• The largest shipping listing in the last 20 years

• Market capitalisation of approximately NOK 17.6 billion

Oslo – 17 March 2026 – Euronext today congratulates Capital Tankers Corp. (ticker: CAPT), a newly established tanker-owning company, on its listing on Euronext Growth Oslo. The listing follows the successful completion of a NOK 4.8 billion private placement, equal to approximately USD 500 million, and it is the largest western shipping listing in the last two decades. This is the 11^th listing on Euronext in 2026 and the sixth international listing this year. 

Capital Tankers operates a modern fleet of 30 fuel‑efficient crude tankers, of which nine vessels are currently in operation and 21 are under construction. The company is incorporated in the Republic of the Marshall Islands and is focused on building a leading platform within the global crude tanker segment. 

Capital Tankers was listed through the admission to trading of 131,050,000 issued and outstanding common shares, with the potential to increase to 135,700,000 shares should the Greenshoe Option be exercised in full. 

The private placement was significantly oversubscribed and raised NOK 4.8 billion including overallotment, after an upsizing from initial terms due to strong investor demand. It attracted more than 900 investors, including a dedicated retail tranche of over 500 applicants. 

At market opening today, the share price was NOK 134 per share, giving the company a market capitalisation of NOK 17.56 billion.

Jerry Kalogiratos, CEO, Capital Tankers Corp., said: “We are delighted to welcome our new shareholders as Capital Tankers begins its journey as a public company. The strong investor response to our USD 500 million offering — one of the largest shipping equity raises in recent years — is a testament to the quality of our fleet and the compelling fundamentals of the crude tanker market. The Euronext Growth Oslo process was both efficient and rigorous, and was well-suited to our objectives, allowing us to reach a sophisticated investor base rapidly and with confidence. We look forward to delivering on our commitments and creating meaningful value for our shareholders.”
