Friday, May 9, 2025 Dear Shareholders and Investors, The first months of 2025 since the end of 2024 has been the most active period in Nordic American (NAT) for several years. The path forward is up. Dividend is a priority. As per previous communication to the market, we are in the process of acquiring two or three vessels and to sell a few ships. We have purchased two vessels, declared purchase options on two of our lease financed ships and subsequently refinanced them. As a part of our total plan, two of our early built vessels have been sold. Below is pertinent information, reflecting the active period since the start of 2025: January 22nd, 2025, NAT announced that it
Friday, March 14, 2025 Dear Shareholders and Investors, As previously communicated, we recently acquired a Sungdong (South-Korea) built suezmax tanker from a first-class owner. The vessel is expected to be delivered to NAT at the end of this month (March 2025). Sungdong was controlled by the Samsung group at the time. The vessel has been owned by the same company since it was built in 2016. We have now agreed to acquire a sister vessel, from the same owner, also built in 2016 at the same South-Korean yard. This vessel will be delivered to NAT within April this year. The price to NAT is in the mid/high USD 60s. Both vessels are fully financed and will provide additional earnings
Friday, February 28, 2025 Dear Shareholders and Investors, Ninety day periods offer a short-term snapshot of a company, but it is more instructive to look at the bigger, longer-term picture. The direction of NAT is unquestionably upwards as we create room for profitable growth. Whatever we do, dividends remain our primary objective. As part of our plan to buy a few ships and sell a few ships, we have since the end of 2024 agreed to purchase one 2016-built suezmax tanker from a first class owner. The vessel will be delivered to NAT during the second quarter of this year. The price is in the mid/high 60's. The new unit will provide additional earnings and dividend capacity to NAT

Wednesday, January 22, 2025 Dear Shareholders and Investors, In the recent past, NAT has carried through several transactions, reflecting a very active period. NAT has declared the purchase option for a 2018-built Suezmax tanker on favorable terms from a close financing partner. Furthermore, we have also sold a 2003-built vessel to a UK based owner.

We wish to assure shareholders that dividend always will be a priority.
