The company traces its shipping roots to 1975, when Captain Vassilis C. Constantakopoulos founded Costamare Shipping Company S.A. Costamare Inc. was formed as a containership-owning company in 2008 and completed its initial public offering on the New York Stock Exchange in 2010. Konstantinos V. Konstantakopoulos, the founder's son, serves as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and has led the company as CEO since 1998. The company's core business is owning, acquiring, chartering, and managing commercial vessels. Its containership fleet is chartered primarily to liner companies, which use the vessels to transport containers containing manufactured goods, consumer products, industrial inputs, agricultural commodities, and other international cargo. Costamare also owns and charters dry bulk vessels. These ships transport commodities such as grain, coal, minerals, and other bulk cargoes for customers around the world. Based on the supplied company information, Costamare had approximately 79 containerships and 38 dry bulk vessels as of February 24, 2026, although investor materials and fleet counts can vary depending on the reporting date and whether vessels under construction, sold, or otherwise committed are included. Costamare's revenue is generated mainly from vessel charter hire. The company generally incurs substantial costs for vessel acquisition, newbuilding investments, financing, interest expense, depreciation, insurance, maintenance, crew, technical management, dry-docking, regulatory compliance, and brokerage or commercial-management activities. The cost structure is capital intensive: ships represent the principal assets, while debt and equity financing are used to fund acquisitions and fleet renewal. Capital expenditure can therefore fluctuate significantly when the company purchases secondhand vessels, orders new ships, or performs major dry-dock work. Operating results are also sensitive to charter rates, vessel utilization, fuel and operating expenses, interest rates, ship values, trade volumes, port conditions, geopolitical events, and changes in environmental regulation. The supplied trailing-period financial indicators show a business with substantial operating profitability, including an EBITDA margin of approximately 64.5 percent, an EBIT margin of approximately 48.2 percent, and a net profit margin of approximately 40.4 percent. The same data indicates meaningful leverage, with debt-to-equity of approximately 0.68 and net debt to EBITDA of approximately 2.11. Costamare also reported a trailing dividend of about $0.47 per share and a dividend yield of roughly 3.2 percent based on the supplied market data. These figures are market-data snapshots rather than guarantees of future performance. Costamare's strategic objectives include maintaining a modern and commercially competitive fleet, securing attractive charter employment, preserving access to financing, managing leverage, returning capital to shareholders, and expanding selectively when vessel valuations and charter-market conditions are favorable. Its principal risks include cyclical shipping markets, charter-party counterparty risk, vessel obsolescence, environmental rules such as emissions requirements, refinancing needs, fluctuations in asset values, and global economic or geopolitical disruptions. The broader reported workforce is approximately 1,880 people, while some databases report only corporate or shore-based personnel; the larger figure generally reflects the company's wider maritime workforce.
