(\u201cGlass Lewis\u201d) and Egan-Jones Proxy Services (\u201cEgan-Jones\u201d) overwhelmingly supported the Genco Board on all agenda items regarding Director nominations and shareholder proposals and recommend that Genco shareholders vote on the\u00a0<strong>WHITE<\/strong> proxy card \u201c<strong>FOR\u201d ALL<\/strong> of Genco\u2019s director nominees.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to supporting the current Genco Board, Glass Lewis and Egan-Jones also recommend that Genco shareholders vote \u201c<strong>WITHHOLD<\/strong>\u201d on all nominees of Diana Shipping Inc. (\u201cDiana\u201d), vote \u201c<strong>FOR<\/strong>\u201d the Shareholder Rights Plan that protects shareholders\u2019 interests and \u201c<strong>AGAINST<\/strong>\u201d Diana\u2019s shareholder proposals.<\/p>\n<p>Genco issued the following statement in response:<\/p>\n<p>We are pleased that Glass Lewis and Egan-Jones recognize the strength, independence and deep relevant expertise of Genco\u2019s Board of Directors, who are best positioned to lead the Company forward and continue creating shareholder value. Both firms also recognize the successful execution of our Comprehensive Value Strategy by Genco\u2019s Board, which has generated superior returns for shareholders.<\/p>\n<p>We encourage all Genco shareholders to follow the recommendations of these leading independent proxy advisory firms and vote \u201c<strong>FOR<\/strong>\u201d all of Genco\u2019s director nominees, \u201c<strong>WITHHOLD<\/strong>\u201d on Diana\u2019s handpicked nominees and \u201c<strong>AGAINST<\/strong>\u201d their shareholder proposals.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding Diana\u2019s tender offer:<sup>1<\/sup><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Glass Lewis noted, \u201cThe current bid at $24.80 per share, remains approximately $2 below the mean and median sell-side equity analyst NAV estimates and does not include a control premium. When considering the Company\u2019s recent operating momentum and stand-alone case, the board&#8217;s rejection appears defensible at this time\u2026. Genco\u2019s NAV position, recent operating performance, balance sheet profile, fleet investment record and capital return framework provide a basis for the board\u2019s view that the revised offer appears to still undervalue the Company.\u201d\n<\/li>\n<li>Egan-Jones noted, \u201cDiana\u2019s $24.80 per share bid sits below both analyst NAV estimates ($26.5\u2013$26.8) and even its own cited NAV, with no evident control premium despite seeking 100% ownership and a full-board change. The tender offer is contingent on selling vessels at \u201cfire-sale\u201d prices, effectively shifting embedded asset upside and future cycle benefits from Genco\u2019s shareholders to Diana and its partners. It would also prevent Genco&#8217;s shareholders from benefiting from a stronger dry bulk shipping market in the future, which is consistent with Genco&#8217;s current strategy.\u201d\n<\/li>\n<li>Egan-Jones noted, \u201cGenco has deliberately positioned itself to capitalize on an improving drybulk market through its conservative balance sheet, low cash breakeven structure, and CVS which prioritizes disciplined capital allocation and shareholder returns. Accepting a merger at this stage could force shareholders to relinquish exposure to a potentially favorable market cycle just as supply constraints and strengthening commodity trade flows are supporting higher vessel earnings.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Regarding Genco\u2019s Comprehensive Value Strategy and recent performance:<sup>1<\/sup><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Glass-Lewis noted, \u201cRecent operating performance supports the board\u2019s view that shareholders retain meaningful stand-alone upside. In the first quarter of 2026, Genco generated net income of $9.3 million and adjusted EBITDA of $36.2 million, achieved an average daily TCE rate of $19,346 and paid a dividend of $0.35 per share. For the second quarter of 2026, the Company states that estimated TCE has increased to approximately $23,900 per day and that its dividend formula is projected to produce a $0.70 per share dividend. These disclosures support the board\u2019s argument that the revised offer was made at a time when the Company was benefiting from improved drybulk market conditions and strengthening near-term earnings potential.\u201d\n<\/li>\n<li>Egan-Jones noted, \u201cSince launching the Comprehensive Value Strategy (&#8220;CVS&#8221;) in April 2021, Genco has delivered a 249% TSR, materially outperforming the drybulk sector while navigating multiple rate pullbacks and demonstrating an ability to compound value through the cycle. Genco&#8217;s superior returns over time weakens the case for a takeover. Usually, replacing a company&#8217;s board is justified when the company has consistently performed poorly or its strategy has failed, but neither appears to be true for Genco.