Paragon Shipping Inc. (PRGN: Quote) Thursday said its first-quarter profit declined to $720 thousand or $0.01 per share from $5.4 million or $0.09 per share in the comparable quarter last year, due mainly to lower revenues.

On average, four analysts polled by Thomson Reuters expected the company to report a loss of $0.05 per share for the quarter. Analysts' estimates typically exclude special items.
