Aristides Pittas, Chairman and CEO of Euroseas, commented: “We are pleased to report financial results for the second quarter of 2026 at par with the first quarter of the year, making these two of our most profitable consecutive quarters of the last fifteen years. Solid contracts at highly profitable rates, combined with low drydocking expenses, as in the previous quarter, were the main factors supporting our strong financial results.

“The containership charter market remained very strong during the second quarter, with daily rates continuing at high levels through July and into the beginning of August 2026, shrugging off geopolitical uncertainty and inflationary pressures. Charterer interest in securing vessels has remained high, including for older tonnage. Our charter coverage is over 95% for the remainder of 2026, 81% for 2027 and 47% for 2028, ensuring that our profitability will remain strong regardless of the levels at which expiring charters are renewed. Secondhand vessel prices across all segments have also remained very firm and have continued to inch upwards.

“The macroeconomic environment during the quarter was largely influenced by continuing uncertainty surrounding the war in Iran and its effects on the use of the Strait of Hormuz. Whether these effects will prove short-lived or will ultimately result in lower economic growth remains to be seen. At the same time, continuing attacks by Houthi rebels on shipping in the Red Sea have prevented major liner companies from resuming regular Suez Canal transits. This has increased the number of teu-miles required and, consequently, the number of vessels needed, supporting demand for tonnage and charter rates.

“The eventual reversal of these inefficiencies, together with the absorption of the increased fleet orderbook, presents challenges for our sector over the medium term. The vessel orderbook, however, although high for the overall containership fleet, is concentrated in the larger sizes. The segments in which we operate—feeder and intermediate containerships—not only have a significantly smaller orderbook as a percentage of the existing fleet but also have an older age profile. This is likely to result in very modest fleet growth, or potentially even fleet shrinkage, in these segments.

“On the investment front, we have expanded our newbuilding program to 12 vessels, focusing on the most commercial sizes within the feeder and intermediate containership segments. The vessels are scheduled for delivery from the third quarter of 2027 through the first quarter of 2029. Once all twelve vessels are delivered, we expect to have one of the youngest feeder and intermediate containership fleets in the industry. In addition, we continue to look for accretive investment opportunities in our sector, balancing project returns with residual value risks.

“Finally, I am also pleased to announce that our Board has decided to declare a dividend of $0.80 per share, representing an annualized yield of approximately 4.2% to 4.5% based on the recent range in which our share price has traded.”

Tasos Aslidis, Chief Financial Officer of Euroseas commented: “Our revenues for the second quarter of 2026 are slightly lower compared to the same period of 2025. This was the result of the lower average number of vessels owned and operated during the second quarter of 2026 compared to the same period of last year. On a per-vessel-per-day basis, our vessels earned a 3.0% higher average charter rate in the second quarter of 2026 as compared to the same period of 2025. Our net revenues decreased to $56.5 million in the second quarter of 2026 compared to $57.2 million during the same period of last year.

“Daily vessel operating expenses, including management fees but excluding drydocking costs, averaged $7,116 per vessel per day during the second quarter of 2026 as compared to $6,700 per vessel per day for the same quarter of last year. This was mainly the result of the falling value of the USD and the adjustment for inflation in the daily vessel management fee, effective from January 1, 2026, increasing it from 840 Euros to 875 Euros.

General and administrative expenses averaged $920 per vessel per day during the second quarter of 2026 as compared to $694 per vessel per day for the same quarter of last year, and $910 per vessel per day for the first half of 2026 as compared to $766 per vessel per day for the same period of 2025. The increase is due to increased professional fees and increased cost for our stock incentive plan within 2026 as compared to 2025.

“Adjusted EBITDA during the second quarter of 2026 was $40.1 million versus $39.3 million in the second quarter of last year. As of June 30, 2026, our outstanding debt (before deducting the unamortized loan fees) was $208.1 million versus restricted and unrestricted cash of $164.3 million. As of the same date, our scheduled bank debt repayments over the next 12 months amounted to about $18.1 million (before deducting the unamortized loan fees).”

