On 6 October 2026, Wallenius Wilhelmensen ASA (“Wallenius Wilhelmsen” or the “Company”) announced the successful completion of a private placement, raising gross proceeds of approx. USD 300 million (equivalent to approximately NOK 2.9bn) through the allocation of 17.145 million new shares (the “Private Placement”). The offer price in the Private Placement was NOK 168 per share.

The net proceeds will, together with debt financing, be used to fully finance the total newbuild program communicated yesterday, and for general corporate purposes. The Private Placement will further allow the Company to maintain a robust balance sheet, providing flexibility to pursue attractive growth opportunities as they arise and provide shareholders with a competitive return over time through a combination of rising value for the Wallenius Wilhelmsen share and dividend payments.

ABG Sundal Collier appreciates the opportunity to have acted as Joint Bookrunner and congratulate Wallenius Wilhelmsen on its successful private placement.
