Yes  T            No c
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
Since the Company emerged from bankruptcy during the quarter ended September 30, 2014, the Company will present the period from July 1, 2014 to July 9, 2014 as the Predecessor period and the period from July 9, 2014 to September 30, 2014 as the Successor period. The amounts reflected below combine the results of both the Predecessor and Successor periods for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

The Company expects to report the following results of operations for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2014: voyage revenues are expected to decrease to approximately $48.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $58.6 million for the prior year period. The Company expects its net income for the three months ended September 30, 2014 to be approximately $870.7 million compared to a net loss of $37.0 million for the prior year period. The significant change in the Company’s net income for the period ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the corresponding period ended September 30, 2013 is attributable to the application of fresh start accounting required upon the Company’s emergence from bankruptcy on July 9, 2014. Included in net income for the three months ended September 30, 2014 is an estimated net gain of $901.2 million in reorganization items.
 
Voyage expenses are expected to increase to approximately $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $2.2 million for the prior year period. Vessel operating expenses are expected to increase to approximately $30.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $27.5 million for the prior year period. For the three months ended September 30, 2014, the Company expects to report an operating loss of approximately $25.0 million compared to an operating loss of $13.4 million for the prior year period.
 
The foregoing information is based on the Company’s preliminary estimates of its results of operations for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2014 and anticipated changes from the prior year period. The Company’s estimates are subject to change, and actual results may differ significantly from these estimates.
