Other borrowings
On June 6, 2017, the Group signed an agreement with BNP to act as dealer for a Treasury Notes Program
with a maximum outstanding amount of 50 million Euro. On October 1, 2018, KBC was appointed as an
additional dealer in the agreement and the maximum amount was increased from 50 million Euro to
150 million Euro. As of June 30, 2026, the outstanding amount was $51.6 million or 45.3 million Euro
(December 31, 2025: $43.1 million or 36.7 million Euro). The Treasury Notes are issued on an as needed
basis with different durations and initial pricing is set to 60 bps over Euribor. The Company enters into FX
forward contracts to manage the transaction risks related to these instruments issued in Euro compared
to the USD Group currency. The FX contracts have a same nominal amount and duration as the issued
Treasury Notes and they are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the
consolidated statement of profit or loss. On June 30, 2026, the fair value of these forward contracts
amounted to $0.4 million (December 31, 2025: $0.5 million).
CMB.TECH Group entered into a number of sale and leaseback financing arrangements in relation to its
newbuilding program during 2025 and 2026 which also feature a pre-delivery finance component. The sale
and leaseback financing agreements have a term of between 10 and 15 years from the delivery of the
respective vessels and carry an interest rate of SOFR plus 1.95% to 4.21%. At the end of the bareboat
contract, the Company has a purchase option or a purchase obligation. As at June 30, 2026, the total
carrying value of the outstanding balance under these financing arrangements was $2,127.5 million.
The future capital payments for these leaseback agreements are as follows:
