GYG also commented on its potential full-year results, saying that the Nobiskrug shipyard administration is a “key determinant of the outturn for the current year.”
It added that it is close to reaching a contractual resolution on the major refit project and is in advanced talks on the two new build projects.
“In line with previous guidance, based on the Group´s most recent financial forecasts, which include assumptions around contract wins, the timing of revenues, the margins achievable on projects, and a successful resolution to the Nobiskrug situation, the Board believes that the Group can generate sufficient cash to meet its working capital requirements and repay its borrowings as they fall due,” said GYG.
