Table of Contents

Vessels, net

Vessels, net is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Included in vessel costs are acquisition costs directly attributable to the acquisition of a vessel and expenditures made to prepare the vessel for its initial voyage. The Company also capitalizes interest costs for a vessel under construction as a cost which is directly attributable to the acquisition of a vessel. Vessels are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, determined to be 25 years from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard. Depreciation expense for vessels for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $31,424 and $23,546, respectively.

Depreciation expense is calculated based on cost less the estimated residual scrap value. The costs of significant replacements, renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over the shorter of the vessel’s remaining estimated useful life or the estimated life of the renewal or betterment. Undepreciated cost of any asset component being replaced that was acquired after the initial vessel purchase is written off as a component of vessel operating expense. Expenditures for routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Scrap value is estimated by the Company by taking the cost of steel times the weight of the ship noted in lightweight tons (lwt). Effective January 1, 2011, the Company increased the estimated scrap value of the vessels from $175/lwt to $245/lwt prospectively based on the 15-year average scrap value of steel. The change in the estimated scrap value will result in a decrease in depreciation expense over the remaining life of the vessel assets. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the increase in the estimated scrap value resulted in a decrease in depreciation expense of $611.

Deferred revenue

Deferred revenue primarily relates to cash received from charterers prior to it being earned. These amounts are recognized as income when earned. Additionally, deferred revenue includes estimated customer claims mainly due to time charter performance issues. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had an accrual of $671 and $689, respectively, related to these estimated customer claims.

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are amounts due from charterers, cash and cash equivalents, deposits on vessels and interest rate swap agreements. With respect to amounts due from charterers, the Company attempts to limit its credit risk by performing ongoing credit evaluations and, when deemed necessary, requires letters of credit, guarantees or collateral. During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company earned 100% of its revenues from twenty-nine and nineteen customers, respectively. Management does not believe significant risk exists in connection with the Company’s concentrations of credit at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, there was one customer that individually accounted for more than 10% of revenues, Cargill International S.A., which represented 28.64% of revenues. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, there were two customers that individually accounted for more than 10% of revenues, Cargill International S.A. and Pacific Basin Chartering Ltd., which represented 28.83% and 11.02% of revenues, respectively.

At March 31, 2011, the Company maintains all of its cash and cash equivalents with four financial institutions. None of the Company’s cash and cash equivalent balances is covered by insurance in the event of default by these financial institutions.

Deposits on vessels are held in escrow accounts maintained by DnB NOR Bank ASA. None of the deposits on vessel balances are covered by insurance in the event of default by this financial institution.

At March 31, 2011, the Company has nine interest rate swap agreements with DnB NOR Bank ASA to manage interest costs and the risk associated with changing interest rates related to the 2007 Credit Facility. None of the interest rate swap agreements are covered by insurance in the event of default by this financial institution.

Derivative financial instruments

Interest rate risk management

The Company is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. The Company’s objective is to manage the impact of interest rate changes on its earnings and cash flow in relation to borrowings primarily for the purpose of acquiring drybulk vessels. These borrowings are subject to a variable borrowing rate. The Company uses pay-fixed receive-variable interest rate swaps to manage future interest costs and the risk associated with changing interest rate obligations. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges of future variable rate interest payments and are tested for effectiveness on a quarterly basis. Refer to Note 11 — Interest Rate Swap Agreements for further information regarding the interest rate swaps held by the Company.

10

Table of Contents

The differential to be paid or received for the effectively hedged portion of any swap agreement is recognized as an adjustment to interest expense as incurred. Additionally, the changes in value for the portion of the swaps that are effectively hedging future interest payments are reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income (“AOCI”).

For the interest rate swaps that are not designated as an effective hedge, the change in the value and the rate differential to be paid or received is recognized as other (expense) income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Noncontrolling interests

Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 reflects the noncontrolling interest’s share of the net loss of Baltic Trading, a subsidiary of the Company, which owns and employs drybulk vessels in the spot market or on spot market-related time charters. The spot market represents immediate chartering of a vessel, usually for single voyages. At March 31, 2011, the noncontrolling interest held a 74.76% economic interest in Baltic Trading while only holding 16.49% of voting power.

Income taxes

Pursuant to certain agreements, GS&T technically and commercially manages vessels for Baltic Trading, as well as provides technical management of vessels for MEP in exchange for specified fees for these services provided. These services are performed by Genco Management (USA) Limited (“Genco (USA)”), which has elected to be taxed as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes. As such, Genco (USA) is subject to United States federal income tax on its worldwide net income, including the net income derived from providing these services. Genco (USA) has entered into a cost-sharing agreement with the Company and Genco Ship Management LLC, collectively Manco, pursuant to which Genco (USA) agrees to reimburse Manco for the costs incurred by Genco (USA) for the use of Manco’s personnel and services in connection with the provision of the services for both Baltic Trading and MEP’s vessels. Total revenue earned for these services during the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $1,539, of which $729 eliminated upon consolidation. After allocation of certain expenses, there was taxable income of $719 associated with these activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011. This resulted in estimated tax expense of $364 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. There was no income tax expense incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2010 as the Company was not providing services to MEP during that time and Baltic Trading did not have any vessels that were delivered as of March 31, 2010.

Baltic Trading is subject to income tax on its United States source income. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, Baltic Trading had United States operations which resulted in United States source income of $1,063. Baltic Trading’s estimated United States income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $5.

3 - SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company determines its operating segments based on the information utilized by the chief operating decision maker to assess performance. Based on this information, the Company has two operating segments, GS&T and Baltic Trading. Both GS&T and Baltic Trading are engaged in the ocean transportation of drybulk cargoes worldwide through the ownership and operation of drybulk carrier vessels. GS&T seeks to deploy its vessels on time charters, spot market-related time charters or in vessel pools trading in the spot market and Baltic Trading seeks to deploy its vessel charters in the spot market, which represents immediate chartering of a vessel, usually for single voyages, or employing vessels on spot market-related time charters. Segment results are evaluated based on net income. The accounting policies applied to the reportable segments are the same as those used in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The following table presents a reconciliation of total revenue from external (third party) customers for the Company’s two operating segments to total consolidated revenue from external customers for the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

5 - VESSEL ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

On June 24, 2010, GS&T executed a Master Agreement with Bourbon SA (“Bourbon”) under which GS&T purchased sixteen drybulk vessels, including two newbuildings, for an aggregate price of $545,000. Total vessel deposits of $54,500 were made during the second quarter of 2010. Upon the delivery of each vessel, GS&T recorded a commission due to its financial advisor equivalent to 1% of the purchase price of the vessel and which was included as a component of the vessel asset. GS&T has retained thirteen of the sixteen vessels, twelve of which were delivered to GS&T in the third quarter of 2010 and one of which was delivered in the first quarter of 2011. Refer to Note 1 — General Information for a listing of all vessels delivered. GS&T determined not to retain three of the sixteen vessels, including one newbuilding. Therefore, upon delivery of these vessels, one of which was delivered during the third quarter of 2010 and two of which were delivered during the fourth quarter of 2010, GS&T immediately resold them upon delivery based on GS&T’s aggregate purchase price of approximately $105,000 to MEP, a related party. GS&T entered into definitive agreements with MEP for this purpose. An independent committee of the Company’s Board of Directors reviewed and approved this transaction. One of the vessels was sold to MEP during the third quarter of 2010 for $36,562, and two of the vessels were sold to MEP during the fourth quarter of 2010 for a total of $69,993, each of which included the 1% commission fee noted above. GS&T has financed the acquisition of these vessels, excluding the MEP vessels, using bank debt for approximately 60% of the purchase price, cash on hand, and proceeds from its concurrent offerings of common stock and 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due August 15, 2015, which were completed on July 27, 2010. (Refer to Note 10 — Convertible Senior Notes for further details.)

On June 3, 2010, GS&T entered into an agreement to purchase five Handysize drybulk vessels, including four newbuildings, from companies within the Metrostar group of companies for an aggregate purchase price of $166,250.

Two of the vessels were delivered during the third quarter of 2010. The Genco Ocean, a newbuilding Handysize vessel, was delivered on July 26, 2010 and the Genco Bay, a 2010 built Handysize vessel, was delivered on August 24, 2010. The remaining three vessels are expected to be delivered to the Company between May 2011 and November 2011. Four of the five vessels are secured on long term time charters, each of which includes a minimum and maximum base rate as well as profit-sharing components, with Cargill International S.A. The remaining vessel is secured on a spot market-related time charter with Cargill International S.A. at a rate based on 115% of the average of the daily rates of the Baltic Handysize Index (“BHSI”), an index published by The Baltic Exchange. GS&T plans to finance the acquisition of the remaining vessels using operating cash as well as the

GS&T recorded a liability for time charter acquired of $2,146 during the third quarter of 2010. The acquired time charters for the two Bourbon vessels were fully amortized as of December 31, 2010. Below market time charters, including those acquired during previous periods, were amortized as an increase to voyage revenue in the amount of $473 and $1,333 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Capitalized interest expense associated with newbuilding contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $79 and $0, respectively.

