SB Stock Recent News

Safe Bulkers employs nine vessels under spot charters and 38 under time charters. The mix between time and spot charters pays off. Net revenue grew by 11% yearly to $78.5 million in 2Q24. Higher day rates combined with more available days contributed to this increase. The company's valuation at 47% PNAV presents significant upside potential, supported by favorable dry bulk market fundamentals. Besides that, SB offers well-secured dividends.
