The Cyprus-based firm, founded by Nassef Sawiris, confirmed the purchases were made to provide market liquidity for shareholders looking to exit, while maintaining the transaction price below the 4.10 euro offer threshold. With this latest move, NNS now holds 115,726,328 shares in the Dutch chemical producer. The acquisition represents approximately 0.06 percent of the company's total issued share capital.

NNS management signaled that further share purchases may occur outside the formal voluntary public offer process, provided such actions align with applicable regulatory frameworks. While the firm maintains a diversified portfolio across credit, real estate, and public equities, its position in OCI remains its most significant holding. Any future adjustments to their position will be disclosed via public filings as required by the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets.
