CMBTO: CMB.TECH special general meeting results

ANTWERP, Belgium, 8 October 2026, 15:00 CET - CMB.TECH NV ("CMBT", "CMB.TECH" or
"the company") (NYSE: CMBT, Euronext Brussels: CMBT and Euronext Oslo Børs:
CMBTO) announces that today the Special General Meeting of Shareholders (the
"General Meeting") has approved the proposed shareholder distribution of USD
0.64 per share, as conditionally announced on 27 August 2026. All other
resolutions proposed by CMB.TECH's Supervisory Board are also approved.

Approval of the Distribution

The General Meeting approved a total distribution of USD 0.64 per share,
consisting of (i) an intermediary dividend of USD 0.21 per share (subject to 30%
withholding tax, to the extent no exemption or reduction applies) and (ii) a
payment of USD 0.43 per share out of the available share premium (which is
exempt from withholding tax) (the "Distribution").

The Supervisory Board has determined the following timing for the payment of the
Distribution:

COUPON 48 dividend - COUPON 49 Share premium	Ex-dividend date	Record
date	Payment date
Euronext	                                15 October 2026	16 October 2026	 22
October 2026
NYSE	                                        16 October 2026	16 October 2026	 22
October 2026
OSE	                                        15 October 2026	16 October 2026	on
or about 27 October 2026
 
The New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") settles its trades on a T+1 basis, while
Euronext Brussels ("Euronext") and the Euronext Oslo Børs ("OSE") settle their
trades on a T+2 basis. As a result, there will be different ex-dividend dates
between the exchanges.

Due to the implementation of CSDR in Norway, the Distribution payable on common
shares that are registered in the VPS settlement system in order to be traded on
OSE is expected to be distributed to VPS shareholders on or about 27 October
2026. 

No withholding tax is due on the USD 0.43 per share distribution out of the
share premium reserve. The intermediary dividend of USD 0.21 per share is, in
its entirety, subject to 30% withholding tax to the extent that no exemption or
reduction applies. The company encourages you to contact your bank, broker,
nominee or other institution if you have any questions regarding the mechanics
and timing of having the Distribution attributable to your common shares
credited to your account.

Other resolutions

The General Meeting also approved the proposed shareholder distribution of
minimum USD 50 million and maximum USD 250 million out of the available share
premium.

All other resolutions were approved and can be found in the convening notice on
the CMB.TECH website.

The minutes of the General Meeting will be uploaded on the CMB.TECH website in
the "Investors" section under "General meetings".

statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe
harbour protections for forward-looking statements in order to encourage
companies to provide prospective information about their business.
Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives,
goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying assumptions and

The forward-looking statements in this press release are based upon various
assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions,
including without limitation, our management's examination of historical
operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from

made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant
uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and

In addition to these important factors, other important factors that, in our

expenses, including bunker prices, dry-docking and insurance costs, the market
for our vessels, availability of financing and refinancing, charter counterparty
performance, ability to obtain financing and comply with covenants in such
financing arrangements, changes in governmental rules and regulations or actions
taken by regulatory authorities, potential liability from pending or future
litigation, general domestic and international political conditions, potential
disruption of shipping routes due to accidents or political events, vessels
