Kjetil Gjersdal, Chief Executive Officer of Odfjell Drilling AS commented:

"Odfjell Drilling continued to prove the value of its strategy during Q1 2026,
with strong financial results mainly driven by operational performance. Revenue
and EBITDA have increased and we have also elected to increase our quarterly
dividend, whilst continuing to deleverage. 

"These are fantastic results but, as we look ahead, our focus remains on
operations and more recently, to bringing Deepsea Atlantic back on hire safely
and in compliance with regulatory requirements. Investigations as to the cause
of the incident are ongoing but, together with our equipment manufacturers, we
will be sure to implement measures and learnings that are developed as a
result."