Second Quarter 2026 Results:
For the second quarter of 2026, the Company reported total net revenues of $56.5 million representing a 1.2% decrease over total net revenues of $57.2 million during the second quarter of 2025. This was the result of the lower average number of vessels owned and operated in the second quarter of 2026 compared to the same period of 2025, partly offset by the increase in the time charter rates our vessels earned in the second quarter of 2026 compared to the same period of 2025. On average, 21.0 vessels were owned and operated during the second quarter of 2026 earning an average time charter equivalent rate of $30,306 per day compared to 22.0 vessels in the same period of 2025 earning on average $29,420 per day.

For the second quarter of 2026, voyage expenses, net amounted to $0.2 million, as compared to voyage expenses of $0.3 million for the same period of 2025. Voyage expenses for both periods related mainly to owners’ expenses incurred in various ports.

Vessel operating expenses were $11.6 million in the second quarter of 2026 as compared to $11.5 million for the second quarter of 2025. The increase is due to the increased cost of vessel supplies during the period, because of the war in the Middle East region, partly offset by the lower average number of vessels owned and operated in the second quarter of 2026, compared to the corresponding period of 2025.

In the second quarter of 2026 none of our vessels were drydocked. The total drydock cost for the quarter of $0.2 million relates to supplies performed for upcoming drydocks. In the second quarter of 2025 one of our vessels completed extensive repairs afloat. The total drydock cost for the quarter was $1.7 million and also includes costs in relation to the upcoming drydockings.

Vessel depreciation for the second quarter of 2026 decreased to $6.7 million compared to $7.3 million for the same period of 2025 due to the decreased number of vessels in the Company’s fleet.

Related party management fees for the second quarter of 2026 increased to $1.96 million from $1.93 million for the same period of 2025. Despite the lower number of vessels in our fleet, this increase is due to the adjustment for inflation in the daily vessel management fee, effective from January 1, 2026, increasing it from 840 Euros to 875 Euros, as well as due to the unfavorable movement of the euro/dollar exchange rate.

Other operating expenses of $0.6 million recognized in the second quarter of 2026 refers to expenses incurred for the formation of the Partnership (as defined below) with a group of investors represented by NRP Project Finance AS (“NRP Investors”). For the second quarter of 2025 the Company recognized other operating income of $0.12 million from an insurance claim.

General and administrative expenses increased to $1.8 million for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $1.4 million for the second quarter of 2025, due to increased professional fees and increased cost for our stock incentive plan.

Interest and other financing costs for the second quarter of 2026 amounted to $2.7 million, compared to $4.0 million for the second quarter of 2025. This decrease is due to the decreased amount of average outstanding debt and the decreased benchmark rates of our loans in the current period compared to the same period of 2025.

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized a $0.3 million unrealized gain on its investments in equity securities, resulting from an increase in the fair value of the investments from $19.65 million as of March 31, 2026 to $19.95 million as of June 30, 2026. These investments, which had an initial cost of $20.0 million and were acquired in the first quarter of 2026 as part of the Company’s short-term cash and liquidity management strategy, are classified as investments in equity securities and measured at fair value through profit or loss in accordance with U.S. GAAP. As part of the same strategy, the Company also acquired debt securities with an initial cost of $20.0 million, classified as available-for-sale under U.S. GAAP, for which the fair value decreased from $19.182 million as of March 31, 2026 to $18.942 million as of June 30, 2026, resulting in an additional unrealized loss of approximately $0.24 million during the second quarter of 2026, which was recognized in “Other comprehensive loss. None of these investments existed in the second quarter of 2025.

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized a $0.05 million realized gain and a $0.11 million unrealized loss for a total of $0.06 million net loss on its interest rate swap contract. The specific contract was closed within the year 2025 and no such case existed in the second quarter of 2026.

The Company reported net income for the period of $32.6 million and net income attributable to controlling shareholders of $33.2 million, as compared to net income and net income attributable to controlling shareholders of $29.9 million for the same period of 2025. The net loss attributable to the non-controlling interest of $0.6 million in the second quarter of 2026 represents the income attributable to the 49% ownership of the entity owning the M/V Thrylos represented by the NRP investors (the “Partnership”).

