Shipping rates were even higher than our recently-raised rates. Shipping rates spiked in December. We raised our estimates in February to reflect favorable conditions, but rates surpassed our raised projections. Seanergy was able to extend/reprice six vessels at favorable terms due to higher rates.

Seanergy has fixed 93% of 2024-1Q and 58% of 2024-2Q operating days at attractive prices. We believe cash flow and earnings will be fairly stable due to fixed prices. Seanergy’s exposure to shipping rates increases as the year progresses as charters expire and the company adds vessels to its fleet.

Seanergy Maritime (SHIP) – December-quarter preview


Wednesday, February 21, 2024

Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. is the only pure-play Capesize ship-owner publicly listed in the US. Seanergy provides marine dry bulk transportation services through a modern fleet of Capesize vessels. The Company’s operating fleet consists of 17 Capesize vessels with an average age of approximately 12 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” and its Class B warrants under “SHIPZ”.

Michael Heim, Senior Vice President, Equity Research Analyst, Energy & Transportation, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

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

Shipping rates improved at the end of the quarter. At the end of the third quarter, management indicated that it had locked in 60% of estimated operating days at $21,640/day and that at current spot prices, the average TCE rate for the quarter would be $19,480/day. With spot prices rising, the average TCE rate will most likely be closer to $23,000/day. The addition of a new vessel and limited drydocking will mean increased operating days. Raising the TCE rate in our models increase revenues by approximately $4 million.

Shipping rates have fallen in the 2024-1Q due to seasonal factors such as the Chinese New Year and the rain season in Brazil but remain above historical 1Q levels. We have lowered our revenue projection to reflect lower rates and decreased fees from related parties (Seanergy receives revenues for third party ship management which included abnormal gains in 2023-3Q).

Seanergy Maritime (SHIP) – Seanergy enters into a partnership to develop an alternative fuel ship

A Seanergy division will join the Safecraft Project Consortium to retrofit a ship to use hydrogen as the main energy source. In December of last year, the European Commission founded the project and committed $10 million to the $13.5 million cost. The Safecraft consortium includes a dozen shipping, engineering, and research organizations committed to demonstrate the safety and viability of Sustainable Alternative Fuels (SAFs). Hydrogen will be the main source of electric power generation and will also help with propulsion.


Hydrogen ships are coming. Hydrogen ships (including submarines) have been around for decades, but are becoming more common place in recent years. The MF Hydra, for example, became the first hydrogen-powered ferry in 2021. China has launched a hydrogen ship in 2022 and is developing more. Kawasaki has been approved to develop an engine that will run on hydrogen for use on carriers. Other vessels such as yachts and speedboats use hydrogen fuel cells to provide electricity. Seanergy is the first Greek-based shipping company to form a partnership with Safecraft.

Seanergy Maritime (SHIP) – September-quarter results in line with expectations


Wednesday, November 15, 2023

Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. is the only pure-play Capesize ship-owner publicly listed in the US. Seanergy provides marine dry bulk transportation services through a modern fleet of Capesize vessels. The Company’s operating fleet consists of 17 Capesize vessels with an average age of approximately 12 years and aggregate cargo carrying capacity of approximately 3,011,083 dwt.

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

Seanergy 2023-3Q results were generally in line with expectations. Shipping rates declined as expected but were offset by better-than-expected available shipping days. Operating costs and bottom-line results were also near expectations.

The company has fixed additional rates for the upcoming quarter and realized rates should rise. The company has locked in 60% of expected shipping days at an average rate that is roughly 25% above the average realized rate for the most recent quarter. Available days will go up with a new charter-in.

Seanergy Maritime (SHIP) – Third Quarter Preview


Friday, November 03, 2023

Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. is the only pure-play Capesize ship-owner publicly listed in the US. Seanergy provides marine dry bulk transportation services through a modern fleet of Capesize vessels. The Company’s operating fleet consists of 17 Capesize vessels with an average age of approximately 12 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” and its Class B warrants under “SHIPZ”.

Michael Heim, Senior Vice President, Equity Research Analyst, Energy & Transportation, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

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

Lower shipping rates will push revenues down modestly. We have lowered our 2023-3Q revenue projections modestly to reflect a drop in shipping rates in the later half of the quarter. After a sharp decline in pricing in 2022, the dry bulk shipping market has shown signs of improving several times only to have pricing slip back down. Such was the case in the third quarter which began the period on a high note only to see pricing fall. Issues in China, the war in Ukraine, and general economic malaise are the causes cited most often for pricing weakness.

