“Seanergy delivered a very strong first quarter, with Adjusted EPS of $0.63 and Adjusted EBITDA of $28.1 million, up 251% year-over-year, demonstrating the earnings power of our pure-play Capesize platform, despite the seasonally weakest period of the year. Reflecting on this performance and our disciplined capital return policy, we are pleased to declare our 18th consecutive quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share, bringing cumulative distributions to $2.84 per share since program inception.
“We have meaningfully advanced our fleet renewal program, contracting three additional newbuilding vessels at leading shipyards in China and Japan, and agreeing to sell one of our older Capesize vessels at firm secondhand pricing. Since launch, the program now comprises six modern eco-design newbuildings and three older vessel disposals, a significant upgrade to fleet quality, efficiency and long-term earnings capacity. To date, Seanergy has advanced approximately $69 million from internal funds toward our newbuilding program, while financing for four vessels has already been agreed at attractive terms.