Adjusted EBITDA¹ for the second quarter of 2026 was $40.1 million compared to $39.3 million achieved during the second quarter of 2025.

Basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to controlling shareholders for the second quarter of 2026 was $4.77 and $4.74, calculated on 6,962,481 basic and 7,010,884 diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding, compared to basic and diluted earnings attributable to controlling shareholders per share of $4.32 and $4.29, respectively, for the second quarter of 2025, calculated on 6,917,212 basic and 6,954,709 diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding.

The adjusted earnings per share attributable to controlling shareholders for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 would have been $4.73 and $4.70 per share basic and diluted, respectively, compared to adjusted earnings attributable to controlling shareholders of $4.23 and $4.20 per share basic and diluted for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Usually, security analysts include Adjusted Net Income attributable to controlling shareholders in their determination of published estimates of earnings per share.

First Half 2026 Results:
For the first half of 2026, the Company reported total net revenues of $112.3 million representing a 1.1% decrease over total net revenues of $113.6 million during the first half of 2025.

Vessel operating expenses for the first half of 2026 amounted to $22.9 million compared to $23.7 million for the same period of 2025. The decrease is due to the lower average number of vessels owned and operated in the first half of 2026 compared to the corresponding period of 2025 partly offset by the higher daily vessel operating expenses, mainly attributable to the increased cost of vessel supplies during the period, because of the war in the Middle East region.

In the first half of 2026 none of our vessels were drydocked. The total drydock cost for the period of $0.3 million relates to supplies performed for upcoming drydocks.

Vessel depreciation expense for the first half of 2026 was $13.4 million compared to $15.3 million during the same period of 2025, due to the decreased number of vessels in the Company’s fleet.

Related party management fees for the first half of 2026 increased to $3.95 million from $3.90 million for the same period of 2025. Despite the lower number of vessels in our fleet, this increase is due to the adjustment for inflation in the daily vessel management fee, effective from January 1, 2026, increasing it from 840 Euros to 875 Euros, as well as due to the unfavorable movement of the euro/dollar exchange rate.

Other operating expenses of $0.44 million recognized in the first half of 2026 refer to expenses incurred for the formation of the Partnership of $0.60 million, partly offset by an operating income from a settlement and closure of a claim with a charterer of $0.16 million.

(1) Average number of vessels is the number of vessels that constituted the Company’s fleet for the relevant period, as measured by the sum of the number of calendar days each vessel was a part of the Company’s fleet during the period divided by the number of calendar days in that period.

(2) Calendar days. We define calendar days as the total number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet was in our possession including off-hire days associated with major repairs, drydockings or special or intermediate surveys or days of vessels in lay-up. Calendar days are an indicator of the size of our fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of expenses that we record during that period.

(3) The scheduled off-hire days including vessels laid-up, vessels committed for sale or vessels that suffered unrepaired damages, are days associated with scheduled repairs, drydockings or special or intermediate surveys or days of vessels in lay-up, or vessels that were committed for sale or suffered unrepaired damages.

(4) Available days. We define available days as the Calendar days in a period net of scheduled off-hire days as defined above. We use available days to measure the number of days in a period during which vessels were available to generate revenues.

(5) Commercial off-hire days. We define commercial off-hire days as days a vessel is idle without employment.

(6) Operational off-hire days. We define operational off-hire days as days associated with unscheduled repairs or other off-hire time related to the operation of the vessels.

(7) Voyage days. We define voyage days as the total number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet was in our possession net of commercial and operational off-hire days. We use voyage days to measure the number of days in a period during which vessels actually generate revenues or are sailing for repositioning purposes.

(8) Fleet utilization. We calculate fleet utilization by dividing the number of our voyage days during a period by the number of our available days during that period. We use fleet utilization to measure a company's efficiency in finding suitable employment for its vessels and minimizing the amount of days that its vessels are off-hire for reasons such as unscheduled repairs or days waiting to find employment.

(9) Fleet utilization, commercial. We calculate commercial fleet utilization by dividing our available days net of commercial off-hire days during a period by our available days during that period.

