Kats, Netherlands - March 26, 2026 - The Kingfish Company N.V. (Euronext Growth
Oslo: KING) (the "Company" or "Kingfish") announces that it continues to be
engaged in discussions with its largest lender, convertible bondholders, certain
existing shareholders and potential investors regarding the Company's capital
structure and financing agreements. These discussions are taking place with the
objective of addressing an expected covenant breach and strengthening the
Company's financial position, as communicated in the stock exchange announcement
on January 20, 2026.

As part of this process, the Company is evaluating a range of potential
solutions, which may include new equity, junior debt financing and/or other
restructuring measures. In this context, the Company is considering raising
approximately EUR10 million to EUR15 million in additional funding. To support these
efforts, the Company has engaged ABG Sundal Collier ASA as financial adviser.
Any such transaction, if implemented, is expected to result in changes to the
Company's capital structure and may be significantly dilutive to existing
shareholders.

The Company notes that discussions are progressing constructively, and it
believes that a viable solution can be achieved. The Company also emphasises
that its operations continue as normal. The ongoing financing and restructuring
discussions are not expected to impact day-to-day activities, production,
suppliers or customer relationships, and the Company remains focused on
executing its operational plan.

The Company will provide further updates as appropriate.
