ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included herein. Among other things, those financial statements include more detailed information regarding the basis of presentation for the following information. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and are presented in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated. The following discussion contains forward‐looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, such as those set forth under "Item 1A—Risk Factors," "Forward-Looking Statements" and elsewhere in this report, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward‐looking statements.

Overview

We are a Marshall Islands corporation, headquartered in the United States, focused on owning and operating VLGCs. Our fleet currently consists of twenty-five VLGCs, including one Dual-fuel ECO VLGC, nineteen ECO VLGCs, one modern VLGC, three time chartered-in Dual-fuel ECO Panamax design VLGCs, and one time chartered-in ECO VLGC.

Our Dual-fuel ECO VLGC was delivered to us in March 2023. Our nineteen ECO VLGCs, which incorporate fuel efficiency and emission-reducing technologies and certain custom features, were acquired by us for an aggregate purchase price of $1.4 billion and delivered to us between July 2014 and February 2016, seventeen of which were delivered during calendar year 2015 or later and fifteen, of which, are scrubber-equipped. Three of our four time chartered-in VLGCs are dual-fuel Panamax design and one of the time chartered-in VLGCs is scrubber-equipped. On November 24, 2023, we entered into an agreement for a newbuilding VLGC/AC, with a cargo carrying capacity of 93,000 cbm that can transport LPG or ammonia and is expected to be delivered from Hanwha Ocean Co. Ltd. in the second calendar quarter of 2026.

On April 1, 2015, Dorian and MOL Energia began operations of the Helios Pool, which entered into pool participation agreements for the purpose of establishing and operating, as charterer, under a variable rate time charter to be entered into with owners or disponent owners of VLGCs, a commercial pool of VLGCs whereby revenues and expenses are shared. The vessels entered into the Helios Pool may operate either in the spot market, pursuant to COAs or on time charters of two years' duration or less (unless agreed otherwise). As of May 23, 2025, all twenty-five of our VLGCs,including the four time chartered-in vessels, were deployed in the Helios Pool.

Our customers, either directly or through the Helios Pool, include or have included global energy companies such as Exxon Mobil Corp., Chevron Corp., China International United Petroleum & Chemicals Co., Ltd., Royal Dutch Shell plc, Equinor ASA, Total S.A., and Energy Transfer Partners, commodity traders such as Glencore plc, Itochu Corporation, Bayegan Group, Gunvor Group, and the Vitol Group and importers such as E1 Corp., Indian Oil Corporation, SK Gas Co. Ltd., and Astomos Energy Corporation, or subsidiaries of the foregoing. For the year ended March 31, 2025, the Helios Pool accounted for 97% of our total revenues. No other individual charterer accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues. Within the Helios Pool, one charterer represented more than 10% of net pool revenues—related party. For the year ended March 31, 2024, the Helios Pool accounted for 95% of our total revenues. No other individual charterer accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues. Within the Helios Pool, one charterer represented more than 10% of net pool revenues—related party. For the year ended March 31, 2023, the Helios Pool accounted for 94% of our total revenues. No other individual charterer accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues. Within the Helios Pool, two charterers each represented more than 10% of net pool revenues—related party. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—We operate exclusively in the LPG shipping industry. Due to the general lack of industry diversification, adverse developments in the LPG shipping industry may adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors—We expect to be dependent on a limited number of customers for a material part of our revenues, and failure of such customers to meet their obligations could cause us to suffer losses or negatively impact our results of operations and cash flows.”

We continue to pursue a balanced chartering strategy by employing our vessels on a mix of multi-year time charters, some of which may include a profit-sharing component, shorter-term time charters, spot market voyages and

COAs. None of our vessels is currently on a fixed time charter outside of the Helios Pool. See “Item 1. Business—Our Fleet” above for more information.

Recent Developments

Executive Officer Compensation Matters

On May 15, 2025, we announced that the Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of our Board of Directors elected to adopt certain performance measures under the Company’s incentive compensation plan going forward to structure pay practices for its named executive officers to more closely match the Company’s publicly traded peers and adopt best practices by using pre-established performance criteria and potential payouts.

The overall result of these changes is an executive compensation program that clearly defines and discloses performance metrics, thereby enabling shareholders to more directly observe the alignment between executive pay and Company performance. While the Committee always considered a broad range of metrics in its deliberations to determine executive pay, the pre-established performance criteria provides a heightened level of transparency and underscores the Company’s commitment to best-in-class corporate governance.

More specifically, the revised approach further promotes the Company’s long-term operating plan and business strategy, provides competitive compensation incentives, and mitigates the possibility of excessive risk-taking by discouraging disproportionate focus on any single performance measure. The formulas approved by the Committee are as follows:

Additional information relating to compensation paid in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 or earned by each of the Company’s named executive officers in respect of the same period will be included in the Company’s Proxy Statement to be filed with the Commission with respect to the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

Dividend

On May 2, 2025, we announced that our Board of Directors has declared an irregular cash dividend of $0.50 per share of the Company’s common stock totaling $21.3 million. The dividend is payable on or about May 30, 2025 to all shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 16, 2025.

