Aristides Pittas, Chairman and CEO of
Euroseas commented: “During the fourth
quarter of 2020 and early 2021, containership time charter rates
have increased significantly despite further concerns about the
coronavirus pandemic, exceeding median levels and reaching
twelve-year highs for certain sizes. The quarter also registered an
increase of more than 40% in secondhand sale prices for the 1,700
to 4,500 teu containership size range, for both younger and older
fleets.
“Our fleet benefitted from the market increase
as four of our vessels renewed their charters at rates more than
double their previous levels and are set to make significant
contributions to our earnings. We remain very optimistic for the
medium term prospects of the market due to the relatively low
orderbook, the expected rebound of the containerized trade,
especially, if the COVID-19 pandemic comes under control and the
expanding regulatory and environmental requirements that
effectively increase the need for more vessel capacity. If, as
result of the above trends, the charter rates remain near their
current levels for the next four to five months, we should be able
to renew the charters of almost all of our vessels at similarly
higher rates than they currently earn further contributing to our
profitability.
“Given the increasing interest in the sector
from both public and private capital markets, our overall strategy
remains focused on exploiting our position as the only
publicly-listed feeder and small containership-focused company to
continue growing pursuing accretive opportunities via mergers or
combinations with privately owned vessels or fleets.”
Tasos Aslidis, Chief Financial Officer
of Euroseas commented: “The operating results of the
fourth quarter of 2020 reflect the increased levels of charter
rates in the containership markets as compared to the same period
of 2019, with net income amounting to $0.6 million for the fourth
quarter in 2020 compared to a net loss of $0.8 million for the
fourth quarter of 2019. On average, during the fourth quarter of
2020, our vessels earned approximately 15.5% higher time charter
equivalent rates compared to the fourth quarter of 2019.”
“Total daily vessel operating expenses,
including management fees, general and administrative expenses, but
excluding drydocking costs, were higher by 15.9% during the fourth
quarter of 2020 compared to the same quarter of last year. The
increased operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2020 are
mainly due to increased crewing costs for our vessels compared to
the same period of 2019, resulting from difficulties in crew
rotation due to COVID-19 related restrictions. Adjusted EBITDA
during the fourth quarter of 2020 was $2.1 million compared to the
$1.2 million achieved in fourth quarter of last year, and it
reached $11.8 million versus $5.3 million for the respective
twelve-month periods of 2020 and 2019.”
“As of December 31, 2020, our outstanding bank
debt (excluding the unamortized loan fees) was $67.3 million,
versus restricted and unrestricted cash of approximately $6.3
million.”
Fourth Quarter 2020 Results:
For the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company reported total net
revenues of $12.0 million representing a 9.6% decrease over total
net revenues of $13.3 million during the fourth quarter of 2019,
which was the result of the decreased average number of vessels
operating in the fourth quarter of 2020, partly offset by the
higher time charter rates our vessels earned in the fourth quarter
of 2020 compared to the corresponding period of 2019. The Company
reported net income for the period of $0.6 million and net income
attributable to common shareholders of $0.4 million, as compared to
a net loss of $0.8 million and a net loss attributable to common
shareholders of $0.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2019.
Drydocking expenses amounted to $0.1 million during the fourth
quarter of 2020 comprising the cost of one vessel completing her
intermediate survey in-water. For the same period of 2019
drydocking expenses amounted to $1.5 million comprising the cost of
one vessel completing her special survey with drydock and two
vessels completing their intermediate surveys in-water.
Depreciation expense for the fourth quarter of 2020 increased to
$1.6 million from $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019.
Although the average number of vessels operating in the fourth
quarter of 2020 decreased to 14.43 as compared to 16.84 for the
same period of 2019, the new vessels acquired at the end of 2019,
have a higher average daily depreciation charge as a result of
their higher initial values (acquisition price) compared to the
remaining vessels.
On average, 14.43 vessels were owned and
operated during the fourth quarter of 2020 earning an average time
charter equivalent rate of $10,497 per day compared to 16.84
vessels in the same period of 2019 earning on average $9,086 per
day.
