Genco Rejects Diana Shipping Bid and Counters with Own Acquisition Proposal
New York, Wednesday, 14 January 2026.
On January 13, 2026, Genco Shipping & Trading unanimously rejected an unsolicited $20.60 per share takeover proposal from Diana Shipping, asserting the bid undervalues the company and lacks financial certainty. In a bold strategic turn, Genco’s Board countered by proposing to acquire Diana Shipping instead. Genco argues its stronger balance sheet—evidenced by a lower daily cash flow breakeven of $10,000 compared to Diana’s $16,000—positions it as the superior acquirer. While Diana holds a 14.8% stake in Genco and claims financing support, Genco contends a reverse combination would better serve shareholders by creating a market-leading fleet of 83 drybulk vessels under more efficient management.
