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

“We are pleased to report another profitable year for Seanergy, despite the prevailing global economic and political challenges that have negatively affected our industry.

“For the fourth quarter of 2022 our Board of Directors has approved a cash dividend of $0.025 per share which represents the majority of Seanergy’s net income for the quarter. We remain cognizant of current Capesize market conditions and our primary aim is to preserve a balance between financial flexibility, capital returns and investment opportunities. Since we initiated our dividend policy in the beginning of 2022, total cash dividends declared have been approximately $22.9 million or $1.275 per share, representing a 20% yield based on our share price as of March 10, 2023. Along with the successful execution of $35.5 million in repurchases of common shares and convertible securities since December 2021, we have deployed approximately $58.4 million benefiting our common shareholders over the last 15 months.

“In July 2022, we completed the spin-off of United Maritime Corporation, 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 an additional significant return of value.

“As far as our results for the fourth quarter of 2022 are concerned, we recorded a TCE of $17,300, achieving a premium of 16% over the Baltic Capesize Index and for the full year our daily TCE of $20,040 represented a premium of about 24% over the index. We have outperformed the market consistently over the past quarters, despite the volatility experienced in day-rates, and we consider this a main pillar of our success. Our Net Income for the fourth quarter and full year period was equal to $0.5 million and $17.2 million, respectively. Our decision to focus on high quality vessels in combination with our proactive freight hedging strategy and the premiums earned by our scrubber fitted vessels have mitigated the effects of a falling spot market.

“Regarding our fleet renewal strategy, in December 2022 we took delivery of a scrubber fitted Capesize vessel built in 2012 in Japan, the M/V Paroship. The vessel entered a time charter (“T/C”) with a major European ship operator for a period of about 10 months at an index linked rate with the majority of the scrubber profit being assigned to Seanergy. This was the second vessel purchased by our Company in 2022, following the acquisition of the 2010 Japanese-built M/V Honorship in the second quarter, also chartered to NYK and for a period of about 20 to about 24 months on an index linked rate. These vessels replaced the older M/V Goodship and M/V Tradership, built in 2005 and 2006, respectively, which we agreed to sell in the fourth quarter of 2022 to United Maritime, as well as the 2004-built M/V Gloriuship that was spun-off in July 2022 as part of United Maritime. Through these purchase and sale transactions we reduced the average age of our fleet by approximately one year. Furthermore, the scrubber profit sharing schemes of our fleet have been improved, which will add meaningfully to our revenues in 2023 and beyond.

“On the financing front, within 2022 we concluded approximately $124.8 million in new financing arrangements and refinancings and we have sufficient liquidity to mitigate a softer market environment, whilst we are continuously renewing our fleet in expectancy of a stronger rates environment later in 2023.

“In February 2023, we effected a one-for-ten reverse stock split to proactively achieve compliance with Nasdaq’s listing rules, attract a broader and long-term investor base and improve the daily marketability and liquidity of our shares. On that note, given what I believe to be a material undervaluation of our common stock, I have decided to invest up to $1 million of my personal capital in additional Seanergy shares. I intend to commence the purchases in the open market following the announcement of our financial results in line with Seanergy’s trading policy.

“Moving on to issues relating to Environmental, Social and Governance, in December 2022 we released our first ESG report, which has been prepared in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative Standards (GRI) and the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB). On this note, I am pleased to see our fleet consistently managing to secure premiums to benchmark Baltic Capesize Index levels on our recent time charter renewals, which in many ways comes on the back of our ambitious energy efficiency improvement program implemented over the last two years.

“Regarding current market conditions, we are glad to see that the seasonal spot market weakness was short-lived, and we already see signs of recovery with spot rates and forward curves moving up substantially in recent days. We also note that vessel values have remained firm through the recent months based on our sector’s strong forward outlook. With dry bulk fleet growth at the lowest levels on record and with demand for dry bulk commodities expected to rebound after the reopening of China, we remain confident in the long-term prospects of the market and believe that Seanergy is very well positioned to benefit from the widely anticipated rebound in the sector. We will continue to evaluate our options with respect to returning capital to shareholders and accretive vessel acquisitions.”

Daily Vessel Operating Expenses (5)	$	6,651		$	7,184		$	6,819		$	6,211

(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. Available days are the number of ownership days less the aggregate number of days that our vessels are off-hire due to major repairs, dry-dockings, lay-up or special or intermediate surveys. Operating days include 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.

(In thousands of U.S. Dollars, except operating days and TCE rate)

(5)

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.

Adjusted EBITDA	12,458	38,763			65,572			90,149

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, loss on extinguishment of debt, and the non-recurring gains on spin-off and on sale of vessel, 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. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company’s performance. 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.