Vessel Deployment—Spot Voyages, Time Charters, COAs, and Pooling Arrangements

We seek to employ our vessels in a manner that maximizes fleet availability and earnings upside through our chartering strategy in line with our goal of maximizing shareholder value and returning capital to shareholders when appropriate, taking into account fluctuations in freight rates in the market and our own views on the direction of those rates in the future. As of May 23, 2025, all twenty-five of our VLGCs, including the four time chartered-in vessels, were employed in the Helios Pool, which includes time charters with a term of less than two years unless otherwise agreed.

A spot market voyage charter is generally a contract to carry a specific cargo from a load port to a discharge port for an agreed upon freight per ton of cargo or a specified total amount. Under spot market voyage charters, we pay voyage expenses such as port and fuel costs. A time charter is generally a contract to charter a vessel for a fixed period of time at a set daily or monthly rate. Under time charters, the charterer pays voyage expenses such as port and fuel costs. Vessels operating on time charters provide more predictable cash flows, but can yield lower profits than vessels operating in the spot market during periods characterized by favorable market conditions. Vessels operating in the spot market generate revenues that are less predictable but may enable us to capture increased profits during periods of improvements in the freight market although we are exposed to the risk of a decline in the freight market and lower vessel availability. Pools generally consist of a number of vessels which may be owned by a number of different ship owners which operate as a single marketing entity in an effort to produce freight efficiencies. Pools typically employ experienced commercial charterers and operators who have close working relationships with customers and brokers while technical management is typically the responsibility of each ship owner. Under pool arrangements, vessels typically enter the pool under a time charter agreement whereby the cost of bunkers and port expenses are borne by the charterer (i.e., the pool) and operating costs, including crews, maintenance and insurance are typically paid by the owner of the vessel. Pools, in return, typically negotiate charters with customers primarily in the spot market. Since the members of a pool typically share in the revenue generated by the entire group of vessels in the pool, and since pools operate primarily in the spot market, including the pool in which we participate, the revenue earned by vessels placed in spot market related pools is subject to the fluctuations of the spot market and the ability of the pool manager to effectively employ its fleet. We believe that vessel pools can provide cost-effective commercial management activities for a group of similar class vessels and potentially result in lower waiting times and higher earnings.

Contracts of Affreightment relate to the carriage of multiple cargoes over the same or several routes at pre-agreed terms, volumes and periods and enables the COA holder to nominate and lift cargoes, without controlling tonnage themselves or having their own vessel in position. COAs are usually based on voyage terms, where all of the vessel's operating, voyage and capital costs are borne by the ship owner.

On April 1, 2015, Dorian and MOL Energia began operation of the Helios Pool, which is a pool of VLGC vessels. We believe that the operation of certain of our VLGCs in this pool allows us to achieve better market coverage. Vessels entered into the Helios Pool are commercially managed jointly by Dorian LPG (DK) ApS, our wholly-owned subsidiary, and MOL Energia. The members of the Helios Pool share in the net pool revenues generated by the entire group of vessels in the pool, weighted according to certain technical vessel characteristics, and net pool revenues (see Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included herein) are distributed as variable rate time charter hire to each participant. The vessels entered into the Helios Pool may operate either in the spot market, COAs, or on time charters of two years' duration or less. As of May 23, 2025, the Helios Pool operated twenty-eight VLGCs, including all twenty-five vessels from our fleet and three MOL Energia vessels.

Important Financial and Operational Terms and Concepts

We use a variety of financial and operational terms and concepts in the evaluation of our business and operations including the following:

Vessel Revenues. Our revenues are driven primarily by the number of vessels in our fleet, the number of days during which our vessels operate and the daily rates that our vessels earn under our charters, which, in turn, are affected by a number of factors, including levels of demand and supply in the LPG shipping industry; the age, condition and specifications of our vessels; the duration of our charters; the timing of when any profit-sharing arrangements are earned; the amount of time that we spend positioning our vessels; the availability of our vessels, which is related to the amount of time that our vessels spend in drydock undergoing repairs and the amount of time required to perform necessary maintenance or upgrade work; and other factors affecting rates for LPG vessels.

We generate revenue by providing seaborne transportation services to customers pursuant to three types of contractual relationships:

Pooling Arrangements. As from April 1, 2015, we began operation of the Helios Pool. Net pool revenues—related party for each vessel is determined in accordance with the profit-sharing terms specified within the pool agreement for the Helios Pool. In particular, the pool manager aggregates the revenues and voyage expenses of all of the pool participants and Helios Pool general and administrative expenses and distributes the net earnings to participants based on:

● number of days the vessel was on-hire in the Helios Pool in the period.

