Management Commentary


“We are happy to report our 3^rd^quarter and 9 months results for 2022. The third quarter was a positive one, albeit a bit volatile. Whilst the market was weaker than the previous quarters in general, it remained at healthy levels. The Company primarily operates and employs the vessels in the spot market and occasionally on short term time charters so the rates we have seen do correlate with the market swings. The weakness and volatility that we saw in the third quarter carries on in the fourth quarter however, we expect and hope the market will start improving towards the end on the first quarter in 2023. As the year ends and especially during the first quarter the market usually experiences a seasonal softening that relates to various weather and trading factors. The year 2023 will be a very interesting one for the development of the industry and the adjustments to the new environmental regulations.

“As previously communicated, the Company has three fuel-efficient vessels on order that will be delivered to us in 2024; we expect those vessels to have improved consumption figures and environmental profiles, giving them a competitive edge and proving to be well placed to operate in an improving market. The Company cooperates with various third parties, such as classification societies and shipyards, in the studies of decarbonization strategies and alternative fuels. We hope these studies will give us a better understanding on the various developments in the new environmental regulations. The Company is studying the viability, availability, along with economic and operational factors of alternative fuels for ships such as methanol, LNG, and ammonia in order to prepare for the future and make educated cost-effective investment decisions. As we all know in these kinds of decisions a lot of factors come in to play such as the price of alternative fuels, the availability of production and supply, the power output and the cost of alternatively powered vessels in comparison to conventional ones.

“The Company decided to proceed with several of dry-docking operations by the end of 2022. One dry-docking was completed in the 3^rd^ quarter and one in the beginning of the 4th quarter, with the expectation to complete another three dry-dockings before the year ends. Major works include general maintenance and upgrading, the installation of BWTS systems, the application of hull coatings, and other general repairs. We proceeded with the dry-dockings during the softer market conditions, hoping that the vessels will operate uninterrupted in the coming quarters.

“We remain optimistic with the prospects of the market on the medium and longer term. Notwithstanding that we remain vigilant of the market conditions, trade patterns and demand shifts; at the moment, the coal and grain markets seem to provide support to our sector. There is general optimism regarding the further reopening of the Chinese economy in 2023 as well as a return to the normalization of the real estate and construction industry which should have a positive impact on our business.

“We continue to observe closely the development of hostilities in Ukraine, as this fact affects trading in the Black Sea as well as changes in trade patterns for coal and grains in Europe. A solid factor for optimism comes from the supply side, as the orderbook for new dry bulk vessels, remains very low. The expected fleet growth for the next few years, taking into account potential scrapping, should be minimal. Therefore, overall, we are hopeful that the market fundamentals will remain positive and stave off a global recession.

We stand firm in our commitment to deliver shareholder value, we believe we are taking advantage of the right investment opportunities as well as proper steps in moving the Company forward, to an ever-changing market and a constantly evolving industry.”

Recent Developments


Contract for new building vessels


On April 29, 2022, the Company signed a contract for the construction and purchase of one fuel-efficient bulk carrier of about 64,000 dwt. The vessel will be built at Nihon Shipyard Co. in Japan and is scheduled to be delivered during the first half of 2024. The total consideration for the construction of the vessel is approximately $37.5 million, which the Company intends to finance with a combination of debt and equity. In May 2022 the Company paid the 1st instalment of $7.4 million.

On May 13, 2022, the Company has signed two contracts for the construction and purchase of two fuel-efficient bulk carriers of about 64,000 dwt each. The sister vessels will be built at Nantong COSCO KHI Ship Engineering Co. in China with the first one scheduled to be delivered during the third quarter of 2024 and the second one during the fourth quarter of 2024. The total consideration for the construction of both vessels is approximately $70.3 million, which the Company intends to finance with a combination of debt and equity. In May 2022 the Company paid the 1st instalment of $13.8 million and in November 2022 paid the 2^nd^ instalment of $6.9 million for both vessels under construction.

Debt financing


In August 2022, the Company reached an agreement with First Citizens Bank & Trust Company (formerly known as CIT Bank N.A.) for a deed of accession, amendment and restatement of the “CIT loan facility” (as referred at 2021 Annual Report) by the accession of an additional borrower in order to increase the loan facility from a total of $34.25 million to $52.25 million, by a top up loan amount of $18 million for the purpose of financing vessel Orion Globe and for general corporate and working capital purposes of all the borrowers and Globus. The CIT loan facility (including the new top up loan amount) is now further secured by a first preferred mortgage over the vessel Orion Globe. Furthermore, the benchmark rate was amended from LIBOR to SOFR and the applicable margin from 3.75% to 3.35% for the whole CIT loan facility. The Company also entered into a new swap agreement in order for the additional borrower to enter into hedging transactions (separately from those entered by the other borrowers) with First Citizens Bank & Trust Company (formerly known as CIT Bank N.A.).

Impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s Business


The spread of the COVID-19 virus, which has been declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in 2020 has caused substantial disruptions in the global economy and the shipping industry as well as significant volatility in the financial markets, the severity and duration of which remains uncertain.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to unfold and may continue to have a negative effect on the Company’s business, financial performance and the results of its operations. As a result, many of the Company’s estimates and assumptions required increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, the Company’s estimates may change in future periods. Besides reducing demand for cargo, coronavirus may functionally limit the amount of cargo that the Company and its competitors are able to move because countries worldwide have imposed quarantine checks on arriving vessels, which have caused delays in loading and delivery of cargoes.

The Company has evaluated the impact of current economic situation on the recoverability of the carrying amount of its vessels. For the first nine months of 2022 and 2021 the Company evaluated the carrying amount of its vessels and concluded that no impairment of its vessels should be recorded, or previously recognized impairment should be reversed.

Conflicts

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine, which commenced in February 2022, has disrupted supply chains and caused instability and significant volatility in the global economy. Much uncertainty remains regarding the global impact of the conflict in Ukraine, and it is possible that such instability, uncertainty and resulting volatility could significantly increase the costs of the Company and adversely affect its business, including the ability to secure charters and financing on attractive terms, and as a result, adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operation and cash flows. Currently there is no direct effect on the Company’s operations.

Revenue

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, our Revenues reached $15.9 million and $12.8 million, respectively.

Revenue

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, our Revenues reached $53.5 million and $24.8 million, respectively.

Daily Time Charter Equivalent rate (TCE) for the nine-month period of 2022 was $20,840 per vessel per day against $13,325 per vessel per day during the same period in 2021, corresponding to an increase of 56%, which is attributed to the better conditions throughout the bulk market for the first nine months of 2022. Furthermore, the Company operated a fleet of 9 vessels during the first nine months of 2022 compared to an average of 6.7 vessels for the same period in 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA does not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income/(loss) or cash generated from operations, as determined by IFRS, and our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under IFRS.

| 4 |

| --- |

Adjusted EBITDA is included herein because it is a basis upon which we assess our financial performance and because we believe that it presents useful information to investors regarding a company’s ability to service and/or incur indebtedness and it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under IFRS. Some of these limitations are:

· Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures<br>or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
· Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest<br>expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
--- ---
· Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in or<br>cash requirements for our working capital needs; and
--- ---
· Other companies in our industry may calculate<br>Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
--- ---

Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business.


The following table sets forth a reconciliationof Adjusted EBITDA to net income and net cash generated from operating activities for the periods presented:

Results of Operations

Our revenues consist of earnings under the charters on which we employ our vessels. We believe that the important measures for analysing trends in the results of our operations consist of the following:


Revenues


The Company generates its revenues from charterers from the charter hire of its vessels. Vessels are chartered using time charters, where a contract is entered into for the use of a vessel for a specific period of time and a specified daily charter hire rate. If a time charter agreement exists and collection of the related revenue is reasonably assured, revenue is recognised on a straight - line basis over the period of the time charter. Such revenues are treated in accordance with IFRS 16 as lease income, while the portion of time charter revenues related to technical management services are recognized in accordance with IFRS 15. Associated broker commissions are recognised on a pro-rata basis over the duration of the period of the time charter. Deferred revenue relates to cash received prior to the financial position date and is related to revenue earned after such date.

For time charters that qualify as leases, the Company is required to disclose lease and non-lease components of Voyage revenue. The revenue earned under time charters is not negotiated in its two separate components, but as a whole. For purposes of determining the standalone selling price of the vessel lease and technical management service components of the Company’s time charters, the Company concluded that the residual approach would be the most appropriate method to use given that vessel lease rates are highly variable depending on shipping market conditions, the duration of such charters and the age of the vessel. The Company believes that the standalone transaction price attributable to the technical management service component, including crewing services, is more readily determinable than the price of the lease component and, accordingly, the price of the service component is estimated using data provided by its technical department, which consist of the crew expenses, maintenance and consumable costs and was approximately $13,612 and $9,829 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This increase is attributable to the increase of the fleet from an average of 6.7 vessels during the first nine months of 2021 to 9 vessels for the same period in 2022. The lease component that is disclosed then is calculated as the difference between Voyage revenue and the non-lease component revenue and was $39,565 and $14,844 for the periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The Company enters into consultancy agreements with other companies for the purpose of providing consultancy services. For these services the Company receives a fee. The total income from these fees is classified in the income statement component of the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income under management & consulting fee income.

Time Charters


A time charter is a contract for the use of a vessel for a specific period of time during which the charterer pays substantially all of the voyage expenses, including port and canal charges and the cost of bunkers (fuel oil), but the vessel owner pays vessel operating expenses, including the cost of crewing, insuring, repairing and maintaining the vessel, the costs of spares and consumable stores and tonnage taxes. Time charter rates are usually set at fixed rates during the term of the charter. Prevailing time charter rates fluctuate on a seasonal and on a year-to-year basis and, as a result, when employment is being sought for a vessel with an expiring or terminated time charter, the prevailing time charter rates achievable in the time charter market may be substantially higher or lower than the expiring or terminated time charter rate. Fluctuation in time charter rates is influenced by changes in spot charter rates, which are in turn influenced by a number of factors, including vessel supply and demand. The main factors that could increase total vessel operating expenses are crew salaries, insurance premiums, spare parts, repairs that are not covered under insurance policies and lubricant prices.


