Goodtech ASA delivered improved profitability and solid operational performance in the second quarter of 2026.

Following a successful strategic refocusing and operational turnaround, the Board believes the Company holds capital in excess of what is required to support its asset-light, project-based business model. The Board of Goodtech ASA therefore intends to distribute approximately NOK 60 million of excess capital to shareholders through supplemental dividends and/or share buybacks during H2 2026. The exact structure and timing of the distribution will be communicated before the end of Q3 2026.

CEO Margrethe Hauge comments:

"Goodtech continues to demonstrate that its core business delivers improved profitability and solid operational performance. Our strong backlog and pipeline, together with a robust balance sheet, positions the Group well to continue supporting the industry's continuous need to improve their competitiveness through digital and sustainable solutions. At the same time, our strong financial position enables us to distribute excess capital to shareholders while maintaining the flexibility to invest in future growth

opportunities."
