This report contains certain forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our or our management's expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future and other statements that are other than statements of historical fact. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "might," "plan," "possible," "potential," "predict," "project," "should," "would" and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
The forward-looking statements in this report are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, management's examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third parties. Although we believe that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond our control, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections. As a result, you are cautioned not to rely on any forward-looking statements.
In addition to these important factors, important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include among other things:
·

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

The following operating and financial review and prospectus should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included herein. Unless the context indicates otherwise, references to the "Company", "we", "us" or "our" include Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. and any one or more of its subsidiaries or all such entities. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

We use the term deadweight ton, or dwt, in describing the size of our vessels. Dwt, expressed in metric tons, each of which is equivalent to 1,000 kilograms, refers to the maximum weight of cargo and supplies that a vessel can carry. Capesize vessels range in size between 100,000 to 220,000 dwt. Supramax vessels range in size between 40,000 to 65,000 dwt. Unless otherwise indicated, all references in the report to "$" or "dollars" are to U.S. dollars.


Introduction
We are an international shipping company specializing in the worldwide seaborne transportation of drybulk commodities.  We currently own a fleet of ten drybulk carriers, comprised of eight Capesize vessels and two Supramax vessels, with a combined cargo-carrying capacity of approximately 1,503,369 dwt and an average age of approximately 8.2 years.
Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
Due to economic conditions and operational difficulties, in 2012 we began restructuring discussions and settlement agreements with each of our lenders under our prior loan facility agreements. In March 2014, we completed our restructuring, following which we did not own any vessels.
In March 2015, we acquired the first vessel in our current fleet, a secondhand Capesize drybulk vessel, from an unaffiliated third party for $17.1 million. The acquisition was funded with proceeds from a senior secured loan, an unsecured convertible promissory note issued to an entity affiliated with our principal shareholder, who we refer to as our Sponsor, and the sale of common shares to our Sponsor. Between September and December of 2015, we acquired seven additional secondhand drybulk vessels, consisting of five Capesize and two Supramax vessels, from entities affiliated with our Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $183.4 million. These acquisitions were funded with proceeds from senior secured loans, a revolving convertible promissory note issued to an entity affiliated with our Sponsor, and the sale of common shares to our Sponsor.  Between November and December of 2016, we acquired two further secondhand Capesize vessels from an unaffiliated third party for an aggregate purchase price of $41.5 million. These acquisitions were funded with proceeds from a senior secured loan, a secured loan facility from an entity affiliated with our Sponsor and cash on hand.

On January 7, 2016, we effected a one-for-five reverse split of our common stock. The reverse stock split became effective and our common shares began trading on a split-adjusted basis on the Nasdaq Capital Market at the opening of trading on January 8, 2016. There was no change in the number of authorized shares or the par value of our common stock. All share and per share amounts disclosed herein give effect to this reverse stock split retroactively, for all periods presented.

Important Measures and Definitions for Analyzing Results of Operations

We use a variety of financial and operational terms and concepts. These include the following:

Ownership days. Ownership days are the total number of calendar days in a period during which we owned each vessel in our fleet. Ownership 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 recorded during that period.

Available days. Available days are the number of ownership days less the aggregate number of days that our vessels are off-hire due to major repairs, dry-dockings, lay-up or special or intermediate surveys. The shipping industry uses available days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period during which vessels should be capable of generating revenues.

Operating days. Operating days are the number of available days in a period less the aggregate number of days that our vessels are off-hire for any reason, including off-hire days between successive voyages, as well as other unforeseen circumstances. The shipping industry uses operating days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period during which vessels actually generate revenues.

Fleet utilization. Fleet utilization is the percentage of time that our vessels were generating revenues, and is determined by dividing operating days by ownership days for the relevant period.
3


Fleet utilization excluding dry-docking and lay-up off-hire days. Fleet utilization excluding dry-docking and lay-up off-hire days is calculated by dividing the number of our fleet's operating days during a period by the number of available days during that period. The shipping industry uses fleet utilization excluding dry-docking and lay-up off-hire days to measure a company's efficiency in finding suitable employment for its vessels and excluding the amount of days that its vessels are off-hire for reasons such as scheduled repairs, vessel upgrades, dry-dockings, special or intermediate surveys and lay-ups.

Off-hire. The period a vessel is not being chartered or is unable to perform the services for which it is required under a charter.

Drydocking.  We periodically dry-dock each of our vessels for inspection, repairs and maintenance and any modifications to comply with industry certification or governmental requirements.

Time charter. A time charter is a contract for the use of a vessel for a specific period of time during which the charterer pays substantially all of the voyage expenses, including port charges, bunker expenses, canal charges and other commissions. The vessel owner pays the vessel operating expenses, which include crew costs, provisions, deck and engine stores and spares, lubricants, insurance, maintenance and repairs. The vessel owner is also responsible for each vessel's dry-docking and intermediate and special survey costs. Time charter rates are usually fixed during the term of the charter. Prevailing time charter rates do fluctuate on a seasonal and year-to-year basis and may be substantially higher or lower from a prior time charter agreement when the subject vessel is seeking to renew the time charter agreement with the existing charterer or enter into a new time charter agreement with another charterer. Fluctuations in time charter rates are influenced by changes in spot charter rates.

Voyage charter.  A voyage charter is generally a contract to carry a specific cargo from a load port to a discharge port for an agreed-upon total amount. Under voyage charters, voyage expenses, such as port charges, bunker expenses, canal charges and other commissions, are paid by the vessel owner, who also pays vessel operating expenses.

TCE.  Time charter equivalent, or TCE, rate is defined as our net revenue less voyage expenses during a period divided by the number of our operating days during the period. Voyage expenses include port charges, bunker expenses, canal charges and other commissions.

Daily Vessel Operating Expenses. Daily Vessel Operating Expenses are calculated by dividing vessel operating expenses less pre-delivery expenses by ownership days for the relevant time periods. Vessel operating expenses include crew costs, provisions, deck and engine stores, lubricants, insurance, maintenance and repairs. Vessel operating expenses before pre-delivery expenses exclude one-time pre-delivery and pre-joining expenses associated with initial crew manning and supply of stores of Company's vessels upon delivery.

Principal Factors Affecting Our Business

The principal factors that affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows include the following:

·
number of vessels owned and operated;
·
voyage charter rates;
·
time charter trip rates;
·
the nature and duration of our voyage charters;
·
vessels repositioning;
·
vessel operating expenses and direct voyage costs;
·
maintenance and upgrade work;
·
the age, condition and specifications of our vessels;
·
amount of debt obligations; and
·
financing costs related to debt obligations.

We are also affected by the types of charters we enter into.  Vessels operating on period time charters and bareboat time charters provide more predictable cash flows, but can yield lower profit margins than vessels operating in the spot charter market, either on trip time charters or voyage charters, during periods characterized by favorable market conditions.

