November 26, 2024 - Glyfada, Greece – United Maritime Corporation (“United” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: USEA), announced today its financial results for the third quarter and
nine months ended September 30, 2024. The Company also declared a quarterly dividend of $0.075 per common share for the third quarter of 2024.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Company generated Net Revenues of $11.6 million compared to $11.7 million in the third quarter of 2023. Net Loss and Adjusted Net Loss for the quarter were $0.9 million
and $0.3 million, respectively, compared to Net Income of $8.9 million and Adjusted Net Income of $9.2 million in the third quarter of 2023. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $5.1 million, compared to $13.8 million for the same period of 2023.
The Time Charter Equivalent rate (“TCE rate”)2 of the fleet for the third quarter of 2024 was $16,365 per day.
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, the Company generated Net Revenues of $34.6 million, compared to $24.5 million in the same period of 2023. Net Loss and Adjusted Net Loss for the period were $1.6
million and $0.5 million, respectively, compared to Net Income of $0.9 million and Adjusted Net Income of $3.4 million in the respective period of 2023. Adjusted EBITDA for the first nine months of 2024 was $15.1 million, compared to $14.4 million
for the same period of 2023. The TCE rate of the fleet for the first nine months of 2024 was $16,246 per day.
Cash and cash-equivalents and restricted cash as of September 30, 2024, stood at $11.4 million. Shareholders’ equity at the end of the third quarter was $62.5 million, while long-term debt, finance lease liabilities
and other financial liabilities, net of deferred finance costs stood at $101.1 million as of September 30, 2024. The book value of our fleet as of September 30, 2024, stood at $155.3 million, including one chartered-in Kamsarmax vessel.
Stamatis Tsantanis, the Company’s Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, stated:
"In the third quarter of 2024, United continued to deliver value to shareholders, announcing our eighth consecutive quarterly dividend, set at $0.075 per share. This distribution represents an annualized yield of 15%
per share.3 Over the past two years, we have returned $1.60 per share in dividends, prioritizing shareholder returns even amidst market challenges.
Our strategy to modernize and optimize our fleet continues to yield significant benefits. The delivery of the 2016-built M/V Nisea, coupled with the profitable sale of the M/V Oasea, which we sold for $1.4 million
book profit in July, underscores our disciplined approach to fleet renewal. These transactions not only reduce the average age of our vessels but also secure high-quality charters at rates above market averages, demonstrating the strength of our
commercial strategy.
While our third quarter financial results reflect a period of transition, they also highlight the robustness of our operational platform. Our adjusted EBITDA of $5.1 million and near-perfect fleet utilization of
99.9% are testaments to our operational efficiency and market adaptability. Moreover, our prudent capital management ensures that we are well-positioned to capture growth opportunities in a dry bulk market that continues to benefit from favorable
supply-demand dynamics.
In the fourth quarter, based on current FFA levels, we expect to deliver a daily TCE of $15,140, also taking into account that three Panamax and two Capesize vessels are operating under fixed daily rates, leaving one
Capesize and two Panamax exposed to the spot market developments. Lastly, as regards our commercial developments, the M/V Cretansea was fixed on a one-year time charter at an index-linked rate with a major commodity trading company.
2 TCE Rate is a non-GAAP measure. Please see the reconciliation below of TCE Rate to net revenues from vessels, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure.
3 Based on the closing price on November 22, 2024.
2
Concerning the dry bulk market, we note that conditions remain favorable, with positive developments being led mainly by the Capesize sector where projected ton-mile demand exceeds projected fleet supply growth
according to all forecasts. Over the next years the positive outlook for the dry bulk market is a function of low expected fleet growth owing to limited newbuilding ordering in the face of strict environmental regulations that are increasing the
need for fleet renewal.
As we look ahead, our focus remains on driving sustainable growth through strategic fleet investments and diversification initiatives like our recently announced participation in an offshore project concerning the
construction of an Energy Construction Vessel. This forward-looking approach ensures United is not only well-equipped to capitalize on emerging market trends but also positioned to deliver long-term value to our shareholders under changing market
conditions."

“T/C” refers to a time charter agreement. Under these index-linked T/Cs, the Company has the option to convert the index-linked rate to fixed for a period of minimum two months, based on the prevailing FFA Rates for the selected period,
and has done so for certain vessels as part of its freight hedging strategy, as described below under “Fourth Quarter 2024 TCE Rate Guidance”.
|
| (3) |
The vessel is technically and commercially operated by the Company on the basis of an 18-month bareboat charter-in contract with the owners of the vessel, including a purchase option at the end of the bareboat charter in favour of the
Company.

Ownership days are the total number of calendar days in a period during which the vessels in a fleet have been owned or chartered. Ownership days are an indicator of the size of the Company’s fleet over a
period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of expenses that the Company recorded during a period.
|
|
(2)
|
Operating days are the number of available days in a period less the aggregate number of days that the vessels are off-hire due to unforeseen circumstances. Operating days include the days that our vessels
are on ballast voyages without having finalized agreements for their next employment.
|
| (3) |
Fleet utilization is the percentage of time that the vessels are generating revenue and is determined by dividing operating days by ownership days for the relevant period.
|
|
(4)
|
TCE rate is defined as the Company’s net revenue less voyage expenses during a period divided by the number of the Company’s operating days during the period. Voyage expenses include port charges, bunker
(fuel oil and diesel oil) expenses, canal charges and other commissions. The Company includes the TCE rate, a non-GAAP measure, as it believes it provides additional meaningful information in conjunction with net revenues from vessels,
the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, and because it assists the Company’s management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of our vessels and because the Company believes that it provides useful information to
investors regarding our financial performance. The Company’s calculation of TCE rate may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. The following table reconciles the Company’s net revenues from vessels to the TCE rate.

