Skaugen delays bond payment
Oslo: Oslo listed I.M Skaugen, who operates a fleet of small and medium-sized LPG carriers, says that holders of its IMSK12 bond have agreed to extend its maturity from the end of February to June next year.
The majority of the bondholders who met in Oslo approved the board’s proposal to extend its maturity, said Skaugen in a statement.
“The company has created a platform for the future and a stronger competitive position both within its traditional petrochemicals markets and the developing small-scale LNG energy markets,” said the company who is also engaged in LPG transport in China.
Morits Skaugen, ceo, said with this extension of the maturity date, the company has “ensured sufficient working capital for the company to execute on its strategy and by this to visualise and create value for all stakeholders in the company.
“We are therefore encouraged by the support from the current IMSK12 bondholders,” he continued.
The company’s fourth quarter results will be announced 25 of February.
