The Net Asset Value ("NAV") of Aker ASA and holding companies ("Aker") was NOK
58.2 billion at the end of the fourth quarter 2024, after dividends paid,
compared to NOK 57.0 billion at the end of the third quarter. Aker distributed a
dividend of NOK 2.6 billion in the quarter. Aker's Board of Directors ("the
Board") proposes to pay a cash dividend of NOK 26.50 per share for the fiscal
year 2024 and, in-line with previous years' practice, will propose an
authorization to pay an additional cash dividend in the second half of 2025.

"Overall, 2024 was an active year for Aker's portfolio companies. Alongside
strong project execution, several significant transactions were completed,
resulting in more than NOK 32 billion in dividends being distributed by the
portfolio companies to Aker and our fellow shareholders. This high level of
activity aligns with our strategy of maintaining a streamlined and focused
portfolio, with solid potential for increased upstream cash moving forward,"
said Øyvind Eriksen, President and CEO of Aker ASA.

"As we continue through 2025, we face a complex macroeconomic environment marked
by political and economic uncertainties beyond our control. I am pleased to see
that core segments in our portfolio are performing well, and new opportunities
are developed with a disciplined approach. By leveraging our strengths,
including lasting partnerships with global champions, transactional
capabilities, financial robustness, and flexibility to seize opportunities, I am
confident in Aker's ability to continue delivering shareholder value," said
Eriksen.