Voyage Expenses, net


Voyage expenses, net primarily consist of port, canal and bunker expenses that are unique to a particular charter under time charter arrangements are paid by the charterers or by the Company under voyage charter arrangements. Furthermore, voyage expenses, net include brokerage commission on revenue paid by the Company.

As part voyage expenses, net the Company may also record a gain or loss from bunkers which results mainly from the difference in the value of bunkers paid by the Company when the vessel is redelivered to the Company from the charterer under the vessel’s previous time charter agreement and the value of bunkers sold by the Company when the vessel is delivered to a new charterer.

Vessel Operating Expenses


Vessel operating expenses primarily consist of crew wages and related costs, the cost of insurance, expenses relating to repairs and maintenance, the cost of spares and consumable stores, tonnage taxes and other miscellaneous expenses necessary for the operation of the vessel and borne by the owner. All vessel operating expenses are expensed as incurred.

General and Administrative Expenses


The primary components of general and administrative expenses consist of the services of our senior executive officers, and the expenses associated with being a public company. Such public company expenses include the costs of preparing public reporting documents, legal and accounting costs and costs related to compliance with the rules, regulations and requirements of the SEC, the rules of NASDAQ, board of directors’ compensation and investor relations.

Depreciation

We depreciate the cost of our vessels after deducting the estimated residual value, on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life of each vessel, which is estimated to be 25 years from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard. We estimate the residual values of our vessels to be $380 per lightweight ton.


Interest and Finance Costs


We have historically incurred interest expense and financing costs in connection with the debt incurred to partially finance the acquisition of our existing fleet. The interest rate was calculated until August 10, 2022 based on the three-month LIBORrate and applicable margin and on SOFR rate and applicable margin thereafter.

Gain/(Loss) on derivative financial instruments

The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements to manage its exposure to fluctuations of interest rate risk associated with its borrowings. Interest Rate Swaps are measured at fair value. The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs. The valuation technique used for the Interest Rate Swaps is the discounted cash flow. The Company has not designated these interest rate swaps for hedge accounting.

The fair value of the Interest Rate Swaps is classified under “Fair value of derivative financial instruments” either under assets or liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position. In the event that the respective asset or liability is expected to be materialized within the next twelve months, it is classified as current asset or liability. Otherwise, the respective asset or liability is classified as non-current asset or liability.

The change in fair value deriving from the valuation of the Interest Rate Swap at the end of each reporting period is classified under “Gain/ (Loss) on derivative financial instruments, net” in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Realized gains or losses resulting from interest rate swaps are recognized in profit or loss under “Gain / (Loss) on derivative financial instruments, net” in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

(2) Earnings / (losses) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or “EBITDA”, represents the sum of net income/(loss), interest and finance costs, interest income, depreciation and amortization and, if any, income taxes during a period. Adjusted EBITDA represents net earnings / (losses) before interest and finance costs net, gains or losses on derivative financial instruments, foreign exchange gains or losses, income taxes, depreciation, depreciation of drydocking costs, impairment and. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net comprehensive income/(loss) or cash generated from operations, as determined by IFRS, and our calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measure under IFRS.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is included herein because it is a basis upon which we assess our financial performance and because we believe that it presents useful information to investors regarding a company’s ability to service and/or incur indebtedness and it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under IFRS. Some of these limitations are:

» EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

» EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;

» EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in or cash requirements for our working capital needs; and

» other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business.

Recent Developments

Contract for new building vessels


On April 29, 2022, the Company has signed a contract for the construction and purchase of one fuel efficient bulk carrier of about 64,000 dwt. The vessel will be built at Nihon Shipyard Co. in Japan and is scheduled to be delivered during the first half of 2024. The total consideration for the construction of the vessel is approximately $37.5 million, which the Company intends to finance with a combination of debt and equity. In May 2022 the Company paid the 1^st^ instalment of $7.4 million.

On May 13, 2022, the Company has signed two contracts for the construction and purchase of two fuel efficient bulk carrier of about 64,000 dwt each. The sister vessels will be built at Nantong COSCO KHI Ship Engineering Co. in China with the first one scheduled to be delivered during the third quarter of 2024 and the second one scheduled during the fourth quarter of 2024. The total consideration for the construction of both vessels is approximately $70.3 million, which the Company intends to finance with a combination of debt and equity. In May 2022 the Company paid the 1^st^ instalment of $13.8 million and in November 2022 paid the 2^nd^ instalment of $6.9 million for both vessels under construction.

Debt financing


In August 2022, the Company reached an agreement with First Citizens Bank & Trust Company (formerly known as CIT Bank N.A.) for a deed of accession, amendment and restatement of the “CIT loan facility” (as referred at 2021 Annual Report) by the accession of an additional borrower in order to increase the loan facility from a total of $34.25 million to $52.25 million, by a top up loan amount of $18 million for the purpose of financing vessel Orion Globe and for general corporate and working capital purposes of all the borrowers and Globus. The CIT loan facility (including the new top up loan amount) is now further secured by a first preferred mortgage over the vessel Orion Globe. Furthermore, the benchmark rate was amended from LIBOR to SOFR and the applicable margin from 3.75% to 3.35% for the whole CIT loan facility. The Company also entered into a new swap agreement in order for the additional borrower to enter into hedging transactions (separately from those entered by the other borrowers) with First Citizens Bank & Trust Company (formerly known as CIT Bank N.A.).