6 - INVESTMENTS

The Company holds an investment in the capital stock of Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited (“Jinhui”). Jinhui is a drybulk shipping owner and operator focused on the Supramax segment of drybulk shipping. This investment is designated as Available For Sale (“AFS”) and is reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses recorded in shareholders’ equity as a component of AOCI. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company held 16,335,100 shares of Jinhui capital stock which is recorded at its fair value of $55,144 and $54,714, respectively, based on the closing price on March 31, 2011 and December 30, 2010.

The Company reviews the investment in Jinhui for other than temporary impairment on a quarterly basis. There were no impairment charges recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

The unrealized gain on the Jinhui capital stock remains a component of AOCI, since this investment is designated as an AFS security.

Refer to Note 12 — Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income for a breakdown of the components of AOCI.

7 - EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

The computation of basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The computation of diluted earnings per share assumes the vesting of nonvested stock awards (refer to Note 21 — Nonvested Stock Awards), for which the assumed proceeds upon vesting are deemed to be the amount of compensation cost attributable to future services and are not yet recognized using the treasury stock method, to the extent dilutive. Of the 809,087 nonvested shares outstanding at March 31, 2011 (refer to Note 21 — Nonvested Stock Awards), 650,838 shares are anti-dilutive. The Company’s

14

Table of Contents

diluted earnings per share will also reflect the assumed conversion under the Company’s convertible debt if the impact is dilutive under the “if converted” method. The impact of the convertible debt is excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share when interest expense per common share obtainable upon conversion is greater than basic earnings per share.

The components of the denominator for the calculation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share are as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended March 31, |
|  | 2011 |  | 2010 |
Common shares outstanding, basic: |  |  |  |  |

10 — CONVERTIBLE SENIOR NOTES

The Company issued $125,000 of 5.0% Convertible Senior Notes on July 27, 2010 (the “2010 Notes”). The Notes mature on August 15, 2015 and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of approximately 51.0204 shares of common stock per (in whole dollars) $1,000 principal amount of the Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $19.60 per share, representing a 22.5% conversion premium over the concurrent offering price of $16.00 per share of the Company’s common stock on July 21, 2010), subject to adjustment, based on the occurrence of certain events, including, but not limited to, (i) the issuance of certain dividends on our common stock, (ii) the issuance of certain rights, options or warrants, (iii) the effectuation of share splits or combinations, (iv) certain distributions of property and (v) certain issuer tender or exchange offers as described in the Indenture, with the amount due on conversion payable in shares, cash, or a combination thereof at the Company’s discretion. The total underlying shares of the Notes are 6,377,551 shares of common stock. Since the Company can settle a conversion of the notes with shares, cash, or a combination thereof at its discretion, the Company allocated the convertible debt proceeds between the liability component and the embedded conversion option (i.e., the equity component). The liability component of the debt instrument is accreted to par value using the effective interest method over the remaining life of the debt. This amortization is reported as a component of interest expense. The equity component is not subsequently revalued as long as it continues to qualify for equity treatment.

Upon issuance, the Company estimated the fair value of the liability component of the 2010 Notes, assuming a 10% non-convertible borrowing rate, to be $100,625, excluding the fair value of the conversion option. The difference between the fair value and the principal amount of the 2010 Notes was $24,375. This amount was recorded as a debt discount and as an increase to additional paid-in capital as of the issuance date and the Company proportionately allocated approximately $918 of issuance costs against this equity component. The issuance cost allocated to the liability component of $3,637 along with the debt discount is being amortized to interest expense over the approximate 5 year period to the maturity of the 2010 Notes on August 15, 2015 resulting in additional interest expense in future periods. The issuance cost allocated to the liability component has been recorded as deferred financing costs, refer to Note 15 — Other Assets, Net.

The 2010 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of July 27, 2010 (the “Base Indenture”), by and between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 27, 2010, by and between the Company and the Trustee (the “Supplemental Indenture,” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The 2010 Notes are represented by a global security, executed by the Company, in the form attached to the Supplemental Indenture.

Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on February 15, 2011. The Notes will mature on August 15, 2015, subject to earlier repurchase or conversion upon the occurrence of certain events. Holders may convert their 2010 Notes before February 15, 2015, only in certain circumstances determined by (i) the market price of the Company’s common stock, (ii) the trading price of the 2010 Notes, or (iii) the occurrence of specified corporate events. The 2010 Notes are subject to repurchase by the Company at the option of the holders following a fundamental change, as defined in the Indenture, including, but not limited to, (i) certain ownership changes, (ii) certain recapitalizations, mergers and dispositions, (iii) approval of any plan or proposal for the liquidation, or dissolution of our company, and (iv) our common stock ceasing to be listed on any of the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Global Select Market, any of their respective successors or any other U.S. national securities exchange, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2010 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest up to the fundamental change repurchase date. After February 15, 2015, holders may convert their 2010 Notes at any time thereafter until the second scheduled trading day preceding maturity.

The Indenture includes customary agreements and covenants by the Company, including with respect to events of default.

13 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are noted below. All carrying values approximate the instrument’s fair values with the exception of the 2010 Notes.

|  | March 31, 2011 |  | December 31, 2010 |
Cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 275,466 |  | $ | 270,877 |
Restricted cash |  | 9,750 |  | 9,000 |
Investments |  | 55,144 |  | 54,714 |
Floating rate debt |  | 1,647,478 |  | 1,643,939 |
2010 Notes |  | 117,500 |  | 129,531 |
Derivative instruments — liability position |  | 36,079 |  | 43,297 |

The fair value of the investments is based on quoted market rates. The fair value of the floating rate debt under the 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility and the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility are estimated based on current rates offered to the Company for similar debt of the same remaining maturities. Additionally, the Company considers its creditworthiness in determining the fair value of floating rate debt under the credit facilities. The carrying value approximates the fair market value for these floating rate loans. The fair value of the convertible senior notes payable represents the market value of the 2010 Notes at March 31, 2011 without bifurcating the value of the conversion option. The fair value of the interest rate swaps is the estimated amount the Company would receive to terminate the swap agreements at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and the creditworthiness of both the swap counterparty and the Company.

The Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements & Disclosures” (“ASC 820-10”), applies to all assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis. This guidance enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The guidance requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The following table summarizes the valuation of the Company’s investments and financial instruments by the above pricing levels as of the valuation dates listed:

|  | March 31, 2011 |
|  | Total |  | Quoted market prices in active markets (Level 1) |  | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) |
Investments |  | $ | 55,144 |  | $ | 55,144 |  | $ | — |
2010 Notes |  | 117,500 |  | — |  | 117,500 |
Derivative instruments — liability position |  | 36,079 |  | — |  | 36,079 |

|  | December 31, 2010 |
|  | Total |  | Quoted market prices in active markets (Level 1) |  | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) |
Investments |  | $ | 54,714 |  | $ | 54,714 |  | $ | — |
2010 Notes |  | 129,531 |  | — |  | 129,531 |
Derivative instruments — liability position |  | 43,297 |  | — |  | 43,297 |

Table of Contents

The Company holds an investment in the capital stock of Jinhui, which is classified as a long-term investment. The stock of Jinhui is publicly traded on the Oslo Stock Exchange and is considered a Level 1 item. The 2010 Notes are publicly traded in the over-the-counter market; however, they are not considered to be actively traded. As such, the 2010 Notes have been classified as a Level 2 Item. The Company’s interest rate derivative instruments are pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swaps based on LIBOR. The Company has elected to use the income approach to value the derivatives, using observable Level 2 market inputs at measurement date and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount assuming that participants are motivated, but not compelled to transact. Level 2 inputs for the valuations are limited to quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets (specifically futures contracts on LIBOR for the first two years) and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (specifically LIBOR cash and swap rates and credit risk at commonly quoted intervals). Mid-market pricing is used as a practical expedient for fair value measurements. Refer to Note 11 — Interest Rate Swap Agreements for further information regarding the Company’s interest rate swap agreements. ASC 820-10 states that the fair value measurement of an asset or liability must reflect the nonperformance risk of the entity and the counterparty. Therefore, the impact of the counterparty’s creditworthiness when in an asset position and the Company’s creditworthiness when in a liability position has also been factored into the fair value measurement of the derivative instruments in an asset or liability position and did not have a material impact on the fair value of these derivative instruments. As of March 31, 2011, both the counterparty and the Company are expected to continue to perform under the contractual terms of the instruments.

