DLNG Dynagas LNG Partners LP
Price Chart
Executive Summary
Dynagas LNG Partners LP reported Q1 2026 results with net income of $17.4 million ($0.43 per common unit), up 27.9% YoY, but adjusted net income fell 13.3% to $12.4 million due to unscheduled repairs and lower charter rates on one vessel. The company maintained its $0.05/common unit distribution and $0.5625/preferred unit distribution, while disclosing that EU and UK sanctions on Russian LNG (effective Jan 1, 2027) threaten 36% of 2025 revenue from two Yamal charters. The Clean Energy was delivered on a new higher-rate charter with Rio Grande LNG in April 2026.
Actionable Insight
The Clean Energy charter upgrade to Rio Grande at a higher daily rate is a near-term positive, but the EU/UK sanctions cliff on Yamal charters (36% of revenue) creates material downside risk from Jan 2027. Monitor for any charterer disputes or early termination of Yamal charters, and watch for progress on removing EU/UK nexus from those vessels. The preferred distribution remains well-covered by operating cash flow.
