DAC Stock Recent News

I continue to lean bullish on Danaos after prior concerns about capital allocation earlier this year. Recent fleet expansion at attractive rates has improved the investment case for DAC. Q2 results showed strong contract coverage, reduced leverage, and clarified the order book and cash position.

Rigetti's pact with India's C-DAC aims to co-develop hybrid quantum systems, opening doors to new markets and research opportunities.

Danaos Corp. offers exceptional value - trading well below tangible asset value, with strong balance sheet safety and a robust earnings outlook. The company secures high profitability through long-term charter contracts, locking in favorable rates and providing revenue stability. Despite exceptional fundamentals and quant ratings, the market has yet to fully recognize the underlying asset value in DAC's share quote.

Occidental Petroleum Corporation is heavily U.S. and Permian-focused, lacking both true diversification and pure-play shale status compared to peers. The company's main operational upside lies in Enhanced Oil Recovery, or EOR, using carbon capture, which benefits from lucrative tax credits. Direct Air Capture, or DAC, is a costly, inefficient carbon capture method; cheaper, scalable alternatives exist, making Oxy's heavy DAC investment questionable.

ATHENS, Greece , July 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Danaos Corporation (NYSE: DAC), one of the world's largest independent owners of containerships, announced today that it will release its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025, after the close of the market in New York on Monday, August 4, 2025. The Company's management team will host a conference call to discuss the results on Tuesday, August 5, 2025 at 9:00 A.M.

Danaos is well-positioned in a challenging shipping market due to its low leverage, strong balance sheet, and focus on sub-12,000 TEU vessels. Long-term charters and a diversified customer base insulate DAC from near-term market volatility and provide stable cash flows through at least 2027. Elevated scrapping activity, environmental regulations, and DAC's modern fleet should drive long-term competitive advantages as older ships exit the market.

Danaos boasts a $3.7 billion revenue backlog, providing nearly four years of cash flow visibility and strong charter coverage into 2026. Management has secured premium, long-term rates for all newbuild containerships, supporting predictable growth and high returns. Share repurchases have accelerated and the stock trades at a steep discount to book value, making the risk-reward highly attractive.