Adjusted Net income Reconciliation and calculation of Adjusted Net Income Per Share

(In thousands of U.S. Dollars, except for share and per share data)

	Q4 2022	Q4 2021		FY 2022			FY 2021
Net income	493	20,644			17,239			41,348
Stock based compensation	423	393			7,185			5,097
Loss on extinguishment of debt	6	6,863			1,291			6,863
Loss / (gain) on forward freight agreements, net	10	(24	)		417			(24	)
Gain on spin-off	-	-			(2,800	)		-
Adjusted net income	932	27,876			23,332			53,284
Adjusted net income per common share, basic	0.05	1.63			1.33			3.48
Adjusted net income per common share, diluted	0.05	1.36			1.32			2.78
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding, basic	17,897,084	17,088,401			17,493,033			15,332,190
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding, diluted	17,897,084	20,522,839			17,684,048			19,133,752

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.

First Quarter 2023 TCE Guidance:

As of the date hereof, approximately 89% of the Company fleet’s expected operating days in the first quarter of 2023 have been fixed at an estimated TCE of approximately $9,698. 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 $15,000 per day (based on the FFA curve of March 10, 2023), Our estimated TCE for the first quarter of 2023 will be approximately $10,191⁵. The following table provides the break-down of index-linked charter and fixed-rate charters in the first quarter of 2023:

	Operating Days	TCE
TCE - fixed rate (index-linked conversion)	0	N/A
TCE - fixed rate	0	N/A
TCE – index-linked unhedged	1,539	10,191
Total / Average	1,539	10,191

Fourth Quarter and Recent Developments:

Reverse stock split and Nasdaq Compliance

At the opening of trading on February 16, 2023, a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock became effective and our shares began trading on a split adjusted basis on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

The exercise price of the Company’s outstanding Class D and Class E warrants, the conversion price of the Company’s $3.2 million outstanding convertible note, and the number of shares issuable on conversion or exchange of such securities, was adjusted accordingly.

On March 3, 2023, we received a letter from Nasdaq confirming that we had regained compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement.

Dividend Distribution for Q3 2022 and Declaration of Q4 2022 Dividend

On January 30, 2023, the Company paid the previously announced quarterly dividend of $0.025 per share, for the third quarter of 2022, to all shareholders of record as of December 28, 2022.

The Company also declared a cash dividend of $0.025 per share for the fourth quarter of 2022 payable on or about April 25, 2023 to the shareholders of record as of March 31, 2023.

⁵This 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 $15,000 based on the curve of March 10, 2023. Spot estimates are provided using the load-to-discharge method of accounting. 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.

Completion of the tender offer for the purchase of the Class E Common Share Purchase Warrants

On January 10, 2023, the Company completed its tender offer to purchase all outstanding Class E Warrants at a price of $0.20 per warrant. The total number of warrants tendered was 4,038,114 warrants, representing approximately 47% of the outstanding Class E Warrants. The remaining outstanding Class E Warrants are exercisable to purchase up to 449,459 of our common shares at an exercise price of $4.99 per common share.

Buyback of Convertible Note

On January 3, 2023, the Company repaid $8.0 million of the note issued to Jelco Delta Holding Corp. (“Note”) at its face value, without any prepayment cost or additional consideration in accordance with the terms of the Note. Based on a conversion price of $12 per share, the buyback pre-empted the potential issuance of 667,000 shares.

In addition, considering that the Note carries a fixed coupon of 5.5% p.a., the Company will realize annual interest savings of $440,000. There are approximately $3.2 million currently outstanding under the Note, which is the only remaining convertible note issued by the Company.

Environmental, Social and Governance Report for 2021

On December 22, 2022, the Company released its Environmental, Social and Governance Report (“ESG Report”) for the year ended December 31, 2021. The ESG Report provides an overview of Seanergy’s policies relating to environmental, social and governance commitments of the Company and has been developed in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative Standards (GRI) and the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB).

Stock Purchases by the CEO

Seanergy’s Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, Stamatis Tsantanis, has since August 2022 purchased 300,000 of the Company’s common shares in the open market.

Mr. Tsantanis has also announced his intention to purchase an aggregate of up to $1,000,000 in the Company’s common shares in the open market, following the effective date of the reverse stock split.

Vessel Transactions and Commercial Updates

Acquisition of M/V Paroship

In December 2022, the Company took delivery of the 181,415 dwt Capesize bulk carrier, built in 2012 in Japan, which was renamed M/V Paroship. The M/V Paroship was acquired for a gross purchase price of $31.0 million and was fixed on a T/C with Oldendorff Carriers, with the T/C having a term of about 10 months. The gross daily rate of the T/C is based at a premium over the BCI.

Sale of M/V Goodship and M/V Tradership

In December 2022, the Company entered into agreements for the sale of the oldest vessels in its fleet, the 177,536 dwt M/V Goodship and the 176,925 dwt M/V Tradership for an aggregate price of $36.25 million. The delivery of both vessels took place in February 2023.

M/V Patriotship

In November 2022, the M/V Patriotship was delivered to Glencore for a period of about 12 to about 18 months. The gross daily rate of the T/C is based at a premium over the BCI. In addition, the Company has the option to convert the index-linked rate to a fixed rate based on the prevailing Capesize FFA for the selected period.

M/V Premiership
