Nordic American Tankers Limited

Nordic American Tankers Limited

Nordic American Tankers Limited (NAT) is a Bermuda‑incorporated shipping company that owns and operates Suezmax crude oil tankers, listed in the US under the ticker NAT. With a market capitalisation around $735m, NAT generates revenue by chartering its vessels on spot and time charters, so its earnings are closely tied to freight rates, global oil demand and tanker supply dynamics. The company has historically returned cash to shareholders through dividend distributions, but payouts depend on free cash flow and board decisions. Investors should note the cyclical nature of shipping: rates can swing significantly with global trade flows, seasonal demand and changes in fleet capacity. NAT is exposed to operational risks (fuel costs, vessel upkeep), regulatory shifts and macro factors such as oil prices and geopolitical events. This summary is educational only and not personalised financial advice; prospective investors should conduct their own research and consider their risk tolerance and investment objectives.
