Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement on 29 November 2024 by Norse Atlantic ASA (the "Company" or "Norse") regarding the placement of new shares for gross proceeds of NOK 96,392,880 (the "Private Placement"), equal to approx. USD 8.7 million, including that the Company would consider to carry out a subsequent offering of up to 82.8 million new shares (the "Subsequent Offering") at NOK 5 per share (the "Subscription Price"), equal to the subscription price in the Private Placement, depending on, among others, the prevailing market price and traded volume of the shares in the Company following completion of the Private Placement.
Following the announcement of the completion of the Private Placement (29 November 2024), the Company's shares have traded below the Subscription Price (NOK 5 per share) for the majority of the time (the VWAP per share has been NOK 3.9362 between 29 November 2024 and 20 March 2025) and at significant volumes (approx. 37.4 million shares have been traded on the Oslo Stock Exchange between 29 November 2024 and 20 March 2025). Accordingly, any existing shareholder wishing to reduce the dilutive effect of the Private Placement has had sufficient opportunity to purchase shares in the market at prices at or below the Subscription Price. Additionally, the closing price per share on the previous trading day (20 March 2025) on the Oslo Stock Exchange (i.e. the current market price per share) was NOK 4.735 (i.e. below the Subscription Price).
In light of this, the board of directors of the Company has today resolved not to proceed with the Subsequent Offering.
All due preparations were made by Norse for the Subsequent Offering, including that a prospectus registration document has been approved by the Financial Supervisory Authority of Norway (Nw. Finanstilsynet). The registration document is available on: https://corporate.flynorse.com/en-gb/investor-relations/report-presentations/.
