Genco Shipping & Trading Rejects George Economou Nominees

NEW YORK, March 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Genco Shipping & Trading Limited (NYSE:GNK) ("Genco" or the "Company"), the largest U.S. headquartered drybulk shipowner focused on the global transportation of commodities, today announced that its Board of Directors (the "Board") has unanimously rejected the proposed nomination of Randee Day and Robert Pons by George Economou through his entity GK Investor LLC to stand for election to the Board at the Company's 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

The Company issued the following statement:

Our Board of Directors thoroughly evaluated both nominees and determined on the unanimous recommendation of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, which is comprised of independent directors, that adding them to the Board would not be in the best interest of the Company or its shareholders.

As part of its review process, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee interviewed both nominees and determined that they respectively are not additive to our Board's existing skills and expertise or lack sufficient experience in shipping and related industries.

Our Board already possesses significant, essential experience for Genco, including experience in shipping, fleet management and commercial and technical management, capital allocation management, financial reporting and M&A. The Board has also strengthened its experience and expertise in critical commodities markets with Paramita Das' appointment, which follows a comprehensive search process that was well underway mid-last year.

Our Board remains committed to our strong governance practices and actions it believes will create the most shareholder value. To that end, the Board is focused on our Comprehensive Value Strategy to drive value through drybulk shipping market cycles. Genco is delivering solid operating and financial results, as shown by its recent strong earnings for Q4 2023, all while advancing its priorities of reducing debt, returning capital to shareholders through dividends and investing in growth.

Our directors are active, engaged and open-minded with respect to value-creation opportunities. The Board will continue to take actions it believes are in the best interest of the Company and all its shareholders.

The Board will make its formal recommendation regarding director nominations in its proxy statement for its 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, which will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and mailed to shareholders in due course.

Important Additional Information Regarding Proxy Solicitation

Genco intends to file a proxy statement and associated WHITE proxy card with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in connection with the solicitation of proxies for Genco's 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Proxy Statement"). Genco, its directors and certain of its executive officers will be participants in the solicitation of proxies from shareholders in respect of the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Information regarding the names of Genco's directors and executive officers and their respective interests in Genco by security holdings or otherwise is set forth in Genco's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2024 and Genco's proxy statement for the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, filed with the SEC on April 6, 2023. To the extent holdings of such participants in Genco's securities are not reported, or have changed since the amounts described, in the 2023 proxy statement, such changes have been reflected on Initial Statements of Beneficial Ownership on Form 3 or Statements of Change in Ownership on Form 4 filed with the SEC. Details concerning the nominees of Genco's Board of Directors for election at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders will be included in the Proxy Statement. BEFORE MAKING ANY VOTING DECISION, INVESTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY ARE URGED TO READ ALL RELEVANT DOCUMENTS FILED WITH OR FURNISHED TO THE SEC, INCLUDING THE COMPANY'S DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT AND ANY SUPPLEMENTS THERETO AND ACCOMPANYING WHITE PROXY CARD WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE, BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION.

"But we have not achieved our tremendous increase in shareholder value by making shareholder value the primary purpose of our business. In my marriage, my wife's happiness is an end in itself, not merely a means to my own happiness; love leads me to put my wife's happiness first, but in doing so I also make myself happier. Similarly, the most successful businesses put the customer first, ahead of the investors. In the profit-centered business, customer happiness is merely a means to an end: maximizing profits. In the customer-centered business, customer happiness is an end in itself, and will be pursued with greater interest, passion, and empathy than the profit-centered business is capable of." - John Mackey
