Pricing of Additional Senior Notes Private Placement

Ithaca Energy plc (“Ithaca Energy”) is pleased to announce that its indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, Ithaca Energy (North Sea) plc (the “Issuer”) has priced a private placement of €155 million in aggregate principal amount of additional 5.500% senior notes due 2031 pursuant to Regulation S (“Additional Notes”). The Additional Notes have been sold at a purchase price of 100.000% of the aggregate principal amount. The gross proceeds from the placement of the Additional Notes will be used for general corporate purposes.

The Additional Notes will have the same terms and conditions as the existing €450 million aggregate principal amount of the Issuer’s Senior Notes due 2031.

Settlement of the Additional Notes is expected on 11 June 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.

Yaniv Friedman, Executive Chairman, commented “Ithaca Energy is pleased to announce the very successful pricing of a private placement of a further €155 million senior notes, as an extension to the Group’s existing €450 million senior notes, due 2031. This opportunistic bond “tap” again demonstrates the financial discipline of Ithaca Energy and its agility in responding to favourable market conditions. The additional raise, which is based on the same terms, further strengthens our financial position and flexibility, optimising our capital structure and providing additional liquidity to pursue growth opportunities.”
