upcoming financing needs. It is benefiting from a promising increase in ton-mile demand for iron ore and bauxite. The company is highly leveraged, its shares are low liquidity, and it possibly trades at a premium to NAV. Despite experienced management and potential growth in the market, there may be better alternatives for investors seeking exposure to Capesize/Newcastlemax segments.

Himalaya Shipping Is Still Not Our Choice

Summary Himalaya Shipping is a small and young company. To finance this venture, sale of vessels with leaseback is chosen. Compared to well-established peers with excellent balance sheets, HSHP needs to build equity before they should think about returning capital. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Himalaya Shipping: Newcastlemax-Only Play For Shipping Growth Investors

Summary Himalaya Shipping is a top pick for shipping growth stocks. The company owns a top-notch fleet of Newcastlemax bulk carriers built in 2023/2024 with dual-fuel LNG propulsion plants. The bulk carriers market is getting stronger, with increasing demand for Capesize/Newcastlemax vessels due to growing exports of iron ore and coal. HSHP has a leveraged balance sheet, which is expected given its new fleet. The company’s liquidity will improve with stronger day rates, mitigating the financial risk. HSHP offers 12 new vessels with dual-fuel LNG propulsion and 49% LTV at 80% PNAV. In my opinion, it's still a bargain. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha
