CASTOR MARITIME INC.
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

On March 7, 2023, Castor Maritime Inc., (“Castor”) completed the previously announced spin-off of its Aframax/LR2 and Handysize tanker segments, which was effected by the distribution of 100% of the outstanding common shares of Toro Corp. (“Toro”) to Castor’s common shareholders (the “Distribution”). Holders of Castor’s common shares received one common share of Toro for every ten common shares of Castor held of record at the close of business on February 22, 2023. Toro is now an independent public company whose common shares trade on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “TORO”. Castor retained 140,000 1.00% Series A Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Convertible Preferred Shares of Toro, having a stated amount of $1,000 per share and a par value of $0.001 per share.
 
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is presented to illustrate the impact on Castor’s historical consolidated financial results of (i) the contribution by Castor to Toro of all the assets and liabilities (including Elektra Shipping Co., the holding company of the now sold tanker vessel M/T Wonder Arcturus) that comprise the Aframax/LR2 and Handysize tanker segments previously owned and operated by Castor, (ii) the Distribution and (iii) certain other transactions consummated in connection with the contribution and Distribution (collectively, the “Spin-Off”). The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 has been prepared giving effect to the Spin-Off as if the Spin-Off had occurred as of December 31, 2022. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2022 have been prepared giving effect to the Spin-Off as if the Spin-Off had occurred on January 1, 2022.
 
The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of comprehensive income reflect expense allocations made to Toro by Castor of its general and administrative expenses for items such as audit, legal and consultancy services, and other corporate expenses. The general and administrative expenses incurred by Castor have been allocated on a pro rata basis between Castor and Toro within ‘General and administrative expenses’ based on the proportion of the number of ownership days of Toro’s vessels to the total ownership days of Castor’s fleet.
 
The unaudited pro forma financial information has been derived from the historical annual consolidated financial statements of Castor and Toro, and reflects certain assumptions and adjustments, including the assumptions regarding allocation of general and administrative expenses, that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances and given the information available at this time. The unaudited pro forma financial statements are provided for illustrative and informational purposes only and are not intended to represent or be indicative of what Castor’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Spin-Off occurred on the dates indicated. The unaudited pro forma financial statements should not be considered representative of Castor’s future consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information presented below should be read in conjunction with Castor’s “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” and historical annual condensed consolidated financial statements and corresponding notes thereto included in its annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2022.
