29 April 2026
Hunter Group ASA (“the Company”) announces that the Board of Directors has appointed Mr. Erik M. Mathiesen as Interim CEO, effective 29 April 2026 until 31 October 2026.
The appointment follows the Board’s decision, announced on 15 April 2026, that Mr. Erik Frydendal will step down from his role as CEO as the Company transitions into its next phase.
During the appointment period, Mr. Mathiesen will be responsible for the day-to-day management of the Company’s existing operations, including oversight of the current charter-in and charter-out contracts. In parallel, he will work closely with the Board of Directors to develop and execute a plan to transform the Company into a sustainable long-term business as the current contracts approach completion.
Mr. Erik M. Mathiesen has an extensive background in the energy and transportation sectors, with experience across mergers and acquisitions, fund management, and senior executive roles, including leading companies through significant growth and transformation. The Board believes his experience and leadership skills are well suited to guide the Company through this interim period.