Results of Operations


Impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s Business

The spread of the COVID-19 virus, which has been declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in 2020 has caused substantial disruptions in the global economy and the shipping industry, as well as significant volatility in the financial markets, the severity and duration of which remains uncertain.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to unfold and may continue to have a negative effect on the Company’s business, financial performance and the results of its operations. As a result, many of the Company’s estimates and assumptions required increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, the Company’s estimates may change in future periods. Besides reducing demand for cargo, coronavirus may functionally limit the amount of cargo that the Company and its competitors are able to move because countries worldwide have imposed quarantine checks on arriving vessels, which have caused delays in loading and delivery of cargoes.

The Company has evaluated the impact of current economic situation on the recoverability of the carrying amount of its vessels. For the first nine months of 2022 and 2021 the Company evaluated the carrying amount of its vessels and concluded that no impairment of its vessels should be recorded, or previously recognized impairment should be reversed.

Conflicts

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine, which commenced in February 2022, has disrupted supply chains and caused instability and significant volatility in the global economy. Much uncertainty remains regarding the global impact of the conflict in Ukraine, and it is possible that such instability, uncertainty and resulting volatility could significantly increase the costs of the Company and adversely affect its business, including the ability to secure charters and financing on attractive terms, and as a result, adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operation and cash flows. Currently there is no direct effect on the Company’s operations.



Nine-month periodended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021

Net comprehensive income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 amounted to $27.4 million or $1.33 basic and diluted income per share based on 20,582,301 weighted average number of shares, compared to net comprehensive income of $4.8 million for the same period last year or $0.37 basic and diluted income per share based on 12,865,496 weighted average number of common shares.

The following table corresponds to the breakdown of the factors that led to the increase in net comprehensive income during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021 (expressed in $000’s):

9-month period of2022 vs 9-month period of 2021

Net income and net comprehensive income for the 9-month period of 2021 4,787
Increase in Voyage revenues 28,504
Increase in management & consulting fee income 195
Increase in Voyage expenses, net (2,041 )
Increase in Vessels operating expenses (3,630 )
Increase in Depreciation (1,591 )
Increase in Depreciation of dry-docking costs (1,420 )
Increase in Total administrative expenses (951 )
Decrease in Other income, net (500 )
Increase in Interest income 8
Decrease in Interest expense and finance costs 1,499
Increase in Gain on derivative financial instruments 2,457
Increase in Foreign exchange gains 116
Net income and net comprehensive income for the 9-month period of 2022 27,433

Voyage revenues

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, our Voyage revenues reached $53.2 million and $24.7 million, respectively. The 115% increase in Voyage revenues was mainly attributed to the increase in the average time charter rates achieved by our vessels during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021. Daily Time Charter Equivalent rate (TCE) for the nine-month period of 2022 was $20,840 per vessel per day against $13,325 per vessel per day during the same period in 2021, corresponding to an increase of 56%, which is attributed to the better conditions throughout the bulk market for the first nine months of 2022. The Company operated a fleet of nine vessels during the first nine months of 2022 compared to an average of 6.7 vessels for the same period in 2021.

Management &consulting fee income

On July 15, 2021, the Company entered into a consultancy agreement with Eolos Shipmanagement S.A., a related party, for the purpose of providing consultancy services to Eolos Shipmanagement S.A. For these services the Company receives a daily fee of $1 thousand. The total income from these fees is classified in the income statement component of the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income under management & consulting fee income.

Voyage expenses,net

Voyage expenses, net reached $2.9 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, compared to $0.8 million during the same period last year. Voyage expenses, net, include commissions on revenues, port and other voyage expenses and bunker expenses. Bunker expenses mainly refer to the cost of bunkers consumed during periods, gain or (loss) on sale of bunkers and bunker expenses that our vessels are travelling seeking employment. Voyage expenses, net for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, are analyzed as follows:

In $000’s 2022 2021
Commissions 811 366
Bunkers expenses 1,664 44
Other voyage expenses 394 418
Total 2,869 828


Vessel operatingexpenses

Vessel operating expenses, which include crew costs, provisions, deck and engine stores, lubricating oils, insurance, maintenance, and repairs, reached $13.3 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, compared to $9.6 million during the same period last year. This is mainly attributed to the fact that the fleet of the Company has increased to nine vessels during the first nine months of 2022 compared to an average of 6.7 vessels for the same period in 2021. The breakdown of our operating expenses for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was as follows:

2022 2021
Crew expenses 51 % 56 %
Repairs and spares 21 % 18 %
Insurance 8 % 8 %
Stores 12 % 11 %
Lubricants 5 % 4 %
Other 3 % 3 %

Average daily operating expenses during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were $5,397 per vessel per day and $5,278 per vessel per day respectively, corresponding to an increase of 2%.

