• Dividend Reinvestment Plan Renewed

  The company is renewing its Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP) for up to 10,000,000 common shares, with a maximum aggregate offering price of approximately $98.95 million. This plan allows existing shareholders to reinvest dividends and make optional cash investments, and new investors to make initial investments.

• At-The-Market (ATM) Program Continued

  The existing At-The-Market (ATM) program, which allows for the sale of common shares with aggregate sales proceeds of up to $100.0 million, is being renewed and continued under an amended agreement.

• Substantial Potential Dilution

  The combined potential issuance from both the DRIP and ATM programs could lead to a significant increase in outstanding shares, representing approximately 14% dilution if all authorized shares were issued.

• Capital for General Corporate Purposes

  Proceeds from these offerings are intended for working capital, general corporate purposes, asset purchases, debt repayment, and strategic transactions, providing financial flexibility following a reported net loss in the prior fiscal year.

SFL Corp Ltd. has filed a prospectus supplement to renew and continue its Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP) and At-The-Market (ATM) offering program. This filing, made under a new F-3ASR shelf registration, authorizes the potential issuance of up to 10,000,000 common shares through the DRIP, valued at approximately $98.95 million, and renews the ATM program for up to an additional $100 million. The combined potential capital raise of nearly $199 million represents a substantial amount relative to the company's market capitalization. While these programs provide crucial financial flexibility for working capital, debt repayment, and strategic transactions, especially following the recently reported net loss for fiscal year 2025, the potential for significant share dilution (approximately 14% if all shares were issued) creates an overhang for investors.