Vessels operating in the spot charter market generate revenues that are less predictable, but can yield increased profit margins during periods of improvements in drybulk rates. Spot charters also expose vessel owners to the risk of declining drybulk rates and rising fuel costs in case of voyage charters. All of our vessels in 2014, 2015 and 2016 operated in the spot charter market, except for the Lordship that we acquired on November 30, 2016 and which has been employed on a short time charter under her previous ownership and is expected to be redelivered to us in June 2017.

Vessel Revenue, Net – The increase was attributable to the increase in operating days. We had 2,444 operating days in 2016 as compared to 598 operating days in 2015. We incurred 173 off-hire days for a vessel lay-up in 2016. In 2016, we acquired two vessels, with delivery dates of November 30 and December 13. In 2015 we acquired eight vessels, with the first vessel delivered on March 19, 2015 and the remaining seven vessels delivered between September 11, 2015 and December 7, 2015.

Direct Voyage Expenses – The increase was attributable to the increase in ownership days. We had 2,978 ownership days in 2016 as compared to 776 ownership days in 2015.

Vessel Operating Expenses – The increase was attributable to the increase in ownership days. However, the daily vessel operating expenses for 2016 were lower than those of 2015, as described below in section "Performance Indicators".

Management Fees – The increase was attributable to the increase in ownership days.

General and administrative expenses – The increase is mainly attributable to $0.5 million bonus compensation and $0.6 million of stock based compensation amortization for shares granted pursuant to our 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, compared to $0.2 million of respective stock based compensation amortization for 2015.

Depreciation and Amortization – The increase was attributable to the increase in ownership days.

Interest and Finance Costs – The increase was primarily attributable to our having higher outstanding indebtedness and a higher weighted average interest rate in 2016 compared to 2015. On March 17, 2015, we drew down $8.75 million under the first of our credit facilities, and we drew down $170.3 million under four other of our credit facilities between September 11, 2015 and December 7, 2015. Additionally, we drew down $44.8 million under two new credit facilities between October 2016 and December 2016. Furthermore, our indebtedness under the two convertible promissory notes we issued to Jelco Delta Holding Corp., or Jelco, a company affiliated with our Sponsor, was higher in 2016 as compared to 2015 due to additional drawdowns of $9.4 million during 2016 under the unsecured revolving convertible promissory note, dated September 7, 2015. The weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt and convertible promissory notes for the years ended 2016 and 2015 was approximately 4.05% and 3.85%, respectively.

Vessel Revenue, Net - The increase was attributable to the increase in operating days. We had 598 operating days in 2015 as compared to 142 operating days in 2014. In accordance with our financial restructuring plan, our four remaining vessels were sold in March 2014. By comparison, in 2015 we acquired eight vessels, with the first vessel delivered on March 19, 2015 and the remaining seven vessels delivered between September 11, 2015 and December 7, 2015.

Direct Voyage Expenses - The increase was attributable to the increase in ownership days. We had 776 ownership days in 2015 as compared to 268 ownership days in 2014.

Vessel Operating Expenses - The increase was attributable to the increase in ownership days.

Management Fees - The increase was attributable to the increase in ownership days.

Depreciation and Amortization - The increase was attributable to our acquiring our fleet of eight drybulk carriers in 2015. By comparison we effectively had no depreciation charges in 2014 for the four vessels we then owned until their disposal in March 2014, as those assets were classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2013, and thus the four vessels were no longer depreciated.

Gain on restructuring - In 2014 we recognized a gain of $85.6 million from the sale of our then four remaining vessels related to the loan facility agreement with Piraeus Bank. We had no similar gain in 2015.

Interest and Finance Costs - The increase was primarily attributable to our having higher outstanding indebtedness as a result of our drawing down a total of $194 million in 2015 under five credit facilities we entered into in 2015 for the acquisition of eight vessels as well as the two convertible promissory notes issued to Jelco. The weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt for the years ended 2015 and 2014 was approximately 3.85% and 4.9%, respectively

We include TCE rate, a non-GAAP measure, as we believe it provides additional meaningful information in conjunction with net revenues from vessels, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, because it assists our management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of our vessels and in evaluating their financial performance. Our calculation of TCE rate may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. The following table reconciles our net revenues from vessels to TCE rate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal source of funds has been our operating cash inflows, long-term borrowings from banks and our Sponsor, and equity provided by the capital markets and our Sponsor. Our principal use of funds has primarily been capital expenditures to establish our fleet, maintain the quality of our drybulk vessels, comply with international shipping standards and environmental laws and regulations, fund working capital requirements, and make principal repayments and interest payments on our outstanding debt obligations.

Our funding and treasury activities are conducted in accordance to corporate policies to maximize investment returns while maintaining appropriate liquidity for both our short and long term needs. This includes arranging borrowing facilities on a cost-effective basis. Cash and cash equivalents are held primarily in U.S. dollars, with minimal amounts held in Euros.

As of December 31, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $12.9 million, as compared to $3.3 million as of December 31, 2015.

Working capital is equal to current assets minus current liabilities, including the current portion of long-term debt. As of December 31, 2016, we had a working capital surplus of $1.1 million as compared to a working capital deficit of $1.0 million as of December 31, 2015. Our working capital primarily increased due to the net proceeds received from the sales of our securities during 2016, the increase in the amount we could borrow under the revolving convertible promissory note issued by us to Jelco dated September 7, 2015, offset by debt principal payments reclassified to current liabilities from non-current liabilities at December 31, 2016.

As of December 31, 2016, we had total indebtedness of $216 million, excluding unamortized financing fees, as compared to $178.5 million as of December 31, 2015. Our total indebtedness increased due to borrowings under our new loan agreements entered into with Northern Shipping Fund III LP, or NSF, and Jelco in 2016.

Since December 31, 2016, significant transactions impacting our liquidity and capital resources include:

On February 3, 2017, we entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement with Maxim Group LLC, or "Maxim", as sales agent, under which we may offer and sell, from time to time through Maxim up to $20 million of our common shares. We refer to this as the "public at-the-market offering". We will determine, at our sole discretion, the timing and number of shares to be sold pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement along with any minimum price below which sales may not be made.  Maxim will make any sales pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement using its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices. Sales of common shares may be made by means of ordinary brokers' transactions on the Nasdaq Capital Market, in negotiated transactions or transactions that are deemed to be "at the market" offerings as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange, at prices related to the prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. As of April 3, 2017, we have sold 2,019,675 of our common shares for an aggregate net proceeds of $1.9 million in connection with this public at-the-market offering. Maxim has received aggregate compensation of $0.1 million for such sales in the aggregate amount.

