A market leader with a strong growth profile. AZZ is the leading independent provider of hot dip galvanizing and coil coating solutions to a broad range of end markets. We expect AZZ Precoat Metals’ new manufacturing facility in Washington, Missouri to contribute to top-line growth in fiscal year 2026 while capital expenditures decline. Approximately 75% of the facility’s production is already committed and could generate roughly $50 million to $60 million in revenue on an annualized basis once production is fully ramped.

Fiscal 2026 corporate guidance. AZZ Inc. released financial guidance for fiscal year 2026 and expects sales in the range of $1.625 billion to $1.725 billion, adjusted EBITDA in the range of $360 million to $400 million, and adjusted diluted EPS of $5.50 to $6.10. Fiscal year 2026 guidance includes an increase in the Metal Coatings EBITDA margin expectations to a range of 27% to 32% from 25% to 30%, while Precoat Metals EBITDA margin expectations are unchanged at 17% to 22%.

Euroseas (ESEA) – Updating Estimates Due to Two New Time Charters

Posted on February 4, 2025February 4, 2025 by cpereira@noblefcm.com

Tuesday, February 04, 2025

Euroseas Ltd. was formed on May 5, 2005 under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands to consolidate the ship owning interests of the Pittas family of Athens, Greece, which has been in the shipping business over the past 140 years.

New time charter contracts. Euroseas executed two new time charter contracts for M/V Synergy Antwerp and M/V Synergy Keelung.

Both contracts will take effect at the completion of the vessels’ respective current charters; M/V Synergy Antwerp’s new charter is expected to commence in May 2025, and M/V Synergy Keelung’s new charter is expected to commence in June 2025.

Favorable rates and improved coverage. The new time charters are expected to contribute roughly $57.0 million in EBITDA during the minimum contracted period.

Additionally, Euroseas announced that M/V Synergy Keelung will be retrofitted with energy-saving devices (ESDs) and the upgrade costs will be shared with the charterer.

Tariffs. Pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, the Trump Administration is implementing a 25% additional tariff on imports from Canada and Mexico and a 10% additional tariff on imports from China. The tariffs are effective on February 4. Energy resources from Canada will have a lower 10% tariff. The action is intended to hold Mexico, Canada, and Mexico accountable for their promises of halting illegal immigration and preventing fentanyl and other drugs from entering the United States. The ad valorem duties do not appear to consider the origin of raw materials or to be subject to exemption.

Exposure. In 2021, FreightCar moved its manufacturing activities in the United States to a new state-of-the-art facility in Castanos, Mexico. It steadily grew production capacity to 5,000 rail cars per year with the addition of a fourth production line during the fourth quarter of 2023. Importantly, the company’s competitors, Greenbrier Companies (NYSE-GBX) and Trinity Industries (NYSE-TRN), also have significant manufacturing operations in Mexico that serve the U.S. market.

Release – Seanergy Maritime Expands Fleet with Two Japanese Ships: One Newcastlemax Vessel and One Capesize Vessel

Posted on January 28, 2025January 28, 2025 by dburczyk@noblecapitalmarkets.com

Research News and Market Data on SHIP

GLYFADA, Greece, Jan. 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. (the “Company” or “Seanergy”) (NASDAQ: SHIP) announced today that it has entered into two definitive agreements with unaffiliated third parties in Japan for (i) the purchase of a Japanese-built Newcastlemax vessel and (ii) a bareboat charter with a purchase obligation for one Japanese-built Capesize vessel. The total acquisition cost is approximately $69.0 million.

Acquisition of a Japanese Newcastlemax Vessel

The Newcastlemax was built in 2013 at Imabari Shipbuilding Co., Ltd., Saijo Shipyard, a reputable Japanese shipyard, and has a cargo-carrying capacity of approximately 207,851 deadweight tons (“dwt”). The vessel will be renamed “Meiship” and is expected to be delivered within the first quarter of 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.

Acquisition of a Japanese Capesize Vessel through Bareboat Charter Agreement

The Capesize was built in 2011 at Mitsui SB and has a capacity of 178,459 dwt. Pursuant to the terms of the 6-month bareboat charter with an unaffiliated third party in Japan, Seanergy has advanced a down payment of $4.0 million and will pay an additional $4.0 million upon delivery of the vessel to the Company, as well as a daily bareboat rate of $9,750 over the charter period. The vessel will be renamed “Blueship” and is expected to be delivered within the first quarter of 2025. At the end of the 6-month bareboat period, Seanergy has an obligation to purchase the vessel for $22.5 million.

The purchase price for the two vessels is expected to be funded with a combination of cash on hand and proceeds from credit facilities the Company will seek to enter into.

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

“We are pleased to announce the addition of two high-quality Japanese vessels to Seanergy’s fleet, which will integrate perfectly with our existing pure-play Capesize fleet. These transactions mark a significant milestone in the Company’s strategic fleet expansion strategy, which is designed to strengthen our position within the industry. With a fully delivered fleet of 21 vessels and 3.8 million dwt, we are advancing our competitive edge through disciplined growth, in alignment with our focused capital allocation strategy.

