Also, expenditures in the leasing platform, and funding of new vessels could also serve as net sales catalysts in the coming years. I did appreciate also that CMRE recently classified new vessels as held for sale, which may bring more cash in hand to refinance the balance sheet. Recent dividend growth, and the ongoing repurchase of shares at close to $9.5-$10 also appears beneficial. There are some risks from the total amount of debt, rate changes in the industry, or even the action of competitors. However, I do believe that the company is undervalued at the current stock price.