19 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In September 2005, the Company entered into a 15-year lease for office space in New York, New York for which there was a free rental period from September 1, 2005 to July 31, 2006. The monthly straight-line rental expense from September 1, 2005 to August 31, 2020 is $39. As a result of the straight-line rent calculation generated by the free rent period and the tenant work credit, the Company had a deferred rent credit at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 of $644 and $657, respectively. Rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $117 for each respective period.

Future minimum rental payments on the above lease for the next five years and thereafter are as follows: $388 for the remainder of 2011, $518 annually for 2012 through 2014, $529 for 2015 and a total of $2,568 for the remaining term of the lease.

Effective April 4, 2011, the Company entered into a seven-year sub-sublease agreement for a larger office space in New York, New York. The term of the sub-sublease is expected to commence approximately June 1, 2011, with a free base rental period during the first five months of such term (expected to be from June 1, 2011 to October 31, 2011). Following the expiration of the free base rental period, the monthly base rental payments will be $82 per month until the last day of the 48 th month of the term (expected to be May 31, 2015) and thereafter will be $90 per month until the end of the seven-year term. Pursuant to the sub-sublease agreement, the

sublessor is obligated to contribute $472 toward the cost of the Company’s alterations to the sub-subleased office space. The Company has also entered into a direct lease with the over-landlord of such office space that will commence, immediately upon the expiration of such sub-sublease agreement, for a term covering the period from May 1, 2018 to September 30, 2025; the direct lease provides for a free base rental period from May 1, 2018 to September 30, 2018. Following the expiration of the free base rental period, the monthly base rental payments will be $186 per month from October 1, 2018 to April 30, 2023 and $204 per month from May 1, 2023 to September 30, 2025. For accounting purposes, the sub-sublease agreement and direct lease agreement with the landlord will constitute one lease agreement. As a result of the straight-line rent calculation generated by the free rent period and the tenant work credit, the monthly straight-line rental expense for the term of the entire lease from the estimated start date of June 1, 2011 to September 30, 2025 will be $130.

Future minimum rental payments on the above lease for the next five years and thereafter are as follows: $164 for the remainder of 2011, $982 annually for 2012 through 2014, $1,037 for 2015 and a total of $18,658 for the remaining term of the lease.

21 - NONVESTED STOCK AWARDS

On July 12, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the Genco Shipping & Trading Limited 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the “GS&T Plan”). Under this plan, the Company’s Board of Directors, the compensation committee, or another designated committee of the Board of Directors may grant a variety of stock-based incentive awards to employees, directors and consultants whom the compensation committee (or other committee of the board of directors) believes are key to the Company’s success.

22 - SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

On February 13, 2008, the Company’s board of directors approved a share repurchase program for up to a total of $50,000 of the Company’s common stock. Share repurchases will be made from time to time for cash in open market transactions at prevailing market prices or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing and amount of purchases under the program will be determined by management based upon market conditions and other factors. Purchases may be made pursuant to a program adopted under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The program does not require the

26

Table of Contents

Company to purchase any specific number or amount of shares and may be suspended or reinstated at any time in the Company’s discretion and without notice. Repurchases will be subject to restrictions under the 2007 Credit Facility. Currently, the terms of the 2007 Credit Facility require the Company to suspend all share repurchases until the Company can represent that it is in a position to again satisfy the collateral maintenance covenant. Refer to Note 9 — Long-Term Debt.

Since the inception of the share repurchase program through March 31, 2011, the Company repurchased and retired 278,300 shares of its common stock for $11,500. No share repurchases were made during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

23 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, the Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of its business, principally personal injury and property casualty claims. Such claims, even if lacking merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources.

Table of Contents

General

We are a Marshall Islands company that transports iron ore, coal, grain, steel products and other drybulk cargoes along worldwide shipping routes through the ownership and operation of drybulk carrier vessels. Excluding vessels of Baltic Trading Limited (“Baltic Trading”), as of May 10, 2011, our fleet consisted of nine Capesize, eight Panamax, 17 Supramax, six Handymax and ten Handysize drybulk carriers, with an aggregate carrying capacity of approximately 3,707,000 dwt, and the average age of our fleet was approximately 6.4 years, as compared to the average age for the world fleet of approximately 14 years for the drybulk shipping segments in which we compete. After the expected delivery of three Handysize vessels that we have agreed to acquire and retain, we will own a fleet of fifty-three drybulk vessels, consisting of nine Capesize, eight Panamax, 17 Supramax, six Handymax and thirteen Handysize vessels, excluding the vessels of Baltic Trading. We seek to deploy our vessels on time charters, spot market-related time charters or in vessel pools trading in the spot market, to reputable charterers, including Lauritzen Bulkers A/S or LB/IVS Pool, in which Lauritzen Bulkers A/S acts as the pool manager (collectively, “Lauritzen Bulkers”), Cargill International S.A., Pacific Basin Chartering Ltd., COSCO Bulk Carriers Co., Ltd., and Oldendorff GMBH and Co. KG. Lubeck. The majority of the vessels in our current fleet are presently engaged under time charter contracts that expire (assuming the option periods in the time charters are not exercised) between May 2011 and June 2013.

In addition, as of May 10, 2011, Baltic Trading’s fleet consisted of two Capesize, four Supramax and three Handysize drybulk carriers with an aggregate carrying capacity of approximately 672,000 dwt.

See pages 32 - 36 for a table of all vessels that have been delivered or are expected to be delivered to us, including Baltic Trading’s vessels.

We intend to acquire additional modern, high-quality drybulk carriers through timely and selective acquisitions of vessels in a manner that is accretive to our cash flow. We expect to fund acquisitions of additional vessels using cash reserves set aside for this purpose, additional borrowings and may consider additional debt and equity financing alternatives from time to time.

On June 3, 2010, we entered into an agreement to purchase a total of eight Handysize drybulk vessels, including five newbuildings, from companies within the Metrostar group of companies for an aggregate purchase price of $266.0 million. Five of these vessels will be owned by us and three will be owned by Baltic Trading. Additionally, on June 24, 2010, we entered into a Master Agreement with Bourbon SA (“Bourbon”) to purchase sixteen drybulk vessels, including two newbuildings, for an aggregate purchase price of $545.0 million. We have retained thirteen of the sixteen vessels, including one newbuilding, and the remaining three vessels were immediately resold to Maritime Equity Partners LLC (“MEP”), a company managed by a company owned by our Chairman, Peter C. Georgiopoulos. Refer to Note 5 — Vessel Acquisitions and Dispositions in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information. A total of five vessels have been delivered from companies within the Metrostar group of companies and all sixteen vessels have been delivered from Bourbon, three of which were sold to MEP. The remaining Metrostar vessels are all planned to be delivered between May and November 2011.

In order to fund the acquisition of these vessels, we entered into two senior secured term loan facilities. On August 20, 2010, we entered into a $253 million senior secured term loan facility to be utilized to fund a portion of the purchase price of the acquisition of thirteen vessels from affiliate of Bourbon SA. On August 12, 2010, we entered into a $100 million senior secured term loan facility to be utilized to fund or refund to us a portion of the purchase price of the acquisition of five vessels from companies within the Metrostar group of companies. The Baltic Trading vessels have been funded utilizing its $150 million senior secured revolving credit facility for bridge financing.

Our management team and our other employees are responsible for the commercial and strategic management of our fleet. Commercial management includes the negotiation of charters for vessels, managing the mix of various types of charters, such as time charters and voyage charters, and monitoring the performance of our vessels under their charters. Strategic management includes locating, purchasing, financing and selling vessels. We currently contract with three independent technical managers to provide technical management of our fleet at a lower cost than we believe would be possible in-house. Technical management involves the day-to-day management of vessels, including performing routine maintenance, attending to vessel operations and arranging for crews and supplies. Members of our New York City-based management team oversee the activities of our independent technical managers.

From time to time in the current global economic environment, our charterers with long-term time charters may request to renegotiate the terms of our charters with them. As a general matter, we do not agree to make changes to the terms of our charters in response to such requests. The failure of any charterer to meet its obligations under our long-term time charters could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

Baltic Trading, formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, completed its IPO on March 15, 2010. As of March 31, 2011, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Genco Investments LLC owned 5,699,088 shares of Baltic Trading’s Class B Stock, which represents a 25.24% ownership interest in Baltic Trading at March 31, 2011 and 83.51% of the aggregate voting power of Baltic Trading’s outstanding shares of voting stock. Baltic Trading is consolidated with the Company, as we control a majority of

the voting interest in Baltic Trading. Management’s discussion and analysis of the Company’s results of operations and financial condition in this section includes the results of Baltic Trading.

