Prosafe SE: Third quarter 2020 results

(Figures in brackets refer to the corresponding period of 2019)

Reported EBITDA for the third quarter was negative by USD 1.2 million (USD 26.3

million positive), reflecting low activity. The company successfully protected

its order book through the Covid-19 pandemic. Liquidity reserve per end of

quarter is USD 164.5 million. The process with lenders for a sustainable

financial solution remains constructive. Although it is too early to say what a

final solution may look like, it is anticipated that there will be a significant

equalization of debt which is likely to result in minimal or no recovery for

current shareholders.

Jesper K. Andresen, Prosafe's CEO says, "We are pleased that our organisation

has been able to adapt and ensure stability and safety through a very demanding

period. Importantly, we have been able to protect our order backlog through

Covid-19 by agreeing with clients to move contracts from 2020 to 2021. In

addition, we are now observing a slight increase in prospects and tendering

activity, especially in the North Sea, for 2021 and 2022. We firmly believe that

we are well positioned to ensure our share of this new work."
