Awilco Drilling PLC reports a net profit of USD 64.8 million for the first half of 2024. On 30 June 2024, the Company had a cash balance of USD 57.4 million.
The end date for the exercise period of the issued warrants was set to 27 September 2024.
The Company has commenced a share capital reduction process in order to have sufficient distributable reserves to prepare for a capital payout. The process is expected to take approximately three months. In parallel and as always, the Company will be exploring alternative investments to enhance shareholders value. Investment of capital into new business opportunities will need to have potential for substantial increase of shareholders' value to be preferred over capital payout.
