For the quarter, revenue was $39.5 million, down from the $50.0 million in the same period the previous month. Bottom line swung to a loss of $9.6 million ($0.12 per diluted share), against a profit of $5.0 million ($0.06) in Q4 2012.

The company attributed the weaker results largely to reduced time charter rates.