For the years ended March 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, 97%, 95% and 94% of our revenue, respectively, was generated through the Helios Pool as net pool revenues—related party.

Voyage Charters. A voyage charter, or spot charter, is a contract for transportation of a specified cargo between two or more designated ports. This type of charter is priced at a current or "spot" market rate, typically on a price per ton of product carried. Under voyage charters, we are responsible for all of the voyage expenses in addition to providing the crewing and other vessel operating services. Revenues for voyage charters are more volatile as they are typically tied to prevailing market rates at the time of the voyage. Our gross revenue under voyage charters is generally higher than under comparable time charters so as to compensate us for our bearing all voyage expenses. As a result, our revenue and voyage expenses may vary significantly depending on our mix of time charters and voyage charters. None of our revenue was generated pursuant to voyage charters from our VLGCs outside of the Helios Pool for the years ended March 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023.

Time Charters. A time charter is a contract under which a vessel is chartered for a defined period of time at a fixed daily or monthly rate. Under time charters, we are responsible for providing crewing and other vessel operating services, the cost of which is intended to be covered by the fixed rate, while the customer is responsible for substantially all of the voyage expenses, including bunker fuel consumption, port expenses and canal tolls. LPG is frequently transported under a time charter arrangement, with terms ranging from one to seven years. In addition, we may also have profit-sharing arrangements with some of our customers that provide for additional payments above a floor monthly rate (usually up to an agreed ceiling) based on the actual, average daily rate quoted by the Baltic Exchange for VLGCs on one or more of the benchmark routes over an agreed time period converted to a time charter equivalent (“TCE”) monthly rate. For the years ended March 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, approximately 2.3%, 4.6% and 5.8%, respectively, of our revenue was generated pursuant to time charters from our VLGCs not in the Helios Pool.

Other Revenues, net. Other revenues, net represent income from charterers, including the Helios Pool, relating to reimbursement of expenses such as costs for security guards and war risk insurance for voyages operating in

Table of Contents

high-risk areas. For the years ended March 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, approximately 1.0%, 0.3% and 0.6%, respectively, of our revenue was generated pursuant to other revenues, net.

Of these revenue streams, revenue generated from voyage charter agreements is further described in our revenue recognition policy as described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements. Revenue generated from pools and time charters is accounted for as revenue earned under the requirements of financial accounting and reporting for lessees and lessors as described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements.

Calendar Days. We define calendar days as the total number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet was owned or operated pursuant to a bareboat charter. Calendar days are an indicator of the size of the fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of expenses that are recorded during that period.

Time Chartered-in Days. We define time chartered-in days as the aggregate number of days in a period during which we time chartered-in vessels from third parties. Time chartered-in days are an indicator of the size of the fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of charter hire expenses that are recorded during that period.

Available Days. We define available days as the sum of calendar days and time chartered-in days (including waiting time) collectively representing our commercially-managed vessels, less aggregate off hire days associated with both unscheduled and scheduled maintenance, which include major repairs, drydockings, vessel upgrades or special or intermediate surveys. We use available days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period that our vessels should be capable of generating revenues. Note that during the year ended March 31, 2025, we have updated our definition of available days to include unscheduled maintenance as we believe it is more reflective of industry practice and more consistent with the practice used in the Helios Pool, which now accounts for more than 95% of our revenue.

Drydocking. We must periodically drydock each of our vessels for any major repairs and maintenance and for inspection of the underwater parts of the vessel that cannot be performed while the vessels are operating and for any modifications to comply with industry certification or governmental requirements. The classification societies provide guidelines applicable to LPG vessels relating to extended intervals for drydocking. Generally, we are required to drydock a vessel under 15 years of age once every five years unless an extension of the drydocking to seven and one-half years is granted by the classification society and the vessel is not older than 20 years of age. We capitalize costs directly associated with the drydockings that extend the life of the vessel and amortize these costs on a straight-line basis over the period through the date the next survey is scheduled to become due under the "Deferral" method permitted under U.S. GAAP. Costs incurred during the drydocking period which relate to routine repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. The number of drydockings undertaken in a given period and the nature of the work performed determine the level of drydocking expenditures.

Time Charter Equivalent Rate. TCE rate is a non-U.S. GAAP measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel. TCE rate is a shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period‐to‐period changes in a shipping company’s performance despite changes in the mix of charter types (such as time charters, voyage charters) under which the vessels may be employed between the periods and is a factor in management’s business decisions and is useful to investors in understanding our underlying performance and business trends. Our method of calculating TCE rate is to divide revenue net of voyage expenses by available days for the relevant time period, which may not be calculated the same by other companies. Note that we have updated the denominator of our calculation of TCE to be our updated definition of available days (see note 4 above) as we believe it is more reflective of industry practice and more consistent with the practice used in the Helios Pool, which now accounts for more than 95% of our revenue.