On March 7, 2017, we entered into a supplemental and a settlement agreement with Natixis to the secured term loan facility dated December 2, 2015.  Under the terms of the supplemental agreement the secured term loan will now be repayable in four installments: $2 million due April 28, 2017, $2 million due June 30, 2017, $3 million due September 29, 2017, and $32.4 million due May 2, 2018.  In addition, the supplemental agreement waives the application of the minimum required security cover requirement and all the financial covenant requirements under the secured term loan facility until the termination date of the loan, which is May 2, 2018. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, we have an option, until September 29, 2017, to satisfy the full amount of the facility by making a prepayment of $28 million, which includes any payments made in connection with the first three installment payments.  Upon such prepayment, the facility will be deemed satisfied in full.

On March 28, 2017, we entered into an agreement with an unaffiliated third party for the purchase of a secondhand Capesize vessel, for a gross purchase price of $32.65 million. The vessel has cargo-carrying capacity of 179,213 deadweight tons, was built in 2012 at Hyundai in South Korea and is expected to be delivered by the end of May 2017. A deposit of $3.3 was paid with cash in hand on March 30, 2017.

On March 28, 2017, we entered into a $47.5 million secured loan agreement with Jelco. We refer to this as the Jelco Backstop Facility. Under the terms of the Jelco Backstop Facility, Jelco will make available this facility to us, in the event that we are not able to secure third party financing to partially fund the Natixis settlement agreement, as well as the balance purchase price of the 2012-built Capesize vessel that we agreed to purchase on March 28, 2017, each as described above. Specifically, Jelco will make available an advance of up to $18 million to partly refinance the repayment under the Natixis settlement agreement and an advance of up to $29.5 million to partly finance the new vessel acquisition. Each advance will be available up to the earlier of (i) May 2, 2018 and (ii) the date on which each advance is fully borrowed, cancelled or terminated. However, advances are subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions precedent as well as obtaining an independent third party fairness opinion for resetting the conversion price to be included in an amendment to the convertible promissory note dated September 7, 2015, issued by the Company to Jelco, and such conversion price to be amended to the lower of (i) the conversion price as defined in the note and (ii) a price determined by an independent third party that is determined to be fair to all the Company's shareholders. The facility bears interest at 3-month LIBOR plus a 7% margin. The loan is payable in one bullet payment fourteen months from the final drawdown date.  The facility will be secured by a first preferred mortgage of the Championship and the new vessel that we agreed to acquire and a general assignment to cover earnings, insurances, charterparties and requisition compensation and technical and commercial managers' undertakings. The vessel owning subsidiaries that own the Championship and the new vessel we have agreed to acquire will provide a guarantee to Jelco for Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp.'s obligations under the facility.

On March 28, 2017, we and Jelco entered into an eighth amendment to the revolving convertible promissory note issued by us to Jelco dated September 7, 2015, as amended, pursuant to which the Applicable Limit (as defined in such revolving convertible promissory note) will no longer be reduced by $3.1 million on September 7, 2017, and instead the Applicable Limit will only be reduced by $3.1 million each on September 7, 2018 and September 7, 2019.

Our short-term liquidity commitments primarily relate to debt and interest repayments of approximately $27.2 million under our credit facilities and convertible promissory notes due within one year of the date hereof (see "–Description of Indebtedness" and "Contractual Obligations"), our anticipated prepayment of $28 million in connection with the settlement of the Natixis loan facility and payment of the balance of $29.4 million in connection with our acquisition of a secondhand Capesize vessel that we expect to be delivered by the end of May 2017.  We expect to fund these commitments with cash on hand, cash inflows from operations, new loans with third parties, our existing at-the-market offering, and, if necessary, the Jelco Backstop Facility. Our cash flow projections indicate that cash on hand and cash to be provided by operating activities, along with proceeds from new debt financing and equity offerings, will be sufficient to cover the liquidity needs that become due in the twelve-month period ending one year after the financial statements' issuance.
Our long-term liquidity commitments primarily relate to the repayment of our long-term debt balances under our credit facilities, other than the Natixis Loan Facility, and convertible promissory notes issued to Jelco. Please see "–Description of Indebtedness."  We expect to fund these commitments with cash on hand, new loan, refinancing of existing financing arrangements and/or public and private debt and equity transactions in the capital markets.

The facility bears interest at 3-month LIBOR plus a 7% margin. The loan is payable in one bullet payment fourteen months from the final drawdown date.  The facility will be secured by a first preferred mortgage of the Championship and the new vessel that we agreed to acquire and a general assignment to cover earnings, insurances, charter parties and requisition compensation and technical and commercial managers' undertakings. The vessel owning subsidiaries that own the Championship and the new vessel we have agreed to acquire will provide a guarantee to Jelco for Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp.'s obligations under the facility.
Convertible Promissory Notes

On March 12, 2015, we issued an unsecured convertible promissory note for $4.0 million to Jelco. The note is repayable in ten consecutive semi-annual installments of $0.2 million, along with a balloon installment of $2.0 million payable on the final maturity date, March 19, 2020. The note bears interest at three-month LIBOR plus a margin of 5% with interest payable quarterly. We have the right to defer up to three consecutive installments to the balloon installment. As of the date hereof, we have deferred all three installments due for payment on March 19, 2016, on September 16, 2016, and March 17, 2017 to the final maturity date. At Jelco's option, the principal amount under the convertible note may be paid at any time in common shares at a conversion price of $0.90 (adjusted for the reverse stock split discussed above according to the terms of the convertible note) per share. Jelco also received customary registration rights with respect to any shares received upon conversion of the note. As of December 31, 2016, $3.8 million was outstanding under the note.

On September 7, 2015, we issued an unsecured revolving convertible promissory note to Jelco for an amount up to $6.8 million, or the Applicable Limit. The note was subsequently amended eight times between December 2015 and March 2017.  As amended, the Applicable Limit has been raised to $21.2 million. The Applicable Limit will be reduced by $3.1 million each on September 7, 2018 and September 7, 2019. The aggregate outstanding principal is repayable on September 10, 2020, however, principal is also repayable earlier to the extent that the aggregate outstanding principal exceeds the Applicable Limit (as it may be reduced from time to time). The note bears interest at three-month LIBOR plus a margin of 5% with interest payable quarterly. At Jelco's option, our obligation to repay the principal amount under the revolving convertible note may be paid in common shares at a conversion price of $0.90 (adjusted for the reverse stock split discussed above according to the terms of the convertible note) per share. Under the terms of the Jelco Backstop Facility, we have agreed that as a condition precedent to any advance, we will enter into an amendment to the note to reset the conversion price of the note to the lower of (i) the conversion price as defined in the note and (ii) a price determined by an independent third party that is determined to be fair to all the Company's shareholders.  Jelco has also received customary registration rights with respect to any shares received upon conversion of the note. As of December 31, 2016, $21.2 million was outstanding under the note.

