Seanergy Maritime Announces New Sustainability-Linked Loan Facility and Signs the Call to Action for Shipping Decarbonization

October 26, 2021 – Athens, Greece – Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. (“Seanergy” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SHIP) announced today that it has received a commitment letter from a leading European bank for a sustainability-linked loan facility to finance part of the acquisition cost of the M/V Worldship.

Moreover, Seanergy became a signatory to the Call to Action for Shipping Decarbonization (“Call to Action”), a global coalition of over 190 industry leaders and organizations representing the entire maritime value chain.

Financing of the M/V Worldship

Pursuant to the commitment letter, the sustainability-linked loan will be for an amount of $16.85 million and will amortize over a five-year term with a final balloon payment of $6.1 million at maturity. The interest rate will be 3.05% plus LIBOR per annum, which can be further improved based on certain emission reduction thresholds. The approval is subject to definitive documentation, which we expect to be completed within November 2021.

Call to Action for Shipping
Decarbonization

The Call to Action was developed by a task force convened by the Getting To Zero Coalition in September 2021 and will be delivered to world Governments in November 2021, in advance of the UN Climate Change Conference (“COP26”) in Glasgow. The signatories to this Call to Action firmly believe that an equitable decarbonization of the maritime supply chain by 2050 is both possible and necessary.

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

“We are very pleased to announce another innovative financing for Seanergy which is consistent both with our conservative leverage approach, as well as our commitment to our sustainability objectives. The proceeds of this new loan will further enhance our strong liquidity position. At the same time, we are excited to actively participate along with global industry leaders in the Call to Action, a significant initiative aiming to contribute to our industry’s decarbonization targets.

Seanergy has long ago prioritized its ESG agenda and has implemented concrete actions and collaborations upon this matter. In this context, we are encouraging stakeholder engagement on all levels, including that of our financiers and governmental organizations, as means to support the common goal of a “greener” shipping.”

Seanergy Maritime (SHIP)
Another Cape Acquisition Expands Fleet to 17

Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. is the only pure-play Capesize shipping company listed in the US capital markets.
Seanergy provides marine dry bulk transportation services through a modern fleet of Capesize vessels. Upon delivery of the M/V Dukeship, the Company’s operating fleet will consist of 17 Capesize vessels with an average age of 11.5 years and aggregate cargo carrying capacity of approximately 3,011,083 dwt.
The Company is incorporated in the Marshall Islands and has executive offices in Glyfada, Greece. The Company’s common shares trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “SHIP”, its Class A warrants under “SHIPW” and its Class B warrants under “SHIPZ”.

Poe Fratt, Senior Research Analyst, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

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

Cape acquisition expands Cape fleet to 17. A Cape, built in 2010 in Japan, will be acquired for $34.3 million in mid-November and renamed the Dukeship. A BWTS has been installed and a survey was recently completed so uptime should be high over next two years. The acquisition also expands overall operating leverage; each $1.0k/day change in Cape TCE rates has a $5.9 million EBITDA impact.


Fine tuning 2021 EBITDA estimate to $87.3 million, but increasing 2022 EBITDA estimate to $102.2 million from $97.5 million based on TCE rates of $24.5k/day.  Higher opex drags down 3Q2021 results, but acquisition pushes up our 4Q2021E EBITDA to $40.3 million based on TCE rates of $35.0k/day. Visibility is limited into next year with only three Capes fixed at a TCE rate north of $30.0k/day, or …

Seanergy Maritime Announces Acquisition of its 17th Capesize Vessel with Prompt Delivery and Completion of Previously-Announced Vessel Sale

 

Seanergy Maritime Announces Acquisition of its 17^th Capesize Vessel with Prompt Delivery and Completion of Previously-Announced Vessel Sale

October 19, 2021 – Glyfada, Greece – Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SHIP) announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement with an unaffiliated third party to purchase a Capesize vessel (the “Vessel”). In addition, the Company has recently completed the sale and delivery of its oldest Capesize vessel, the M/V Leadership, 2001-built, to its new owners.

The Vessel was built in 2010 at a reputable shipyard in Japan, has a cargo-carrying capacity of approximately 181,500 deadweight tons (“dwt”) and will be renamed M/V Dukeship. The M/V Dukeship is expected to be delivered within November 2021, subject to the satisfaction of certain customary closing conditions. Following her delivery, Seanergy’s fleet will increase to 17 Capesize vessels with an aggregate cargo capacity exceeding 3 million dwt.

The Vessel is fitted with a ballast water treatment system, while the special survey was recently completed by the current owner and, therefore, the Company does not anticipate incurring any significant off-hire or capital expenditures for this Vessel for the next two years.

The purchase price of $34.3 million is expected to be funded with cash on hand.

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

“I am very pleased to announce our 7^th Japanese capesize acquisition within 2021. Our total investment since the beginning of our fleet expansion program in 2020 has reached $205 million.

The addition of the M/V Dukeship will further enhance our operating leverage as a leading pure-play Capesize company and, given the Vessel’s prompt delivery in a strong Capesize market, the acquisition is expected to be immediately accretive for our shareholders.

The spot Capesize market currently exceeds $60,000 per day, rendering the latest addition a high revenue-generating investment, while the forward curve indicates that the positive market trend will be sustained for the next years.”

Grindrod Shipping (GRIN)
Expected Solid Finish to Year Warrants Higher Target

Grindrod Shipping, originated in South Africa with roots dating back to 1910. The company is based in Singapore, with offices around the world including, London, Durban, Cape Town, Tokyo and Rotterdam. Its primary listing is on Nasdaq and secondary listing on the JSE.

Grindrod Shipping owns and operates a diversified fleet of owned, long-term chartered and joint-venture dry-bulk and liquid-bulk vessels across the globe.

Poe Fratt, Senior Research Analyst, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

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

Dry bulk market thesis intact. Hard to avoid volatility, but intermediate outlook remains promising.  Dry bulk TCE rates have moved higher on firm demand plus port congestion and coal shortages. Also, the order book remains muted, and the new carbon emission regulations (EEXI) in January 2023 could trigger slow steaming that effectively lowers supply. While Chinese industry could be curtailed ahead of 2022 Winter Olympics and volatility/seasonality is possible, there is no doubt that dry bulk bulk rates have been higher than expected. Comments from last Tuesday’s Capital Link Dry Bulk Sector Panel reinforced our positive view.


3Q2021 forward cover was high at 75%, but commercial strategy should capture higher 4Q2021 TCE rates. Increasing 2021 EBITDA estimate to $182.4 million from $158.8 million.  Our 3Q2021 EBITDA estimate increases slightly to $61.9 million based on TCE rates of $31.3k/day for Supras/Ultras and $25.9k/day for Handys. Our 4Q2021 EBITDA moves much higher to $65.2 million based on…
