Vincent Browne, Alternus Energy’s Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairman, commented, “This is another significant milestone in the development of Alternus as we strive to elevate the Company’s capital markets position by up-listing to a US National Exchange at the earliest opportunity. Such a move will make the Company more accessible to a wider investor audience. Finalizing our 2016 and 2017 audits is a necessary first step towards that goal. Having an independent issued opinion on our results from Marcum LLP shows our commitment to taking the necessary steps to build investor confidence.

“While we continue to grow our business by acquiring additional PV solar parks across Europe to further enhance our long term government counterparty income streams, it is just as important for us to advance our capital markets activities. Marcum LLP is currently auditing our 2018 annual financial statements, which we anticipate will complete before the end of Q2. Completion of this audit will allow us to file a Form 10 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to become a reporting entity, a further step in our capital markets evolution. We look forward to elevating our capital markets efforts in parallel to building our business, as we continue our mission to create long-term shareholder value at the lowest possible risk.”
