About the Company 

Taylor Maritime Limited is a shipping company listed under the equity shares (commercial companies) category of the Official List, with its shares trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange since May 2021.  Between May 2021 and February 2025, the Company was listed under the closed-ended investment funds category of the Official List.  

As announced on 20 March 2026, the Company is pursuing a managed realisation of the Company's assets, prioritising the maximisation of proceeds from vessel sales and future returns of capital to shareholders whilst maintaining sufficient working capital for the Company's operations.  The timing of disposals and subsequent returns of capital will be influenced by market conditions and commercial factors.

The Company, through its subsidiaries, currently has an owned fleet of 6 dry bulk vessels consisting of 4 Handysize vessels and 2 Supra/Ultramax vessels.  The Company also has one vessel under JV agreement and one vessel in its chartered in fleet.  The ships are employed utilising a mix of time charter and voyage charter to optimise fleet earnings and cargo coverage.

About Geared Vessels

Geared vessels are characterised by their own cargo loading equipment. The Handysize and Supra/Ultramax market segments are particularly attractive, given the flexibility, versatility and port accessibility of these vessels which carry necessity goods - principally food and products related to infrastructure building - ensuring broad diversification of fleet activity and stability of earnings through the cycle.
