Tankers Crude Β· VLCC / Suezmax / Aframax / LR2 / LR1 / MR Β· 81 documents
International Seaways' 64-vessel crude tanker fleet β 28 MR, 13 Suezmax, 10 VLCC and 13 across 3 other classes β should earn about $104,530 a day in 2026Q3 and pay $7.34 a share. That is our forecast (STATED payout on MODELLED TCE), at a rate beyond the $78,345/d its dividend history covers. A fifth of those vessel-days are already fixed at rates International Seaways has disclosed; the rest are priced at 96% of the index, the share it has historically captured.
Yields annualise each quarter Γ4 at the last close, $109.99 (2026-10-16). Our model is not company guidance.
What will International Seaways pay for 2026Q3?
Stated policy: βThird consecutive quarter with a payout ratio of at least 85% of adjusted net income.β

Market context β rates, the dividend, and the price
Rates and dividend β benchmark, realized and declared
A settled quarter carries two bars: the lighter one is the fleet-weighted benchmark β what the market paid for a fleet of this class mix β and the solid one is what this fleet actually earned. The gap between them is the share of the index this issuer captured. Dashed-outline bars are the model estimate β see Dividend forecast.
The line is the declared dividend per share β dashed where it is the model's estimate. Model estimate β not issuer guidance.
Forward (our model β model quarter Γ4): $29.36/yr Β· @ $109.99 (as of 2026-10-16) = 26.7% yield (spot-exposure scenario) Β· Trailing TTM $12.61/yr = 11.5%
Fleet rate β what the market pays a fleet like this one
Fleet-weighted market rate with the class benchmarks behind it: 91 points, 2025-01-03 to 2026-10-16; INSW fleet-weighted latest 566,439.00; VLCC benchmark latest 711,081.00; SUEZMAX benchmark latest 540,621.00; AFRAMAX benchmark latest 288,740.50.
Latest $566,439/day at 2026-10-16 (-6.9% on the prior print), weighted 10ΓVLCC Β· 13ΓSUEZMAX Β· 4ΓAFRAMAX.
The thick line prices this fleet's own class mix at the market's rate each week; the pale lines are the class benchmarks behind it. Each class benchmark is a median across every route mapped to that class, not a single assessment. A laden-leg benchmark runs hotter than a fleet earns β ballast days, waiting time, TC-out legs and off-hire all dilute it β so this is market direction, not revenue. What this fleet actually captured is the panel above.
Price and the yield it implied
Latest: 2026-Q3 declared $5.05/share on 2026-08-10, 22.4% annualised against the $90.40 close that day.
The continuous line is the daily closing price in dollars β the raw close, not a dividend-adjusted one, which would back-adjust away the very payouts being measured. The second line carries 3 declared dividends and is marked nowhere else β each annualised ×4 and divided by the close on, or last before, the day it was declared. A quarter with no dividend has no mark. The segments between the marks connect them; they are not measured. This is what the share yielded at the time, not what those dividends would yield at today's price. Prices start 2025-08-29, so anything declared before then is not plotted.
How we got the number
How to read this page
Every figure here is built the same way: the fleet's vessel-days are priced at the rate its classes earned, costs and debt service come off, and what is left is measured against the dividend the company actually declared. Nothing is estimated where it can be sourced, and a number that cannot be sourced is withheld rather than filled in. The full method, and the rates behind it β
Where INSW departs from that
- The market benchmark prices 27 of this fleet's 64 vessels β the classes it has an assessment for. The rate the fleet actually earned covers all of them, so the two are not measured over the same ships.
- Rate 1.3x the highest it has earned ($78,345/d).
- VLCC: index realized at 96% β this issuer captured 96% of the index across 4 closed quarters (range 81%-108%; 1 on its fleet TCE less its printed time charters; 3 on its fleet TCE, with no time-charter days on file to remove); the open share is priced at that fraction, not at the index.
- VLCC: using issuer guidance 29% fixed @ $214,216/day β CARRIED from 2026Q2: no newer book on file for this quarter β day-weighted across its charters: VLCC time charters (Q2 2026 fixed book, carried) $214,216/day x 274 days.

Guided rates are issuer-booked cover for 2026Q3 blended with Gibson and route-basket spot medians for the open days.
TC = vessels on TC-out with initial period >12 mo at 2025Q4 quarter-end; shorter charters read as spot.
Bear uses booked coverage only; Base adds open vessels at this issuer's realized share of the latest Gibson median; Bull reruns them at the same share of the recent 3-month peak index.
