Danaos Corporation operates as a global owner and operator of containerships and drybulk vessels. As of February 25, 2026, the company managed a fleet of 75 containerships and 11 Capesize drybulk carriers, with an additional 27 containerships and 4 drybulk carriers under construction. Danaos primarily charters its containerships to major liner companies on multi-year, fixed-rate contracts, aiming for stable cash flows and high utilization. Its drybulk vessels are employed in the spot market through short-term time charters and voyage charters. The company's strategy involves expanding its fleet through newbuild orders and selective secondhand acquisitions, while also venturing into the LNG sector through a strategic partnership for the Alaska LNG Project.

Operating revenues are driven by the number of vessels in the fleet, the duration of charters, and the daily charter hire rates, which are influenced by supply and demand dynamics in the containership and drybulk charter markets. Revenues are also impacted by the company's decisions on vessel acquisitions and dispositions.
