ATHENS, Greece, June 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EuroHoldings Ltd (NASDAQ: EHLD) (“EuroHoldings” or the “Company”) an owner and operator of ocean-going vessels and provider of seaborne transportation, announced today that certain shareholders, all associated with the Pittas family (the “Sellers”), have entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Transaction”) and sold 51.04% of the Company’s outstanding common shares to Marla Investments Inc., a company affiliated with the Latsis family (the “Purchaser”). Members of the Pittas family retained approximately 7.6% ownership interest in the Company immediately after the closing of the Transaction. In connection with the Transaction, the Company has been asked by the Sellers and the Purchaser to facilitate the transfer of the sale and purchase of the shares by agreeing to (i) amend the Company Shareholders’ Rights Plan to permit the Purchaser to become the beneficial owner of more than 15% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares, (ii) to consider two persons suggested by the Purchaser to fill vacancies on the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board’), and (iii) to enter into a registration rights agreement with the Purchaser relating to the acquired shares (collectively the “Company Undertakings”). No shares of the Company were issued in the Transaction.

The consideration for the 1,437,697 shares sold was approximately $12.90 per share in cash. In addition, the Purchaser agreed to pay the Sellers certain amounts in cash payable quarterly in arrears, subject to the continued employment of the Company’s containerships M/V “Joanna” and M/V “Aegean Express” beyond their minimum employment period under their respective charter contracts.

In connection with the Transaction, two members of the Board, Messrs. Aristides P. Pittas and Dr. Anastasios (Tasos) Aslidis have resigned. Eurobulk Ltd, Eurochart S.A. and their affiliates will continue to provide executive, commercial and technical management services to the Company. The Company’s existing management team will remain in place following the Transaction.

The Company Undertakings have been unanimously approved by the Board, and recommended by its special committee of the Board comprised solely of disinterested directors. As a result of the actions by the Board, Messrs. George Margaronis and Christos Triantafillidis were appointed to fill the vacancies on the Board created by the resignation of Messrs. Pittas and Aslidis.

Seaborne Capital Advisors acted as exclusive financial advisor to the Company, Watson Farley & Williams LLP acted as legal counsel for the Purchaser, and Seward & Kissel LLP acted as legal counsel for the Company.

Aristides J. Pittas, Chairman, President and CEO of EuroHoldings commented: “Our strategy has always been focused on pursuing the best path forward to enhance shareholder value. We strongly believe that this Transaction represents a significant milestone in EuroHoldings’ evolution as it marks a new beginning with a highly reputable and successful shipping sponsor as a shareholder of the Company. Furthermore, members of the Pittas family retain ownership in the Company which demonstrates our conviction that this strategic decision is for the benefit of shareholders.”

George Margaronis, Vice President of Marla Investments Inc. commented: “With a presence in shipping of over 80 years, the Latsis family is excited that it has consummated its first transaction that relates to the U.S. public markets, to complement its other public and private investments in a variety of sectors and countries.  As a new director of the company, I personally look forward to working closely with the Company’s experienced management team and my fellow members of the board of directors.”