Voyage Expenses. Voyage expenses are all expenses unique to a particular voyage, including bunker fuel consumption, port expenses, canal fees, charter hire commissions, war risk insurance and security costs. Voyage expenses are typically paid by us under voyage charters and by the charterer under time charters, including our VLGCs chartered to the Helios Pool. Accordingly, we generally only incur voyage expenses for our own account when performing voyage charters or during repositioning voyages between time charters for which no cargo is available or travelling to or from drydocking. We generally bear all voyage expenses under voyage charters and, as such, voyage expenses are generally

70

Table of Contents

greater under voyage charters than time charters. As a result, our voyage expenses may vary significantly depending on our mix of time charters and voyage charters.

Charter Hire Expenses. We time charter hire certain vessels from third-party owners or operators for a contracted period and rate in order to charter the vessels to our customers. Charter hire expenses include vessel operating lease expense incurred to charter-in these vessels.

Vessel Operating Expenses. Vessel operating expenses are expenses that are not unique to a specific voyage. Vessel operating expenses are paid by us under each of our charter types. Vessel operating expenses include crew wages and related costs, the costs for lubricants, insurance, expenses relating to repairs and maintenance, the cost of spares and consumable stores, tonnage taxes and other miscellaneous expenses. Our vessel operating expenses will increase with the expansion of our fleet and are subject to change because of higher crew costs, higher insurance premiums, unexpected repair expenses and general inflation. Furthermore, we expect maintenance costs will increase as our vessels age and during periods of drydock.

Daily Vessel Operating Expenses. Daily vessel operating expenses are calculated by dividing vessel operating expenses by calendar days for the relevant time period.

Depreciation and Amortization. We depreciate our vessels on a straight‐line basis using an estimated useful life of 25 years from initial delivery from the shipyard and after considering estimated salvage values.

We amortize the cost of deferred drydocking expenditures on a straight‐line basis over the period through the date the next drydocking/special survey is scheduled to become due.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses principally consist of the costs incurred in the corporate administration of the vessel and non‐vessel owning subsidiaries. We have granted restricted stock awards to certain of our officers, directors and employees that vest over various periods (see Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements included herein). Granting of restricted stock results in an increase in expenses. Stock-based compensation expense for officers, directors and employees is measured at the grant date stock price (or, if a market condition is attached to the award, at the estimated fair value of the award on grant date) and is recognized over the vesting period.

Critical Accounting Estimates

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make estimates in the application of our accounting policies based on our best assumptions, judgments and opinions. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material. Accounting estimates and assumptions discussed in this section are those that we consider to be the most critical to an understanding of our financial statements because they inherently involve significant judgments and uncertainties. For a description of our significant accounting policies, see Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included herein.

Vessel Depreciation. The cost of our vessels less their estimated residual value is depreciated on a straight‐line basis over the vessels' estimated useful lives. We estimate the useful life of each of our vessels to be 25 years from the date the vessel was originally delivered from the shipyard. Based on the current market and the types of vessels we have in our fleet, the residual values of our vessels are based upon a value of approximately $400 per lightweight ton. An increase in the useful life of our vessels or in their residual value would have the effect of decreasing the annual depreciation charge and extending it into later periods. An increase in the useful life of a vessel may occur as a result of superior vessel maintenance performed, favorable ocean going and weather conditions the vessel is subjected to, superior quality of the shipbuilding or yard, or high freight market rates, which result in owners scrapping the vessels later due to the attractive cash flows. A decrease in the useful life of our vessels or in their residual value would have the effect of increasing the annual depreciation charge and possibly result in an impairment charge. A decrease in the useful life of a

71

Table of Contents

vessel may occur as a result of poor vessel maintenance performed, harsh ocean going and weather conditions the vessel is subjected to, or poor quality of the shipbuilding or yard. If regulations place limitations over the ability of a vessel to trade on a worldwide basis, we will adjust the vessel's useful life to end at the date such regulations preclude such vessel's further commercial use.

Impairment of vessels. We review our vessels for impairment when events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the vessel may not be recoverable. In addition, we compare independent appraisals to our carrying value for indicators of impairment to our vessels. When such indicators are present, a vessel is tested for recoverability by comparing the estimate of future undiscounted net operating cash flows expected to be generated by the use of the vessel over its remaining useful life and its eventual disposition to its carrying amount. An impairment charge is recognized if the carrying value is in excess of the estimated future undiscounted net operating cash flows. The impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair market value of the asset. The new lower cost basis would result in a lower annual depreciation than before the impairment.

Our estimates of fair market value assume that our vessels are all in good and seaworthy condition without need for repair and if inspected would be certified in class without notations of any kind. Our estimates are based on information available from various industry sources, including:

● news and industry reports of similar vessel sales;

● offers that we may have received from potential purchasers of our vessels; and

As we obtain information from various industry and other sources, our estimates of fair market value are inherently uncertain. In addition, vessel values are highly volatile; as such, our estimates may not be indicative of the current or future fair market value of our vessels or prices that we could achieve if we were to sell them.