Lowering non-contracted shipping rates reduces our revenue projections, earnings projections largely unchanged. We have lowered our assumed shipping rate for non-contracted shipping days in the quarter to $16,500 from $17,000. In response, we have lowered our revenue estimate to $24.4 million from $24.8 million. Lower revenues, combined with an increase in stock-based compensation due to a higher SHIP stock price, were offset by the elimination of losses on the extinguishment of debt. The result is only a modest change to our EPS estimate which now calls for an adjusted EPS loss of $0.15 versus our previous estimate of $0.16 per share. We expect the company to report results on November 14th.

Seanergy Maritime (SHIP) – Results better than expected and should improve in upcoming quarters


Thursday, August 03, 2023

Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. is the only pure-play Capesize ship-owner publicly listed in the US. Seanergy provides marine dry bulk transportation services through a modern fleet of Capesize vessels. The Company’s operating fleet consists of 17 Capesize vessels with an average age of approximately 12 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” and its Class B warrants under “SHIPZ”.

Michael Heim, Senior Vice President, Equity Research Analyst, Energy & Transportation, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

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

Seanergy reported 2023-2Q results slightly above our expectations. Seanergy reported net revenues of $28.3 million on an average TCE rate of $18,708/day versus our estimate of $26.4 million and $18,000/day, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA and EPS were $12.7 million and $0.18 versus our estimate of $10.6 million and $0.12. Higher-than-expected results reflect strong utilization rates, high interest income, and the positive effect of debt restructuring. 

The company is setting up for a strong 4Q and 2024. The company has locked in 53% of 2023-3Q shipping days at a rate of $16,710/day, slightly below 3Q rates. However, it has locked in 21% of 2023-2H days at rates above $20,000/day, implying that locked in rates will be improving in 4Q. In addition, Seanergy will take possession of a new ship in 4Q (with option to buy in a year) which management estimates will receive a 20% premium to Baltic Capesize Index prices.

Seanergy Maritime (SHIP) – Seanergy repurchases shares and acquires a new vessel amid recent shipping rate weakness


Friday, July 07, 2023

Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. is the only pure-play Capesize ship-owner publicly listed in the US. Seanergy provides marine dry bulk transportation services through a modern fleet of Capesize vessels. The Company’s operating fleet consists of 17 Capesize vessels with an average age of approximately 12 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” and its Class B warrants under “SHIPZ”.

Michael Heim, Senior Vice President, Equity Research Analyst, Energy & Transportation, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

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

Seanergy repurchased approximately 2% of its shares outstanding at an average price of $4.35 per share. The shares were repurchased at an 11.2% discount to its July 5th stock price. The shares fell approximately 5% on July 6th, a reflection of weakness in the overall market more than the share repurchase announcement. SHIP reported a cash position of $20 million at the end of the first quarter, adequate capital to finance the $1.6 million share repurchase.

Seanergy also announced an agreement to acquire a vessel through a bareboat-in charter. A bareboat-in charter allows the acquirer to take possession of a boat for which no crew or provisions are included as part of the agreement. Seanergy will pay $7 million and $9,000/day for the 12-month charter and has an option to purchase the vessel for $20.2 million. Despite Capesize Drybulk shipping rates declining in recent weeks, they agreement should provide a modest boost to near-term cash flow generation. We would expect the company to execute its option to purchase the vessel and become the 18th ship in Seanergy’s fleet.

Seanergy Maritime (SHIP) – Results generally in line once one-time gain removed


Friday, May 26, 2023

Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. is the only pure-play Capesize ship-owner publicly listed in the US. Seanergy provides marine dry bulk transportation services through a modern fleet of Capesize vessels. The Company’s operating fleet consists of 17 Capesize vessels with an average age of approximately 12 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” and its Class B warrants under “SHIPZ”.

Michael Heim, Senior Vice President, Equity Research Analyst, Energy & Transportation, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

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

Revenues fell on lower shipping rates in line with expectations. Seanergy reported 2023-1Q revenues of $18.03m versus $29.7m last year but above our $17.4m projection. The average TCE rate for the quarter was $11,005/d versus $19,357/d causing the decline. Seanergy continues to receive above-market pricing due to its modern fleet and use of scrubbers. Management noted that TCE rates have risen above $18,000 allowing it to lock-in or extend ship rates. Seanergy has fixed approximately 75% of 2023-2Q available shipping days and estimates an average TCE of $18,870 based on forward rates.

