The company, known for its commitment to sustainable agricultural practices, has announced that it will move up the delivery of its annual report for 2024. This change follows news of a voluntary cash offer made by Constantinsborg A/S.
Context Behind the Decision
This advancement was initially communicated in company announcement 2/2025. As outlined, FirstFarms received notice from Constantinsborg A/S, referred to as the Offeror, indicating their intention to make a cash offer for the purchase of shares in FirstFarms. It’s important to note that this offer excludes any treasury shares owned by FirstFarms, as well as shares that the Offeror already holds.

The annual report, which was originally set for publication on 26 March 2025, will now be available earlier on 13 March 2025. This allows investors and stakeholders to access crucial financial information ahead of the offer deadline.

Board's Consideration of the Offer
The Board of Directors will present their perspective on the offer, examining its benefits and potential drawbacks.