We entered into a long-term management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Baltic Trading pursuant to which we apply our expertise and experience in the drybulk industry to provide Baltic Trading with commercial, technical, administrative and strategic services. The Management Agreement is for an initial term of approximately fifteen years and will automatically renew for additional five-year periods unless terminated in accordance with its terms. Baltic Trading will pay us for the services we provide it as well as reimburse us for our costs and expenses incurred in providing certain of these services. Management fee income we earn from the Management Agreement net of any allocated shared expenses, such as salary, office expenses and other general and administrative fees, will be taxable to us. Upon consolidation with Baltic Trading, any management fee income earned will be eliminated for financial reporting purposes.

We provide technical services for drybulk vessels purchased by MEP under an agency agreement between us and MEP. These services include oversight of crew management, insurance, drydocking, ship operations and financial statement preparation, but do not include chartering services. The services will be provided for a fee of $750 per ship per day plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket costs and will be provided for an initial term of one year. MEP will have the right to cancel provision of services on 60 days notice with payment of a one-year termination fee or without fee upon a Company change of control. The Company may terminate provision of the services at any time on 60 days notice. Mr. Georgiopoulos is a minority investor, and affiliates of Oaktree Capital Management, L.P., of which Stephen A. Kaplan is a principal, are majority investors in MEP. This arrangement was approved by an independent committee of our Board of Directors.

During January 2011, the Genco Success, a 1997-built Handymax vessel, was on charter to KLC when KLC filed for a rehabilitation application. We estimate that we have a claim of approximately $1.1 million against KLC related primarily to unpaid revenue earned prior to re-delivery of the vessel. If a rehabilitation plan is approved by the South Korean courts and it is determined that we will receive a cash settlement for our outstanding claim, any amounts due from KLC will be recorded once the collectibility of the receivable has been assessed and the amount has been deemed collectible.

Definitions

In order to understand our discussion of our results of operations, it is important to understand the meaning of the following terms used in our analysis and the factors that influence our results of operations.

(1) Ownership days. We define ownership days as the aggregate number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet has been owned by us. Ownership days are an indicator of the size of our fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of expenses that we record during a period.

(2) Available days. We define available days as the number of our ownership days in a period less the aggregate number of days that our vessels are off-hire due to scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades or special surveys and the aggregate amount of time that we spend positioning our vessels. Companies in the shipping industry generally use available days to measure the number of days in a period during which vessels should be capable of generating revenues.

(3) Operating days. We define operating days as the number of our available days in a period less the aggregate number of days that our vessels are off-hire due to unforeseen circumstances. The shipping industry uses operating days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period during which vessels actually generate revenues.

(4) Fleet utilization. We calculate fleet utilization by dividing the number of our operating days during a period by the number of our available days during the period. The shipping industry uses fleet utilization to measure a company’s efficiency in finding suitable employment for its vessels and minimizing the number of days that its vessels are off-hire for reasons other than scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades, special surveys or vessel positioning.

(5) TCE rates. We define TCE rates as net voyage revenue (voyage revenues less voyage expenses) divided by the number of our available days during the period, which is consistent with industry standards. TCE rate is a common shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare daily earnings generated by vessels on time charters with daily earnings generated by vessels on

voyage charters, because charterhire rates for vessels on voyage charters are generally not expressed in per-day amounts while charterhire rates for vessels on time charters generally are expressed in such amounts.

|  | For the three months ended March 31, |
|  | 2011 |  | 2010 |
Voyage revenues (in thousands) |  | $ | 100,619 |  | $ | 94,681 |
Voyage expenses (in thousands) |  | 968 |  | 737 |
|  | $ | 99,651 |  | $ | 93,944 |
Total available days |  | 5,202.4 |  | 3,105.7 |
Total TCE rate |  | $ | 19,155 |  | $ | 30,248 |

(6) Daily vessel operating expenses. We define daily vessel operating expenses as vessel operating expenses divided by ownership days for the period. Vessel operating expenses include crew wages and related costs, the cost of insurance, expenses relating to repairs and maintenance (excluding drydocking), the costs of spares and consumable stores, tonnage taxes and other miscellaneous expenses.

(1) EBITDA represents net income attributable to Genco Shipping & Trading Limited plus net interest expense, taxes and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is included because it is used by management and certain investors as a measure of operating performance. EBITDA is used by analysts in the shipping industry as a common performance measure to compare results across peers. Our management uses EBITDA as a performance measure in our consolidated internal financial statements, and it is presented for review at our board meetings. We believe that EBITDA is useful to investors as the shipping industry is capital intensive which often results in significant depreciation and cost of financing. EBITDA presents investors with a measure in addition to net income to evaluate our performance prior to these costs. EBITDA is not an item recognized by U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other indicator of a company’s operating performance required by U.S. GAAP. EBITDA is not a measure of liquidity or cash flows as shown in our consolidated statements of cash flows. The definition of EBITDA used here may not be comparable to that used by other companies. The foregoing definition of EBITDA differs from the definition of Consolidated EBITDA used in the financial covenants of our 2007 Credit Facility, our $253 Million Term Loan Credit Facility, and $100 Million Term Loan Credit Facility. Specifically, Consolidated EBITDA substitutes gross interest expense (which includes amortization of deferred financing costs) for net interest expense used in our definition of EBITDA, includes adjustments for restricted stock amortization and non-cash charges for deferred financing costs related to the refinancing of other credit facilities or any non-cash losses from our investment in Jinhui, and excludes extraordinary gains or losses and gains or losses from derivative instruments used for hedging purposes or sales of assets other than inventory sold in the ordinary course of business. The following table demonstrates our calculation of EBITDA and provides a reconciliation of EBITDA to net income for each of the periods presented above:

(1) The charter expiration dates presented represent the earliest dates that our charters may be terminated in the ordinary course. Except for the Genco Titus, Genco Constantine, and Genco Hadrian under the terms of each contract, the charterer is entitled to extend the time charters from two to four months in order to complete the vessel’s final voyage plus any time the vessel has been off-hire. The charterer of the Genco Titus and Genco Hadrian has the option to extend the charter for a period of one year. The Genco Constantine has the option to extend the charter for a period of eight months.

(2) Time charter rates presented are the gross daily charterhire rates before third-party commissions generally ranging from 1.25% to 6.25%. In a time charter, the charterer is responsible for voyage expenses such as bunkers, port expenses, agents’ fees and canal dues.

(3) For the vessels acquired with a below-market time charter rate, the approximate amount of revenue on a daily basis to be recognized as revenues is displayed in the column named ‘‘Net Revenue Daily Rate’’ and is net of any third-party commissions. Since these vessels were acquired with existing time charters with below-market rates, Genco allocated the purchase price between the respective vessels and an intangible liability for the value assigned to the below-market charter-hire. This intangible liability is amortized as an increase to voyage revenues over the minimum remaining terms of the applicable charters. The minimum remaining term for the Genco Titus is on September 16, 2011, at which point the respective liabilities were or will be amortized to zero and the vessels began or will begin earning the ‘‘Cash Daily Rate.’’ For cash flow purposes, we will continue to receive the rate presented in the ‘‘Cash Daily Rate’’ column until the charter expires.

(4) The charter is based on 100% of the average of the daily rates of the BCI, as reflected in daily reports. The duration of the time charter is 10.5 to 14.5 months with hire payment being made in arrears less a 5.00% third party brokerage commission. We maintain the option to convert the charter to a fixed rate based on 100% of Capesize FFA values

(5) These charters include a 50% index-based profit sharing component above the respective base rates listed in the table. The profit sharing between the charterer and us for each 15-day period is calculated by taking the average over that period of the published Baltic Cape Index of the four time charter routes, as reflected in daily reports. If such average is more than the base rate payable under the charter, the excess amount is allocable 50% to each of the charterer and us. A third-party brokerage commission of 3.75% based on the profit sharing amount due to us is payable out of our share.

(6) The duration of the spot market-related time charter for both vessels is 11 to 13.5 months with a hire payment based on 98.5% of the average of the daily rates of the BCI, as reflected in daily reports. Hire is paid every 15 days in arrears net of a 5.00% third party brokerage commission. We maintain the option to convert to a fixed rate based on Capesize FFA values at 98.5%.

(7) We have reached an agreement with U-Sea Bulk A/S, Copenhagen on a spot market-related time charter for the Genco Beauty based on 100% of the Baltic Panamax Index, or BPI, as reflected in daily reports, except for the initial 30 days after delivery in which hire is based on 100% of the Baltic Panamax P3A.

(10) The rate for the spot market-related time charter is based on 97% of the average of the daily rates of the BPI, as reflected in daily reports. Hire is paid every 15 days in arrears net of a 5.00% third party brokerage commission.

Three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010

VOYAGE REVENUES-

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, voyage revenues increased 6.3% to $100.6 million versus $94.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Revenues increased by approximately $5.9 million, primarily as a result of the increase in the size of our fleet and revenues earned by Baltic Trading’s vessels of $9.5 million offset by lower charter rates achieved for some of our vessels.

