Stamatis Tsantanis, the Company’s Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, stated:

“Seanergy reported record financial results for the second quarter and the first half of the year. Based on the sustained profitability of Seanergy, we are declaring a quarterly dividend of $0.025 per share for Q2 2022, which represents approximately 63% of our adjusted net income for the period. Over the last three quarters, we will have distributed approximately $18.0 million or $0.10 per share to our shareholders.

“Concerning our results for the second quarter of 2022, our daily TCE was $23,251, marking an increase of 16% compared to the TCE of the second quarter of 2021. The TCE for the first 6 months of 2022 was $21,207 per day as compared to a daily TCE of approximately $18,327 in the first half of 2021. Most importantly, the TCE of our fleet outperformed the Baltic Capesize Index (“BCI”) average in the first six months of 2022 by 17%. Our guidance for the third quarter is $23,650 per day.

“Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter and first half of 2022 was $17.3 million and $34.1 million, respectively, marking a 53% and a 77% increase versus the respective periods of 2021. Net income for the quarter was approximately $5.9 million, while that of the first half was $9.6 million.

“We also recently completed the spin-off of United, which commenced trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market on July 6, 2022, under the ticker “USEA”. The distribution of all of United’s common shares to our shareholders represents a significant return of value.

“Lastly, concerning our shareholder rewards plan, following the successful execution of two buyback plans of shares and equity-linked instruments totaling $26.7 million, our Board of Directors authorized an additional share repurchase plan of $5 million. Including the aforementioned dividend payments, a total of $44.7 million of the Company’s cash has been allocated to activities which directly reward our shareholders since the fourth quarter of 2021.

“In the second quarter, we concluded the acquisition of another quality Japanese Capesize vessel, replacing the M/V Gloriuship that was spun out to United. The new acquisition, renamed M/V Honorship, was delivered to us in June and immediately commenced its period employment for approximately 2 years with NYK Line.

“On the financing front, in 2022 to-date, we have successfully concluded new financings and refinancings of $80.3 million while obtaining a commitment letter from a prominent European lender for the last remaining loan maturity in 2022. In addition to the replacement of legacy debt at considerably improved terms, one of our new facilities includes a significant sustainability-linked element. This is aligned with our intention to incorporate our ESG agenda in every aspect of our corporation.

“Concerning our fleet developments, we have now successfully completed installations of ballast water treatment systems on 100% of our fleet and have upgraded various vessels by installing Energy Saving Devices. In most cases, these projects are accompanied by agreements with our charterers to increase the daily hire rate, reflecting the improved performance of the underlying vessels, as well as to extend the respective time-charter periods. As a result, we believe our fleet is optimally positioned commercially and operationally.

“Looking ahead, considering the favorable demand and vessel-supply fundamentals of our sector, we are optimistic about the prospects of the Capesize market for the coming years.”

(1)	Ownership days are the total number of calendar days in a period during which the vessels in a fleet have been owned or chartered in. Ownership days are an indicator of the size of the Company’s fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of expenses that the Company recorded during a period.
(2)	Operating days are the number of available days in a period less the aggregate number of days that the vessels are off-hire due to unforeseen circumstances. Operating days includes the days that our vessels are in ballast voyages without having finalized agreements for their next employment.
(3)	Fleet utilization is the percentage of time that the vessels are generating revenue and is determined by dividing operating days by ownership days for the relevant period.
(4)	TCE rate is defined as the Company’s net revenue less voyage expenses during a period divided by the number of the Company’s operating days during the period. Voyage expenses include port charges, bunker (fuel oil and diesel oil) expenses, canal charges and other commissions. The Company includes the TCE rate, a non-GAAP measure, as it believes it provides additional meaningful information in conjunction with net revenues from vessels, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, and because it assists the Company’s management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of our vessels and because the Company believes that it provides useful information to investors regarding our financial performance. The Company’s calculation of TCE rate may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. The following table reconciles the Company’s net revenues from vessels to the TCE rate.

Vessel operating expenses include crew costs, provisions, deck and engine stores, lubricants, insurance, maintenance and repairs. Daily Vessel Operating Expenses are calculated by dividing vessel operating expenses, excluding pre delivery costs, by ownership days for the relevant time periods. The Company’s calculation of daily vessel operating expenses may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. The following table reconciles the Company’s vessel operating expenses to daily vessel operating expenses.

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") represents the sum of net income / (loss), net interest and finance costs, depreciation and amortization and, if any, income taxes during a period. EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation, loss on forward freight agreements, net, and loss on extinguishment of debt, which the Company believes are not indicative of the ongoing performance of its core operations.

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are presented as we believe that these measures are useful to investors as a widely used means of evaluating operating profitability. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA as presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Weighted average number of common shares outstanding, diluted	177,368,289	165,864,695	178,074,877	143,292,880

To derive Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) and Adjusted Earnings/(Loss) Per Share from Net Income/(Loss), we exclude non-cash items, as provided in the table above. We believe that Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) and Adjusted Earnings/(Loss) Per Share assist our management and investors by increasing the comparability of our performance from period to period since each such measure eliminates the effects of such non-cash items as gain/(loss) on extinguishment of debt and other items which may vary from year to year, for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. In addition, we believe that the presentation of the respective measure provides investors with supplemental data relating to our results of operations, and therefore, with a more complete understanding of factors affecting our business than with GAAP measures alone. Our method of computing Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) and Adjusted Earnings/(Loss) Per Share may not necessarily be comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation.