Trend Information

Our results of operations depend primarily on the charter rates earned by our vessels. Over the course of 2016, the Baltic Dry Index (the "BDI") has been volatile, reaching an all-time low of 290 on February 10, 2016 while the high for the year of 1,257 was reached on November 18, 2016.

Over the past five years the size of the dry bulk fleet in dwt terms has grown by 42% while total seaborne dry bulk trade has grown by 15%. As a result of these supply and demand dynamics, the performance of the BDI has been characterized by high volatility over the past years. In 2015, the BDI averaged 718 points. It ranged from a low of 471 on December 16, 2015 to a high of 1,222 reached on August 5, 2015. In 2014, the BDI averaged 1,105 points. It ranged from a low of 723 reached on July 22, 2014 to a high of 2,113 on January 2, 2014. In 2013, the BDI averaged 1,206 points. It ranged from a low of 698 on January 2, 2013 to a high of 1,206 reached on December 12, 2013. In 2012, the BDI averaged 920 points. It ranged from a low of 647 on February 3, 2012 to a high of 1,624 reached on January 3, 2012. In 2011, the BDI averaged 1,549 points. It ranged from a low of 1,043 on February 4, 2011 to a high of 2,173 reached on October 14, 2011.

During 2016, demand for dry bulk transportation grew by 1.3%. Specifically, seaborne trade in iron ore grew by 3.6%, trade in grains grew by 3.6%, trade in minor bulks fell by 0.3% and coal trade volume remained approximately unchanged. At the same time, fleet supply grew by 2% in 2016. During the year, the Supramax fleet grew by 8.8% in terms of dwt while the Capesize fleet grew about 3.6% in terms of dwt. As of the end of 2016 the total order book for dry bulk vessels stood at about 11.18%, down from 17.3% of the fleet at the end of 2015. According to tentative projections, the total size of the dry bulk fleet is expected to rise by about 1.9% in 2017.

Since the second half of 2016 an improvement in dry bulk conditions has started to take place that has continued in 2017 and is being mainly driven by three factors:

·
Growing seaborne trade in iron ore, as major miners are increasingly concentrated in Australia and Brazil. Growing Brazil exports are especially significant for ton mile demand, as a typical roundtrip from Brazil to China may take up to three times as many days to complete as one from Australia to China. As a result, total iron ore ton-mile demand is estimated to have increased by 4.35% in 2016, which is more than the 3.6% increase in absolute traded volume.
·
Growing seaborne trade in coal, as mining capacity cuts in China led to increased imports.
·
The unusually low level of grain production seen in certain regions in 2016 is largely expected to reverse.

On March 21, 2017 the BDI reached a level of 1,200 and while the improvement in conditions may be transient it does seem like the lowest point of the cycle might be behind us.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Critical accounting policies are those that reflect significant judgments or uncertainties and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. We have described below what we believe are our most critical accounting policies, because they generally involve a comparatively higher degree of judgment in their application.

Impairment of long-lived assets

We review our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances, such as undiscounted projected operating cash flows, business plans to dispose a vessel earlier than the end of its useful life and prevailing market conditions, indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The volatile market conditions in the dry bulk market with decreased charter rates and decreased vessel market values are conditions we consider indicators of a potential impairment for its vessels.
14


We determine undiscounted projected operating cash flows, for each vessel and compare it to the vessel's carrying value. When the undiscounted projected operating cash flows expected to be generated by the use of the vessel and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount, we impair the carrying amount of the vessel. Measurement of the impairment loss is based on the fair value of the asset as determined by independent valuators. The undiscounted projected operating cash inflows are determined by considering the charter revenues from existing time charters for the fixed fleet days and an estimated daily time charter equivalent for the non-fixed days (based on a combination of one year charter rates estimate and the average of the trailing 10-year historical charter rates, excluding the peak years 2007-2008, available for each type of vessel) adjusted for commissions, expected off hires due to scheduled vessels' maintenance and estimated unexpected breakdown off hires. The undiscounted projected operating cash outflows are determined by applying various assumptions regarding vessel operating expenses and scheduled vessels' maintenance.

Our assessment concluded that no impairment loss should be recorded as of December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014.

Vessel depreciation

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the vessels, after considering the estimated salvage value. Up to September 30, 2015, management estimated the useful life of our vessels to be 30 years from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard. On October 1, 2015, we changed that estimate to 25 years. This change increased depreciation expense by $0.3 million (approximately $0.03 per share) for the year ended December 31, 2015. Salvage value is estimated by taking the cost of steel times the weight of the ship noted in lightweight ton, or LWT. Salvage values are periodically reviewed and revised to recognize changes in conditions, new regulations or other reasons. Revisions of salvage values affect the depreciable amount of the vessels and affects depreciation expense in the period of the revision and future periods. On October 1, 2015, we revised the salvage value of our vessels. This change increased depreciation expense by $0.2 million (approximately $0.02 per share) for the year ended December 31, 2015.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of income/(loss), stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. at December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp.
Notes To The Consolidated Financial Statements
(All amounts in footnotes in thousands of US Dollars, except for share and per share and warrants data, unless otherwise stated)

1.
Basis of Presentation and General Information:
Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. (the "Company" or "Seanergy") was formed under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands on January 4, 2008, with executive offices located in Athens, Greece. The Company provides global transportation solutions in the dry bulk shipping sector through its vessel-owning subsidiaries.
On January 8, 2016, the Company's common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis, following a December 22, 2015 approval from the Company's Board of Directors to reverse split the Company's common stock at a ratio of one-for-five. All share and per share amounts disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and notes give effect to this reverse stock split retroactively, for all periods presented.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company" or "Seanergy").
a.
Disposal of Vessels:
On March 11, 2014, the Company closed on its delivery and settlement agreement with its then remaining lender for the sale of its then four remaining vessels, to a nominee of the lender, in exchange for a nominal cash consideration and full satisfaction of the underlying loan facilities. The Company provided a corporate guarantee for these facilities. In exchange for the sale, approximately $145,597 of outstanding debt and accrued interest were discharged and the Company's guarantee was fully released.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recognized a gain from the sale of the four remaining vessels under the facility agreements with its then remaining lender of $85,563.
b.
Going Concern:
As of December 31, 2015, the Company reported a working capital deficit of $972 and its cash flow projections indicated that cash on hand and cash provided by operating activities might not be sufficient to cover the liquidity needs that became due in the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2016. Those conditions had raised substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern.
Principal conditions and events that would warrant consideration in the Company's evaluation of its ability to continue as a going concern are:

a)
Natixis loan facility payments of $7,000 due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued or $28,000 due by September 29, 2017, as per the March 7, 2017 settlement agreement (Note 15).
b)
Scheduled debt repayments of approximately $12,200 due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued, excluding the Natixis loan facility.
c)
Scheduled repayments of $3,500 due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued under the convertible notes issued to Jelco.
d)
Agreement dated March 28, 2017 for the acquisition of a secondhand Capesize vessel, at a gross purchase price of $32,650 that is expected to be delivered until the end of May 2017 (Note 15).
e)
Estimated interest expense payments of approximately $19,800 due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued under the Company's loan facilities and the convertible notes issued to Jelco.
f)
Restricted cash requirements and minimum liquidity requirements as per loan agreements.