36

Table of Contents

The average Time Charter Equivalent (“TCE”) rate of our fleet decreased 36.7% to $19,155 a day for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $30,248 a day for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease in TCE rates resulted from lower charter rates achieved in the first quarter of 2011 versus the same period last year for the majority of the vessels in our fleet. Weather related disruptions reducing iron ore and coal volumes exported from Australia as well as peak newbuilding vessel deliveries during January of 2011 were the main contributors of reduced rates which affected the earnings of our vessels trading on spot market-related charters. Also contributing to the lower TCE rates were the acquisition from Metrostar and Bourbon of smaller class vessels, as well as the consolidation of Baltic Trading’s fleet, which predominantly consists of smaller vessels.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, we had 5,222.6 and 3,150.0 ownership days, respectively. The increase in ownership days is a result of the delivery of fourteen vessels during the third quarter of 2010 and one vessel during the first quarter of 2011 as well as the ownership days for Baltic Trading’s fleet of nine vessels which were acquired after March 31, 2010. Fleet utilization was stable at 99.5% and 99.6% for the three month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

During 2010, the Baltic Dry Index (a drybulk index) went from a high on May 26, 2010 of 4,209 and fell to a low of 1,700 on July 15, 2010. At December 31, 2010, the index was 1,773. The index subsequently decreased to a low of 1,043 on February 4, 2011 and as of May 3, 2011 was trading at 1,292. The lower index was mainly driven by a deteriorating freight rate environment in the Capesize sector. Supramax and Panamax vessels on the contrary maintained a more stable earnings profile through the cycle as a result of the broader cargo versatility of the vessels and demand strength of minor bulks. Factors contributing to the most recent downturn in rates include a decrease in demand due to disruptions caused by severe floods and other weather related issues in Australia, making it hard for coal and iron ore miners to export cargo to Asia as well as increased deliveries of newbuilding Capesize vessels.

SERVICE REVENUES-

Service revenues consist of revenues earned from providing technical services to MEP pursuant to the agency agreement between us and MEP. These services include oversight of crew management, insurance, drydocking, ship operations and financial statement preparation, but do not include chartering services. The services are provided for a fee of $750 per ship per day. During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, total service revenue was $810 and $0, respectively.

VOYAGE EXPENSES-

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, we did not incur significant port and canal charges or any significant expenses related to the consumption of bunkers (fuel) as part of our vessels’ overall expenses because all of our vessels were employed under time charters, spot market-related time charters, or in pools that require the charterer or pool to bear all of those expenses.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, voyage expenses were $1.0 million and $0.7 million, respectively, and consisted primarily of brokerage commissions paid to third parties.

VESSEL OPERATING EXPENSES-

Vessel operating expenses increased by $9.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, primarily a result of the operation of a larger fleet. Additionally, the increase was due to the operation of nine Baltic Trading vessels which were delivered during the second, third and fourth quarters of 2010, which accounted for $3.9 million of vessel operating expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase was also related to slightly higher crew expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Daily vessel operating expenses increased to $4,748 per vessel per day for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $4,726 per day for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase in daily vessel operating expenses was due to slightly higher crew costs on certain of our vessels. We believe daily vessel operating expenses are best measured for comparative purposes over a 12-month period in order to take into account all of the expenses that each vessel in our fleet will incur over a full year of operation. For 2011, we budgeted daily vessel operating expenses at a weighted average rate of $5,200 per vessel per day. Our actual daily vessel operating expenses per vessel for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were $452 below the budgeted rate.

Our vessel operating expenses, which generally represent fixed costs for each vessel, will increase as a result of the expansion of our fleet. Other factors beyond our control, some of which may affect the shipping industry in general, including, for instance, developments relating to market prices for crewing, lubes, and insurance, may also cause these expenses to increase.

GENERAL, ADMINISTRATIVE AND MANAGEMENT FEES-

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, general, administrative and management fees were $8.9 million and $5.8 million, respectively. The increase in general, administrative and management fees was primarily due to the increase in expenses associated with the operation of Baltic Trading, which resulted in $1.3 million of additional expenses, as well as the addition of personnel as the fleet expanded. We incur management fees to third-party technical management companies for the day-to-day management of our vessels, including performing routine maintenance, attending to vessel operations and arranging for crews and supplies. The increase in general, administrative and management fees was also a result of higher management fees related to the operation of a larger fleet.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION-

Depreciation and amortization charges increased by $8.2 million during the first quarter of 2011 as compared to the first quarter of 2010 primarily due to the operation of a larger fleet, including the fourteen vessels delivered during the third quarter of 2010 and one vessel delivered during the first quarter of 2011 as well as the nine Baltic Trading vessels delivered during 2010, which accounted for $3.6 million of the increase. This increase was slightly offset by a decrease in depreciation due to the change in estimated salvage value from $175 per lightweight ton to $245 per lightweight ton. Refer to Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding this change.

OTHER (EXPENSE) INCOME-

NET INTEREST EXPENSE-

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, net interest expense was $21.1 million and $15.4 million, respectively. Net interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2011 consisted of interest expense under our 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility, and Baltic Trading’s $150 million senior secured revolving credit facility as well as interest expense related to our 5.0% Convertible Senior Notes (the “2010 Notes”). Additionally, interest income, unused commitment fees associated with the credit facilities noted above as well as amortization of deferred financing costs related to the credit facilities noted above are included in net interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase in net interest expense for the first quarter of 2011 versus the first quarter of 2010 was primarily a result of borrowing under the additional credit facilities entered into by the Company during 2010 due to the acquisition of additional vessels during 2010, as well as net interest expense incurred by Baltic Trading, which increased by $1.1 million. Net interest expense during the first quarter of 2010 consisted primarily of interest expense under our 2007 Credit Facility as well as unused commitment fees and deferred financing costs related to the 2007 Credit Facility.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE-

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, income tax expense was $0.4 million as compared to $0 during the three months ended March 31, 2010. This income tax expense consists primarily of federal, state and local income taxes on net income earned by Genco Management (USA) Limited (“Genco (USA)”), one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Pursuant to certain agreements, we technically and commercially manage vessels for Baltic Trading, as well as provide technical management of vessels for MEP in exchange for specified fees for these services provided. These services are provided by Genco (USA), which has elected to be taxed as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes. As such, Genco (USA) is subject to United States federal income tax on its worldwide net income, including the net income derived from providing these services. Refer to the “Income taxes” section of Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.

NET LOSS ATTRIBUTABLE TO NONCONTROLLING INTEREST-

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest was $1.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively. These amounts represent the net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest of Baltic Trading, which completed its IPO on March 15, 2010.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

To date, we have financed our capital requirements with cash flow from operations, equity offerings, convertible notes and bank debt. We have used our funds primarily to fund vessel acquisitions, regulatory compliance expenditures, the repayment of bank debt and the associated interest expense and the payment of dividends. We will require capital to fund ongoing operations, acquisitions and debt service. Please refer to the discussion under the subheading “Dividend Policy” below for additional information

regarding dividends. We also may consider debt and additional equity financing alternatives from time to time. However, if market conditions become negative, we may be unable to raise additional equity capital or debt financing on acceptable terms or at all.

Currently, our wholly-owned subsidiary Genco Investments LLC owns 5,699,088 shares of Baltic Trading’s Class B Stock, which represents a 25.24% ownership interest in Baltic Trading and 83.51% of the aggregate voting power of Baltic Trading’s outstanding shares of voting stock. On April 16, 2010, Baltic Trading entered into a $100 million senior secured revolving credit facility with Nordea Bank Finland plc, acting through its New York branch (the “2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility”). The 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility was subsequently amended effective November 30, 2010 which increased the borrowing capacity from $100 million to $150 million. The amended 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility matures on November 30, 2016. See Note 9 – Long-Term Debt – 2010 Baltic Trading Credit facility in our condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of this facility as well as a description of the amendment entered into effective November 30, 2010. To remain in compliance with a net worth covenant in the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, Baltic Trading would need to maintain a net worth of $232.8 million after the payment of any dividends. We do not believe these restrictions have a significant impact on our liquidity.

We have entered into two secured term loan facilities during August 2010 in order to fund future vessel acquisitions. On August 12, 2010, we entered into a $100 million secured term loan facility to fund or refund to us a portion of the purchase price of the acquisition of five vessels from companies within the Metrostar group of companies. Additionally, on August 20, 2010, we entered into a $253 million senior secured term loan facility to fund a portion of the purchase price of the acquisition of thirteen vessels from Bourbon. Refer to Note 9 — Long-Term Debt of our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding these loan facilities.

On July 21, 2010, in two concurrent public offerings, we sold $125 million aggregate principal amount of the 2010 Notes and 3,593,750 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $15.28 per share, which reflected a price to the public of $16.00 per share less underwriting discounts and commissions of $0.72 per share. Such amounts reflected the exercise in full of the underwriters’ overallotment options.

