Danaos continues to strengthen its sustainability approach by integrating new insights and ESG principles into its strategy and operations, with the objective of generating long-term sustainable value for all stakeholders.

As the maritime industry undergoes profound change, Danaos continues to evolve its sustainability approach, building on a strong foundation while responding to shifting stakeholder expectations, emerging industry practices and an increasingly complex regulatory environment. By integrating sustainability into our strategy and risk management, Danaos ensures that environmental stewardship, social responsibility and robust governance are embedded in the way we think, make decisions and operate across every level of the organization, serving as core drivers of our growth and competitiveness. This approach enables us to pursue responsible growth while contributing to the maritime sector's transition to a lower-carbon future.

We are proud of the progress achieved on our ESG journey. Having first met our 2030 carbon intensity reduction target in 2024—six years ahead of schedule—and continuing to outperform this level in 2025, we remain on track to deliver on our broader environmental, social and governance commitments.

Our decarbonization strategy is built on two complementary priorities: enhancing the efficiency of our existing fleet and investing in next-generation vessels designed for future fuels. Our newbuilding program underscores our commitment to alternative fuel readiness and strengthens our long-term position as the energy transition accelerates. At the same time, we are expanding our presence in the energy segment, leveraging our maritime expertise to support the safe and efficient LNG transportation and broaden our role across the global energy value chain.
