According to InvestingPro data, the company’s stock has experienced significant volatility, trading at $0.04 per share, down 99.56% over the past year.

The agreement, dated May 7, 2025, detailed the sale of MH02, including its subsidiaries, to OBN Real Estate Limited and BVP Green Bond 2018 Limited for a total consideration that includes the assumption of approximately $19 million in debt.

As part of the deal, Alternus Clean Energy also agreed to a debt forbearance with the Majority Buyer, which will postpone the right to claim up to $17 million against the Company’s parent guarantee until MH02’s solar projects reach a ready-to-build status. Alternus retains the right to purchase the solar photovoltaic projects at fair market value, subject to a minimum price, as each reaches the specified status.
