Exhibit 99.1

Scorpio Tankers Inc. Announces Proposed Offering of Convertible Senior Notes and Concurrent Stock Repurchase

MONACO, April 7, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Scorpio Tankers Inc. (NYSE: STNG) (the “Company”) announced today its intention to offer $300,000,000 aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2031 (the “Notes”) in a private offering (the “Offering”) to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), subject to market conditions and other factors. The Company also expects to grant to the initial purchasers of the Notes an option to purchase, during a 13-day period, beginning on, and including, the first date on which the Notes are issued, up to an additional $45,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes.

The Company expects to use a portion of the net proceeds from the Offering to repurchase shares of its common stock (the “Common Stock”), concurrently with the closing of the Offering. The Company expects to repurchase shares sold short by initial investors in the Offering in privately negotiated transactions effected with or through one of the initial purchasers or an affiliate at a price per share equal to the closing price of the Common Stock on the date of the pricing of the Offering.

The Notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of the Company with interest payable semiannually in arrears and will mature on April 15, 2031, unless earlier converted or redeemed or repurchased by the Company. Upon conversion, the Notes may be settled, at the Company’s election, in cash, shares of the Company’s Common Stock, or a combination of cash and shares of the Common Stock. The interest rate, initial conversion rate and other terms of the Notes will be determined upon pricing of the Offering.

The Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations), for cash at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after April 20, 2029 and on or before the 41st scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s Common Stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for a specified period of time and certain other conditions are satisfied. In addition, the Company will have the right to redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes if certain changes in tax law occur and certain other conditions are satisfied. Except as described herein, the Notes will not be redeemable at the Company’s option prior to the maturity date. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

If certain corporate events that constitute a “fundamental change” occur, then, subject to limited exceptions, noteholders may require the Company to repurchase their Notes for cash at a price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date.

The Company intends to use (i) a portion of the net proceeds from the Offering to repurchase shares of Common Stock as described above and (ii) the remainder of the net proceeds for general corporate purposes. The share repurchases, or the expectation of repurchases, could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of the Common Stock or the Notes prior to, concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the Notes, and could result in a higher effective conversion price for the Notes.

The Notes will only be offered to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The Notes and any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy these securities, nor will there be any offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful.