The 2007 Credit Facility, the $253 Million Term Loan Facility, and the $100 Million Term Loan Facility each include a maximum leverage ratio covenant limiting the ratio of our net debt to EBITDA to a maximum of 5.5 to 1. We calculate the leverage ratio under our 2007 Credit Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility, and $100 Million Term Loan Facility by dividing our Average Consolidated Net Indebtedness by our Consolidated EBITDA as defined under these facilities. There is no leverage ratio covenant under the Baltic Trading 2010 Credit Facility. Average Consolidated Net Indebtedness is the monthly average of our indebtedness as defined under the facilities, which at March 31, 2011 consisted of long-term debt, the 2010 Notes, cash and cash equivalents (excluding restricted cash) and the letter of credit.

Pursuant to the current terms of the 2007 Credit Facility, the existing collateral maintenance financial covenant is waived, which required us to maintain pledged vessels with a value equal to at least 130% of our current borrowings, and accelerated the reductions of the total facility which began on March 31, 2009. Please read the “2007 Credit Facility” section below for further details. The collateral maintenance covenant is waived until we can represent that we are in compliance with all of our financial covenants. Under the collateral maintenance covenants of our $253 Million Term Loan Facility, our $100 Million Term Loan Facility, and the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, the aggregate valuations of our vessels pledged under each facility must at least be a certain percentage of loans outstanding (or, in the case of the Baltic Trading Credit Facility, the total amount we may borrow), which percentages are 135%, 130%, and 140%, respectively. Under our $253 Million Term Loan Facility, the amount payable upon early termination of any interest rate swaps under the facility is added to outstanding loans for purposes of this covenant. If our valuations fall below the applicable percentage, we must provide additional acceptable collateral, repay a portion of our borrowings, or (in the case of the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility) permanently reduce the amount we may borrow under the facility to the extent required to restore our compliance with the applicable covenant.

We were in compliance with the maximum leverage ratio covenant under our credit facilities at March 31, 2011 and would have remained in compliance at that date with a 10% reduction in our EBITDA. However, due to the current prolonged weakness in drybulk shipping rates and borrowings we expect to make under our $100 Million Term Loan Facility for our remaining three vessel acquisitions, we may not meet this ratio at some point during 2011 if these market conditions continue. While we are seeking waivers or modifications to our credit agreements and may also seek to raise additional capital through equity or debt offerings or selling assets (including vessels), we cannot be certain that we will accomplish any such actions. Absent such waivers or modifications, if we do not comply with these covenants, it would be an event of default under our credit agreements if we do not remedy our noncompliance within the applicable period following notice from our lenders. Upon an event of default under any of these three credit facilities, our lenders under each of these facilities may declare the indebtedness under our credit facilities to be immediately due and payable, and they may also terminate our ability to borrow further amounts under these facilities. In addition, if payment of any of our credit facility indebtedness were accelerated and such acceleration remained uncured within 30 days after we receive notice under the Indenture for our 2010 Notes, we would be in default under the Indenture, and our indebtedness under the 2010 Notes could be declared immediately due and payable unless we obtain a waiver. We can make no assurances that we could obtain additional or substitute financing if payment of any our indebtedness is accelerated. As a result, we may experience a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Dividend Policy

Historically, our dividend policy, which commenced in November 2005, has been to declare quarterly distributions to shareholders by each February, May, August and November, substantially equal to our available cash from operations during the previous quarter, less cash expenses for that quarter (principally vessel operating expenses and debt service) and any reserves our Board of Directors determines we should maintain. These reserves covered, among other things, drydocking, repairs, claims, liabilities and other obligations, interest expense and debt amortization, acquisitions of additional assets and working capital. In the future, we may incur other expenses or liabilities that would reduce or eliminate the cash available for distribution as dividends. Under the current terms of the 2007 Credit Facility, we are required to suspend the payment of cash dividends until we can represent that we are in a position to satisfy the collateral maintenance covenant. Refer to the 2010 10-K for further information regarding the current terms of the 2007 Credit Facility. As such, a dividend has not been declared during 2009, 2010 or the first quarter of 2011.

As a result of the 2009 Amendment to the 2007 Credit Facility, we have suspended the payment of cash dividends effective for the fourth quarter of 2008, and payment of cash dividends will remain suspended until we can meet the collateral maintenance covenant contained in the 2007 Credit Facility.

The declaration and payment of any dividend is subject to the discretion of our board of directors and our compliance with the collateral maintenance covenant, which is currently waived. The timing and amount of dividend payments will depend on our earnings, financial condition, cash requirements and availability, fleet renewal and expansion, restrictions in our loan agreements, the provisions of Marshall Islands law affecting the payment of distributions to shareholders and other factors. Our board of directors may review and amend our dividend policy from time to time in light of our plans for future growth and other factors.

We believe that, under current law, our dividend payments from earnings and profits will constitute “qualified dividend income” and, as such, will generally be subject to a 15% U.S. federal income tax rate with respect to non-corporate U.S. shareholders that meet certain holding period and other requirements (through 2012). Distributions in excess of our earnings and profits will be treated first as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of a U.S. shareholder’s tax basis in its common stock on a dollar-for-dollar basis and, thereafter, as capital gain.

Share Repurchase Program

On February 13, 2008, our board of directors approved our share repurchase program for up to a total of $50.0 million of our common stock. Share repurchases will be made from time to time for cash in open market transactions at prevailing market prices or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing and amount of purchases under the program were determined by management based upon market conditions and other factors. Purchases may be made pursuant to a program adopted under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act. The program does not require us to purchase any specific number or amount of shares and may be suspended or reinstated at any time in our discretion and without notice. Repurchases under the program are subject to restrictions under the 2007 Credit Facility. Currently, the terms of the 2007 Credit Facility require us to suspend all share repurchases until we can represent that we are in a position to again satisfy the collateral maintenance covenant. Refer to the “2007 Credit Facility” section below for further information. There were no share repurchases during the three months ended March 31, 2011 or 2010.

Cash Flow

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $40.2 million and $55.0 million, respectively. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to lower net income for the first quarter of 2011, which resulted primarily from lower charter rates achieved in the first quarter of 2011 versus the same period last year for the majority of the vessels in our fleet. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to March 31, 2010, the lower net income was offset by significantly higher depreciation and amortization due to the operation of a larger fleet as well as a lower impact of the amortization of time charters acquired.

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $36.0 million and $36.4 million, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to deposits of restricted cash of $0.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, cash used in investing activities primarily related to the purchase of vessels in the amount of $35.1 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, cash used in investing activities primarily related to the deposits on vessels in the amount of $35.6 million.

Table of Contents

Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to $198.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2010. Cash provided by financing activities in 2011 mainly consisted of $21.5 million of proceeds from the $253 Million Term Loan Facility related to the Bourbon vessels acquired offset by the following uses of cash: a $12.5 million repayment of debt under the 2007 Credit Facility, $4.7 million repayment of debt under the $253 Million Term Loan Facility, $0.8 million repayment of debt under the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $0.2 million of deferred financing costs and the $2.9 million dividend payment of Baltic Trading to its outside shareholders. For the same period last year, cash provided by financing activities consisted of $214.5 million of proceeds from the initial public offering of Baltic Trading offset by repayments on the 2007 Credit Facility of $12.5 million, $3.1 million for payments of common stock issuance costs and $0.3 million of deferred financing costs.

Credit Facilities

Refer to Note 9 – Long-Term Debt of our condensed consolidated financial statements for a summary and description of our outstanding credit facilities. The underlying financial and non-financial covenants have been summarized in the 2010 10-K.

As of March 31, 2011, we believe we are in compliance with all of the financial covenants under our 2007 Credit Facility (with the exception of the collateral maintenance financial covenant, which has been waived as discussed in Note 9 – Long-Term Debt of our condensed consolidated financial statements), the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, the $253 Million Term Loan Facility and the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements, Forward Freight Agreements and Currency Swap Agreements

At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had nine and ten interest rate swap agreements with DnB NOR Bank, respectively, to manage interest costs and the risk associated with changing interest rates. The total notional principal amount of the swaps is $706.2 million and $756.2 million, respectively, and the swaps have specified rates and durations.

Refer to the table in Note 11 — Interest Rate Swap Agreements of our condensed consolidated financial statements, which summarizes the interest rate swaps in place as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

We have considered the creditworthiness of both ourselves and the counterparty in determining the fair value of the interest rate derivatives, and such consideration resulted in an immaterial adjustment to the fair value of derivatives on the balance sheet. Valuations prior to any adjustments for credit risk are validated by comparison with counterparty valuations. Amounts are not and should not be identical due to the different modeling assumptions. Any material differences are investigated.

