The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~November 19, 2026 (estimated)

Diana Shipping Inc.'s trailing-twelve-month revenue fell 6.4% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 21.5%. Where it stands out: change in share count of -6.9% ranks 4 of 39 marine transportation companies we cover.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$6.4 per share in the base case (~$3.7–$9.8 across growth scenarios) — model values under stated assumptions, not a price target.

Current signal Free cash flow diverging from earnings: TTM free cash flow fell 42.6% while net income grew 39.9%: a 82pp divergence.

Assembled from SEC-filed figures — the full workings are on this page and in our methodology. Observations, not recommendations.

Strengths

  • Strong cash generation. 21.5% of revenue turned into free cash flow, against a median of 13.6% for marine transportation companies we cover.
  • Shrinking share count. Diluted shares fell 6.9% in a year, so each share owns more of the business.

Things to watch

  • Revenue shrinking. Revenue fell 6.4% over the last 12 months.
  • Margins narrowing. Operating margin is down 6.0 points on a year ago.
  • High debt. Long-term debt exceeds cash by $0.4bn, more than 1.5 times annual revenue.
  • Volatile shares. Over the past year the shares showed annualised volatility of 47% and a beta of 1.5 against the S&P 500.
