#### Toro Corp. Declares Special Dividend of $0.90 Per Share
**Limassol, Cyprus, April 22, 2026 –** Toro Corp. (NASDAQ: TORO) ("Toro", or the "Company"), a global energy transportation provider, today announced that the Company's board of directors has declared a one-time, special dividend of $0.90 per common share, consisting of either cash or the Company's common shares. The dividend is payable to the Company's shareholders of record at the close of business on May 4, 2026 and is expected to be paid on June 5, 2026 (the "Dividend Payment Date").

The Company expects the dividend will be a taxable dividend to shareholders, regardless of whether received in the form of cash or common shares.

For shareholders that wish to receive the dividend all in cash, **no further action is required**. Alternatively, shareholders can elect to receive the dividend all in common shares. The number of common shares issued as a result of the dividend will be based on the 20-day volume weighted average price through April 21, 2026 ("20-day VWAP") of the Company's common shares, which the Company has determined is equal to $3.8821 per share. The market value of shares received on the Dividend Payment Date may be greater or less than the 20-day VWAP. The Company reserves the right to determine, at any time up to midnight on June 4, 2026, to pay the dividend entirely in cash, notwithstanding any elections it has received and without prior notice to shareholders.

An information letter and election form will be mailed to shareholders of record after the record date. The properly completed election form must be received by Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, LLC, the Company's transfer agent, prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on May 22, 2026. If the transfer agent does not receive a valid election form from a shareholder by that time, the dividend on such shareholder's shares will be paid in cash. Registered shareholders with questions regarding the dividend election may call Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, LLC at (888) 789-8409. Shareholders who hold their shares through a bank, broker or nominee and have questions regarding the dividend election should contact such bank, broker or nominee, who will also be responsible for distributing to them the information letter and election form and submitting the election form on their behalf.
