Significant Accounting Policies
|
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for the six months period ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on Form 20-F.
A summary of the Company's significant accounting policies is identified in Note 2 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. There have been no changes to the Company's significant accounting policies.

Recent accounting pronouncements
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS ("ASU 2011-04"). ASU 2011-04 amends ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements ("ASC 820"), providing a consistent definition and measurement of fair value, as well as similar disclosure requirements between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 changes certain fair value measurement principles, clarifies the application of existing fair value measurement and expands the ASC 820 disclosure requirements, particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, but may require certain additional disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2011-04 are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2011-05"). ASU 2011-05 requires the presentation of comprehensive income in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. Early adoption of ASU 2011-05 is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, but may require a change in the presentation of the Company's comprehensive income, if any. For public entities, the amendments are effective as of the beginning of a fiscal reporting year, and interim periods within that year, that begins after December 15, 2011.

Fair Value of Above or Below Market Time Charters Acquired
|
M/V "Maersk Noumea" was acquired on May 22, 2008 with an outstanding time charter terminating on August 2011 with a charter rate of $16,800 per day plus three one-year consecutive optional extensions at $18,735, $19,240 and $19,750 per day, respectively. This charter rate was below the market rates for equivalent time charters prevailing at the time. The present value of the below-market charter plus the optional periods was estimated by the Company at $9,597,438 and was recorded as a liability in the "Unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets." For the six months ended on June 30, 2010, voyage revenue included $1,053,208, and, for the six months ended June 30, 2011 $1,318,211 as amortization of the below-market rate charter for the M/V "Maersk Noumea." The latter amount was the unamortized amount as of December 31, 2010 and is recorded as a liability in the "Unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets." There is no remaining unamortized below market rate charter as of June 30, 2011.

Related Party Transactions
|
The Company's vessel owning companies are parties to management agreements with the Management Company, which is controlled by members of the Pittas family, whereby the Management Company provides technical and commercial vessel management for a fixed daily fee of Euro 665 for 2010 and Euro 700 for 2011 under the Company's Master Management Agreement (see below). Vessel management fees paid to the Management Company amounted to $2,275,545 and $2,910,624 in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2011, respectively.
In addition to the vessel management services, Eurobulk provides the Company with management services for the Company's needs as a public company. For the six months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2011, compensation for such services to the Company as a public company was $582,500 and $612,500, respectively.
Amounts due to or from related companies represent net disbursements and collections made on behalf of the vessel-owning companies by the Management Company during the normal course of operations for which a right of offset exists. As of December 31, 2010 the amount due to related companies was $1,594,773. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the amount due from related companies was $1,271,724.

The Company uses brokers for various services, as is industry practice. Eurochart S.A., an affiliated company controlled by certain members of the Pittas family, provides vessel sale and purchase services, and chartering services to the Company whereby the Company pays a commission of 1% of the vessel sales price and 1.25% of charter revenues. There were no sales of vessels during the six month period ending June 30, 2010 and 2011 for the Company. Eurochart S.A. received a 1% commission for the acquisition of the M/V "Aggeliki P."

For the first six months ended June 30, 2011 the shareholders' percentage participation in the Sentinel and Technomar joint ventures was 86.8% and 44.3%, respectively. Sentinel is paid a commission on premium not exceeding 5%; Technomar is paid a fee of about $50 per crew member per month.

The loan agreements contain covenants such as minimum requirements regarding the hull ratio cover (the ratio of fair value of vessel to outstanding loan less cash in retention accounts), restrictions as to changes in management and ownership of the vessel shipowning companies, distribution of profits or assets (i.e. limiting dividends in some loans to 60% of profits, or not permitting dividend payments or other distributions in cases where an event of default has occurred), additional indebtedness and mortgage of vessels without the lender's prior consent, sale of vessels, maximum fleet-wide leverage, sale of capital stock of our subsidiaries, ability to make investments and other capital expenditures, entering in mergers or acquisitions, minimum cash balance requirements and minimum cash retention accounts (restricted cash). The loans agreements also require the Company to make deposits in retention accounts with certain banks that can only be used to pay the current loan installments. Minimum cash balance requirements are in addition to cash held in retention accounts. These cash deposits amounted to $5,776,714 and 5,917,118 as of December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2011, respectively, and are shown as "Restricted cash" under "Current assets" and "Long-term assets" in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company is currently satisfying all the debt covenants.
Interest expense for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2011 amounted to $673,803 and $1,052,243, respectively. At June 30, 2011, LIBOR for the Company's loans was on average approximately 0.23% per year and the average interest rate margin over LIBOR on our debt was approximately 2.17% per year for a total average interest rate of approximately 2.40% per year.

Commitments and Contingencies
|
(a)
|
There are no material legal proceedings to which the Company is a party or to which any of its properties are subject, other than routine litigation incidental to the Company's business. In the opinion of the management, the disposition of these lawsuits should not have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows.
|
(b)
|
Future minimum long-term time charter revenue net of commissions, based on non-cancelable time charter contracts as of June 30, 2011 will be $19.8 million and $13.9 million for the twelve month periods ended on June 30, 2012 and 2013, respectively, assuming the scheduled drydockings and special surveys (20-25 days every two and a half years) and one additional off-hire day per quarter to account for any unscheduled off-hire time.

