- Ownership Change: TORM plc announces the completion of Hafnia's acquisition of shares from Oaktree, resulting in Oaktree and its affiliates dropping below the one-third ownership threshold, which alters the governance structure of the company.
- Board Adjustment: With Oaktree's reduced stake, Deputy Chairman David Weinstein will leave the Board but will continue as a Special Advisor, ensuring stability and continuity during this transitional phase for the company.
- Voting Rights Shift: Following the threshold date, TORM's voting rights structure changes, with the current 101,332,707 A-shares and one B-share becoming the new voting basis, impacting the company's decision-making process.
- Capital Structure Adjustment: As B and C shares are redeemed and canceled, TORM's share capital will be adjusted to USD 1,013,327.07, reflecting an optimization of governance structure and effective capital management.
