KKR Entities Exit as Substantial Shareholders in Karoon Energy

An update from Karoon Energy Ltd ( (AU:KAR) ) is now available.

Karoon Energy Ltd has disclosed that a group of KKR-affiliated entities, including Comet Asia Holdings I and II, KKR Asia III Fund Investments and KKR Asian Fund III, have ceased to be substantial shareholders as of 23 February 2026.
