August 2, 2023 – Athens, Greece – Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. (“Seanergy” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SHIP), announced today its financial results for the second quarter
and six months ended June 30, 2023. The Company also declared a quarterly dividend of $0.025 per common share for the second quarter of 2023.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the Company generated Net Revenues of $28.3 million, compared to $32.8 million in the second quarter of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $15.7 million, compared to $17.3

2 All references to number of shares, share prices, warrant prices and “per share” figures in this document are adjusted to reflect the one-for-ten reverse stock split effected on
February 16, 2023.
3 TCE rate is a non-GAAP measure. Please see the reconciliation below of TCE rate to net revenues from vessels, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure.
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company generated Net Revenues of $46.4 million, compared to $62.5 million in the same period of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA for the six months was $19.6 million, compared
to $34.2 million for the same period of 2022. Net Loss and Adjusted Net Income for the six months were $3.5 million and $3.1 million, respectively, compared to Net Income of $9.6 million and Adjusted Net Income of $14.8 million in the respective
period of 2022. The daily TCE4 rate of the fleet for the first six-month period of 2023 was $14,756, compared to $21,207 in the same period of 2022. The average daily OPEX was $6,921 compared to $6,510 of the respective period of 2022.
Cash and cash-equivalents and restricted cash, as of June 30, 2023, stood at $22.5 million. Shareholders’ equity at the end of the second quarter was $220.9 million. Long-term debt (senior loans, a convertible note
and other financial liabilities) net of deferred charges stood at $231.4 million, while the book value of the fleet was $422.6 million.
Stamatis Tsantanis, the Company’s Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, stated:
“Despite a challenging and volatile market environment, our financial results for the second quarter of 2023 were profitable. In line with our commitment to providing consistent returns to our shareholders,
regardless of prevailing market conditions, we have declared a quarterly dividend of $0.025 per common share, while we also completed $1.6 million in share repurchases at an average price of about $4.35, which is 23% lower than our stock’s current
trading price. We remain optimistic that the favorable Capesize market outlook and Seanergy’s positioning within the segment will allow us to continue rewarding our shareholders.
“In terms of our fleet’s commercial performance for this quarter, we accomplished a time charter equivalent rate of $18,700. This figure represents a noteworthy premium of about 20% compared to the $15,600 BCI
average during the same period. Our strategic decision to fix approximately 30% of our fleet days at daily levels above $20,000 played a pivotal role in mitigating the volatility of our revenues. Moreover, I firmly believe that the high quality of
our fleet will allow Seanergy to consistently earn a premium over the BCI. The recent agreements for two floating rate time charters, both secured at a premium to the index, are a good demonstration of our vessels’ competitiveness and I am
confident in the sustainability of our earnings power.
“Moving on to other developments, during the second quarter we agreed to charter-in on a bareboat basis a 2011-built Newcastlemax vessel, for a period of 12 months with delivery to our fleet anticipated by the end of
the year. At the maturity of the time charter, Seanergy has the option to purchase the vessel for $20.2 million, bringing the total cash outlay, including the advance payments and bareboat hire payments, to approximately $30.5 million. This
represents a very attractive notional acquisition price, while Seanergy will have the opportunity to operate a larger vessel earning the highest premium to the BCI recorded so far on a fleetwide basis. As a result, I believe this to be a very
lucrative deal that will yield high returns on capital for the Company.
“With regards to financing transactions, we have entered two sale and leaseback agreements with Japanese counterparties and a new loan with an existing European lender, totaling $53.8 million, to refinance existing
indebtedness. The underlying interest cost is lower, partly offsetting the increase in reference rates, while we have added net liquidity of approximately $15 million. Following these transactions, we have addressed all debt maturities until Q2
2025.
“Lastly for a brief market comment, since the beginning of the year we have seen a material increase of more than 7% in ton-mile demand for the major raw materials of iron ore, coal and bauxite. However, the freight
market has not performed accordingly. The main reason is the reduced port congestion to historical low levels, which has increased the effective supply of ships. At the same time, the larger ore carriers on the C3 (Brazil-China) route are operating
at close to maximum speeds, which also increases the DWT adjusted speed of the fleet and consequently their respective CO2 emissions. We believe that towards the end of the year we will see congestion reaching historical averages in-line with usual
seasonal patterns, while beginning in 2024 more stringent regulations and carbon levies will force operators to decrease speeds to eco levels across the board. As these supply factors start normalizing, I would expect to see charter rates that
reflect the healthy demand more closely.
“Seanergy is in a favorable position to perform well amidst what we believe is the best Capesize market fundamentals seen over the past three decades and we will continue to be focused on maintaining high shareholder
returns and the reduction of our carbon footprint.”

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.

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, loss on extinguishment of debt, and the non-recurring gains 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.

To derive Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) and Adjusted Earnings/(Loss) Per Share, both non-GAAP financial measures, 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 2023 TCE Rate Guidance:
As of the date hereof, approximately 53% of the Company fleet’s expected operating days in the third quarter of 2023 have been fixed at an estimated TCE rate of approximately $16.710.Assuming that for the remaining
operating days of our index-linked time charters, the respective vessels’ TCE rate will be equal to the average Forward Freight Agreement (“FFA”) rate of $14,930 per day (based on the FFA curve as of July 27, 2023), our estimated TCE rate for the
third quarter of 2023 will be approximately $16,1005. The following table provides the breakdown of index-linked charters and fixed-rate charters in the second quarter of 2023:

