Exhibit 99.1
Himalaya Shipping Ltd. (HSHP) – Delivery of Mount Blanc and commencement of charter
Hamilton, Bermuda, May 31, 2023
Himalaya Shipping is pleased to announce that it has successfully taken delivery of the fourth of the twelve 210,000 dwt Newcastlemax newbuildings the Company has on
order from New Times Shipyard.
The vessel ("Mount Blanc") will commence a minimum 24 month charter with an evergreen structure thereafter and will earn an index-linked rate, reflecting a significant
premium to a standard Capesize vessel. The time charters also include a profit sharing of any economic benefit derived from operating the vessel´s scrubber or running on LNG, as well as certain rights to convert the time charters to fixed rates
based on the prevailing forward freight agreement (FFA) curve from time to time.
"We are excited to take delivery of the fourth vessel, which is chartered on an index-linked time charter, earning a significant premium to a standard Capesize vessel. We
are thankful to the shipyard which again has delivered a high-quality vessel slightly ahead of schedule, despite the previous difficult lock-down situation in China. The first three vessels already delivered have successfully traded their first
cargoes, loading Australia, Chile and soon Brazil. All technical, operational and commercial parameters already delivered have been met, proving quality and performance and meeting expectations. With 1/3 of the vessels delivered and the listing at
the NYSE, the Company has developed from a business idea into a fully operational dry bulk company with the youngest fleet on the water today" says Herman Billung, contracted CEO of Himalaya Shipping.

Forward Looking Statements
This announcement includes forward looking statements. Forward looking statements are, typically, statements that do not reflect historical facts and may be identified
by words such as "anticipate", "believe", "continue", "estimate", "expect", "intends", "may", "should", "will" and similar expressions, and include statements relating to our statements with respect to the delivery of Mount Blanc and the terms of
its charter, statements with respect to the vessels already delivered and our business. The forward-looking statements in this announcement are based upon various assumptions regarding the Company’s present and future business, many of which are
based, in turn, upon further assumptions. Although Himalaya Shipping Ltd. believes that these assumptions are reasonable, they are, by their nature, uncertain and subject to significant known and unknown risks, contingencies and other factors which
are difficult or impossible to predict and which are beyond our control. Such risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other factors could cause actual events, including the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements, to differ materially
from the expectations expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements included herein.
