With a market capitalisation of about $988.64m, SFL typically holds a diversified portfolio of vessels and seeks to generate income from charter hire and asset appreciation. The company often uses long‑term charters to provide visibility of cash flow, but earnings remain sensitive to charter rates, global trade volumes and second‑hand ship values.

Historically SFL has distributed cash to shareholders, but dividend payments are subject to earnings, liquidity and board discretion and are not guaranteed.
