The decrease in the loss from discontinued operations is primarily attributable to the impairment loss of $5.3 million that was recorded in the first quarter in respect of the Mayfair.Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $5.3 million in the quarter. The Company used $0.9 million in operating activities, received $12.5million from the sale of the Mayfair, used $12.6 million to repay loan facilities and paid $4.3 million to shareholders.For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company reports a net loss

The decrease in net income is primarily attributable to reduced revenue from the Battersea and the Golden Zhejiang following the time charter terminations in July 2012 and the lower rates these vessels are now earning due to the current market.

The average daily TCE earned by the Capesize vessels in the six months ended June 30, 2013 is $17,400 compared with $22,300 in the six months ended June 30, 2012.