Vessel operating expenses include crew costs, provisions, deck and engine stores, lubricants, insurance, maintenance and repairs. Daily Vessel Operating Expenses are calculated by dividing vessel operating
expenses, excluding pre-delivery costs of acquired vessels, by ownership days for the relevant time periods. The Company’s calculation of daily vessel operating expenses may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. The

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) represents the sum of net income, net interest and finance costs, depreciation and amortization and, if any, income taxes
during a period. EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation and loss / (gain) on extinguishment of debt, which the Company believes are not indicative of
the ongoing performance of its core operations.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are presented as we believe that these measures are useful to investors as a widely used means of evaluating operating profitability. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as presented
here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

To derive Adjusted Net (loss) / income and Adjusted Net (loss) / income Per Share, both non-GAAP measures, from Net (loss) / income, we exclude certain non-cash items, as provided in the table above.
We believe that Adjusted Net (loss) / income and Adjusted Net (loss) / income Per Share assist our management and investors by increasing the comparability of our performance from period to period since each such measure eliminates the effects of
such non-cash items as stock-based compensation, loss / (gain) on extinguishment of debt and other items which may vary from year to year, for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. In addition, we believe that the presentation of the
respective measures provides investors with supplemental data relating to our results of operations, and therefore, with a more complete understanding of factors affecting our business than with GAAP measures alone. Our method of computing Adjusted
Net (loss) / income and Adjusted Net (loss) / income Per Share may not necessarily be comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation.
As of the date hereof, approximately 87% of the Company fleet’s expected operating days in the fourth quarter of 2024 have been fixed at an estimated TCE rate of
approximately $15,700. Assuming that for the remaining operating days of our index-linked T/Cs, the respective vessels’ TCE rate will be equal to an average Forward Freight Agreement (“FFA”) rate of $21,254 for Capesize and $10,107 for Kamsarmax
per day (based on the FFA curve of November 22, 2024), our estimated TCE for the fourth quarter of 2024 is approximately $15,1404. Our TCE rate guidance for the fourth quarter of 2024 includes the already performed conversions of
index-linked charters to fixed for the period.

share repurchase program commenced in October 2022. All the abovementioned shares were cancelled and removed from our share capital as of the date of this release. As of November 22, 2024, the Company had 8,844,267 common shares issued and

Vessel transactions and commercial updates
Delivery of M/V Nisea and time-charter agreement
In September 2024, the Company took delivery of the 82,235 dwt M/V Nisea built in 2016 in Japan. The M/V Nisea is chartered-in under an 18-month bareboat charter agreement, with a downpayment of $7.5 million (already
paid), a daily charter rate of $8,000 over the period of the bareboat charter, and a purchase option of approximately $16.6 million at the end of the bareboat charter.
The M/V Nisea is chartered by Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (“MOL”) for a period of minimum 10 months to maximum 12 months, at a fixed rate of $16,500.
M/V Cretansea – New time-charter agreement
In October 2024, the M/V Cretansea commenced employment under a new T/C agreement at an index linked rate, with a major commodity trading company for a period of about 11 months to about 13 months. The T/C provides
the Company with the option to convert the variable charter hire to a fixed rate for a period of minimum two months priced at the prevailing FFA rate for the selected period.
4 This guidance is based on certain assumptions and there can be no assurance that these TCE rate estimates, or projected utilization will be realized. TCE estimates include certain floating (index) to fixed rate conversions concluded in previous periods. For vessels on index-linked T/Cs, the TCE rate realized will vary with the underlying index, and for the purposes of this guidance, the TCE rate assumed for the remaining operating days of the quarter for an index-linked T/C is equal to an average FFA rate of $21,254 for Capesize and $10,107 for Kamsarmax per day (based on the FFA curve of November 22, 2024). Spot estimates are provided using the load-to-discharge method of accounting. The rates quoted are for days currently contracted. Increased ballast days at the end of the quarter will reduce the additional revenues that can be booked based on the accounting cut-offs and therefore the resulting TCE rate will be reduced accordingly.

Sale of M/V Oasea
On July 19, 2024, the M/V Oasea was delivered to her new owners, an unaffiliated third party, for a gross sale price of $20.2 million. An accounting profit of $1.4 million was recognized in the third
quarter of 2024.
Financing updates
In August 2024, the Company successfully completed two previously-disclosed sale-and-leaseback and loan agreements, securing an aggregate amount of $34.5 million. These financings facilitated the
exercise of purchase options for M/V Synthesea and M/V Chrisea.
2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders
At the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on November 7, 2024, the Company’s shareholders approved the re-election of Mr. Stavros Gyftakis and Mr. Dimitrios Kostopoulos to serve until the 2027
Annual Meeting of Shareholders as Class B directors and the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young (Hellas) Certified Auditors Accountants S.A to serve as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31,
2024.
