Drybulk Carrier Segment Summary Operating Data (unaudited) (Dollars in thousands, except average daily results)
| Drybulk | Three Months Ended December 31, | Year Ended December 31, | |||||
| 2015 | 2016 | 2015 | 2016 | ||||
| Average number of vessels (1) | 26.5 | 15.2 | 35.8 | 19.4 | |||
| Total voyage days for vessels (2) | 2,341 | 1,221 | 12,562 | 6,404 | |||
| Total calendar days for vessels (3) | 2,434 | 1,394 | 13,060 | 7,116 | |||
| Fleet utilization (4) | 96.2% | 87.6% | 96.2% | 90.0% | |||
| Time charter equivalent (5) | $5,097 | $5,444 | $9,171 | $3,658 | |||
| Vessel operating expenses (daily) (6) | $6,528 | $4,772 | $6,715 | $4,826 | |||
(1) Average number of vessels is the number of vessels that constituted our fleet for the relevant period, as measured by the sum of the number of days each vessel was a part of our fleet during the period divided by the number of calendar days in that period. (2) Total voyage days for fleet are the total days the vessels were in our possession for the relevant period net of dry-docking and laid-up days. (3) Calendar days are the total number of days the vessels were in our possession for the relevant period including dry-docking days and laid-up days. (4) Fleet utilization is the percentage of time that our vessels were available for revenue generating voyage days, and is determined by dividing voyage days by fleet calendar days for the relevant period. (5) Time charter equivalent, or TCE, is a measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel on a per voyage basis. Our method of calculating TCE is consistent with industry standards and is determined by dividing voyage revenues (net of voyage expenses) by voyage days for the relevant time period. Voyage expenses primarily consist of port, canal and fuel costs that are unique to a particular voyage and are paid by the charterer under a time charter contract, as well as commissions. TCE revenues, a non-U.S. GAAP measure, provides additional meaningful information in conjunction with revenues from our vessels, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, because it assists our management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of its vessels and in evaluating their financial performance. TCE is also a standard 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 (i.e., spot charters, time charters and bareboat charters) under which the vessels may be employed between the periods. Please see below for a reconciliation of TCE rates to voyage revenues. (6) Daily vessel operating expenses, which includes crew costs, provisions, deck and engine stores, lubricating oil, insurance, maintenance and repairs is calculated by dividing vessel operating expenses by fleet calendar days net of laid-up days for the relevant time period. (7) Does not include accrual for the provision of the purchase options and write off in overdue receivables under certain time charter agreements.

Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation
Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, goodwill, vessel and investment impairments and certain other non-cash items as described below, dry-dockings, class survey costs and gains or losses on interest rate swaps. Adjusted EBITDA does not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations, as determined by United States generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP, and our calculation of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is included herein because it is a basis upon which the Company measures its operations. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by our lenders as a measure of our compliance with certain covenants contained in our loan agreements and because the Company believes that it presents useful information to investors regarding a company's ability to service and/or incur indebtedness.
The following table reconciles net loss to Adjusted EBITDA:
