Activity

The Oslo Stock Exchange (OSE), officially known as Euronext Oslo Børs since joining the Euronext Group in 2019, issues various types of press releases and announcements. These can be broadly categorized into:
1. Euronext Group Press Releases (applicable to all Euronext exchanges, including Oslo):
These are broader announcements from Euronext as a whole, which impact all exchanges under its umbrella. Recent themes include:
* Financial Results & Capital Raising: Announcements regarding Euronext’s own financial performance, or the success of capital raising initiatives like bond offerings. For instance, Euronext recently announced the success of its offering of convertible bonds due 2032 for €425 million (May 22, 2025).
* Strategic Initiatives & Acquisitions: News about Euronext’s strategic moves, such as acquisitions (e.g., the acquisition of Admincontrol, completed May 13, 2025) or new initiatives to strengthen its market position or support specific sectors (e.g., strengthening support for European strategic autonomy with new ESG-focused initiatives on May 6, 2025).
* Market Integration & Harmonization: Efforts to integrate European capital markets, such as the launch of the European Common Prospectus to accelerate capital market integration and boost IPO activity across the EU (April 25, 2025).
* ESG and Sustainability: Updates on Euronext’s commitment to sustainability, including new ESG initiatives and publications.
* Market Volumes: Monthly announcements on trading volumes across Euronext markets (e.g., April 2025 volumes announced May 9, 2025).
2. Euronext Oslo Børs Specific Announcements:
These are news items specifically relevant to the Oslo market, often found on the Oslo section of the Euronext website.
* Regulatory Changes: Important updates on regulatory changes affecting issuers or market participants in Oslo. For example, as of April 1, 2025, Euronext Oslo Børs transferred supervisory tasks for takeover bids, disclosure of inside information, and buy-backs to the Norwegian Financial Supervisory Authority (NFSA).
* Listing and Delisting Information: Announcements regarding new company listings on Euronext Oslo Børs, Euronext Expand, or Euronext Growth Oslo, as well as delistings (e.g., Solstad Maritime ASA listing on Euronext on May 16, 2025, and Gentoo Media’s delisting from Euronext Oslo Børs from July 25, 2025).
* Market Performance and Indices: Information on the performance of Oslo indices, such as the Oslo OBX. On May 27, 2025, the Oslo OBX was reported to be up 0.77%, hitting a new all-time high.
* Company Press Releases (from Listed Companies via OSE): A significant portion of the “press releases” found on the OSE/Euronext Oslo website are actually mandatory disclosures and non-regulatory news from individual listed companies. These include:
* Mandatory Notifications of Trade by Primary Insiders: Companies report transactions in their shares by persons discharging managerial responsibilities (e.g., Borregaard ASA and Hafnia Limited reports on May 27, 2025).
* Financial Results: Quarterly or annual financial reports from listed companies (e.g., Constellation Reports First Quarter 2025 Results on May 26, 2025).
* Corporate Actions: Announcements about dividends, share issues, mergers, acquisitions, or other significant corporate events (e.g., Hafnia Limited’s ex-dividend date on May 22, 2025).
* Other Material Information: Any other information that could significantly impact the company’s share price.
