We see ~30% downside risk to dry bulk asset values on historical EV/EBITDA multiples and the prevailing 1-year TCs. Thus, given our muted near-term outlook on the dry bulk segment, we believe valuations must converge lower. However, at Star Bulk’s heavily discounted 0.67x EV/GAV (bulker peer group: 0.72x), we believe much of the downside risk is priced in and leaves a fair risk/reward, despite the risk of no DPS in Q1 for the first time since 2020. Hence, we reiterate our HOLD but have lowered o...
The US Trade Representative on 17 April published revised US port fees with significant changes to the initial proposal based on industry feedback. In its current form, the fees will primarily discourage use of Chinese-controlled maritime trade services to the US, and directly affect the use of Chinese-built vessels in US ports (with several considerable exemptions to avoid harm to US trade). The previous broader fees based on fleet composition and share of Chinese-built vessels has been scrappe...

The recurring theme at our 18th Energy & Shipping Conference was geopolitical uncertainty and a potential trade war, warranting a wait-and-see approach, particularly on the Trump 2.0 effect. The consensus view pointed to high asset values, with no rush to the yards, aligning with below-NAV valuations across most of our coverage. However, panellists generally saw less downside risk than the 25% average discount to steel for our Tanker, Dry Bulk and Gas coverage. Overall, the day highlighted uncer...
We have updated our estimates following Star Bulk’s Q4 report, Q1 bookings, and other minor model adjustments. We have lowered our 2025e EBITDA by 3%, maintained our 2026e, and introduced our 2027e. The company remains notably discounted to underlying values (P/NAV of 0.61x), but we continue to believe the dry bulk market will be challenged by weak fundamentals despite seasonal tailwinds from here. We expect continued downward pressure on still-elevated consensus, making for a balanced risk/rewa...

We remain cautious on the dry bulk sector and believe negative momentum in freight rates, asset values, and sell-side consensus will remain a burden on the stock near-term. However, Star Bulk is trading at a significant discount to underlying values (we calculate 0.66x EV/GAV), which alleviates much of the downside risk, in our view. Hence, we reiterate our HOLD, but have cut our target price to USD16.0 (20.2).

We still see downward pressure on rates and asset values due to the imbalance between China’s underlying raw materials demand and its imports. On our 2025e spot rates and historical valuation multiples, we see 23% downside risk to current 5-year-old Capesize values, and even more for its Supramaxes. Still, we find the share price should be covered even in the event of a 25% drop in asset values. Hence, we have upgraded to HOLD (SELL) and raised our target price to USD20.2 (19.3).

We remain concerned about material headwinds for dry bulk demand in the coming months, while asset values at 15-year highs continue to underpin elevated NAVs despite a less-than-impressive freight market. However, Star Bulk’s recent share price weakness now values it at a considerable 35% discount to NAV, removing much of the downside risk, in our view. We reiterate our HOLD, but have cut our target price to USD21 (26.4).
