Kibo Subsidiary Announces TR-1 Notification of Major Shareholdings

Kibo Energy PLC (AIM: KIBO; AltX: KBO), the renewable energy-focused development company, announces a TR-1 Notification by its subsidiary Mast Energy Developments PLC ('MED'), a UK-based multi-asset owner, developer and operator in the rapidly growing flexible power market.

The proceeds from the disposal of the MED shares amounting to approximately GBP119,444 have been used for Kibo's ongoing working capital requirements and to reduce the outstanding balance on the Company's reprofiled bridge loan facility with RiverFort Global Opportunities PCC Ltd in order to meet the monthly payments to reduce potential equity dilution arising from the elected missed payment rights (refer Kibo RNS announcements of 11 and 26 April 2023).

Further details can be found in the full MED announcement, which is available below and at med.energy :
