Panoro Energy ASA - Successful Placement of USD 150 Million Senior Secured Bond

Oslo, 27 November 2024 - Panoro Energy ASA ("Panoro" or the "Company") is

pleased to announce that it has successfully completed a 5-year senior secured

bond issue of USD 150 million with a coupon rate of 10.25 per cent. The bonds

will be issued at 99.20 per cent of nominal value. The bond issue attracted

strong interest from both international and Nordic investors and was

significantly oversubscribed. The net proceeds from the bond issue shall be

applied towards refinancing of existing debt and general corporate purposes.

Settlement of the bond issue is expected on or about 11 December 2024 (the

"Issue Date"), subject to customary conditions precedent. An application will be

made for listing of the bonds.

John Hamilton, CEO of Panoro, commented:

"As we have developed our high-quality asset base in recent years, consistently

replacing reserves and growing production to current levels of over 13,000 bopd,

the successful placing of a USD 150 million bond is an equally important

development of Panoro's capital structure. The bond issuance diversifies our

long-term capital base, adding a scalable instrument in support of our growth

strategy, while also reducing our borrowing interest rate. We will continue to

run the business with a modest net leverage profile, keeping the delivery of

material and sustainable returns for shareholders as our over-riding objective

through a clear and aligned distribution framework."

Arctic Securities and DNB Markets acted as Joint Bookrunners, and SpareBank 1

Markets acted as Co-Manager in the transaction. Advokatfirmaet Schjødt AS acted

as legal advisor to the Company and Advokatfirmaet Thommessen AS acted as legal

advisor to the Joint Bookrunners.