As of March 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, independent appraisals of the commercially and technically managed VLGCs in our fleet had no indicators of impairment on any of our VLGCs in accordance with ASC 360 Property, Plant, and Equipment. Accordingly, no undiscounted cash flow tests were required to be performed for any of our vessels, and, as a result, this is not considered a critical accounting estimate and no impairment charges were recognized for each years ended March 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

The amount, if any, and timing of any impairment charges we may recognize in the future will depend upon the then current and expected future charter rates and vessel values, which may differ materially from those used in our estimates as of March 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

Revenues

The following table compares revenues for the years ended March 31:

​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​

​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Increase / ​ Percent ​

Revenues, which represent net pool revenues—related party, time charters and other revenues, net, were $353.3 million for the year ended March 31, 2025, a decrease of $207.4 million, or 37.0%, from $560.7 million for the year ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to reduced average TCE rates and available days. TCE rates declined by $22,351 per available day from $62,129 for the year ended March 31, 2024 to $39,778 for the year ended March 31, 2025. This reduction was primarily due to lower spot rates, partially offset by moderately lower bunker prices. The Baltic Exchange Liquid Petroleum Gas Index, an index published daily by the Baltic Exchange for the spot market rate for the benchmark Ras Tanura-Chiba route (expressed as U.S. dollars per metric ton), averaged $104.948 during the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to an average of $57.951 for the year ended March 31, 2025. The average price of very low sulfur fuel oil (expressed as U.S. dollars per metric ton) from Singapore and Fujairah decreased from $621 during the year ended March 31, 2024, to $591 during the year ended March 31, 2025. Additionally, available days for our fleet declined from 8,982 for the year ended March 31, 2024 to 8,776 for the year ended March 31, 2025, mainly driven by an increase in the number of vessels drydocked.

Charter Hire Expenses

Charter hire expenses for the vessels chartered in from third parties were $41.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2025 compared to $43.7 million for the year ended March 31, 2024. The decrease of $2.3 million, or 5.2%, was mainly caused by a decrease in time chartered-in days from 1,512 for the year ended March 31, 2024 to 1,460 for the year ended March 31, 2025.

Vessel Operating Expenses

Vessel operating expenses were $85.4 million during the year ended March 31, 2025, or $11,143 per vessel per calendar day, which is calculated by dividing vessel operating expenses by calendar days for the relevant time period for the technically managed vessels that were in our fleet and increased by $4.9 million, or 6.1%, from $80.5 million, or $10,469 per vessel per calendar day, for the year ended March 31, 2024. The increase of $674 per vessel per calendar day, from $10,469 for the year ended March 31, 2024 to $11,143 per vessel per calendar day for the year ended March 31, 2025 was primarily the result of an increase of $404 per vessel per calendar day of non-capitalizable drydock-related operating expenses. Excluding non-capitalizable drydock-related operating expenses, daily operating expenses increased by $271 from $10,112 for the year ended March 31, 2024 to $10,383 for the year ended March 31, 2025 mainly as a result of increases in vessel communications, crew related costs, and spares and stores.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were $42.6 million for the year ended March 31, 2025, an increase of $3.6 million, or 9.3%, from $39.0 million for the year ended March 31, 2024, primarily driven by increases of $2.1 million in stock-based compensation expense, $1.0 million in cash bonuses, and $0.9 million in employee-related costs and benefits, partially offset by a reduction of $0.4 million in other general and administrative expenses.

Interest and Finance Costs

Interest and finance costs amounted to $35.8 million for the year ended March 31, 2025, a decrease of $4.7 million from $40.5 million for the year ended March 31, 2024. The decrease of $4.7 million during the year ended March 31, 2025

74

Table of Contents

was driven by a decrease of $4.4 million in interest incurred on our long-term debt and an increase of $0.4 million in capitalized interest, partially offset by a decrease of $0.1 million in loan expenses and bank charges. The decrease in interest on our long-term debt was driven by a reduction of average indebtedness, excluding deferred financing fees, from $639.9 million for the year ended March 31, 2024 to $586.6 million for the year ended March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2025, the outstanding balance of our long-term debt, excluding deferred financing fees, was $557.4 million.

Interest Income

Interest income amounted to $15.2 million for the year ended March 31, 2025, compared to $9.5 million for the year ended March 31, 2024. The increase of $5.7 million is mainly attributable to higher average cash balances for the year ended March 31, 2025 when compared to the year ended March 31, 2024.

Unrealized Gain/(Loss) on Derivatives

Unrealized loss on derivatives amounted to $5.8 million for the year ended March 31, 2025 compared to a gain of less than $0.1 million for the year ended March 31, 2024. The $5.8 million difference is primarily attributable to changes in forward SOFR yield curves and changes in notional amounts.