Second Quarter and Recent Developments:
Dividend Distribution for Q1 2023 and Declaration of Q2 2023 Dividend
On July 6, 2023, the Company paid the previously announced quarterly dividend of $0.025 per common share, for the first quarter of 2023, to all shareholders of record as of June 22, 2023.
On August 1, 2023, the Company also declared a cash dividend of $0.025 per common share for the second quarter of 2023 payable on or about October 6, 2023 to all shareholders of record as of September 22, 2023.
Buyback of Common Shares
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company repurchased 362,161 common shares in open market transactions at an average price of $4.35 per share for an aggregate consideration of $1.6 million pursuant to the $5.0
million share repurchase program commenced in October 2021, as extended to date. All the abovementioned shares were cancelled and removed from our share capital as of the date of this release. As of July 31, 2023, the Company has 19,648,956 common
shares issued and outstanding.
Vessel Transactions and Commercial Updates
M/V Cape Eternity tbr Titanship - Bareboat Agreement for a Newcastlemax bulk carrier and time charter agreement
On May 9, 2023, the Company entered a 12-month bareboat charter agreement with an unaffiliated third party in Japan for a 2011-built Newcastlemax dry bulk vessel of 207,855 dwt built at Nantong COSCO KHI Ship
Engineering Co Ltd (NACKS) which will be renamed Titanship. Pursuant to the terms of the bareboat charter, Seanergy has advanced a down payment of $3.5 million upon signing of the agreement and will pay an additional $3.5 million on delivery of the
vessel to the Company, as well as a daily bareboat rate of $9,000 over the charter period. Delivery is estimated to take place between August and December 2023, while at the end of the 12-month bareboat period Seanergy has an option to purchase the
vessel for $20.2 million.
Upon delivery, the M/V Titanship will commence a time charter agreement with a European charterer for a period of minimum 11 to about 14 months at a daily charter hire based on a significant premium over the BCI. In
addition, the time charter provides the Company with the option to convert the variable charter hire to a fixed rate for a period between 2 and 12 months priced at the prevailing Capesize FFA rate for the selected period.
M/V Championship - New time charter agreement
On April 24, 2023, the M/V Championship commenced employment under a new time charter agreement at an index linked rate, at a premium over the BCI, with the same charterer. The new time charter has a duration of
about 24 to about 30 months and a new scrubber profit share scheme has been introduced, with Seanergy receiving the majority of the monetary benefit.
5 This guidance is based on certain assumptions and there can be no assurance that these TCE rate 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 rate realized will vary with the underlying index, and for the purposes of this guidance, the TCE rate
assumed for the remaining operating days of the quarter for an index-linked T/C is equal to the average FFA rate of $14,930 based on the curve of July 27, 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 rate will be reduced accordingly.
M/V Partnership - Time charter extension
On June 15, 2023, the charterer of the M/V Partnership agreed to exercise the second optional period extending the time charter for a duration of about 11 months to a maximum of 13 months. The extension period will
commence after the end of the first optional period which is expected between August and November 2023. For the extended period, the fuel profit share of the Company is increased, while all other terms of the time charter remain the same.
M/V Lordship - Time charter extension
On June 27, 2023, the charterer of the M/V Lordship agreed to extend the time charter agreement in direct continuation from the previous agreement. The new time charter will commence on October 1, 2023 for a duration
until August 1, 2024 or September 30, 2024. For the extended period, the fuel profit share of the Company is increased, while all other terms of the time charter remain the same.
Financing Updates
M/V Lordship - Sale & leaseback agreement
On April 24, 2023, the Company entered into a $19.0 million sale and leaseback agreement to partially refinance the loan facility with Alpha Bank, secured by the M/V Lordship, as well as the M/Vs Squireship and
Friendship. The M/V Lordship was sold and chartered back on a bareboat basis for a period of 4 years and 5 months. The Company has continuous options to repurchase the vessel at predetermined prices, following the second anniversary of the bareboat
charter. At the end of the bareboat period, Seanergy has the option to repurchase the vessel for $7.8 million. The $19.0 million financing bears interest of 3-month term SOFR plus 3.00% per annum. The new interest rate is 50 bps lower than that of
the previous financing, while approximately $6.6 million of additional liquidity was released to the Company through the refinancing. The charterhire principal amortizes over 53 consecutive monthly installments, averaging approximately $0.2 million
each.
M/V Championship - Sustainability linked loan facility
On April 18, 2023, the Company amended and restated the loan facility with Danish Ship Finance secured by the M/Vs Fellowship and Premiership to refinance the sale and leaseback agreement for the M/V Championship.
The amended and restated facility includes a new tranche of $15.8 million secured by the M/V Championship, while a sustainability adjustment mechanism was introduced in respect of the underlying interest rate of the facility. The new tranche has a
five-year term and amortizes over 20 consecutive quarterly payments, averaging approximately $0.6 million per quarter. The interest rate is 2.65% plus 3-month Term SOFR and can fluctuate by 0.05% based on certain emission reduction thresholds.
M/V Knightship Sale & leaseback agreement
On April 6, 2023, the Company sold and chartered back the M/V Knightship on a bareboat basis for a six-year period, refinancing a previous sale and leaseback agreement with AVIC. The Company has continuous options to
repurchase the vessel at predetermined prices, following the second anniversary of the bareboat charter. At the end of the six-year bareboat period, the ownership of the vessel will be transferred to Seanergy at no additional cost. The $19.0
million charterhire principal bears interest of 3-month term SOFR plus 2.80% per annum. The new interest rate is 120 bps lower than that of the previous financing, while approximately $8.5 million of additional liquidity was released to the Company
through the refinancing. The charterhire principal amortizes over 72 consecutive monthly installments, averaging approximately $0.3 million each.
