What Determines Secondhand Vessel Prices?


Current Replacement Cost - Sets Upper Reference to S&P Market
(Yard Prices: Highly Unstable; Major Market Risk)

Expected Earnings - Sets Depreciation Rate


(TC Rate, Vessel Life Expectancy)

Sale Timing and Operational Specifics - Sets Exact Price


(e.g. Proximity to special survey, vessel condition )

Residual Scrap Values - Sets Floor to S&P Market


($/LDT:Limited Influence or Up-/Downside Risk)

Forward Cover (FC) is a measure of the aggregate orderbook across all sectors compared with total available global shipyard capacity and is measured in years During the 1980s and 1990s FC remained in a 1 to 2 year bound During the mid 2000s FC reached 4 years

3. SECONDHAND PRICES

Maritime Strategies International Ltd.

14

Second hand prices


All historical secondhand prices are converted into a net replacement value for the individual ship: NRV =
(2nd hand price scrap price in YoS) (Newbuilding price in YoS scrap price in YoS)

This (expressed as a %age) allows us to compare all prices over time independent of both new building and scrap prices

Secondhand Values
Secondhand prices can be expressed as Net Replacement Values
Removes the steel element and allows comparisons over time

Shape of depreciation curve is driven by earnings environment


The poorer the earnings environment the more concave the depreciation

Net Replacement Value can exceed 100% in very strong earnings environment

Concluding thoughts

Systematic approach to valuations Risks / Rewards Buy / Build now ?


MSI Asia Pte Ltd

Critical Element in decision making Based on fundamentals and Independent Future valuations permit assessment of residual risks

Charter rates affects modern ship values most New technology leads to dual/multiple markets Changes in Scrap prices > impact older tonnage

New building prices bottom out 2013 Oversupply depressing markets affect modern tonnage values more.. Secondhand could provide good opportunities distressed assets hard to find