Realized Gain on Derivatives

Realized gain on derivatives was $5.3 million for the year ended March 31, 2025, compared to $7.5 million for the year ended March 31, 2024. The unfavorable $2.2 million difference is largely due to (1) a $1.7 million decrease in realized gains on our interest rate swaps and (2) a realized loss on our FFAs totaling $0.5 million.

Results of Operations For The Year Ended March 31, 2024 As Compared To The Year Ended March 31, 2023

For a discussion of the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to the year ended March 31, 2023, please refer to Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2024.

Operating Statistics and Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial statements presented in accordance with U.S.GAAP, we present certain operating statistics and non-GAAP financial measures to assist in the evaluation of our business performance. These non-GAAP financial measures include Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and time charter equivalent rate. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income and revenues, which are the most directly comparable measures of performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

We use these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the performance of our ongoing operations and in planning and forecasting future periods. These adjusted measures provide a more comparable basis to analyze operating results and earnings and are measures commonly used by shareholders to measure our performance. We believe that these adjusted measures, when considered together with the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures and the

reconciliations to those measures, provide meaningful supplemental information to assist investors and analysts in understanding our business results and assessing our prospects for future performance.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is an unaudited non-U.S. GAAP financial measure and represents net income before interest and finance costs, unrealized (gain)/loss on derivatives, realized (gain)/loss on interest rate swaps, stock-based compensation expense, impairment, and depreciation and amortization and is used as a supplemental financial measure by management to assess our financial and operating performance. We believe that adjusted EBITDA assists our management and investors by increasing the comparability of our performance from period to period. This increased comparability is achieved by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods of derivatives, interest and finance costs, stock-based compensation expense, impairment, and depreciation and amortization expense, which items are affected by various and possibly changing financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis and which items may significantly affect net income/(loss) between periods. We believe that including adjusted EBITDA as a financial and operating measure benefits investors in selecting between investing in us and other investment alternatives.

Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations in use and should not be considered an alternative to net income, operating income, cash flow from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income. Adjusted EBITDA as presented below may not be computed consistently with similarly titled measures of other companies and, therefore, might not be comparable with other companies.

Time charter equivalent rate

Time charter equivalent rate, or TCE rate, is a non-U.S. GAAP measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel. TCE rate is a shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period‐to‐period changes in a shipping company’s performance despite changes in the mix of charter types (such as time charters, voyage charters) under which the vessels may be employed between the periods and is a factor in management’s business decisions and is useful to investors in understanding our underlying performance and business trends. Our method of calculating TCE rate is to divide revenue net of voyage expenses by available days for the relevant time period, which may not be calculated the same by other companies. Note that we have updated the denominator of our calculation of TCE to be our updated

definition of available days as we believe it is more reflective of industry practice and more consistent with the practice used in the Helios Pool, which now accounts for more than 95% of our revenue.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our business is capital intensive, and our future success depends on our ability to maintain a high‐quality fleet. As of March 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $316.9 million and non-current restricted cash of $0.1 million.

Our primary sources of capital during the year ended March 31, 2025 were (i) $173.0 million in cash generated from operations and (ii) the net cash proceeds from the issuance of our common stock in June 2024 amounted to approximately $84.4 million, net of underwriting discounts and commission, and legal and other offering costs.As of March 31, 2025, the outstanding balance of our long-term debt, net of deferred financing fees of $4.1 million, was $553.3 million including $54.5 million of principal on our long-term debt scheduled to be repaid during the year ending March 31, 2026.

Operating expenses, including expenses to maintain the quality of our vessels in order to comply with international shipping standards and environmental laws and regulations, the funding of working capital requirements, long-term debt repayments, financing costs, commitments, as described in Note 20 to our consolidated financial statements, for the building of a VLGC/AC, the fabrication and installation of scrubber, and drydocking represent our short-term, medium-term and long-term liquidity needs as of March 31, 2025. We anticipate satisfying our liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months with cash on hand, cash from operations and, if needed, drawdowns on the revolving credit facility available under the 2023 A&R Debt Facility. We may also seek additional liquidity through alternative sources of debt financings and/or through equity financings by way of private or public offerings. However, if these sources are insufficient to satisfy our short-term liquidity needs, or to satisfy our future medium-term or long-term liquidity needs, we may need to seek alternative sources of financing and/or modifications of our existing credit facility and financing arrangements. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain any such financing or modifications to our existing credit facility and financing arrangements on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

On June 7, 2024, we issued 2 million shares to the public at a price of $44.50 per share with proceeds totaling $89.0 million, less (i) $2.225 per share, or $4.5 million, of underwriting discounts and commissions, and (ii) $0.1 million of legal and other offering costs.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash and cash equivalents provided by/(used in) operating, financing and investing activities for the periods presented:

​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​

Operating Cash Flows. Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended March 31, 2025 was $173.0 million compared with $388.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in cash generated from operations of $215.4 million is primarily related to reduced cash flows from operating profits (refer to Results of Operations – For the year ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the year ended March 31, 2024, for drivers of changes in revenues and expenses for the applicable periods), along with changes in working capital, mainly from amounts due from the Helios Pool as distributions from the Helios Pool are impacted by the timing of the completion of voyages, spot market rates and bunker prices. For a discussion of the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to the year ended March 31, 2023, please refer to Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Liquidity and Capital Resources” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2024.

