EMGS to launch its third partial bond buy-back

The board of directors of Electromagnetic Geoservices ASA ("EMGS" or the "Company") has resolved to initiate a third voluntary, partial buy-back of bonds under the Company's outstanding convertible bond issue Elec ASA 18/25 FRN USD FLOOR STEP C CONV (“EMGS03”).

The third voluntary bond buy-back follows; (i) the first 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 approx. USD 4,000,000 (equal to 12.3 per cent of the Outstanding Bonds (as defined in the bond agreement) at the date of launch of the first offer) and; (ii) the second voluntary bond buy-back, completed by the Company in December 2021, where the Company bought back and subsequently discharged bonds with a total nominal value of approx. USD 4,000,000 (equal to 14.0 per cent of the Outstanding Bonds at the date of launch of the second offer).

Following completion of the first and the second voluntary bond buy-backs and as of the date of this release, a total of USD 24,501,100 remains outstanding under EMGS03.

Under the third voluntary bond buy-back, the Company intends to offer to buy-back Outstanding Bonds with an aggregate principal amount of up to USD 5,000,000 (subject to upsizing). EMGS will offer to buy back the bonds at 86.5 per cent of par value (a discount to par value of 13.5 per cent).

Based on preliminary discussions, only one of the largest bondholders has indicated its interest to participate.

The Company expects to formally launch and complete the offer within 31 December 2022.

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.
