About Dorian LPG

Dorian LPG hauls liquefied petroleum gas, the same fuel that fills backyard grill tanks and heats homes, across oceans for customers worldwide. The company now owns and runs 28 very large gas carriers out of its base in Stamford, Connecticut.

The case for and against

Both sides of the story, in plain English.

Bull case

Roaring Rebound
After a soft stretch for shipping rates, business snapped back hard. Revenue grew about 36% over the past year, flipping a double digit decline into real growth as demand for seaborne gas picked up again.
Massive Margins
Dorian keeps roughly 41 cents of every dollar of revenue as profit. That is an extraordinary number for any company, and it shows how much cash a tightly run fleet of 28 ships can throw off when rates cooperate.

Bear case

Cyclical Currents
Dorian does not set the price of shipping. Rates have already whipsawed once, dragging revenue down roughly 37% in the prior stretch before this rebound, and the same swing can happen again in a matter of quarters.
Fleet Focus
All 28 tankers do one job, moving one product. There is no second business to cushion a downturn, so a slowdown in China or a shift in how much gas producers pump hits the entire company at once.