(10) Fleet utilization, operational. We calculate operational fleet utilization by dividing our available days net of operational off-hire days during a period by our available days during that period.

(11) Average time charter equivalent rate, or average TCE, is a metric of the average daily net revenue performance of our vessels. Our method of calculating average TCE is determined by dividing time charter revenue and voyage charter revenue, if any, net of voyage expenses by voyage days for the relevant time period. Voyage expenses primarily consist of port, canal and fuel costs that are unique to a particular voyage, which would otherwise be paid by the charterer under a time charter contract, or are related to repositioning the vessel for the next charter. Average TCE, which is a non-GAAP metric, provides additional meaningful information in conjunction with time charter revenue and voyage charter revenue, if any, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, because it assists our management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of our vessels and because we believe that it provides useful information to investors regarding our financial performance. Average TCE is a standard shipping industry performance metric used primarily to compare period-to-period changes in a shipping company's performance despite changes in the mix of charter types (i.e., spot voyage charters, time charters and bareboat charters) under which the vessels may be employed between the periods. Our definition of average TCE may not be comparable to that used by other companies in the shipping industry.

(12) We calculate daily vessel operating expenses, which includes crew costs, provisions, deck and engine stores, lubricating oil, insurance, maintenance and repairs and related party management fees by dividing vessel operating expenses and related party management fees by fleet calendar days for the relevant time period. Drydocking expenses are reported separately.

(13) Daily general and administrative expenses are calculated by us by dividing general and administrative expenses by fleet calendar days for the relevant time period.

(14) Total vessel operating expenses, or TVOE, is a measure of our total expenses associated with operating our vessels. TVOE is the sum of vessel operating expenses, related party management fees and general and administrative expenses; drydocking expenses are not included. Daily TVOE is calculated by dividing TVOE by fleet calendar days for the relevant time period.

(15) Daily drydocking expenses are calculated by us by dividing drydocking expenses by the fleet calendar days for the relevant period, Drydocking expenses include expenses during drydockings that would have been capitalized and amortized under the deferral method. Drydocking expenses could vary substantially from period to period depending on how many vessels underwent drydocking during the period. The Company expenses drydocking expenses as incurred.

Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation:
Euroseas Ltd. considers Adjusted EBITDA to represent net income before interest and other financing costs, net, depreciation, loss on interest rate swap derivative, net, gain on sale of vessel, amortization of fair value of below market time charters acquired and unrealized (gain) / loss on investments in equity securities. Adjusted EBITDA does not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, as determined by United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is included herein because it is a basis upon which the Company assesses its financial performance and liquidity position and because the Company believes that this non-GAAP financial measure assists our management and investors by increasing the comparability of our performance from period to period by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods of financial costs, loss on interest rate swaps, gain on sale of vessel, depreciation, amortization of below market time charters acquired and unrealized (gain) / loss on investments in equity securities. The Company's definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as that used by other companies in the shipping or other industries.

Adjusted net income attributable to controlling shareholders and Adjusted earnings per share attributable to controlling shareholders Reconciliation:

Euroseas Ltd. considers Adjusted net income attributable to controlling shareholders to represent net income attributable to controlling shareholders before unrealized loss on derivative, gain on sale of vessel, amortization of below market time charters acquired, vessel depreciation on the portion of the consideration of vessels acquired with attached time charters allocated to below market time charters and unrealized (gain) / loss on investments in equity securities. Adjusted net income attributable to controlling shareholders and Adjusted earnings attributable to controlling shareholders per share are included herein because we believe they assist our management and investors by increasing the comparability of the Company's fundamental performance from period to period by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods of the aforementioned items, which may significantly affect results of operations between periods.

Adjusted net income attributable to controlling shareholders and Adjusted earnings attributable to controlling shareholders per share do not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or earnings per share, as determined by GAAP. The Company's definition of Adjusted net income attributable to controlling shareholders and Adjusted earnings attributable to controlling shareholders per share may not be the same as that used by other companies in shipping or other industries. Adjusted net income attributable to controlling shareholders and Adjusted earnings per share attributable to controlling shareholders are not adjusted for all non-cash income and expense items that are reflected in our statement of cash flows.