Net cash flow from operating activities depends upon our overall profitability, market rates for vessels employed on voyage charters, charter rates agreed to for time charters, the timing and amount of payments for drydocking expenditures and unscheduled repairs and maintenance, fluctuations in working capital balances and bunker costs.

Investing Cash Flows. Net cash used in investing activities was $7.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2025, compared with net cash used in investing activities of $34.8 million for the year ended March 31, 2024. For the year ended March 31, 2025, net cash used in investing activities was comprised of $18.9 million in payments for a vessel under construction and vessel capital expenditures, partially offset by $11.8 million in proceeds from maturity of available-for-sale debt securities. For the year ended March 31, 2024, net cash used in investing activities was comprised of $32.9 million in payments for a vessel under construction and vessel capital expenditures, and $6.0 million in purchases of investment securities, partially offset by $4.0 million in proceeds from the sale of investment securities.

Financing Cash Flows. Net cash used in financing activities was $131.3 million for the year ended March 31, 2025, compared with net cash used in financing activities of $219.7 million for the year ended March 31, 2024. For the year ended March 31, 2025, net cash used in financing activities consisted of (i) dividend payments of $156.4 million, (ii) repayments of long-term debt of $53.0 million, and (iii) repurchases of common stock of $6.3 million, offset by $84.4 million of net proceeds from an issuance of common shares ($89.0 million of gross proceeds less offering costs paid of $4.6 million). For the year ended March 31, 2024, net cash used in financing activities consisted of (i) dividend payments of $162.3 million, (ii) repayments of long-term debt of $53.1 million, (iii) repurchases of common stock of $3.9 million, and (iv) financing costs paid totaling $0.4 million. For a discussion of the year ended March 31, 2024 compared to the year ended March 31, 2023, please refer to Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Liquidity and Capital Resources” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2024.

Capital Expenditures. LPG transportation is a capital‐intensive business, requiring significant investment to maintain an efficient fleet and to stay in regulatory compliance.

We are generally required to complete a special survey for a vessel once every five years. Drydocking of vessels occurs every five years unless an extension is granted by the classification society to seven and one-half years and the vessel is not older than 15 years of age. Intermediate surveys are performed every two and one-half years after every special survey. Drydocking each vessel takes approximately 15 to 25 days. We spend significant amounts for scheduled drydocking (including the cost of classification society surveys) for each of our vessels.

As our vessels age and our fleet expands, our drydocking expenses will increase. We estimate the current cash outlay for a VLGC special survey to be approximately $1.2 million per vessel (excluding any capital improvements, such

80

Table of Contents

as scrubbers, ballast water management systems, energy saving devices, and performance improvement additions to the vessel that may be made during such drydockings) and the cost of an intermediate survey to be between $150,000 and $250,000 per vessel. Ongoing costs for compliance with environmental regulations are primarily included as part of our drydocking and classification society survey costs. In order to comply with current emissions regulations, we have installed scrubbers on fifteen of our vessels and have one chartered-in scrubber-equipped vessel, which allows us to burn heavy fuel oil. Our other non-dual fuel vessels currently consume compliant fuels on board (0.5% sulfur), which are readily available globally, but at a significantly higher cost. We have entered into a contract to fabricate a scrubber for installation on our newbuilding VLGC/AC with remaining commitments on this contract totaling $1.1 million as of March 31, 2025. We also have one newbuilding Dual-fuel ECO VLGC and three chartered-in dual-fuel vessels that have the capability to burn LPG as fuel, which we believe provides an economic benefit over traditional fuel. Please see "Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Company—We may incur increasing costs for the drydocking, maintenance or replacement of our vessels as they age, and, as our vessels age, the risks associated with older vessels could adversely affect our ability to obtain profitable charters.”

On November 24, 2023, we entered into a shipbuilding contract for a newbuilding VLGC/AC with a cargo carrying capacity of 93,000 cbm that can transport LPG or ammonia, which is expected to be delivered from Hanwha Ocean Co. Ltd. in the second calendar quarter of 2026. As of March 31, 2025, we had $86.4 million of commitments under the newbuilding contracts outstanding that we expect to settle during certain milestones through the expected delivery of the vessel.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to Note 2 of our consolidated financial statements included herein.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in interest rates, foreign currency fluctuations, and inflation.

