reports / limited reviews

15 July 2024: Magnora, a Norwegian renewable energy development company,
releases its financial report for the second quarter and half-year 2024.

Highlights from the quarter and subsequent events:

 * Magnora's legacy business ("Hermana Holding ASA") started trading on the main
   list of Oslo Stock Exchange with 70 percent of the shares assigned to Magnora
   shareholders - a dividend made possible by the profitable renewables
   business.
 * On 29 May 2024, the owners of Helios Nordic Energy AB ("Helios") agreed to
   sell all shares to the leading French infrastructure company Vinci.
 * On 11 July, Vinci Concessions received all shares in Helios, and the sellers
   received NOK 868 million upfront. The transaction includes a very significant
   five-year earnout component. As of 15 July 2024, accounts are being settled
   with Magnora's share estimated to be NOK 335 million not counting earnouts
 * Magnora received NOK 60.9 million in a milestone payment following the sale
   of Evolar AB in 2023 to market leader First Solar (US)
 * Globeleq became the preferred supplier for the largest stand-alone BESS
   project in Africa. The 153 MW / 612 MWh Red Sands was acquired from Magnora
   and progress triggered a milestone payment
 * Magnora's portfolio of renewable projects reached 9.4 GW despite revisions to
   make sure assets have grid access
 * Accelerating growth in South Africa where sales exceeded 350 MW in 11 months
   including a deal in June with independent power producer Red Rocket
 * In April, Magnora canceled 1,070,854 treasury shares, adding value to the
   65,751,825 remaining shares held by investors
 * Cash and cash equivalents of NOK 311 million and zero debt, that is before
   receiving proceeds from the sale of Helios.
 * Important milestone approaching this summer: Magnora to exceed NOK 1 billion
   in capital returned to shareholders, see also below.

On 4 July, the board resolved to pay an extraordinary dividend of NOK 4 per
share on top of the regular dividend of NOK 0.187 per share. The resolution is
set to take effect when payouts from the Helios sale have been received. Hence,
details on ex-date, payment date, and other key dates will be communicated in a
separate stock exchange notice later this week.

The second quarter report and presentation are attached to this announcement.
