Seanergy issued the following statement:

We greatly appreciate our shareholders’ support for our Board. This outcome reflects confidence in our Board and Seanergy’s strategic direction and our commitment to value creation both now and into the future. It is clear that our shareholders recognize that our Board and governance are driving meaningful, sustained growth. Today’s vote also underscores that Seanergy shareholders have firmly rejected G. Economou’s self-serving attempt to seize control, standing decisively against his proposals.

In recent years, Seanergy’s Board and management team have transformed the Company into a leading public, growth-oriented Capesize pure-play. Our investments in the Capesize fleet have enabled us to operate efficiently, outperform the market, and generate strong free cash flow to support disciplined growth while increasing capital returns to shareholders. With this focused strategy, we believe Seanergy is well-positioned to continue delivering strong performance through the cycle and attractive shareholder returns.

We thank our shareholders for the trust they have placed in our Board, and we look forward to continue engaging with them and taking actions that are in the best interest of all Seanergy shareholders.