Depreciation

Depreciation charge during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, reached $4.3 million compared to $2.7 million during the same period in 2021. This is mainly attributed to the increase of the fleet from an average of 6.7 vessels during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021 to 9 vessels for the same period in 2022. Nonetheless, this increase has been partly counterbalanced from the increase of scrap rate from $300/ton to $380/ton during the fourth quarter of 2021, due to the increased scrap rates worldwide.

Total administrative expenses

Total administrative expenses, including administrative expenses to related parties and share based payments, increased to $3.2 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, compared to $2.3 million in the same period of 2021. The increase is partly attributed to new personnel hirings, as a result of the fleet expansion from an average of 6.7 vessels, during the first nine months of 2021, to 9 vessels for the same period in 2022.

Interest expense and finance costs

Interest expense and finance costs reached $1.4 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, compared to $2.9 million in the same period of 2021. Interest expense and finance costs for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, are analyzed as follows:

In $000’s 2022 2021
Interest payable on long-term borrowings 1,241 1,637
Bank charges 44 50
Operating lease liability interest 45 34
Gain from termination of previous operating lease (42 ) -
Amortization of debt discount 114 509
Other finance expenses 26 608
Accrued loss on Interest rate Swap - 89
Total 1,428 2,927

As at September 30, 2022, and 2021 we and our vessel-owning subsidiaries had outstanding borrowings under our Loan agreements of an aggregate of $46 million and $33 million, respectively, gross of unamortized debt discount. The decrease in interest payable is mainly attributed to the decrease of the weighted interest rate from 6.26% during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021 to 4.93% for the same period in 2022, which is mainly attributed to the refinance of the EnTrust loan facility with CIT loan facility in May 2021. The EnTrust loan facility had a margin of 8.50% (plus Libor) whereas the CIT loan facility has a margin of 3.35% (plus SOFR), as amended. Other finance expenses for the second quarter of 2021 include approximately $0.6 million that were the loan prepayment fee and expenses relating to the prepayment of EnTrust Loan Facility.


Gain on derivative financial instruments

Following the new loan facility with First Citizens Bank & Trust Company (formerly known as CIT Bank N.A.), the Company entered into an Interest Rate Swap agreement on May 10, 2021. As at September 30, 2022, the Company recognized a gain of approximately $2 million, net of interest for the period, according to the Interest Rate Swap valuation and is included in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Following the deed of accession, amendment and restatement of the CIT loan facility by the accession of an additional borrower in order to increase the loan facility from a total of $34.25 million to $52.25 million in August 2022, the Company also entered into a new swap agreement in order for the additional borrower to enter into hedging transactions (separately from those entered by the other borrowers) with First Citizens Bank & Trust Company (formerly known as CIT Bank N.A.). As at September 30, 2022, the Company recognized a gain of approximately $0.5 million, net of interest for the period, according to the Interest Rate Swap valuation and is included in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income.


Liquidity and capital resources

As at September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, our cash and bank balances and bank deposits (including restricted cash) were $69 and $50.4 million, respectively.

As at September 30, 2022, the Company reported a working capital surplus of $60.6 million and was in compliance with the covenants included in the loan agreement with First Citizens Bank & Trust Company (formerly known as CIT Bank N.A.).

The above conditions indicate that the Company will continue to operate as a going concern.

Net cash generated from operating activitiesfor the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 was $27.9 million compared to $7.9 million during the respective period in 2021. The increase in our cash generated from operating activities was mainly attributed to the increase in our Voyage revenues from $24.7 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021 to $53.2 million during the nine-month period under consideration.

Net cash used in investing activities for thenine-month period ended September 30, 2022 was $22.1 million compared to $43.4 million during the respective period in 2021. The amount used in investing activities for first nine months of 2022 is mainly attributed to the cash advances paid for the three new buildings during the second quarter of 2022 as well as the installation of ballast water treatment to the vessels. Respectively, for the first nine months of 2021 was mainly attributed to the purchase of m/v “Diamond Globe”, amounting to $27 million and the acquisition of m/v “Power Globe”, amounting to $16.2 million.

Net cash generated from financing activitiesduring the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 and during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021 were as follows:

Nine months ended September 30,

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as at and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.

GLOBUS MARITIME LIMITED

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED INTERIMCONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SEPTEMBER 30, 2022

(Amounts presented in thousands of U.S. Dollars - except for share,per share and warrants data, unless otherwise stated)

1. Basis of presentation and general information (continued)

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements presented in this report do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2021 and for the year then ended included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “2021 Annual Report”).

Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized words and expressions used herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the 2021 Annual Report.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as at September 30, 2022 and for the nine months then ended, were approved for issuance by the Board of Directors on November 25, 2022.


GoingConcern basis of accounting:

As at December 31, 2021, the Company reported a working capital surplus of $37.8 million and was in compliance with its debt covenants.

As at September 30, 2022, the Company reported a working capital surplus of $60.6 million and was in compliance with the applicable covenants included in the loan agreement with First Citizens Bank & Trust Company (formerly known as CIT Bank N.A.).

