<div id="readability-page-1"><article>MONACO, May 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Scorpio Tankers Inc. (NYSE: STNG) (the “Company”) announced today that it has closed its previously announced private offering (the “Offering”) for $230,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of additional 1.75% convertible senior notes due 2031 (the “New Notes”) to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). This amount includes the full exercise of the initial purchaser’s option to purchase an additional $30,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the New Notes in connection with the Offering. The New Notes priced at 110.25% of par, plus accrued interest in the amount of approximately $1.56 per $1,000 principal amount of New Notes from, and including, April 10, 2026, to, but excluding May 12, 2026. The offering of New Notes resulted in gross proceeds of approximately $253.6 million, and a combined yield to maturity of approximately 1.0% for the aggregate series of New Notes and Initial Notes (as defined below). The New Notes were issued pursuant to the same indenture as the Company’s $375.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.75% convertible senior notes due 2031 (the “Initial Notes” and, together with the New Notes, the “Notes”) issued on April 10, 2026 and form a part of the same series of Notes as the Initial Notes. Although the New Notes will initially trade under a different Rule 144A CUSIP number than the Initial Notes, the Company expects that once de-legended, the New Notes will trade with the same CUSIP number as the Initial Notes. In conjunction with the Offering, the Company repurchased 649,427 shares of its common stock at $84.69 per share. The Notes are senior, unsecured obligations of the Company. The Notes will mature on April 15, 2031, unless earlier converted or repurchased or redeemed in accordance with their terms. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 1.75% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on October 15, 2026. The interest payment to be made with respect to the New Notes on October 15, 2026, will include interest deemed to have accrued from, and including, April 10, 2026. The offering price for the New Notes includes such accrued interest. Prior to January 15, 2031, the Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders only under certain circumstances and during certain periods. On or after January 15, 2031, holders may convert their Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. Upon conversion, the Notes may be settled at the Company’s election, in cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock. The initial conversion rate for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes is 9.9615 shares of common stock, equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $100.39 per share (which represents a conversion premium of approximately 35% above the last reported sale price of the common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on April 7, 2026). The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events. The Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations), for cash at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after April 20, 2029 and on or before the 41st scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for a specified period of time and certain other conditions are satisfied. In addition, the Company will have the right to redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes if certain changes in tax law occur and certain other conditions are satisfied. Except as described in the two immediately preceding sentences, the Notes will not be redeemable at the Company’s option prior to the maturity date. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to, but excluding, the redemption date. If certain corporate events that constitute a “fundamental change” occur, then, subject to limited exceptions, noteholders may require the Company to repurchase their Notes for cash at a price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date. Net proceeds from the Offering were approximately $248.8 million after deducting the initial purchaser’s discounts and commissions and the Company’s estimated Offering expenses. The Company used approximately $55.0 million of the net proceeds from the Offering to repurchase 649,427 shares of common stock as described above and will use the remainder of the net proceeds for general corporate purposes. The New Notes were only offered to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The New Notes and any shares of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the New Notes, have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy securities, nor will there be any offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful.
