Norwegian Air Shuttle ASA (NAS) - Agreement to purchase one Boeing 737-800 aircraft

03 Jun 2026 08:00 CEST

Norwegian can today announce that it has entered into an agreement to purchase
one Boeing 737-800 aircraft that is currently on lease to the airline.

This transaction represents another step in securing the company’s future fleet,
enhancing financial flexibility, and increasing asset ownership to support
long-term operational and strategic growth, in addition to reduced overall
ownership cost.

The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026 and is
subject to customary closing conditions. Norwegian has secured long-term
financing for this aircraft purchase.

On completion of the transaction, Norwegian expects to record a non-recurring
gain of approximately NOK 85 million. This gain reflects the pricing the company
has been able to achieve for the aircraft and the corresponding reduction of
existing lease liabilities. Additionally, the transaction is expected to
generate recurring cost savings net of financing costs of approximately NOK 10
million per year.

This transaction follows the company’s earlier purchase of 13 Boeing 737-800
aircraft in 2025. Norwegian has completed the long-term financing for those
transactions on attractive financing terms.
