PGS ASA: Bond Instrument Ratings and Updated Corporate Credit Ratings

PGS ASA: Bond Instrument Ratings and Updated Corporate Credit Ratings

March 6, 2023, Oslo, Norway: In conjunction with PGS ASA and/or its

subsidiaries' ("PGS") contemplated bond issue announced today (the "Bonds") PGS

is pleased to announce that the international credit rating agencies Moody's

Investors Services ("Moody's") and S&P Global Ratings ("S&P") have published

updated information regarding PGS' credit rating, as well as an instrument

rating for the Bonds. Reference is made to the respective releases from the

agencies.

Moody's has assigned a B3 rating to the Bonds and placed PGS ASA's Caa1

corporate family rating on review for upgrade. Based on the terms of the

transaction as proposed, Moody's would likely upgrade PGS' corporate family

rating to B3, should the transaction close successfully.

S&P has assigned a preliminary B rating to the Bonds and placed the CCC+ rating

on PGS on CreditWatch with positive implications, reflecting the possibility of

a one-notch upgrade once the refinancing is completed.
