EMGS to launch second partial bond buy-back

The board of directors of Electromagnetic Geoservices ASA ("EMGS" or the "Company") has resolved to initiate a second voluntary, partial buy-back of bonds under the Company's outstanding convertible bond issue.

The second voluntary bond buy-back follows the successful voluntary bond buy-back completed by the Company in July 2021, where the Company bought back and subsequently discharged bonds with a total nominal value of USD 4,000,000 (equal to 12.31 per cent of the Outstanding Bonds, as defined in the bond agreement, at the date of launch of the first voluntary buy-back offer).

Under the second voluntary bond buy-back, the Company intends to offer to buy-back outstanding bonds with an aggregate nominal value of up to USD 4,000,000 (equal to 14.03 per cent of the Outstanding Bonds, as defined in the bond agreement, at the date hereof). EMGS will offer to buy back the bonds at 75 per cent of par value.

Bondholders representing the majority of the outstanding bonds have already indicated that they support the buy-back and that they intend to participate.

The offer price has been determined based on a fair market value assessment made by an independent third-party.

The Company expects to formally launch the buy-back offer as soon as possible, and complete the process no later than 31 December 2021.

Contact Anders Eimstad, CFO, +47 948 25 836 About EMGS EMGS, the marine EM market leader, uses its proprietary electromagnetic (EM) technology to support oil and gas companies in their search for offshore hydrocarbons. EMGS supports each stage in the workflow, from survey design and data acquisition to processing and interpretation. The Company's services enable the integration of EM data with seismic and other geophysical and geological information to give explorationists a clearer and more complete understanding of the subsurface. This improves exploration efficiency and reduces risks and the finding costs per barrel. CSEM technology can also be used to detect the presence of marine mineral deposits (primarily Seabed Massive Sulphides) and EMGS believes that the technology can also be used to estimate the mineral content of such deposits. The Company is undertaking early-stage initiatives to position itself in this future market.
