In the report, the analyst notes:

"For the first quarter of 2010, the Company reported net income of $5.7 million, or $0.01 basic and diluted earnings per share.  Included in the first quarter 2010 results are various items, totaling $61.9 million, or $0.26 per share, which are described below.  Excluding these items, net income amounted to $67.6 million, or $0.27 per share.

"The dry bulk shipping sector faces an oversupply issue as waning Chinese imports and other demand catalysts weigh on day rates.  The pricing benchmark, Baltic Dry Index (BDI), fell for the 19th straight session recently in London, its longest losing streak since April of last year, according to Bloomberg.  The BDI is now at its lowest level since February, and it has erased most of the late-2009 rally that ultimately doubled its value from near 2,100 in September to more than 4,600 in November."
