Dubai, Kyiv and New York, May 26, 202
6 – VEON Ltd. (Nasdaq: VEON), a global digital operator, today announced that Kyivstar Group Ltd. (Nasdaq: KYIV, KYIVW) (“Kyivstar”) has completed the acquisition of six solar power plants in the Lviv region of Ukraine, with a combined installed capacity of 105 megawatts (MW), for a total consideration of USD 80.8 million (UAH 3.6 billion). The solar assets being acquired generated approximately 113 GWh of electricity, while delivering approximately UAH 682 million of revenue and UAH 596 million of EBITDA in FY 2025, based on unaudited management accounts.

This acquisition expands Kyivstar’s renewable energy generation portfolio nearly ninefold and reflects VEON’s and Kyivstar’s continued investment in Ukraine’s infrastructure and energy sector. Following Kyivstar’s entry into renewable energy in December 2025 with the acquisition of the 13 MW Sunvin 11 solar power plant, Kyivstar’s total installed solar generation capacity now stands at 118 MW. The expected annual output from this combined portfolio is equivalent in volume to approximately 30% of Kyivstar’s current annual electricity consumption across its telecom operations.

Kyivstar will sell 100% of the electricity produced by the newly acquired solar power plants to Ukraine’s unified energy system in accordance with current market and regulatory rules. This enhances the company’s ability to hedge electricity costs by supplying energy from its solar power plants to the national grid at market prices with green energy tariffs, supporting operational efficiency as connectivity demand continues to expand across Ukraine.

“Kyivstar’s investment in renewable energy reflects VEON’s disciplined capital allocation in the markets we serve, deploying capital into infrastructure that generates revenue and provides a partial hedge against rising electricity costs,” said Kaan Terzioglu, Chief Executive Officer of VEON. “As Ukraine’s leading digital operator, Kyivstar plays a critical role in maintaining connectivity for millions of customers. This acquisition strengthens Kyivstar’s operational foundation while contributing to Ukraine’s energy sector development and advancing renewable energy generation.”

“Renewable energy is a key focus area of Kyivstar’s investment portfolio, and this acquisition opens further opportunities for the use of green electricity to meet the company’s energy needs,” said Oleksandr Komarov, President of Kyivstar. “The development of our own energy generation is an important component of our long-term vision aimed at building a safe, sustainable, and efficient infrastructure. Together with VEON, we continue to increase investments in the Ukrainian economy because we believe in Ukraine and its successful future.”

The acquisition of the new solar generation capacity was completed after signing of binding documentation earlier today with the seller, and regulatory approvals were received preceding the transaction.

A brief presentation with key information about this acquisition is available on the VEON website here.

KYIV, Ukraine and NEW YORK, May 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Kyivstar Group Ltd. (Nasdaq: KYIV; KYIVW), the parent company of JSC Kyivstar (“Kyivstar”), Ukraine’s leading digital operator and part of VEON Group (Nasdaq: VEON), today announced it is expanding its energy assets with the acquisition of six solar power plants in the Lviv region.

The group of six acquired assets has a total installed capacity of 105 megawatts (MW). The total consideration paid is UAH 3.6 billion (USD 80.8 million). The solar assets being acquired generated approximately 113 GWh of electricity, while delivering approximately UAH 682 million of revenue and UAH 596 million of EBITDA in 2025¹.

This acquisition marks another step forward in the development of Kyivstar’s energy generation portfolio. The company began expanding its energy asset base in December 2025 with the acquisition of Sunvin 11 (13 MW). Following the addition of the newly acquired assets, Kyivstar’s green energy generation has increased to 118 MW, enabling it to produce electricity equivalent to approximately 30% of its current annual consumption.

Kyivstar will supply electricity produced by the newly acquired solar power plants to Ukraine’s unified energy system in accordance with current market and regulatory rules. This enhances the company’s ability to hedge electricity costs by supplying energy from these solar power plants to the national grid at market prices with green energy tariffs, supporting operational efficiency as connectivity demand continues to expand across Ukraine.

“Renewable energy is a key focus area of Kyivstar’s investment portfolio, and this acquisition opens further opportunities for the use of green electricity to meet the company’s energy needs,” said Oleksandr Komarov, President of Kyivstar. “The development of our own energy generation is an important component of our long-term vision aimed at building safe, sustainable and efficient infrastructure. Together with VEON, we continue to increase investments in the Ukrainian economy because we believe in Ukraine and its successful future.”

Investments in renewable energy enable Kyivstar to diversify its approach to meeting energy needs and build greater operational stability. With electricity demand growing alongside data traffic expansion, green energy projects support Kyivstar’s long-term energy strategy while strengthening Ukraine’s energy sector and advancing sustainable development goals.

Kyivstar will continue to invest in initiatives that combine technological efficiency, alignment with ESG principles and support for the Ukrainian economy.

NEW YORK, May 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces that a securities class action lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the Northen District of California on behalf of all persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Snowflake, Inc. (“Snowflake”, “SNOW” or the “Company”) (NYSE: SNOW) securities between May 24, 2023, and June 10, 2024, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

The Complaint alleges that Frank Slootman (“Slootman”), who was Snowflake’s Chairman and CEO from 2019 to early 2024, created a Rule 10b5-1 sales plan, which triggered stock sales when prices hit certain parameters. The Complaint continues to allege that Slootman sold approximately $223 million worth of Snowflake stock in only 46 days, right before the Company disclosed devastating news about various business challenges.

The Complaint also alleges that on February 28, 2024, CFO Scarpelli stated: “We are forecasting increased revenue headwinds associated with product efficiency gains, tiered storage pricing and the expectation that some of our customers will leverage Iceberg Tables for their storage.” The Complaint further alleges that he added: “we do expect a number of our large customers are going to adopt Iceberg formats and move their data out of Snowflake where we lose that storage revenue and also the compute revenue associated with moving that data into Snowflake.” On this news, the stock price dropped $41.72 (18.14%,) from a close of $230.00 per share on February 28, 2024 to $188.28 per share on February 29, 2024.

Investors who purchased or otherwise acquired shares of Snowflake should contact the Firm prior to the July 21, 2026 lead plaintiff motion deadline. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. If you wish to discuss your rights or interests regarding this class action, please contact Thomas J. McKenna, Esq. or Gregory M. Egleston, Esq. of Gainey McKenna & Egleston at (212) 983-1300, or via e-mail at [email protected] or [email protected].