Bottom line results reflect lower revenues. Seanergy reported 2023-1Q adjusted EBITDA of $3.9m versus $16.7m. Results were above our projection of $0.0m. Better-than-expected results reflect slightly higher revenues combined with slightly lower depreciation and financing costs. Seanergy reported 2023-1Q adjusted net income of ($0.3m) or ($0.02) per share. However, the company did not exclude an $8.1m gain on sale. Excluding the gain, adjusted net income would have been ($8.4m) or ($0.47) per share versus our ($12.4m) or ($0.69) per share estimate.

Seanergy Maritime (SHIP) – Earnings Preview


Friday, May 19, 2023

Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. is the only pure-play Capesize ship-owner publicly listed in the US. Seanergy provides marine dry bulk transportation services through a modern fleet of Capesize vessels. The Company’s operating fleet consists of 17 Capesize vessels with an average age of approximately 12 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.

Michael Heim, Senior Vice President, Equity Research Analyst, Energy & Transportation, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

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

Seanergy Maritimes will report first quarter results next week. We expect results to continue a pattern of declining cash flow and earnings in response to lower shipping rates. That said, rates should be higher than the $10,191 average TCE guidance given in March 14th as shipping rates bottomed out in February. In addition, operating days will be up with more than 17 ships (Goodship and Tradership sold during the quarter as company modernizes the fleet).

We are adjusting our estimates to remove a one-time gain of $8 million on the sale of a ship. We now expect the company to report an adjusted loss of $12.4 million or $0.69 per share. Including the gain and non-cash G&A expenses, we look for the company to report a loss of $4.9 million or $0.27 per share. Our adjusted EBITDA forecast is for a loss of $8.4 million (a reported loss of $0.9 million).

Seanergy Maritime (SHIP) – Results fall on lower shipping rates but Seanergy is finding ways to offset the decline


Wednesday, March 15, 2023

Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. is the only pure-play Capesize ship-owner publicly listed in the US. Seanergy provides marine dry bulk transportation services through a modern fleet of Capesize vessels. The Company’s operating fleet consists of 17 Capesize vessels with an average age of approximately 12 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.

Michael Heim, CFA, Senior Research Analyst, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

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

Fourth-quarter revenues fell sharply once again. Shipping rates continued to decline. The average TCE rate fell 53% year over year and 15% quarter over quarter. Seanergy was able to partially offset the impact of lower rates because of the net addition of ships in 2022 and thus a higher number of operating days. The company was also able to generate new revenues by providing management services to United Maritimes Corporation, which was spun off in July.

Lower revenues partially offset by cost reductions and share repurchases. Daily vessel operating costs were $6,651 during the quarter, down from $7,184 last year and $7,593 in the third quarter. Financing costs were below expectations despite the investment in new ships. Management has been active refinancing debt when possible. Of particular note was the decrease in diluted share count due to the repurchase of convertible notes.

Seanergy Maritime (SHIP) – Estimates and Price Target Adjusted for 10-1 Reverse Split and Continued Shipping Rate Weakness


Tuesday, February 21, 2023

Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. is the only pure-play Capesize ship-owner publicly listed in the US. Seanergy provides marine dry bulk transportation services through a modern fleet of Capesize vessels. The Company’s operating fleet consists of 17 Capesize vessels with an average age of approximately 12 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” and its Class B warrants under “SHIPZ”.

Michael Heim, CFA, Senior Research Analyst, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

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

Seanergy completes a 10-1 reverse stock split effective February 16, 2023.  With the reverse split, the number of outstanding shares is reduced to 18,191,647 from 181,918,471 and then adjusted for the cancellation of fractional shares. We are raising our earnings per share estimates to reflect the change, essentially raising our numbers by ten fold with some adjustment for recent shipping rate weakness.

Our price target increases slightly less than ten fold. We are adjusting our price target to $10 from $1.50 to reflect the reverse stock split. Our PO was increased less than ten times as we have adjusted our models to reflect weaker current shipping rates. In addition, we have changed our valuation methodology from a multiple of next year’s ebitda to a discounted cash flow model.