“We expect these acquisitions to further enhance our operational capabilities while reinforcing our commitment to delivering consistent shareholder returns. We believe that the deliveries of the two new vessels are well-timed, based on the higher level of the freight futures for the second half of 2025.

“Despite the seasonal weakness, we remain confident in the long-term outlook of the Capesize sector, driven by favorable market fundamentals, a limited newbuilding orderbook, and what seems to be a sustained global demand for major raw materials.”

Joe Gomes, CFA, Managing Director, Equity Research Analyst, Generalist , Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Joshua Zoepfel, Research Associate, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Raising Price Target. We are maintaining our Outperform rating but raising our price target on KTOS shares to $38 from a prior $30. KTOS shares have performed well since we raised our price target to $30 in mid-November and have spent the last two weeks above our old target. We remain positive on the growth potential for Kratos, both on the defense and commercial sides.

Drivers. We continue to believe KTOS shares benefit from investor belief in the Trump Administration’s determination to increase defense spending and allocate more dollars to areas in Kratos’ wheelhouse, such as unmanned systems, hypersonics, and space. We also expect less friction from a drawn-out continuing resolution.

Diversified Expands Portfolio with Strategic Maverick Natural Resources Acquisition

Posted on January 27, 2025January 27, 2025 by slightbourne@noblecapitalmarkets.com

Key Points:
– $1.275B deal creates $3.8B energy giant with doubled production
– Shifts from gas-heavy to balanced oil/gas portfolio
– 3.3x EBITDA price with $345M cash flow; EIG takes 20% stake

Diversified Energy (NYSE:DEC) made waves in the energy sector Monday with its $1.275 billion acquisition of Maverick Natural Resources, a move that signals a major shift in domestic energy production strategy and could spark further consolidation in the industry.

The deal, which combines two major players in the U.S. energy market, is set to nearly double Diversified’s revenue and significantly boost its free cash flow, according to company statements. Market observers note this could mark the beginning of a new wave of consolidation in the domestic energy sector, as companies seek to build scale and efficiency in an increasingly competitive market.

“This acquisition expands our unique and highly focused energy production company with a complementary portfolio of attractive, high-quality assets,” said Rusty Hutson, Jr., CEO of Diversified. The combined company will boast an enterprise value of approximately $3.8 billion and operate across five distinct regions, with production reaching approximately 1,200 MMcfe/d.

What’s catching investors’ attention is the deal’s attractive valuation at roughly 3.3 times LTM EBITDA, suggesting Diversified may have found value in a market where quality assets often command premium multiples. The transaction structure, including the assumption of $700 million in Maverick debt and the issuance of 21.2 million new shares, appears designed to maintain financial flexibility while expanding the company’s operational footprint.

Perhaps most significantly, the merger dramatically shifts Diversified’s production mix. While the company has historically been heavily weighted toward natural gas with about 85% of production, Maverick brings a more balanced portfolio with 55% liquids production. This diversification could prove crucial in navigating volatile energy markets.

The deal also marks a strategic entry into the coveted Permian Basin, while strengthening Diversified’s position in the Western Anadarko Basin. Industry analysts suggest this multi-basin exposure could provide valuable operational flexibility and help mitigate regional production risks.

EIG, a major energy-focused investor, will emerge as a significant stakeholder, owning approximately 20% of the outstanding shares post-merger. This backing from a sophisticated institutional investor may provide additional validation for Diversified’s growth strategy.

Looking ahead, the combined company is positioned to benefit from substantial operational synergies and improved market presence. With a projected free cash flow of $345 million, the merged entity should have ample resources to fund both growth initiatives and shareholder returns.

The transaction, expected to close in the first half of 2025, still requires shareholder approval and regulatory clearance. However, with unanimous board approval and strong strategic rationale, the deal appears well-positioned to move forward.

For investors watching the energy sector, this merger could signal a broader trend toward consolidation as companies seek to build scale and improve operational efficiency in an evolving market landscape. The success of this integration could set a template for future deals in the domestic energy sector.

Management does not expect the proposed Trump tariffs to impact business negatively as the vast majority of products are consumed in the country in which they are produced. Management did note recent inquiries from potential customers seeking capacity to produce products in the U.S. that customers had previously purchased overseas.

Great Lakes Dredge & Dock (GLDD) – Options for the Acadia, if Needed

Posted on January 23, 2025January 23, 2025 by cpereira@noblefcm.com

Executive Order. Monday, President Trump signed an Executive Order for the temporary withdrawal of all areas on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) from offshore wind leasing as well as a review of the federal government’s leasing and permitting practices for wind projects. This withdrawal temporarily prevents consideration of any area in the OCS for any new or renewed wind energy leasing for the purposes of generation of electricity or any other such use derived from the use of wind.

Impact on GLDD. Notably, nothing in the withdrawal affects rights under existing leases in the withdrawn areas. However, the President has directed the Secretary of the Interior to comprehensively review the ecological, economic, and environmental necessity of terminating or amending any existing wind energy leases. Great Lakes’ two existing projects, Empire Wind and Sunrise Wind, have already undergone extensive governmental review and, presumably, should go forward.