As part of our business strategy, we may enter into arrangements commonly known as forward freight agreements, or FFAs, to hedge and manage market risks relating to the deployment of our existing fleet of vessels. These arrangements may include future contract, or commitments to perform in the future a shipping service between ship owners, charterers and traders. Generally, these arrangements would bind us and each counterparty in the arrangement to buy or sell a specified tonnage freighting commitment “forward” at an agreed time and price and for a particular route. Although FFAs can be entered into for a variety of purposes, including for hedging, as an option, for trading or for arbitrage, if we decided to enter into FFAs, our objective would be to hedge and manage market risks as part of our commercial management. It is not currently our intention to enter into FFAs to generate a stream of income independent of the revenues we derive from the operation of our fleet of vessels. If we determine to enter into FFAs, we may reduce our exposure to any declines in our results from operations due to weak market conditions or downturns, but may also limit our ability to benefit economically during periods of strong demand in the market. We have not entered into any FFAs as of March 31, 2011.

Contractual Obligations

The following table sets forth our contractual obligations and their maturity dates as of March 31, 2011. The table incorporates our agreement with Metrostar to acquire three remaining Handysize vessels for an aggregate remaining purchase price of $89.8 million. Additionally, the table incorporates the employment agreement entered into in September 2007 with our Chief Financial Officer, John Wobensmith. The interest and borrowing fees reflect the 2007 Credit Facility, the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, as amended, the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, the $253 Million Term Loan Facility and the 2010 Notes utilizing the coupon rate of 5% which were issued on July 27, 2010 and the interest rate swap agreements as discussed above under the section “Interest Rate Swap Agreements, Forward Freight Agreements and Currency Swap Agreements.” The following table also incorporates the future lease payments associated with the current lease agreement as well at the new lease agreement entered into effective April 4, 2011. Refer to Note 19 – Commitments and Contingencies for further information regarding the terms of the current and new lease agreements.

(1) Represents the nine-month period ending December 31, 2011.

(2) The timing of this obligation is based on the actual or estimated delivery dates for the anticipated delivery of vessels as provided by the seller of the respective vessels.

(3) On May 9, 2011, $20.0 million was drawn down by GS&T in order to fund the purchase of the Genco Avra, which is expected to be delivered on or about May 12, 2011.

Interest expense has been estimated using the fixed hedge rate for the effective period and notional amount of the debt which is effectively hedged and 0.3125% for the portion of the debt that has no designated swap against it, plus the applicable bank margin of 2.00% for the 2007 Credit Facility and 3.00% for the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility and the amended 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility. We are obligated to pay certain commitment fees in connection with all of our credit facilities, which have been reflected within interest and borrowing fees.

Capital Expenditures

We make capital expenditures from time to time in connection with our vessel acquisitions. Excluding Baltic Trading’s vessels, our fleet currently consists of nine Capesize drybulk carriers, eight Panamax drybulk carriers, 17 Supramax drybulk carriers, six Handymax drybulk carriers and ten Handysize drybulk carriers. Baltic Trading’s fleet currently consists of two Capesize drybulk carriers, four Supramax drybulk carriers and three Handysize drybulk carriers.

In addition to acquisitions that we may undertake in future periods, we will incur additional expenditures due to special surveys and drydockings. We estimate our drydocking costs and scheduled off-hire days for our fleet through 2012 to be:

Year |  | Estimated Drydocking Cost |  | Estimated Off-hire Days |
|  | (U.S. dollars in millions) |  |  |
2011 (April 1- December 31, 2011) |  | $ | 6.9 |  | 220 |
2012 |  | $ | 11.9 |  | 385 |

The costs reflected are estimates based on drydocking our vessels in China. We estimate that each drydock will result in 20 days of off-hire. Actual costs will vary based on various factors, including where the drydockings are actually performed. Three of Baltic Trading’s Supramax drybulk carriers that are drydocking during 2012 are anticipated to complete the required maintenance in only fifteen days. We expect to fund these costs with cash from operations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, we incurred a total of $0.6 million and $1.6 million of drydocking costs, respectively.

We estimate that eleven of our vessels will be drydocked in the remainder of 2011. An additional 20 of our vessels, including three of Baltic Trading’s vessels, will be drydocked in 2012.

Refer to “Contractual Obligations” above for the remaining purchase price of vessels that we have agreed to purchase from Metrostar.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Inflation

Inflation has only a moderate effect on our expenses given current economic conditions. In the event that significant global inflationary pressures appear, these pressures would increase our operating, voyage, general and administrative, and financing costs.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no changes or updates to the critical accounting policies as disclosed in the 2010 10-K, with the exception of the accounting policies noted below.

Vessels and Depreciation

We record the value of our vessels at their cost (which includes acquisition costs directly attributable to the vessel and expenditures made to prepare the vessel for its initial voyage) less accumulated depreciation. We depreciate our drybulk vessels on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, estimated to be 25 years from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard. Depreciation is based on cost less the estimated residual scrap value. Effective January 1, 2011, we increased the estimated scrap value of the vessels from $175/lwt to $245/lwt prospectively based on the 15-year average scrap value of steel. This increase in the residual value of the vessels will decrease the annual depreciation charge over the remaining useful life of the vessel. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the increase in the estimated scrap value resulted in a decrease in depreciation expense of approximately $0.6 million. Similarly, an increase in the useful life of a drybulk vessel would also decrease the annual depreciation charge. Comparatively, a decrease in the useful life of a drybulk vessel or in its residual value would have the effect of increasing the annual depreciation charge. However, when regulations place limitations over the ability of a vessel to trade on a worldwide basis, we will adjust the vessel’s useful life to end at the date such regulations preclude such vessel’s further commercial use.

The carrying value each of our vessels does not represent the fair market value of such vessel or the amount we could obtain if we were to sell any of our vessels, which could be more or less. U nder U.S. GAAP, we would not record a loss if the fair market value of a vessel (excluding its charter) is below our carrying value unless and until we determine to sell that vessel or the vessel is impaired as discussed below under “Impairment of long-lived assets.” Excluding the three Bourbon vessels we resold immediately upon delivery to MEP at our cost, we have sold three of our vessels since our inception and realized a profit in each instance. However, we did determine to cancel an acquisition of six drybulk newbuildings in November 2008, incurring a $53.8 million loss from the forfeiture of our deposit and related interest.

Pursuant to our bank credit facilities, we regularly submit to the lenders valuations of our vessels on an individual charter free basis in order to evidence our compliance with the collateral maintenance covenants under our bank credit facilities. Such a valuation is not necessarily the same as the amount any vessel may bring upon sale, which may be more or less, and should not be relied upon as such. We were in compliance with the collateral maintenance covenants under our $100 Million Term Loan Facility and our $253 Million Term Loan Facility, as well as the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, at March 31, 2011, and the collateral maintenance covenant under our 2007 Credit Facility was waived at March 31, 2011, as discussed in Note 9 – Long-Term Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements. In the chart below, we list each of our vessels that represent the collateral for the aforementioned credit facilities, the year it was built, the year we acquired it, and its carrying value at March 31, 2011. We have indicated by an asterisk those vessels for which the vessel valuations for covenant compliance purposes under our bank credit facilities as of the most recent compliance testing date were lower than their carrying values at March 31, 2011. For the Genco Ocean and the Genco Bay, the compliance testing date was February 17, 2011, in accordance with the terms of the $100 Million Term Loan Facility; for all other vessels, the compliance testing date was December 31, 2010, in accordance with the terms of the applicable credit facility.

The amount by which the carrying value at March 31, 2011 of vessels marked with an asterisk exceeded the valuation of such vessels for covenant compliance purposes ranged, on an individual vessel basis, from $0.1 million to $61.6 million. The average amount by which the carrying value of the vessels marked with an asterisk exceeded the valuation of such vessels for covenant compliance purposes was $20.4 million. However, neither such valuation nor the carrying value in the table below reflects the value of long-term time charters related to some of our vessels, which can be significant.

Impairment of long-lived assets

We follow the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360-10”) which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than their carrying amounts. If indicators of impairment are present, we perform an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows to be derived from the related long-lived assets.

The current economic and market conditions, including the significant disruptions in the global credit markets, are having broad effects on participants in a wide variety of industries. Since mid-August 2008, the charter rates in the dry bulk charter market have declined significantly, and drybulk vessel values have also declined both as a result of a slowdown in the availability of global credit and the significant deterioration in charter rates.

When indicators of impairment are present and our estimate of undiscounted future cash flows for any vessel is lower than the vessel’s carrying value, the carrying value is written down, by recording a charge to operations, to the vessel’s fair market value if the fair market value is lower than the vessel’s carrying value. The Company noted that TCE revenues across its fleet were lower on average in 2010 and the first quarter of 2011 compared with 2009. This was more of a function of vessels coming off charters that had been fixed in periods of higher TCE rates as opposed to lower market rates. The Company’s management views the lower TCE rates in 2010 and the first quarter of 2011 as part of a longer term economic cycle.