The above conditions indicate that the Company is expected to be able to operate as a going concern and these consolidated financial statements were prepared under this assumption.

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine, which commenced in February 2022, has disrupted supply chains and caused instability and significant volatility in the global economy. Much uncertainty remains regarding the global impact of the conflict in Ukraine, and it is possible that such instability, uncertainty and resulting volatility could significantly increase the costs of the Company and adversely affect its business, including the ability to secure charters and financing on attractive terms, and as a result, adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operation and cash flows. Currently there is no effect on the Company’s operations.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Company’sBusiness

The spread of the COVID-19 virus, which has been declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in 2020 has caused substantial disruptions in the global economy and the shipping industry, as well as significant volatility in the financial markets, the severity and duration of which remains uncertain.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to unfold and may continue to have a negative effect on the Company’s business, financial performance and the results of its operations. As a result, many of the Company’s estimates and assumptions required increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, the Company’s estimates may change in future periods. Besides reducing demand for cargo, coronavirus may functionally limit the amount of cargo that the Company and its competitors are able to move because countries worldwide have imposed quarantine checks on arriving vessels, which have caused delays in loading and delivery of cargoes.

The Company has evaluated the impact of the current economic situation on the recoverability of the carrying amount of its vessels. As at September 30, 2022, no indicators of impairment or reversal of previously recognized impairment have been identified and the Company concluded that no impairment of its vessels should be recorded, or that previously recognized impairment should be reversed.

2. Significant Accounting Policies and recent accounting pronouncements

A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies and recent accounting pronouncements is included in Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the 2021 Annual Report. There have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies and recent accounting pronouncements in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 other than the following IFRS amendments which have been adopted by the Company as of 1 January 2022:

•       IFRS3 Business Combinations; IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment; IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets as wellas Annual Improvements 2018-2020 (Amendments)

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022 with earlier application permitted. The IASB has issued narrow-scope amendments to the IFRS Standards as follows:

Ø IFRS 3 Business Combinations (Amendments) update a reference in IFRS 3 to the Conceptual Framework<br>for Financial Reporting without changing the accounting requirements for business combinations.
Ø IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment (Amendments) prohibit a company from deducting from the cost<br>of property, plant and equipment amounts received from selling items produced while the company is preparing the asset for its intended<br>use. Instead, a company recognizes such sales proceeds and related cost in profit or loss.
--- ---
Ø IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets (Amendments) specify which costs<br>a company includes in determining the cost of fulfilling a contract for the purpose of assessing whether a contract is onerous.
--- ---
Ø Annual Improvements 2018-2020 make minor amendments to IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International<br>Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, IAS 41 Agriculture and the Illustrative Examples accompanying IFRS 16 Leases
--- ---

The amendments had no impact on the financial statements of the Company.

· IFRS 16 Leases-Cοvid 19 Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June 2021 (Amendment)

The Amendment applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2021, with earlier application permitted, including in financial statements not yet authorized for issue at the date the amendment is issued. In March 2021, the Board amended the conditions of the practical expedient in IFRS 16 that provides relief to lessees from applying the IFRS 16 guidance on lease modifications to rent concessions arising as a direct consequence of the covid-19 pandemic. Following the amendment, the practical expedient now applies to rent concessions for which any reduction in lease payments affects only payments originally due on or before 30 June 2022, provided the other conditions for applying the practical expedient are met.

The amendments had no impact on the financial statements of the Company.

Standards issued but not yet effectiveand not early adopted

· 16 Leases: Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (amendments)

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, with earlier application permitted. The amendments are intended to improve the requirements that a seller-lessee uses in measuring the lease liability arising in a sale and leaseback transaction in IFRS 16, while it does not change the accounting for leases unrelated to sale and leaseback transactions. In particular, the seller-lessee determines ‘lease payments’ or ‘revised lease payments’ in such a way that the seller-lessee would not recognise any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use it retains. Applying these requirements does not prevent the seller-lessee from recognising, in profit or loss, any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of a lease. A seller-lessee applies the amendment retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 to sale and leaseback transactions entered into after the date of initial application, being the beginning of the annual reporting period in which an entity first applied IFRS 16.

3. Cash and cash equivalents and Restricted cash

For the purpose of the interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position, cash and cash equivalents comprise the following:

September 30,<br> 2022 December 31,<br> 2021
Cash on hand 9 25
Cash at banks 62,686 45,188

On February 14, 2022 the Company changed the compensation of the non-executive directors. In the aggregate, the annual service fee for each of the directors (based on their current roles and committee seats) will be $80 based on the annual service fees, committee fees, and other similar fees.

In June 2022, the Company entered into a new rental agreement with F.G. Europe (an affiliate of Globus’s chairman) for the same office space, at the same rate of Euro 26,000 (absolute amount) and with the same lease period ending of August 4, 2024(see also Note 11).

7 Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing the net income for the year attributable to Globus shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares issued, paid and outstanding.

Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to common equity holders of the parent by the weighted average shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of common shares that would be issued on the conversion of all the dilutive potential common shares into common shares. The incremental shares (the difference between the number of shares assumed issued and the number of shares assumed purchased) are included in the denominator of the diluted earnings per share computation unless such inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

As for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the securities that could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future are any incremental shares of unexercised warrants (Note 6). As the warrants were out-of-the money during the periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, these were not included in the computation of diluted EPS, because to do so would have anti-dilutive effect.

The following reflects the net income per common share:

Three months ended <br><br>September 30, Nine months ended <br><br>September 30,
2022 2021 2022 2021
Net Income attributable to common equity holders $ 4,335 $ 5,576 $ 27,433 $ 4,787

8 Long-Term Debt, net (continued)
(a) In May 2021, Globus through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Devocean Maritime Ltd.(the “Borrower<br>A”), Domina Maritime Ltd. (the “Borrower B”), Dulac Maritime S.A. (the “Borrower C”), Artful Shipholding<br>S.A. (the “Borrower D”), Longevity Maritime Limited (the “Borrower E”) and Serena Maritime Limited (the “Borrower<br>F”), vessel owning companies of m/v River Globe, m/v Sky Globe, m/v Star Globe, m/v Moon Globe, m/v Sun Globe and m/v Galaxy Globe,<br>respectively, entered a new term loan facility for up to $34,250 with First Citizens Bank & Trust Company (formerly known as CIT Bank<br>N.A.) for the purpose of refinancing the existing indebtedness secured on the ships. The loan facility is in the names of Devocean Maritime<br>Ltd., Domina Maritime Ltd, Dulac Maritime S.A., Artful Shipholding S.A., Longevity Maritime Limited and Serena Maritime Limited as the<br>borrowers and is guaranteed by Globus. This loan facility is referred to as the “CIT loan facility”. The loan facility bore<br>interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 3.75% for interest periods of three months. Following the agreement reached in August 2022 the benchmark<br>rate was amended from LIBOR to SOFR and the applicable margin was decreased from 3.75% to 3.35%. This amendment to the loan agreement<br>falls within the scope of Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2, Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 (“Amendments”),<br>which have been published by IASB in August 2020 and adopted by the Company as of January 1, 2021. In particular, the Company applied<br>the practical expedient available under the Amendments and adjusted the effective interest rate when accounting for changes in the basis<br>for determining the contractual cash flows under CIT loan facility. No adjustment to the carrying amount of the loan was necessary. The<br>Company has also amended its interest rate swap agreement with First Citizens Bank & Trust Company (formerly known as CIT Bank N.A.)<br>and replaced the respective benchmark rate from LIBOR to SOFR in order to depict the change of base rate of the CIT loan facility. As<br>a result of this amendment, and the revaluation of the interest rate swap, the Company recognised a realized gain of $163, which is included<br>under Gain/(Loss) on derivative financial instruments, net in the income statement component of the condensed consolidated statement of<br>comprehensive income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022.
--- ---

In August 2022, the Company reached an agreement with First Citizens Bank & Trust Company (formerly known as CIT Bank N.A.) for a deed of accession, amendment and restatement of the CIT loan facility by the accession of an additional borrower in order to increase the loan facility from a total of $34.25 million to $52.25 million, by a top up loan amount of $18 million for the purpose of financing vessel Orion Globe and for general corporate and working capital purposes of all the borrowers and Globus. The CIT loan facility (including the new top up loan amount) is now further secured by a first preferred mortgage over the vessel Orion Globe. Furthermore, the loan facility bears interest at SOFR plus a margin 3.35% for the whole CIT loan facility. The Company also entered into a new swap agreement in order for the additional borrower to enter into hedging transactions (separately from those entered by the other borrowers) with First Citizens Bank & Trust Company (formerly known as CIT Bank N.A.). On August 10, 2022, the Company drew down $18 million, paid approximately $259 of borrowing costs incurred, which were deferred over the duration of the loan facility.

On May 10, 2021, the Company drew down $34,250, paid $0.5 million of borrowing costs incurred for the CIT loan facility, which were deferred over the duration of the loan facility, and fully prepaid the balance of the EnTrust loan facility. The CIT loan facility consists of six tranches, one for each vessel and is further defined in the 2021 Annual Report.

Among the other financial covenants in CIT loan facility it is included the following covenant:

At all times the Parent Guarantor (i.e., Globus) shall maintain, on a consolidated basis, cash in an amount of not less than $150 for each group vessel (other than the Borrowers), to be legally and beneficially owned by the owner of that vessel, such cash to be free of any restriction or withdrawal or transfer and unencumbered by any security.

The Company was in compliance with the covenants of CIT loan facility as at September 30, 2022.