Management evaluated the likelihood, magnitude and timing of these conditions and events in relation to its ability to meet its obligations. Other than the Natixis loan facility payments and the planned vessel acquisition, the remaining conditions and events which translate to relatively increased working capital requirements, can be covered by cash available and cash that is expected to be generated from operations, which management believes will be sufficient for this purpose. Furthermore, the Company believes that it is probable that it will successfully fully satisfy the Natixis settlement agreement by September 29, 2017, for the amount of $28,000. The Company also believes that it is probable that it will be successful in obtaining financing for the planned vessel acquisition for the amount of $32,650.
Management's plans, which have been fully implemented, to address these conditions and events are:

a)
On March 28, 2017, the Company entered into a $47,500 loan agreement with Jelco. Under the terms of this agreement, Jelco will make available this facility to the Company, to the extent that the Company is unable to secure third party financing to partially fund the Natixis settlement agreement and the balance purchase price of the vessel that the Company agreed to purchase on March 28, 2017 (Note 15).
b)
The Company has deferred the applicable limit reduction of $3,100 due in September 2017 to the note's maturity date in September 2020 under the convertible note issued to Jelco in September 2015 (Note 15).
F-7



Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp.
Notes To The Consolidated Financial Statements
(All amounts in footnotes in thousands of US Dollars, except for share and per share and warrants data, unless otherwise stated)
c)
The Company has raised net proceeds of approximately $1,873 under its public at-the-market offering as of April 3, 2017 (Note 15).
d)
Subsequent to year end, the Company has entered into agreements with some of its senior lenders for the waiver and deferral of the application date of certain major financial covenants (Note 15).

Taking into consideration the mitigating effects of the Company's fully implemented plans and the Company's projections of cash to be provided by its operating activities for the period up to one year after the date that the financial statements are issued, the relevant conditions and events that raised substantial doubt were resolved and the substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is alleviated.

Significant Accounting Policies:
(a)
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and include the accounts and operating results of Seanergy and its wholly-owned subsidiaries where Seanergy has control. Control is presumed to exist when Seanergy through direct or indirect ownership retains the majority of voting interest. In addition, Seanergy evaluates its relationships with other entities to identify whether they are variable interest entities and to assess whether it is the primary beneficiary of such entities. If the determination is made that the Company is the primary beneficiary, then that entity is included in the consolidated financial statements. The Company deconsolidates a subsidiary or derecognizes a group of assets when the Company no longer controls the subsidiary or group of assets, and a gain or loss is recognized. When the Company does not have a controlling interest in an entity, but exerts a significant influence over the entity, the Company applies the equity method of accounting. All significant intercompany balances and transactions and any intercompany profit or loss on assets remaining with the Group have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp.
Notes To The Consolidated Financial Statements
(All amounts in footnotes in thousands of US Dollars, except for share and per share and warrants data, unless otherwise stated)
A parent company deconsolidates a subsidiary or derecognizes a group of assets when that parent company no longer controls the subsidiary or group of assets specified in ASC 810-10-40-3A. When control is lost, the parent-subsidiary relationship no longer exists and the parent derecognizes the assets and liabilities of the qualifying subsidiary or group of assets. The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") concluded that the loss of control and the related deconsolidation of a subsidiary or derecognition of a group of assets specified in ASC 810-10-40-3A is a significant economic event that changes the nature of the investment held in the subsidiary or group of assets. Based on this consideration, a gain or loss is recognized upon the deconsolidation of a subsidiary or derecognition of a group of assets.
(b)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates include evaluation of relationships with other entities to identify whether they are variable interest entities, determination of vessel useful lives, allocation of purchase price in a business combination, determination of vessels impairment and determination of goodwill impairment.
(c)
Foreign Currency Translation
Seanergy's functional currency is the United States dollar since the Company's vessels operate in international shipping markets and therefore primarily transact business in US Dollars. The Company's books of accounts are maintained in US Dollars. Transactions involving other currencies are translated into the United States dollar using exchange rates, which are in effect at the time of the transaction. At the balance sheet dates, monetary assets and liabilities, which are denominated in other currencies, are translated to United States dollars at the foreign exchange rate prevailing at year-end. Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency translation are reflected in the consolidated statement of income/(loss).
(d)
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents, consisting mostly of deposits, with high credit qualified financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of the financial institutions in which it places its deposits. The Company limits its credit risk with accounts receivable by performing ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition.
(e)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Seanergy considers time deposits and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
(f)
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash is excluded from cash and cash equivalents. Restricted cash represents minimum cash deposits or cash collateral deposits required to be maintained with certain banks under the Company's borrowing arrangements or in relation to bank guarantees issued on behalf of the Company, which are legally restricted as to withdrawal or use. In the event that the obligation relating to such deposits is expected to be terminated within the next twelve months, these deposits are classified as current assets; otherwise they are classified as non-current assets.
(g)
Accounts Receivable Trade, Net
Accounts receivable trade, net at each balance sheet date, includes receivables from charterers for hire, freight and demurrage billings, net of a provision for doubtful accounts. At each balance sheet date, all potentially uncollectible accounts are assessed individually for purposes of determining the appropriate provision for doubtful accounts. The provision for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2016 and 2015 amounted to $43 and $43, respectively.
(h)
Inventories
Inventories consist of lubricants and bunkers which are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined by the first in, first out method.

