•(1) This is the Top 20 Shareholder list as per 18 August 2023.
•(2) The total issued number of shares issued at end Q2 2023 was 41,367,783.
•(3) Thorkildsen Invest AS is a Company controlled by Thorkildsen family.
•(4) Chairman Kjetil Grønskag owns directly and indirectly 5,813,322 shares corresponding to 14.05%.
• Both the CPI and GDP growth in Romania is set to fall during 2023. RomReal is in a relatively strong financial position with zero external debt. The weakening macro fundamentals have already resulted in clearly slower sales in all the remaining projects, and only one small property is sold during second quarter 2023. Excluding one agreed delayed instalment, all the vendor financing schemes are presently developing according to agreement. To maintain a solid cash position even in a bearish scenario, certain infrastructure investments are frozen and more could follow, if deemed necessary.
