In addition, the Board believes that Eniro will not be able to meet the loan amortization payments that are required under the terms of its current loans by the second quarter 2017. The Board has initiated negotiations with Eniro’s creditors to adapt the company’s loan terms and other capital structure to the new business model and the company’s long-term ability to repay. Eniro’s creditors consist of a consortium of six banks. These negotiations are expected to continue during the rest of the year. The Board is currently of the opinion that it will be possible to adapt the company’s capital structure. The Board continues to work for a refinement of the Group and is evaluating possible divestments of non-strategic businesses.
