Imperial Petroleum Announces Management Estimate of Net Asset Value Per Share- $1.39

ATHENS, Greece, March 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Imperial Petroleum Inc. (Nasdaq: IMPP) (the “Company”), a ship-owning company providing petroleum products, crude oil, and drybulk seaborne transportation services, announced today that at March 27, 2023 the Company’s management, estimates Imperial Petroleum Inc’s Net Asset Value (“NAV”) to be $338.6 million, which is approximately 717% above its current market capitalization. The NAV which includes total outstanding cash of $142.2 million is increasing daily on account of the record net cashflow contributed by our tankers.

This NAV is based on recent charter free vessel values, current debt and cash as of March 27, 2023 which are assumptions and estimates that are susceptible to uncertainty and subject to circumstances and market conditions.
