Adjusted net loss came out to USD$23.2 million for the quarter, representing an adjusted net loss of USD$0.12 per basic and diluted share. Total operating revenues were reported at USD$170 million.

Expansion of Contracts
The third quarter of fiscal 2021 saw FRO stock estimate spot TCE on a load-to discharge basis of USD$14,000 contracted for 70% of the total vessel days for VLCCs. USD$9,800 were contracted for 64% of vessel days for Suezmax tankers, while USD$11,800 were contracted for 63% of vessel days of LR2 tankers. The company expects the spot TCEs for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 to be lower than the TCEs currently contracted. This is on account of the impact of ballast days at the end of the third quarter as well as current freight rates.
