Regulatory press release

Icelandair Group hf.: Financial Restructuring of Icelandair Group

As previously announced, Icelandair Group has been working with its advisors to strengthen the future capital structure of the Company following the adverse effects caused by COVID-19 to the international airline industry. The number of flights has reduced to less than 10% of the proposed schedule for this period of the year although Icelandair, with the support of the government, has continued to keep essential air routes open to passengers and cargo during recent weeks. There is still considerable uncertainty as to when global travel restrictions will be lifted and when demand for air travel will return to pre-COVID levels. Therefore, the Company is preparing to be able to withstand an extended period of minimal revenue. At the same time, preserving the flexibility and the ability to be able to respond quickly to changes in the market as soon as the market starts showing signs of recovery.

The focus of the Company is to improve the liquidity and equity position as well as securing its long-term profitability. To achieve this, the Company is preparing to issue new shares. The prerequisite for the share offering is to ensure the Company’s long-term competitiveness. As a part of that, successful negotiations with the unions are essential as well as the approval of a shareholders’ meeting. Discussions are also ongoing, or being initiated, with other key stakeholders, such as lenders, lessors and suppliers to strengthen the long-term competitiveness of the Company even further. Icelandair Group has also been in close contact with the Icelandic Government during the process.