The Company performed an impairment analysis at December 31, 2010 and concluded at December 31, 2010 that the future income streams expected to be earned by such vessels over their remaining operating lives on an undiscounted basis would be sufficient to recover their carrying values and that, accordingly, our vessels were not impaired under U.S. GAAP. At December 31, 2010, our estimated future undiscounted cash flows exceeded each of our vessels’ carrying values by a considerable margin (44% - 304% of carrying value). Our vessels remain fully utilized and have a relatively long average remaining useful life of approximately 19.6 years in which to recover sufficient cash flows on an undiscounted basis to recover their carrying values as of December 31, 2010. Management will continue to monitor developments in charter rates in the markets in which it participates with respect to the expectation of future rates over an extended period of time that are utilized in the analyses.

In developing estimates of future undiscounted cash flows, we make assumptions and estimates about the vessels’ future performance, with the significant assumptions being related to charter rates, fleet utilization, vessels’ operating expenses, vessels’ capital expenditures and drydocking requirements, vessels’ residual value and the estimated remaining useful life of each vessel. The assumptions used to develop estimates of future undiscounted cash flows are based on historical trends. Specifically, we utilize the rates currently in effect for the duration of their current time charters, without assuming additional profit sharing. For periods of time where our vessels are not fixed on time charters, we utilize an estimated daily time charter equivalent for our vessels’ unfixed days based on the most recent ten year historical one year time charter average. Actual equivalent drybulk shipping rates are currently lower than the estimated rate. We believe current rates have been driven by short term disruptions or seasonal issues as discussed under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis —Results of Operations—Voyage Revenues.”

The projected net operating cash flows are determined by considering the future charter revenues from existing time charters for the fixed fleet days and an estimated daily time charter equivalent for the unfixed days over the estimated remaining life of the vessel, assumed to be 25 years from the delivery of the vessel from the shipyard, reduced by brokerage commissions, expected outflows for vessels’ maintenance and vessel operating expenses (including planned drydocking and special survey expenditures) and capital expenditures adjusted annually for inflation, assuming fleet utilization of 98%. The salvage value used in the impairment test was estimated to be $175 per lightweight ton. Effective January 1, 2011, the salvage value was increased to $245 per lightweight ton which results in a decrease in annual depreciation expense. Refer to “Vessels and Depreciation” above for further information.

Although we believe that the assumptions used to evaluate potential impairment are reasonable and appropriate, such assumptions are highly subjective. There can be no assurance as to how long charter rates and vessel values will remain at their currently low levels or whether they will improve by any significant degree. Charter rates may remain at depressed levels for some time, which could adversely affect our revenue and profitability, and future assessments of vessel impairment.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest rate risk

We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. Our objective is to manage the impact of interest rate changes on our earnings and cash flow in relation to our borrowings. We held nine and ten interest rate swap agreements with DnB NOR Bank at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, to manage future interest costs and the risk associated with changing interest rates. The total notional principal amount of the swaps is $706.2 million and $756.2 million, respectively, and the swaps have specified rates and durations. Refer to the table in Note 11 — Interest Rate Swap Agreements of our condensed consolidated financial statements which summarizes the interest rate swaps in place as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

The swap agreements with effective dates prior to March 31, 2011 synthetically convert variable rate debt to fixed rate debt at the fixed interest rate of swap plus the applicable margin of 2.00% as discussed as discussed in the “2007 Credit Facility” section of Note 9 — Long-Term Debt of our condensed consolidated financial statements.

The total liability associated with the swaps at March 31, 2011 is $36.1 million, of which $13.6 million is current, and $43.3 million at December 31, 2010, of which $4.4 is current, and is presented as the fair value of derivatives on the balance sheet. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company has accumulated other comprehensive (deficit) income (“AOCI”) of ($35.9) million and ($43.2) million, respectively, related to the effectively hedged portion of the swaps. Hedge ineffectiveness associated with the interest rate swaps resulted in a minimal amount of other (expense) income during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010. At March 31, 2011, ($25.1) million of AOCI is expected to be reclassified into income over the next 12 months associated with interest rate derivatives.

We are subject to market risks relating to changes in LIBOR rates because we have significant amounts of floating rate debt outstanding. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, we paid LIBOR plus 2.00% on the 2007 Credit Facility for the debt in excess of any designated swap’s notional amount for such swap’s effective period. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we also paid LIBOR plus 3.00% on the outstanding debt under the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, the $253 Million Term Loan Facility and the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility. There was no interest expense incurred on outstanding debt related to the three aforementioned credit facilities as they were not entered into until the second and third quarters of 2010. A 1% increase in LIBOR would result in an increase of $2.2 million in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011, considering the increase would be only on the unhedged portion of the debt.

Derivative financial instruments

As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we held nine and ten interest rate swap agreements, respectively, with DnB NOR Bank to manage interest costs and the risk associated with changing interest rates. The total notional principal amount of the swaps is $706.2 million and $756.2 million, respectively, and the swaps have specified rates and durations. Refer to the table in Note 11 — Interest Rate Swap Agreements of our condensed consolidated financial statements, which summarizes the interest rate swaps in place as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

The differential to be paid or received for these swap agreements is recognized as an adjustment to interest expense as incurred. The interest rate differential pertaining to the interest rate swaps for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $7.3 million and $7.6 million, respectively. The Company is currently utilizing cash flow hedge accounting for the swaps whereby the effective portion of the change in value of the swaps is reflected as a component of AOCI. The ineffective portion is recognized as other (expense) income, which is a component of other (expense) income. If for any period of time we did not designate the swaps for hedge accounting, the change in the value of the swap agreements prior to designation would be recognized as other (expense) income.

Amounts receivable or payable arising at the settlement of hedged interest rate swaps are deferred and amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the period of interest rate exposure provided the designated liability continues to exist. Amounts receivable or payable arising at the settlement of unhedged interest rate swaps are reflected as other (expense) income and is listed as a component of other (expense) income.

Refer to “Interest rate risk” section above for further information regarding the interest rate swap agreements.

Currency and exchange rates risk

The international shipping industry’s functional currency is the U.S. Dollar. Virtually all of our revenues and most of our operating costs are in U.S. Dollars. We incur certain operating expenses in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, and the foreign exchange risk associated with these operating expenses is immaterial.

As part of our business strategy, we may enter into short-term forward currency contracts to protect ourselves from the risk arising from the fluctuation in the exchange rate associated with the cost basis of the Jinhui shares.

Investments

We hold an investment in Jinhui of $55.1 million, which is classified as available for sale under Accounting Standards Codification 320-10, Investments — Debt and Equity Securities (“ASC 320-10”). The investment is classified as a noncurrent asset based on our intent to hold the investment at each reporting date. The investments that are classified as available for sale are subject to risk of changes in market value, which if determined to be impaired (other than temporarily impaired), could result in realized impairment losses. The Company reviews the carrying value of such investments on a quarterly basis to determine if any valuation adjustments are appropriate under ASC 320-10. We will continue to evaluate the investment on a quarterly basis to determine the likelihood of any further significant adverse effects on the fair value. For the quarter ended March 31, 2011, we have not deemed our investment to be impaired. In the event we determine that the Jinhui investment is subject to any impairment, the amount of the impairment would be reclassified from AOCI and recorded as a loss in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the amount of the impairment.

ITEM 4. |  | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our President and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: |  | OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. |  | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time the Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of its business, principally personal injury and property casualty claims. Such claims, even if lacking merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. The Company is not aware of any legal proceedings or claims that it believes will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company, its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. |  | RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the 2010 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. Below is updated information for the following risk factor contained in the 2010 10-K:

The current global economic downturn may continue to negatively impact our business.

Due to the current prolonged weakness in drybulk shipping rates and borrowings we expect to make under for our remaining three vessel acquisitions, we may not meet the maximum leverage ratio covenant under our 2007 Credit Facility, our $253 Million Term Loan Facility, and our $100 Million Term Loan Facility at some point during 2011 if these market conditions continue. The covenant limits the ratio of our net debt to EBITDA to a maximum of 5.5 to 1. While we are seeking waivers or modifications to

our credit agreements and may also seek to raise additional capital through equity or debt offerings or selling assets (including vessels), we cannot be certain that we will accomplish any such actions. Absent such waivers or modifications, if we do not comply with these covenants and fail to cure our non-compliance following notice and expiration of applicable cure periods, we may be in default of one or more of our credit facilities and the Indenture for our 2010 Notes. As a result, some or all of our indebtedness could be declared immediately due and payable, and we may not be able to borrow further under our credit facilities. As a result, we may experience a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
