In light of the aforementioned developments, the Company may breach the financial covenants in its financing agreements. The Company is currently in negotiations with the provider of its revolving credit facility and will enter into discussions with certain existing holders of the Bonds. The Company aims to find a long-term solution with the support of the holders of the Bonds, the provider of the revolving credit facility and the majority owner.

The Company’s publication of its audited consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2023 (the "Financial Statements") which were to be published and made available no later than 30 April 2024 pursuant to the terms and conditions of its Bonds, will be delayed.

The Financial Statements are expected to be published after a contemplated written procedure for the Bonds in respect of waiving and/or amending the applicable financial covenants which needs to be approved by the requisite majority of holders of the Bonds.

This is information which Jøtul AS is obliged to make public pursuant to the EU Market Abuse Regulation. The information was submitted for publication, through the agency of the contact person set out above, at 22:00 CEST on 30 April 2024.
