Main events

Early 2023, the Company signed a well based bareboat charter (the "BBC") for the Drillship "Deep Value Driller" with Saipem as Charterer, which commenced operation November 1, 2023.

April 14, 2025 the Company amended the BBC with Saipem (the "Amended BBC") for a period of 365 days from July 1, 2025 (the "Initial Period"), with an option for the Charterer within the first 6 months of the Initial Period to extend the Amended BBCwith an additional 365 days (the "Second Period").

The Initial Period will add in the range of USD 54-55 million in revenue backlog, assuming no idle period for the Drillship or other periods where reduced rates may apply as per the Amended BBC. In addition, Saipem has an option to purchase the Drillship for USD 300 million (the "Purchase Option"). For more information, please see the Company's announcement of March 7, 2025.

December 25, 2025 the Amended BBC was extended until 31 July 2026. Furthermore, the Company and the Charterer also agreed to an extension until February 16, 2026 for the purchase option. The option purchase price is USD 300 million, plus payment of the remaining hire for the Initial Period.

The Charterer has an option for a Second Period, which must be declared by February 16, 2026. If the option for the Second Period is exercised, the Charterer's option to purchase the Drillship, is also extended until December 31, 2026. For more information, please see the Company's announcement of December 29, 2025.

The rig left Ghana October 6, 2025 for an approximately 105-day (+ one optional well est. 90 days) contract in Indonesia, with commencement date 6 January. The Drillship has shown excellent operational performance 98,1% throughout 2025.

Total distribution of dividends in 2025 has been 2,65 NOK per share.

* The reclassification of share premium is due to the different exchange rates applied at the time of capital increases versus capital returns. While the share premium account has reached a zero balance in its legal denomination currency (NOK), a residual balance remained in the USD reporting currency. This amount has been reclassified to align the financial statements with the company's remaining legal capital.
