Global Ship Lease's strong backlog and improved balance sheet make both common and preferred shares appealing, despite potential volatility in charter rates. 2024 was a strong year with increased revenue and decreased net debt, resulting in a net profit of $92.6M and EPS of $2.54. The Series B preferred shares offer an 8.4% yield and are well covered, backed by a robust balance sheet with $1.35B in common equity.

Meaningful revenue backlog continues to grow. This offers earnings visibility ahead of time and an ongoing deleveraging strategy. The company disposed of three older containerships with higher book value. GSL offers double-digit total return (thanks to dividends and buyback), low P/E, and solid FCF generation. It is a clear buy.

Global Ship Lease (NYSE:GSL) offers a compelling investment opportunity with a 10% yield, trading below fair value due to recent market turmoil. GSL's stable, predictable cash flow is backed by long-term contracts with top-tier counterparts, ensuring resilience amid market volatility. The company's strong financial position, with significant debt reduction and increasing dividends, highlights its commitment to shareholder returns.

Dividend stocks are still a good investment right now, even though many investors are focusing on buying the dip.