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Regarding Genco\u2019s engagement with Diana:<sup>1<\/sup><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Glass Lewis noted, \u201cGenco&#8217;s process meaningfully weakens Diana\u2019s argument that the board is acting to entrench itself or prevent shareholders from accessing a value-maximizing transaction\u2026. The board evaluated the revised offer through a formal process, with external advice and financial analysis, rather than rejecting it without adequate consideration. The board has also not foreclosed further engagement, stating that it remains willing to meet again if Diana submits an offer that adequately compensates shareholders for the current full underlying value of Genco\u2019s assets, as measured by NAV, and provides an appropriate control premium to NAV.\u201d\n<\/li>\n<li>Egan-Jones noted, \u201cDiana has confirmed that it held discussions with Genco at a private event and through follow-up phone calls, and that Diana\u2019s CEO traveled to the United States to meet with Genco. However, Diana has argued that these interactions do not constitute \u201cengagement.\u201d In light of the fact that such discussions did occur between the parties, we do not find it reasonable to conclude that Genco failed to engage with Diana\u2026 Based on our engagement with both parties and their public disclosures, we note that Genco\u2019s board has consistently indicated a willingness to explore strategic alternatives with Diana, including a potential transaction in which Genco would acquire Diana using a mix of cash and Genco equity, and has rejected Diana\u2019s bids primarily on valuation and execution-risk grounds rather than out of any refusal to engage.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Regarding Diana\u2019s nominees:<sup>1<\/sup><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Glass Lewis noted, \u201cThe board appears to have taken reasonable steps in relation to the Dissident Nominees. In particular, Genco requested to interview Diana\u2019s candidates, while Diana\u2019s counsel instead focused on the possibility of a meeting to discuss the acquisition proposal. Although the acquisition proposal and the proxy contest are interconnected, they remain distinct matters. In this respect, Diana\u2019s reluctance to facilitate direct engagement between the board and the Dissident Nominees weakens its criticism of the board\u2019s review of the competing slate.\u201d\n<\/li>\n<li>Egan-Jones noted, \u201cDiana\u2019s slate is oriented toward transactions and restructurings and includes individuals with ties to Diana or value-destructive situations, heightening the risk that they would prioritize a sale over continuing Genco\u2019s proven CVS strategy for existing shareholders. Additionally, though Diana claims its nominees are independent from Diana, there certainly exists a conflict of interest in one Company nominating directors to the board of a competitor.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Regarding Genco\u2019s Board of Directors:<sup>1<\/sup><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Egan-Jones noted, \u201cGenco\u2019s nominees collectively bring deep drybulk, finance, and operational expertise and have overseen the design and execution of the CVS [Comprehensive Value Strategy], with independent governance structures (annual elections, special committee, external advisers) used to evaluate Diana\u2019s proposals.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Board encourages shareholders to vote the\u00a0<strong>WHITE<\/strong>\u00a0proxy card<strong>\u00a0\u201cFOR\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0the reelection of Genco\u2019s six highly qualified directors and according to the Board\u2019s other recommendations,\u00a0<strong>\u201cWITHHOLD\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0on Diana\u2019s nominees and\u00a0<strong>\u201cAGAINST\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0Diana\u2019s shareholder proposals. The Board recommends that Genco shareholders reject Diana\u2019s inadequate $24.80 tender offer by not tendering their shares.<\/p>\n<p>For additional information on how shareholders can protect their investment, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=e-GEKhYXmdruFJJZpOL4091tTXCFtgeJ2r_LIqBkza4r-4fAN5Ij2i1FASYCDTVei9YW7MpRPLXrizjA2LbmtqxJY1p7dfqMznCAQzyiP7TTK9TX2a23usFE1ya17b2gh98ZrP8QKiN411q4ExqxMw==\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">www.GencoDrivesSuperiorReturns.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any questions or require any assistance with voting your shares, please call or email Genco\u2019s proxy solicitor:<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">MacKenzie Partners, Inc.<br \/>Toll Free: 800-322-2885<br \/>Email:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=XBqo7VmgSSbE-QzcHYUCItHL5JOaTr5LpF50nNu9Y30Djx4ZsDmnIqKlW0vZOF_b1xYbCf9Bc8BCEdbYd_ECYYp_OD_lmsSneTpauuRNgeT1lKpQC42W2yKwDSf4HhF8\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">proxy@mackenziepartners.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Jefferies LLC is acting as financial advisor to Genco and Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer (US) LLP and Sidley Austin LLP are serving as legal counsel to Genco.