On October 25, 2007, the Board of Directors approved the Company's 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2007 Plan") and on February 4, 2010, the Company's 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2010 Plan"). Both plans are administered by the Board of Directors which can make awards totaling in aggregate up to 600,000 and 1,500,000 shares, respectively, over 10 years after each plan's adoption date. The persons eligible to receive awards under the Plan are officers, directors, and executive, managerial, administrative and professional employees of the Company or the Management Company or Eurochart S.A., (collectively, "key persons") as the Board, in its sole discretion, shall select based upon such factors as the Board shall deem relevant. Awards may be made under the 2007 Plan and 2010 Plan in the form of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalent rights, restricted stock, unrestricted stock, restricted stock units and performance shares.
All unvested restricted shares are conditional upon the grantee's continued service as an employee of the Company, the Management Company or as a director until the applicable vesting date. The grantee does not have the right to vote such unvested restricted shares until they vest or exercise any right as a shareholder of these shares, however, the unvested shares will accrue dividends as declared and paid which will be retained by the Company until the shares vest at which time they are payable to the grantee. As of December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2011, the unvested restricted shares accrued dividends of $32,175 and $64,350, respectively. As unvested restricted share grantees accrue dividends on awards that are expected to vest, such dividends are charged to retained earnings.
The Company estimates the forfeitures of unvested restricted shares to be immaterial. The Company will, however, re-evaluate the reasonableness of its assumption at each reporting period.
The compensation cost that has been charged against income for those plans was $335,768 and $359,080 for the six month periods ending June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2011, respectively. The Company has used the straight-line method to recognize the cost of the awards.
A summary of the status of the Company's unvested shares as of January 1, 2011, and changes during the six month period ended June 30, 2011, are presented below:

As of June 30, 2011, there was $489,939 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plan based on the closing stock price of $4.35 on June 30, 2011 used for the valuation of the shares awarded to non-employees. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.82 year. The total fair value of shares vested during the six-month period ended June 30, 2011 was zero and the recognized portion of the unvested shares was $359,080.

10. Financial Instruments
The principal financial assets of the Company consist of cash on hand and at banks, trading securities, interest rate swaps, Forward freight agreement ("FFA") contracts and accounts receivable due from charterers. The principal financial liabilities of the Company consist of long-term loans, FFA contracts and accounts payable due to suppliers.
Interest rate risk
The Company enters into interest rate swap contracts as economic hedges to manage its exposure to variability in its floating rate long term debt. Under the terms of the interest rate swaps the Company and the bank agreed to exchange, at specified intervals the difference between a paying fixed rate and floating rate interest amount calculated by reference to the agreed principal amounts and maturities. Interest rate swaps allow the Company to convert long-term borrowings issued at floating rates into equivalent fixed rates. Even though the interest rate swaps were entered into for economic hedging purposes, the derivatives described below in this Note do not qualify for accounting purposes as fair value hedges, under guidance relating to "Accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities", as the Company does not have currently written contemporaneous documentation identifying the risk being hedged and, both on a prospective and retrospective basis, performing an effectiveness test to support that the hedging relationship is highly effective. Consequently, the Company recognizes the change in fair value of these derivatives in the "Unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations." As of December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2011, the Company had two and three open swap contracts, respectively.
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company places its temporary cash investments, consisting mostly of deposits, with high credit qualified financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluation of the relative credit standing of these financial institutions that are considered in the Company's investment strategy. The Company limits its credit risk with accounts receivable by performing ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and generally does not require collateral for its accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2011, the amounts in trade accounts receivable from each customer accounting for more than 10% of 2010 hire revenues are not significant.

10. Financial Instruments - continued
Forward freight agreements ("FFA")
The Company trades in the FFA market with an objective to utilize the FFAs as economic hedging instruments that are effective at reducing the market risk of specific drybulk vessels. The Company does not trade FFAs speculatively. FFA trading generally has not qualified as hedge accounting and as such the trading of FFAs could lead to material fluctuations in the Company's reported results from operations on a period to period basis. As of January 1, 2010, the Company had eleven open FFAs amounting to 905 days vessel-days in 2010 on the Baltic Panamax Index ("BPI"), the equivalent capacity of approximately 2.5 modern Panamax –size drybulk carriers. In 2010, the Company bought a "put" option contract on the BPI for 360 days with $16,500 per day striking price and sold a "call" option contract for 360 days on the BPI with $23,500 per day on the BPI both for calendar 2011. None of the "mark-to-market" positions of the open FFA contracts qualified for hedge accounting treatment.
Fair value of financial instruments
The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable are reasonable estimates of their fair value due to the short term nature of these financial instruments. The fair value of long term bank loans bearing interest at variable interest rates approximates the recorded values. Additionally, the Company considers the creditworthiness when determining the fair value of the credit facilities. The carrying value approximates the fair market value of the floating rate loans. The fair value of the Company's interest rate swaps was the estimated amount the Company would pay to terminate the swap agreements at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and the current creditworthiness of the Company and its counter parties. The fair value of trading securities and FFA contracts is based on the closing price on the last day of the reporting period.
The Company follows guidance relating to "Fair value measurements", which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. This statement enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The statement requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data;
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
The fair value of the Company's investments in trading securities and FFA contracts are determined based on quoted prices in active markets and therefore are considered Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy as defined in guidance relating to "Fair value measurements."

The fair value of the Company's interest rate swap agreements is determined using a discounted cash flow approach based on market-based LIBOR swap rates. LIBOR swap rates are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full terms of the swaps and therefore are considered Level 2 items. The fair values of the interest rate swap determined through Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as defined in guidance relating to "Fair value measurements" are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets, liabilities (risk adjusted) and market-corroborated inputs, such as market comparables, interest rates, yield curves and other items that allow value to be determined. As of December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2011, no fair value measurements for assets or liabilities under Level 3 were recognized in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
