Year 2020 started with record breaking performance until the abrupt government imposed
COVID19 restrictions forced freeze of operations in mid to end of March. Sunborn Finance Oyj
Rental income however remained as expected at 0.9 M euros (0.9 M euros) and costs were
in line with previous year.
Whist operations in Sunborn Saga Oy were heavily affected from 13th March onwards, strong
performance in January and February provided a good foundation for Q1 revenues, which
decreased only -6 % and EBITDA was -88 keur vs. 170 keur last year. Management has revised
all business forecasts for 2020 to account for the disruption of the pandemic. Business operations
are planned to reopen 1st June whilst the COVID 19 is expected to continue to heavily impact all business
during the remainder of 2020.”

Notable events after the end of the reporting period and estimated future development
Since 13th March 2020, the coronavirus (COVID-19) has led to unprecedented and gradually
worsening business situation in the global hospitality sector, including Finland. COVID-19 impacts
Sunborn Finance Oyj through the operator Sunborn Saga Oy’s ability to continue operations during national emergency and pay the contractual rental payments, which are the main
income for the Company.
Sunborn Finance initiated a written procedure to request the bondholders to
vote in favor of certain waivers and amendments of the terms and conditions of the bonds and
Sunborn Finance Oyj management is confident the written procedure for the amendments and waivers
will be accepted.
Business environment
The COVID-19 restrictions are expected to increase domestic leisure travel demand while reducing
international and business travel.
Short-term risks and uncertainties
The COVID-19 outbreak is severely and negatively affecting the tourism market in Finland.
As the company is reliant on the ability of the property operator to pay rent, recent temporary
closure of the underlying business and the subsequent forecasted recovery period is likely to affect
the performance of the operator in the short and medium term.
The impact of the unprecedented crisis is difficult to predict and it is unknown when the full recovery
of the affected businesses will take place.