(i)
Insurance Claims
The Company records insurance claim recoveries for insured losses incurred on damage to fixed assets and for insured crew medical expenses and for legal fees covered by directors' and officers' liability insurance. Insurance claim recoveries are recorded, net of any deductible amounts, at the time the Company's fixed assets suffer insured damages or when crew medical expenses are incurred, recovery is probable under the related insurance policies, the claim is not subject to litigation and the Company can make an estimate of the amount to be reimbursed. The classification of the insurance claims into current and non-current assets is based on management's expectations as to their collection dates.
(j)
Vessels
Vessels acquired as a part of a business combination are recorded at fair market value on the date of acquisition. Vessels acquired as asset acquisitions are stated at historical cost, which consists of the contract price less discounts, plus any material expenses incurred upon acquisition (delivery expenses and other expenditures to prepare for the vessel's initial voyage). Vessels acquired from entities under common control are recorded at historical cost. Subsequent expenditures for conversions and major improvements are capitalized, when they appreciably extend the life, increase the earning capacity or improve the efficiency or safety of the vessels. Expenditures for routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.
(k)
Vessel Depreciation
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the vessels, after considering the estimated salvage value. Up to September 30, 2015, management estimated the useful life of the Company's vessels to be 30 years from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard. On October 1, 2015, the Company changed that estimate to 25 years. This change increased depreciation expense by $289 (approximately $0.03 per share) for the year ended December 31, 2015. Salvage value is estimated by the Company by taking the cost of steel times the weight of the ship noted in lightweight ton ("LWT"). Salvage values are periodically reviewed and revised to recognize changes in conditions, new regulations or other reasons. Revisions of salvage values affect the depreciable amount of the vessels and affects depreciation expense in the period of the revision and future periods. On October 1, 2015, the Company revised the salvage value of its vessels. This change increased depreciation expense by $235 (approximately $0.02 per share) for the year ended December 31, 2015.
(l)
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets (Vessels)
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances, such as undiscounted projected operating cash flows, business plans to dispose a vessel earlier than the end of its useful life and prevailing market conditions, indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The volatile market conditions in the dry bulk market with decreased charter rates and decreased vessel market values are conditions that the Company considers indicators of a potential impairment for its vessels.
The Company determines undiscounted projected operating cash flows, for each vessel and compares it to the vessel's carrying value. When the undiscounted projected operating cash flows expected to be generated by the use of the vessel and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount, the Company impairs the carrying amount of the vessel. Measurement of the impairment loss is based on the fair value of the asset as determined by independent valuators. The undiscounted projected operating cash inflows are determined by considering the charter revenues from existing time charters for the fixed fleet days and an estimated daily time charter equivalent for the non-fixed days (based on a combination of one year charter rates estimate and the average of the trailing 10-year historical charter rates, excluding the peak years 2007-2008, available for each type of vessel) adjusted for commissions, expected off hires due to scheduled vessels' maintenance and estimated unexpected breakdown off hires. The undiscounted projected operating cash outflows are determined by applying various assumptions regarding vessel operating expenses and scheduled vessels' maintenance.
The Company's assessment concluded that no impairment loss should be recorded as of December 31, 2016.
(m)
Dry-Docking and Special Survey Costs
The Company follows the deferral method of accounting for dry-docking costs and special survey costs whereby actual costs incurred are deferred and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period through the expected date of the next dry-docking which is scheduled to become due in 2 to 3 years. Dry-docking costs which are not fully amortized by the next dry-docking period are expensed. In 2015, the Company changed the presentation of dry-docking and special survey costs on its consolidated statement of cash flows. Payments for dry-docking, shown as an adjustment to reconcile net income / (loss) to net cash provided by / (used in) operating activities was eliminated, and a new line "Deferred charges" under Changes in operating assets and liabilities was added to show gross additions for dry-docking and special survey costs.

(n)
Commitments and Contingencies
Liabilities for loss contingencies, arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties, environmental and remediation obligations and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.
(o)
Revenue Recognition
Voyage revenues are generated from time charters, bareboat charters and voyage charters. A time charter is a contract for the use of a vessel for a specific period of time and a specified daily charter hire rate, which is generally payable in advance. Some of the time charters also include profit sharing provisions, under which additional revenue can be realized in the event the spot rates are higher than the base rates under the time charters. A bareboat charter is a contract in which the vessel is provided to the charterer for a fixed period of time at a specified daily rate, which is generally payable in advance. Voyage charter agreements are charter hires, where a contract is made in the spot market for the use of a vessel for a specific voyage at a specified charter rate per ton of cargo.
Time charter revenue, including bareboat hire, is recorded over the term of the charter agreement as the service is provided and collection of the related revenue is reasonably assured. Under a time charter, revenue is adjusted for a vessel's off hire days due to major repairs, dry dockings or special or intermediate surveys. Voyage charter revenue is recognized on a pro-rata basis over the duration of the voyage, when a voyage agreement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, service is provided and the collection of the related revenue is reasonably assured. A voyage is deemed to commence upon signing the charter party or completion of previous voyage, whichever is later, and is deemed to end upon the completion of the discharge of the delivered cargo.
Deferred revenue represents cash received prior to the balance sheet date and is related to revenue applicable to periods after such date.
Charterers individually accounting for more than 10% of revenues during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 were:

Commissions
Commissions, which include address and brokerage commissions, are recognized in the same period as the respective charter revenues. Address commissions to third parties are included in Commissions. Brokerage commissions to third parties are included in Direct voyage expenses.
(q)
Vessel Voyage Expenses
Vessel voyage expenses primarily consist of port, canal, bunker expenses and brokerage commissions that are unique to a particular charter and are paid for by the charterer under time charter agreements and other non-specified voyage expenses.
(r)
Repairs and Maintenance
All repair and maintenance expenses, including major overhauling and underwater inspection expenses are expensed in the year incurred. Such costs are included in Vessel operating expenses.

(s)
Financing Costs
Underwriting, legal and other direct costs incurred with the issuance of long-term debt or to refinance existing debt are deferred and amortized to interest expense over the life of the related debt using the effective interest method. Unamortized fees relating to loans repaid are expensed in the period the repayment is made.
Following the early adoption of Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2015-03 "Interest – Imputation of Interest" to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs, effective December 31, 2015, the Company presents unamortized deferred financing costs as a reduction of long term debt in the accompanying balance sheets.
(t)
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized, when applicable, for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in general and administration expenses.
Maritime Capital Shipping (HK) Limited, the Company's management office in Hong Kong, is subject to Hong Kong profits tax at a rate of 16.5% on the estimated assessable profit for the year. The estimated profits tax for the year ended December 31, 2016 is $NIL.
Seanergy Management Corp. ("Seanergy Management"), the Company's management company, established in Greece under Greek Law 89/67 (as amended to date), is subject to an annual contribution calculated on the total amount of foreign exchange annually imported and converted to Euros. The contribution to be paid in 2017 by Seanergy Management for 2016 is estimated at $42.
Pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of the United States (the "Code"), U.S. source income from the international operations of ships is generally exempt from U.S. tax if the company operating the ships meets both of the following requirements: (a) the Company is organized in a foreign country that grants an equivalent exception to corporations organized in the United States and (b) either (i) more than 50% of the value of the Company's stock is owned, directly or indirectly, by individuals who are "residents" of the Company's country of organization or of another foreign country that grants an "equivalent exemption" to corporations organized in the United States (50% Ownership Test) or (ii) the Company's stock is "primarily and regularly traded on an established securities market" in its country of organization, in another country that grants an "equivalent exemption" to United States corporations, or in the United States (Publicly-Traded Test).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the regulations provide, in pertinent part, that each class of the Company's stock will not be considered to be "regularly traded" on an established securities market for any taxable year in which 50% or more of the vote and value of the outstanding shares of such class are owned, actually or constructively under specified stock attribution rules, on more than half the days during the taxable year by persons who each own 5% or more of the value of such class of the Company's outstanding stock ("5 Percent Override Rule").
The Company and each of its subsidiaries did not qualify for this statutory tax exemption for the 2016 taxable year, as the Company did not meet the 50% Ownership Test requirement for 2016, whereas it did qualify for this exemption the prior two years.
The Company estimates that since no more than the 50% of its shipping income will be treated as being United States source income, the effective tax rate is expected to be 2% and accordingly it anticipates that the impact on its results of operations will not be material. Based on its U.S. source Shipping Income for 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax of approximately $34, $NIL and $NIL.

