Forward guidance
CoolCo anticipates a moderate increase in TCE rate and time and charter voyage revenues for the third quarter compared to the second quarter, driven by full charter coverage and improved drydock performance.

- Newbuilds expected to be delivered later this year, with one already secured for a 14-year charter.
- Long-term sector prospects remain strongly supported by new liquefaction projects increasing LNG volumes.

Headwinds
- Continuing market volatility and geopolitical uncertainty.
- Seasonally quieter months impacting chartering activity.
- Reduced unrealized gain on mark-to-market interest rate swaps impacting net income.
- Legacy steam turbine vessels facing reduced utilization and future prospects.
