Moses Lake, Washington USA June 23, 2025: REC Silicon ASA ("REC Silicon" or the "Company") announces the receipt of a letter from Hanwha, the Company’s largest shareholder, which has been distributed to certain shareholders.

In the letter, Hanwha states that REC is in a challenging situation, both operationally and financially and will in their view need substantial and immediate support going forward. They also state that as the Company’s largest shareholder and creditor, Hanwha strongly believes that maintaining continuity and stability at the board level is essential during this critical period for REC Silicon. Finally, Hanwha states that while Hanwha supports the current governance structure, any material change to the composition of the board may require a reassessment of Hanwha’s position and level of support going forward.

The letter is attached hereto.

As stated in all recent stock exchange releases, including the latest issued on June 20, 2025, REC Silicon does not have sufficient available cash to meet debt service and other anticipated operating cash flow requirements for this year without the continued support of the major shareholder, Hanwha, or additional sources of capital. Therefore, it will soon require additional financing either from Hanwha or from other sources of capital, none of which have yet been finalised or guaranteed.

The Annual General Meeting of REC Silicon ASA will be held as a digital meeting on June 25, 2025, at 13:00 CEST.

The deadline for electronic registration of attendance, alternatively advance votes, as well as proxy of voting and instructions is June 23, 2025 at 16:00 (4 pm) CEST.