Interest Rate Risk

The LPG shipping industry is capital intensive, requiring significant amounts of investment. Much of this investment is provided in the form of long-term debt. Our 2023 A&R Debt Facility currently contains interest rates that fluctuate with SOFR. We have entered into interest rate swap agreements and have one outstanding agreement as of March 31, 2025 to hedge a majority of our exposure to fluctuations of interest rate risk associated with our 2023 A&R Debt Facility. We have hedged $148.0 million of amortizing principal as of March 31, 2025 and thus increasing interest rates could adversely impact our future earnings. For the 12 months following March 31, 2025, a hypothetical increase or decrease of 20 basis points in the underlying SOFR rates would result in an increase or decrease of our interest expense on our unhedged interest-bearing debt by $0.1 million assuming all other variables are held constant. See Notes 10 and 21 to our consolidated financial statements included herein for a description of our debt obligations and interest rate swaps, respectively.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

Our primary economic environment is the international LPG shipping market. This market utilizes the U.S. dollar as its functional currency. Consequently, our revenues are in U.S. dollars and the majority of our operating expenses are in U.S. dollars. However, we incur some of our expenses in other currencies, particularly Euro, Singapore Dollar, Danish Krone, Japanese Yen, British Pound Sterling, and Norwegian Krone. The amount and frequency of some of these expenses, such as vessel repairs, supplies and stores, may fluctuate from period to period. Depreciation in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies will increase the cost of us paying such expenses. For the year ended March 31, 2025, 26% of

81

Table of Contents

our expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization, interest and finance costs and gain/loss on derivatives), were in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, and as a result we expect the foreign exchange risk associated with these operating expenses to be immaterial. We do not have foreign exchange exposure in respect of our credit facility and interest rate swap agreements, as these are denominated in U.S. dollars.

The portion of our business conducted in other currencies could increase in the future, which could expand our exposure to losses arising from currency fluctuations.

Inflation

Certain of our operating expenses, including crewing, insurance and drydocking costs, are subject to fluctuations caused by market forces. Crewing costs in particular have risen over the past number of years as a result of a shortage of trained crews. Please see "Item 1A. Risk Factors—We may be unable to attract and retain key management personnel and other employees in the shipping industry without incurring substantial expense as a result of rising crew costs, which may negatively affect the effectiveness of our management and our results of operations." A shortage of qualified officers makes it more difficult to crew our vessels and may increase our operating costs. If this shortage were to continue or worsen, it may impair our ability to operate and could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. Inflationary pressures on bunker (fuel and oil) costs could have a material effect on our future operations if the number of vessels employed on voyage charters increases. In the case of any vessels that are time-chartered to third parties, it is the charterers who pay for the fuel. If our vessels are employed under voyage charters, freight rates are generally sensitive to the price of fuel. However, a sharp rise in bunker prices may have a temporary negative effect on our results since freight rates generally adjust only after prices settle at a higher level. Please see "Item 1A. Risk Factors—Changes in fuel, or bunker, prices may adversely affect profits.”

Although inflation has had a moderate impact on our vessel operating expenses, insurance and corporate overheads, management does not consider inflation to be a significant risk to direct costs in the current and foreseeable economic environment. LPG transportation is a specialized area and the number of vessels is increasing. There will therefore be an increased demand for qualified crew and this has and will continue to put inflationary pressure on crew costs. However, in a shipping downturn, costs subject to inflation can usually be controlled because shipping companies typically monitor costs to preserve liquidity and encourage suppliers and service providers to lower rates and prices in the event of a downturn.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2025. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits to the Commission under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Commission rules and forms and that

82

Table of Contents

such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our management conducted an evaluation of our effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of the inherent limitations of internal controls over financial reporting, misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Based on the evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 31, 2025.

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2025 has been audited by Deloitte Certified Public Accountants S.A., an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears herein.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions has determined that no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13(a)-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) of the Exchange Act) occurred during the fourth fiscal quarter of our fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitation on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and our internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and our internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Dorian LPG Ltd.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Dorian LPG Ltd. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated May 29, 2025, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Dorian LPG Ltd.

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Dorian LPG Ltd. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2025, of the Company and our report dated May 29, 2025, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying “Management’s Report on Internal control over Financial Reporting”. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Filing HTML rendered to line-structured narrative text by the shipped reducer (datafeeds.edgar_fulltext.visible_text, keep_table_headers=True): scripts and inline-XBRL headers are dropped, and table content is reduced to its short label cells — numeric table data is not rendered and is therefore not counted. The same rendering is used for every year, so a year-over-year comparison is like for like.

The text is our rendering of the filing, not a facsimile: original pagination, typography and tables are not reproduced, and the numbers live in the financial statements (FA).

The outline locates item HEADINGS in this document. Only Items 1A and 7 have certified boundaries elsewhere in the terminal (the redline and the narrative-overlap number); every span here runs from one heading found to the next heading found.

How the outline was chosen. It is the longest chain of item headings that runs forward through both the document and the standard item order: 23 headings are on that chain and 18 further heading-shaped lines are not — the table-of-contents echo of every item, cross-references and exhibit-list mentions. Each entry's length is measured from its heading to the next heading on the chain.