Stock-based Compensation
Stock-based compensation represents vested and non-vested common stock granted to directors and employees for their services as well as to non-employees. For common stock granted to directors and employees, the Company calculates stock-based compensation expense for the award based on its fair value on the grant date and recognizes it on an accelerated basis over the vesting period. For common stock granted to non-employees, the Company calculates stock-based compensation expense for the award based on its fair value at each financial reporting date and recognizes the aggregate fair value on the measurement date (i.e., the vesting date).
(v)
Earnings (Losses) per Share
Basic earnings (losses) per common share are computed by dividing net income (loss) available to Seanergy's shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (losses) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e. those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share.
(w)
Segment Reporting
Seanergy reports financial information and evaluates its operations by total charter revenues and not by the length of vessel employment, customer, or type of charter. As a result, management, including the chief operating decision maker, reviews operating results solely by revenue per day and operating results of the fleet and thus, Seanergy has determined that it operates under one reportable segment. Furthermore, when Seanergy charters a vessel to a charterer, the charterer is free to trade the vessel worldwide and, as a result, disclosure of geographic information is impracticable.
(x)
Financial Instruments
Derivative instruments (including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) are recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value, with changes in the derivatives' fair value recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met.
(y)
Fair Value Measurements
The Company follows the provisions of ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures", which defines fair value and provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The guidance creates a fair value hierarchy of measurement and describes fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the market in which the reporting entity transacts. In accordance with the requirements of accounting guidance relating to Fair Value Measurements, the Company classifies and discloses its assets and liabilities carried at the fair value in one of the following categories:
·
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
·
Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data;
·
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
(z)
Troubled Debt Restructurings
A restructuring of a debt constitutes a troubled debt restructuring if the lender or creditor for economic or legal reasons related to the Company's financial difficulties grants a concession to the Company that it would not otherwise consider. Troubled debt that is fully satisfied by foreclosure, repossession, or other transfer of assets or by grant of equity securities by the Company is included in the term troubled debt restructuring and is accounted as such.
The Company, when issuing or otherwise granting an equity interest to a lender or creditor to settle fully a payable or debt, accounts for the equity interest granted at its fair value. The difference between the fair value of the equity interest granted and the carrying amount of the payable or debt settled is recognized as a gain on restructuring of payables or debt. Legal fees and other direct costs incurred in granting an equity interest to a creditor reduce the fair value of the equity interest issued. All other direct costs incurred in connection with a troubled debt restructuring are charged to expense as incurred.

Convertible Promissory Notes and related Beneficial Conversion Features
The convertible promissory notes are accounted in accordance with ASC 470-20 "Debt with Conversion and Other Options." The terms of each convertible promissory note included an embedded conversion feature which provided for a conversion at the option of the holder into shares of common stock at a predetermined rate.  The Company determined that the conversion features were beneficial conversion features ("BCF") pursuant to ASC 470-20. The Company considered the BCF guidance only after determining that the features did not need to be bifurcated under ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging" or separately accounted for under the cash conversion literature of ASC 470-20 "Debt, Debt with Conversion and Other Options".
Accounting for an embedded BCF in a convertible instrument requires that the BCF be recognized separately at issuance by allocating a portion of the proceeds equal to the intrinsic value of the BCF to additional paid-in capital, resulting in a discount on the convertible instrument. This discount is accreted from the date on which the BCF is first recognized through the stated maturity date of the convertible instrument using the effective yield method. If the intrinsic value of the BCF is greater than the proceeds allocated to the convertible instrument, the amount of the discount assigned to the BCF is limited to the amount of the proceeds allocated to the convertible instrument.
Recent accounting pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued the following amendments which clarifies the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09 and has the same effective date as the original standard: ASU No. 2016-20 Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers; ASU No. 2016-12 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients and ASU No. 2016-11 Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting issued in May 2016; ASU No. 2016-10 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing issued in April 2016; and ASU No. 2016-08 Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) issued in March 2016. On August 12, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which amends ASU No. 2014-09 (issued by the FASB on May 28, 2014 and which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. This standard is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2016. The new revenue standard may be applied using either of the following transition methods: (1) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (2) a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting the standard recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). The Company will adopt the standard in the first quarter of 2018 and preliminarily expects to use the modified retrospective method. Currently, the Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the standard and of reviewing historical contracts to quantify the impact that the adoption of the standard will have on specific performance obligations.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern, which provides guidance on management's responsibility in evaluating whether there is substantial doubt about a company's ability to continue as a going concern and on related required footnote disclosures. For each reporting period, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about a company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the financial statements are issued. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016 and for annual and interim reporting periods thereafter. The Company has adopted the provisions of ASU 2014-15, which did not impact its results of operations, financial position or cash flows (Note 1).
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory.  ASU 2015-11 is part of FASB Simplification Initiative. Current guidance requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. Market could be the replacement cost, net realizable value or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin. Under this Update, the entities will be required to measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. The amendments under the Update more closely align measurement of inventory in US GAAP with the measurement of inventory in IFRS.  For public entities, the amendments of this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments of this Update should be applied prospectively with early application permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
On January 1, 2016, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-02 Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis effective for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016 and interim periods within this fiscal year. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on the Company's results of operations, cash flows and net assets for any period.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation — Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting which is intended to simplify several areas of accounting for share-based compensation arrangements, including the income tax impact, classification on the statement of cash flows and forfeitures. This standard is effective for public entities with annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period.  The Company believes that the implementation of this update will not have any material impact on its financial statements and has not elected early adoption.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) – Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments which addresses the following eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice: Debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing; contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies (COLIs) (including bank-owned life insurance policies (BOLIs)); distributions received from equity method investees; beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 including interim periods within that reporting period, however early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this guidance and assessing its impact on its consolidated financial statements and notes disclosures.