Adjusted EBITDA1 for the fourth quarter of 2020
was $2.1 million compared to $1.2 million for the corresponding
period in 2019.
Basic and diluted earnings per share
attributable to common shareholders for the fourth quarter of 2020
was $0.07 calculated on 6,149,300 basic and diluted weighted
average number of shares outstanding, compared to a basic and
diluted loss per share of $0.18 for the fourth quarter of 2019,
calculated on 5,036,122 basic and diluted weighted average number
of shares outstanding.
Excluding the effect on the income attributable
to common shareholders for the quarter of the unrealized gain on
derivatives, the amortization of below market time charters
acquired and the gain on sale of a vessel, the adjusted loss
attributable to common shareholders for the quarter ended December
31, 2020 would have been $0.16 per share basic and diluted compared
to an adjusted loss of $0.32 per share basic and diluted for the
quarter ended December 31, 2019. Usually, security analysts do not
include the above items in their published estimates of earnings
per share.
Full Year 2020 Results: For the
full year of 2020, the Company reported total net revenues of $53.3
million representing a 33.2% increase over total net revenues of
$40.0 million during the twelve months of 2019. The Company
reported net income for the year of $4.0 million and net income
attributable to common shareholders of $3.3 million, as compared to
a net loss of $1.7 million and a net loss attributable to common
shareholders of $3.5 million for the twelve months of 2019. The
results for the twelve months of 2020 include $1.7 million of
amortization of below market charters acquired, a $0.6 million
unrealized loss on derivatives, a $2.5 million net gain on sale of
vessels and a $0.1 million loss on write-down of vessel held for
sale. The results for the twelve months of 2019 include a $0.9
million of amortization of below market charters acquired and $0.04
million of unrealized gain on derivatives. Our results have also
benefitted from other income of $2.7 million related to insurance
proceeds from an “unrepaired damage” claim agreed with the H&M
underwriters for our vessel EM Oinousses, which was eventually sold
in July 2020. Depreciation expense for the twelve months of 2020
was $6.6 million compared to $4.2 million during the same period of
2019, due to the increased number of vessels in the Company’s
fleet.
Vessel operating expenses for the twelve months
of 2020 amounted to $32.2 million as compared to $24.0 million for
the same period of 2019. The increased amount is due to the higher
number of vessels owned and operated in the twelve months of 2020
compared to the same period of 2019. Additionally, some of our
vessels incurred increased crewing costs in 2020 compared to 2019,
resulting from difficulties in crew rotation due to COVID-19
related restrictions. Related party management fees for the twelve
months of 2020 were $5.3 million compared to $3.7 million for the
same period of 2019. The increase is due to the higher average
number of vessels operated by the Company in the twelve months of
2020 as compared to the same period of 2019 as well as due to
termination fees paid for the vessels sold in accordance with the
management agreement.
Drydocking expenses amounted to $0.5 million for
the twelve months of 2020 (one vessel passed her intermediate
survey in-water and three vessels passed their special survey
in-water), compared to $2.7 million for the same period of 2019
(one of our vessels completed her special survey with drydock,
another four vessels completed their intermediate surveys in-water
and a vessel completed her special survey with drydock that started
in 2018).
On average, 17.23 vessels were owned and
operated during the twelve months of 2020 earning an average time
charter equivalent rate of $9,445 per day compared to 13.10 vessels
in the same period of 2019 earning on average $8,782 per
day.
Interest and other financing costs for the
twelve months of 2020 amounted to $4.1 million compared to $3.4
million for the same period of 2019. This increase is due to the
increased amount of debt in the current period compared to the same
period of 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA1 for the twelve months of 2020
was $11.8 million compared to $5.3 million during the twelve months
of 2019.
Basic and diluted earnings per share
attributable to common shareholders for the twelve months of 2020
was $0.58, calculated on 5,753,917 basic and diluted weighted
average number of shares outstanding compared to basic and diluted
loss per share of $1.21 for the twelve months of 2019, calculated
on 2,861,928 basic and diluted weighted average number of shares
outstanding.