(b) In June 2019, Globus through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Devocean Maritime Ltd.(the “Borrower<br>A”), Domina Maritime Ltd. (the “Borrower B”), Dulac Maritime S.A. (the “Borrower C”), Artful Shipholding<br>S.A. (the “Borrower D”) and Longevity Maritime Limited (the “Borrower E”), vessel owning companies of m/v River<br>Globe, m/v Sky Globe, m/v Star Globe, m/v Moon Globe and m/v Sun Globe, respectively, entered a new term loan facility for up to $37,000<br>with EnTrust Global’s Blue Ocean Fund for the purpose of refinancing the existing indebtedness secured on the ships and for general<br>corporate purposes. The loan facility was in the names of Devocean Maritime Ltd., Domina Maritime Ltd, Dulac Maritime S.A., Artful Shipholding<br>S.A. and Longevity Maritime Limited as the borrowers and was guaranteed by Globus. The loan facility bore interest at LIBOR plus a margin<br>of 8.50% (or 10.5% default interest) for interest periods of three months. This loan facility is referred to as the EnTrust loan facility.

In March 2021, the Company prepaid $6.0 million of the Entrust loan facility, which represented all amounts that would otherwise come due during calendar year 2021 and on May 10, 2021, the Company fully prepaid the balance of the EnTrust Loan facility.

For the period from January 1 to September 30, 2022 there were no share based payments, as in 2022 the Company changed the compensation of the non-executive directors (Note 4).

10 Contingencies

Various claims, suits and complaints, including those involving government regulations, arise in the ordinary course of the shipping business. In addition, losses may arise from disputes with charterers, environmental claims, agents, and insurers and from claims with suppliers relating to the operations of the Company’s vessels. Currently, management is not aware of any such claims or contingent liabilities, which are material for disclosure.

11 Commitments

Voyage revenue


The Company enters into time charter arrangements on its vessels. These non-cancellable arrangements had remaining terms between nil days to approximately two months as at September 30, 2022, assuming redelivery at the earliest possible date. As at December 31, 2021, the non-cancellable arrangements had remaining terms between nil days to two and a half months, assuming redelivery at the earliest possible date. Future net minimum Voyage revenues receivable under non-cancellable operating leases as at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, were as follows (vessel off-hires and dry-docking days that could occur but are not currently known are not taken into consideration; in addition early delivery of the vessels by the charterers is not accounted for):


September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021
Within one year 3,276 6,082
Total 3,276 6,082

These amounts include consideration for other elements of the arrangement apart from the right to use the vessel such as maintenance and crewing and its related costs.

For time charters that qualify as leases, the Company is required to disclose lease and non-lease components of Voyage revenue. The revenue earned under time charters is not negotiated in its two separate components, but as a whole. For purposes of determining the standalone selling price of the vessel lease and technical management service components of the Company’s time charters, the Company concluded that the residual approach would be the most appropriate method to use given that vessel lease rates are highly variable depending on shipping market conditions, the duration of such charters and the age of the vessel.

(Amounts presented in thousands of U.S. Dollars - except for share,per share and warrants data, unless otherwise stated)

11 Commitments (continued)

The Company believes that the standalone transaction price attributable to the technical management service component, including crewing services, is more readily determinable than the price of the lease component and, accordingly, the price of the service component is estimated using data provided by its technical department, which consist of the crew expenses, maintenance and consumable costs and was approximately $13,612 and $9,829 for the periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The lease component that is disclosed then is calculated as the difference between voyage revenue and the non-lease component revenue and was $39,565 and $14,844 for the periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Office leasecontract

As further discussed in Note 4 the Company has recognised a right of use asset and a corresponding liability with respect to the rental agreement of office space for its operations within a building leased by FG Europe (an affiliate of Globus’s chairman).


The depreciation charge for right-of-use assets for the period ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, was approximately $249 and $120 respectively, and the interest expense on lease liability for the period ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, was approximately $45 and $34, respectively, and recognised in the income statement component of the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income under depreciation and interest expense and finance costs, respectively.

At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the current lease liabilities amounted to $316 and $349, respectively, and the non-current lease liabilities amounted to $263 and $556, respectively, and are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of financial position.

Commitments undershipbuilding contracts


On April 29, 2022, the Company assumed a commitment amounting to $37.5 million, which is the price of the new building construction that will be built at Nihon Shipyard Co. in Japan and is scheduled to be delivered during the first half of 2024, following the contract entered on April 29, 2022, (see also Note 5). In May 2022 the Company paid the 1^st^ instalment of $7.4 million.

14 Interest rate risk and liquidity risk

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates. As at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no long-term borrowings at a fixed interest rate.

Interest rate risk table

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, of the Company’s Net Income.

14 Interest rate risk and liquidity risk (continued)

Liquidity risk


The Company mitigates liquidity risk by managing cash generated by its operations, applying cash collection targets appropriately. The vessels are normally chartered under time-charter, as per the industry practice, the charterer pays for the lease 15 days in advance, supporting the management of cash generation. Vessel acquisitions are carefully controlled, with authorisation limits operating up to board level.. In this way, the Company maintains a good credit rating to facilitate fund raising. In its funding strategy, the Company’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank loans. Excess cash used in managing liquidity is only invested in financial instruments exposed to insignificant risk of changes in market value or are being placed on interest bearing deposits with maturities fixed usually for no more than 3 months. The Company monitors its risk relating to the shortage of funds by considering the maturity of its financial liabilities and its projected cash flows from operations.


The table below summarises the maturity profile of the Company’s financial liabilities (including interest) at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 based on contractual undiscounted cash flows.
