Newbuild program expands to five vessels. Seanergy announced the acquisition of two Japanese newbuild scrubber-fitted 181,500 dwt Capesize vessels, expanding the total newbuild program to five vessels, including four Capesize vessels and one Newcastlemax, with a combined contract value of approximately $384 million. The first Japanese vessel is a direct purchase with delivery expected between Q2 and Q3 2027, while the second is structured as a 10-year bareboat-in contract with a Q1 2029 delivery and a purchase option beginning at year five. The combined cost of both Japanese vessels is approximately $158 million.

Sale of M/V Squireship. Seanergyagreed to sell the 2010-built, 170,018 dwt M/V Squireship  to a related party for $29.5 million with delivery expected between late April and early June 2026. The transaction is expected to generate net proceeds of approximately $13.5 million after debt repayment and produce an accounting gain of roughly $4 million. The sale is consistent with management’s capital recycling strategy, monetizing an older vessel at an attractive valuation while funding the newbuilding program and reducing average fleet age.
