(NASDAQ: ALCE) (“Alternus” or the “Company”) announced today that it retired approximately $10 million of debt, consisting of a senior note and accrued interest and expenses. This deleveraging frees up borrowing capacity that the Company intends to use to fund accelerated growth. The retirement of this note, originally issued by majority stockholder Alternus Energy Group plc, was funded by the issuance of Alternus common stock to the noteholder Greenlight Asset Management GP S.a.r.l. (“Greenlight”) (formerly known as AVG Group). Greenlight is a leading Nordic asset manager focused on sustainable investing. Alternus believes that Greenlight will be a valuable strategic investor due to their deep expertise and strong reputation in renewable energy investing. Vincent Browne, CEO of Alternus, commented, “We are very pleased with this vote of confidence by Greenlight in our business and growth plans. The cash otherwise used to repay this note can now be better directed towards our many growth opportunities we see as we shift our focus to North America. The region has a multitude of developing projects for sale, plenty of greenfield opportunities, storage opportunities are ramping quickly, and IRA incentives for renewable energy are a strong tailwind.” Karl Andersen, Founder and CEO of Greenlight, commented: “Our strategic investment in Alternus underscores our confidence in the market opportunities for Alternus and their ability to execute. As an owner of Alternus, we are maximizing our own effort to fulfill our mission of enabling the development of clean sustainable energy sources. This deal is a win-win-win for us, Alternus, and our planet.” More details on the transaction can be found in the Form 8-K filed today with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
