Hunter Group ASA - Refinancing update
Oslo, 18 August 2020
Hunter Tankers AS (the "Company"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Hunter Group
ASA, is pleased to announce that it has exercised its call options pursuant to
the sale-and-leaseback agreements with SFL Corporation Ltd. and repurchased
Hunter Atla and Hunter Saga for a combined amount of approx. USD 117.8m (the
"Transaction"). Consequently, the two vessels are now in full ownership of the
Company. Concurrently with the Transaction, the Company has utilized approx. USD
100.4m of the loan facility with Danske Bank, DNB, Nordea and SEB announced on
18 June 2020.
The Transaction will reduce the Company's leverage, cost of capital and cash
breakeven levels. This is in line with the Company's previously communicated
capital allocation strategy.
