TECO 2030 ASA – Bankruptcy Petition Filed Against Subsidiary 14.11.2024 17:47:47 CET | TECO 2030 ASA | Inside information Lysaker, Norway – 14 November 2024: A bankruptcy petition has been filed against TECO 2030 Innovation Center AS ("Innovation Center"), a wholly owned subsidiary of TECO 2030 ASA (the "Company"), by the Norwegian Tax Authority. The petition has been submitted to the Midtre Hålogaland District Court, with a hearing scheduled for 5 December 2024.
The potential bankruptcy of the Innovation Center could have significant repercussions for the Company, particularly due to a parent company guarantee it has provided, which is capped at NOK 10 million, covering rental payments under the Innovation Center's property lease agreement in Narvik. A claim has already been made against the Company by the beneficiary of this guarantee, prompting the Company to engage in discussions to address the situation. Should negotiations fail to yield a satisfactory resolution with the guarantee beneficiary, the Company may face its own bankruptcy proceedings.
The Company is committed to keeping stakeholders informed and will provide further updates as more information becomes available. In the meantime, it will continue to pursue an amicable solution with all parties involved.