Excluding the effect on the income attributable
to common shareholders for the twelve months of 2020 of the
unrealized loss on derivatives, the amortization of the below
market time charters acquired, the net gain on sale of vessels and
the loss on write down of vessel held for sale, the adjusted loss
attributable to common shareholders for the year ended December 31,
2020 would have been $0.02 per share compared to adjusted loss of
$1.52 per share basic and diluted for 2019, which was also adjusted
by excluding unrealized gain on derivatives and amortization of the
below market time charters acquired. As previously mentioned,
usually, security analysts do not include the above items in their
published estimates of earnings per share.

(**)The CONTEX (Container Ship Time Charter
Assessment Index) has been published by the Hamburg and Bremen
Shipbrokers’ Association (VHBS) since October 2007. The CONTEX is a
company-independent index of time charter rates for container
ships. It is based on assessments of the current day charter rates
of six selected container ship types, which are representative of
their size categories: Type 1,100 TEU and Type 1,700 TEU with a
charter period of one year, and the Types 2,500, 2,700, 3,500 and
4,250 TEU, all with a charter period of two years.

(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 with 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) Time charter equivalent rate, or TCE rate,
is a measure of the average daily revenue performance of our
vessels. Our method of calculating TCE is determined by dividing
time charter revenue and voyage charter revenue 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. TCE is a standard
shipping industry performance measure 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 TCE
may not be comparable to that used by other companies in the
shipping industry.
(12) Daily vessel operating expenses, which
includes crew costs, provisions, deck and engine stores,
lubricating oil, insurance, maintenance and repairs and management
fees are calculated 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 expense is
calculated 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, 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) Drydocking expenses include expenses during
drydockings that would have been capitalized and amortized under
the deferral method, divided by the fleet calendar days for the
relevant period. 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 /
(loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation, loss on
interest rate swap derivatives, net gain on sale of vessels,
amortization of below market time charters acquired and loss on
write down of vessel held for sale. Adjusted EBITDA does not
represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net
income / (loss), 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 we believe 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, amortization of below market time charters acquired, loss on
interest rate swaps, net gain on sale of vessels, loss on write
down of vessel held for sale and depreciation. 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 (loss) / income and
Adjusted loss per share Reconciliation: Euroseas Ltd.
considers Adjusted net (loss) / income to represent net (loss) /
income before unrealized loss / (gain) on derivatives, net gain on
sale of vessels, loss on write down of vessel held for sale and
amortization of below market time charters acquired. Adjusted net
(loss)/income and Adjusted loss per share is included herein
because we believe it assists 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 unrealized loss / (gain) on
derivatives, net gain on sale of vessels, loss on write down of
vessel held for sale and amortization of below market time charters
acquired, which items may significantly affect results of
operations between periods
Adjusted net (loss) / income and Adjusted loss
per share do not represent and should not be considered as an
alternative to net loss or loss per share, as determined by GAAP.
The Company's definition of Adjusted net (loss) / income and
Adjusted loss per share may not be the same as that used by other
companies in the shipping or other industries.

Forward Looking Statement This
press release contains forward-looking statements (as defined in
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) concerning
future events and the Company's growth strategy and measures to
implement such strategy; including expected vessel acquisitions and
entering into further time charters. Words such as "expects,"
"intends," "plans," "believes," "anticipates," "hopes,"
"estimates," and variations of such words and similar expressions
are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Although the
Company believes that the expectations reflected in such
forward-looking statements are reasonable, no assurance can be
given that such expectations will prove to have been correct. These
statements involve known and unknown risks and are based upon a
number of assumptions and estimates that are inherently subject to
significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are
beyond the control of the Company. Actual results may differ
materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially include, but are not limited to changes in the demand
for containerships, competitive factors in the market in which the
Company operates; risks associated with operations outside the
United States; and other factors listed from time to time in the
Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The
Company expressly disclaims any obligations or undertaking to
release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking
statements contained herein to reflect any change in the Company's
expectations with respect thereto or any change in events,
conditions or circumstances on which any statement is
based.
