ANTWERP, Belgium, 15 April 2024 – Euronav NV (NYSE: EURN & Euronext: EURN) (“Euronav” or the “Company”) announces that the Company has purchased on the NYSE and on Euronext Brussels a total of 263,771 of its own shares.

Following these transactions, the Company now owns 25,807,878 shares (11.73% of the total outstanding share count).

Further details on these transactions are as follows:

The Supervisory Board has authorised the Management Board to repurchase up to 10 million shares at a maximum purchase price per share of USD 17.86* with a term from 21 March 2024 to 28 June 2024. The company will therefore retain the option to repurchase shares going forward and will monitor market conditions before deciding whether to proceed with share repurchases, taking into account various factors, including regulatory or legal requirements and other corporate considerations.

The Supervisory Board and Management Board believe that this affirmative action creates long-term value for all stakeholders given the significant disconnect between equity value and net asset value at present and reflects the strength of Euronav’s balance sheet and the confidence of Supervisory Board and Management Board in the long-term value in the Company’s shares.

*It should be noted that any dividend or other distribution paid should be deducted from this amount as of the ex-dividend date.