Third Quarter 2022 TCE Guidance:

As of the date hereof, approximately 62% of the Company fleet’s expected operating days in the third quarter of 2022 have been fixed at an estimated TCE of approximately $26,600. Assuming that for the remaining operating days of our index-linked T/Cs, the respective vessels’ TCE will be equal to the average Forward Freight Agreement (“FFA”) rate of $19,865 per day (based on the FFA curve of August 1, 2022), our estimated TCE for the third quarter of 2022 will be approximately $23,650¹. Our TCE guidance for the third quarter of 2022 includes certain conversions (three vessels) of index-linked charters to fixed, which were concluded in previous quarters as part of our freight hedging strategy. The following table provides the break-down:

	Operating Days	TCE
TCE - fixed rate (index-linked conversion)	281	$33,839
TCE - fixed rate	183	$29,992
TCE – index-linked unhedged	1,102	$19,998
Total / Average	1,566	$23,650

¹ This guidance is based on certain assumptions and there can be no assurance that these TCE estimates, or projected utilization will be realized. TCE estimates include certain floating (index) to fixed rate conversions concluded in previous periods. For vessels on index-linked T/Cs, the TCE realized will vary with the underlying index, and for the purposes of this guidance, the TCE assumed for the remaining operating days of the quarter for an index-linked T/C is equal to the average FFA rate of $19,865. Spot estimates are provided using the load-to-discharge method of accounting. Over the duration of the voyage (discharge-to-discharge) there is no difference in the total revenues and costs to be recognized. The rates quoted are for days currently contracted. Increased ballast days at the end of the quarter will reduce the additional revenues that can be booked based on the accounting cut-offs and therefore the resulting TCE will be reduced accordingly.

Second Quarter and Recent Developments:

Dividend Distribution and Declaration of Q2 Dividend

On July 14, 2022, the Company paid the previously-announced quarterly dividend of $0.025 per share, for the first quarter of 2022.

Additional Share Buyback Plan

In June 2022, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized an additional share repurchase plan, under which the Company may repurchase up to $5.0 million of its outstanding common shares, convertible note or warrants. Since the fourth quarter of 2021 to date, the Company has repurchased $26.7 million of outstanding common shares, convertible notes and warrants reducing its financial leverage and preventing a potential dilution.

Vessel acquisitions and commercial updates

M/V Honorship
In June 2022, the Company took delivery of the 180,242 dwt Capesize bulk carrier, built in 2010 in Japan, which was renamed M/V Honorship. The M/V Honorship was fixed on a time charter with NYK Line, a leading Japanese shipping company and existing charterer of the Company. The T/C commenced on June 30, 2022 and will have a term of about 20 to about 24 months. The gross daily rate of the T/C is based at a premium over the BCI.

M/V Partnership
Following the completion of her recent drydock, the charterer agreed to exercise the optional period extending the T/C until October 2022 at a higher rate based at a premium over the BCI and at an increased scrubber profit sharing scheme. In addition, the T/C provides for one more optional extension period of 11-13 months at charterer’s option.

Financing Updates

During the first half of 2022, the Company has successfully concluded new financings and refinancings of $80.3 million, out of which $59.0 million were concluded in the second quarter of 2022. Furthermore, the Company has received a commitment letter for a loan facility of up to $28.0 million, which will be concluded within Q3 2022.

Piraeus Bank S.A
On June 22, 2022, the Company entered into an up to $38.0 million sustainability-linked loan facility to (i) refinance the existing facility of $14.9 million secured by the M/V Worldship and (ii) partially fund the acquisition cost of the M/V Honorship. The facility has a term of five years while the interest rate is 3.0% plus LIBOR per annum and can be further reduced based on certain emission reduction thresholds.

Alpha Bank S.A.
On June 21, 2022, the Company entered into a credit facility for an amount of up to $21.0 million secured by the M/V Dukeship. The facility has a term of four years and the interest rate is 2.95% plus SOFR per annum.

Danish Ship Finance Commitment Letter
In July 2022, the Company obtained a commitment letter from Danish Ship Finance A/S for a loan facility of up to $28.0 million, in order to refinance an existing facility of $24.8 million secured by the M/Vs Premiership & Fellowship. The interest rate will be 2.5% plus SOFR per annum and the term of the loan will be five years. The facility will be repaid through six quarterly instalments of $1.6 million followed by 14 quarterly instalments of $1.04 million and a balloon of $4.1 million payable together with the last instalment. The existing facility that is intended to be refinanced includes a balloon payment of $23.6 million to be paid during the fourth quarter of 2022. The transaction is subject to completion of definitive documentation.

Spin-Off and distribution of United’s shares

In July 2022, the Company completed the spin-off of its wholly-owned subsidiary, United Maritime Corporation which commenced trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on July 6, 2022 under the symbol “USEA”. The Company’s shareholders on record as of June 28, 2022, received one United common share for every 118 Seanergy common shares.
