DIANA SHIPPING INC. REPORTS FINANCIAL RESULTS
FOR THE SECOND QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2012

ANNOUNCES TIME CHARTER CONTRACTS
FOR M/V NAIAS AND M/V OCEANIS WITH ULTRABULK

ATHENS, GREECE, August 2, 2012 – Diana Shipping Inc. (NYSE: DSX), a global shipping company specializing in the ownership and operation of dry bulk vessels, today reported net income of $17.4 million for the second quarter of 2012, compared to net income of $27.7 million reported in the second quarter of 2011.
 
Time charter revenues were $57.6 million for the second quarter of 2012, compared to $64.6 million for the same period of 2011, mainly due to reduced time charter rates. The decrease in time charter revenues was partly offset by revenues derived from the increase in ownership days resulting from the addition to the Company's fleet of the vessels Arethusa, delivered in July 2011; Leto, delivered in January 2012; Los Angeles, delivered in February 2012; and Philadelphia and Melia, delivered in May 2012.
 
Net income to Diana Shipping Inc. for the six months ended June 30, 2012 amounted to $37.3 million, compared to net income of $60.8 million for the same period of 2011. Time charter revenues were $115.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $134.1 million for the same period of 2011.
 
Time Charter Contracts
 
Separately, the Company also announced that it has entered into time charter contracts with Ultrabulk A/S, Copenhagen, Denmark, through separate wholly-owned subsidiaries, for two of its Panamax dry bulk carriers, the m/v "Naias" and the m/v "Oceanis". The gross charter rate for each vessel is US$9,250 per day, minus a 5% commission paid to third parties, for a period of minimum seventeen (17) months to maximum twenty-three (23) months. The Oceanis charter is expected to commence in mid-August 2012 and the Naias charter is expected to commence at the end of August 2012. The employment of the two vessels is anticipated to generate approximately US$9.4 million of gross revenue for the minimum scheduled period of the charters.
 
The Naias is a 73,546 dwt Panamax dry bulk vessel built in 2006 and the Oceanis is a 75,211 dwt Panamax dry bulk vessel built in 2001.

(1)
Time charter equivalent rates, or TCE rates, are defined as our time charter revenues less voyage expenses during a period divided by the number of our available days during the period, which is consistent with industry standards.  Voyage expenses include port charges, bunker (fuel) expenses, canal charges and commissions.  TCE is a non-GAAP measure.  TCE rate is a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare daily earnings generated by vessels on time charters with daily earnings generated by vessels on voyage charters, because charter hire rates for vessels on voyage charters are generally not expressed in per day amounts while charter hire rates for vessels on time charters are generally expressed in such amounts.

(2)
Daily vessel operating expenses, which include crew wages and related costs, the cost of insurance, expenses relating to repairs and maintenance, the costs of spares and consumable stores, tonnage taxes and other miscellaneous expenses, are calculated by dividing vessel operating expenses by ownership days for the relevant period.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Matters discussed in this press release may constitute forward-looking statements.  The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbor protections for forward-looking statements in order to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their business.  Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical facts.

The Company desires to take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is including this cautionary statement in connection with this safe harbor legislation. The words "believe," "anticipate," "intends," "estimate," "forecast," "project," "plan," "potential," "may," "should," "expect," "pending" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements in this press release are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, our management's examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third parties.  Although we believe that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond our control, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections.

In addition to these important factors, other important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include the strength of world economies and currencies, general market conditions, including fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values, changes in demand for dry bulk shipping capacity, changes in our operating expenses, including bunker prices, drydocking and insurance costs, the market for our vessels, availability of financing and refinancing, changes in governmental rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory authorities, potential liability from pending or future litigation, general domestic and international political conditions, potential disruption of shipping routes due to accidents or political events, vessels breakdowns and instances of off-hires and other factors.  Please see our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a more complete discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties.