Transactions with Related Parties:
a.
Convertible Promissory Notes:
On March 12, 2015 ("commitment date"), the Company issued an unsecured convertible promissory note of $4,000 to Jelco for general corporate purposes. The convertible note is repayable in ten consecutive semi-annual installments of $200, along with a balloon installment of $2,000 payable on the final maturity date, March 19, 2020. The note bears interest of Libor plus a margin with quarterly interest payments. At Jelco's option, the outstanding principal amount under the convertible note may be paid at any time in common shares at a conversion price of $0.90 per share. The Company has the right to defer up to three consecutive installments to the final maturity date.
The Company accounted for the issuance of the convertible promissory note in accordance with the beneficial conversion features ("BCF") guidance of ASC 470-20. The intrinsic value of the BCF was determined as the number of shares converted from the convertible note times the positive difference between the fair value of the stock on the commitment date and the contractual conversion price. Since the intrinsic value of the BCF at the commitment date was greater than the proceeds allocated to the convertible instrument, the amount of the discount assigned to the BCF was limited to the amount of the proceeds allocated to the convertible instrument. As of December 31, 2015, the Company had paid the first installment, with the entire payment recorded as a reduction to Additional paid-in capital. As of December 31, 2016, the Company has deferred the installments due for payment on March 19, 2016 and September 19, 2016 to the final maturity date. The gain or loss on the extinguishment of the convertible debt instrument is the difference between the carrying amount and the consideration allocated to the debt instrument. The partial extinguishment of debt as a result of the payment is shown as a gain on extinguishment and is included under interest and finance costs – related party.

On September 7, 2015 ("commitment date"), the Company issued an unsecured revolving convertible promissory note of up to $6,765 (the "Applicable Limit") to Jelco for general corporate purposes. The revolving convertible promissory note has a tenor of up to five years after the first drawdown and the Applicable Limit will be reduced by $1,000 each year after the second year following the first drawdown. The note bears interest of Libor plus a margin with quarterly interest payments. At Jelco's option, the Company's obligation to repay the principal amount under the revolving convertible note may be paid in common shares at a conversion price of $0.90 (as adjusted for the reverse stock split discussed in Note 1 above according to the terms of the convertible note) per share. The unsecured revolving convertible promissory note has been amended seven times, increasing the maximum principal amount available to be drawn to $21,165, while also increasing the amount by which the Applicable Limit will be reduced to $3,100. The Company has drawn down the entire $21,165 as of December 31, 2016.

The Company accounted for the issuance of the revolving convertible promissory note in accordance with the BCF guidance of ASC 470-20. The intrinsic value of the BCF was determined as the number of shares converted from the convertible note times the positive difference between the fair value of the stock on the commitment date and the contractual conversion price. Since the intrinsic value of the BCF at the commitment date was greater than the proceeds allocated to the convertible instrument, the amount of the discount assigned to the BCF was limited to the amount of the proceeds allocated to the convertible instrument.

Loan Agreememt:
On October 4, 2016, the Company entered into a $4,150 loan facility with Jelco to finance the initial deposits for the vessels M/V Lordship and the M/V Knightship. On November 17, 2016 and November 28, 2016, the Company entered into amendments to this facility, which, among other things, increased the aggregate amount that may be borrowed under the facility to up to $12,800 (to partially finance the remaining payment for the M/V Lordship and the M/V Knightship) and extended the maturity date to the earlier of (i) February 28, 2018 and (ii) the date falling 14 months from the final drawdown date. The maturity date may be extended, at the Company's option, to the earlier of (i) February 28, 2019 and (ii) the date falling 26 months from the final drawdown date. The facility bears interest at LIBOR plus a margin and is repayable in one bullet payment together with accrued interest thereon to the maturity date. The margin may be decreased by 2% upon a $5,000 prepayment by the Company or increased by 1.5% if the maturity date is extended in accordance with the terms of the facility. The facility further provides that the Company is required to prepay Jelco (i) in the event of a public offering by the Company of Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp's securities, an amount equal to 25 percent of the net offering proceeds and (ii) $1,900 upon the delivery of the M/V Knightship. Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. is the borrower under this facility. The facility is secured by second priority mortgages and general assignments covering earnings, insurances and requisition compensation on the M/V Lordship and the M/V Knightship, and the vessel owning subsidiaries that own the M/V Lordship and the M/V Knightship have provided a guarantee to Jelco for Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp.'s obligations under this facility. On December 14, 2016, following the delivery of M/V Knightship on December 13, 2016, the company prepaid Jelco $1,900 in accordance with the facility provisions. Additionally, on December 14, 2016, following the completion of the Company's public offering of 10,000,000 of its common shares on December 13, 2016 (Note 11), the company prepaid Jelco $5,000 in accordance with the facility provisions. The $5,000 comprised of (i) $3,430 mandatory prepayment as per the 25 percent of the then estimated net offering proceeds provision described above and (ii) $1,570 voluntary prepayment. As a result of the $5,000 prepayment, the margin was reduced by 2% to 7%. The balance sheet amount is shown net of deferred financing costs.
On March 28, 2017, the Company entered into a secured loan agreement with Jelco, or the Jelco Backstop Facility, for an amount of up to $47,500 (Note 15).

Secured credit facilities
On March 6, 2015, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Alpha Bank A.E., for a secured loan facility in an amount of $8,750. The loan was used to partially finance the acquisition of the M/V Leadership. On March 17, 2015, the Company drew down the $8,750.

Financial Instruments:
(a)
Significant Risks and Uncertainties, including Business and Credit Concentration
The Company places its temporary cash investments, consisting mostly of deposits, primarily with high credit qualified financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of those financial institutions that are considered in the Company's investment strategy. The Company limits its credit risk with accounts receivable by performing ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and generally does not require collateral for its accounts receivable and does not have any agreements to mitigate credit risk.
(b)
Interest Rate Risk
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair values of the financial instruments shown in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, represent management's best estimate of the amounts that would be received to sell those assets or that would be paid to transfer those liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at that date. Those fair value measurements maximize the use of observable inputs. However, in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date, the fair value measurement reflects the Company's own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Those judgments are developed by the Company based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

a.
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable trade, other current assets and trade accounts and other payables: the carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value approximates the fair market value for interest bearing cash classified as restricted cash, non-current.
b.
Long-term debt: The carrying value of long-term debt with variable interest rates approximates the fair market value as the long-term debt bears interest at floating interest rate. The fair value of fixed interest long-term debt is estimated using prevailing market rates as of the period end. The Company believes the terms of its fixed interest long-term debt are similar to those that could be procured as of December 31, 2016, and the carrying value approximates the fair market value. The fair value of the fixed interest long-term debt has been obtained through Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy which includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1.
