Rumoured to be the two ex Skymark and one ex Transaero, delivery to ANA from 2017 onwards if I remember correctly.
The Skymark orders had selected RR engines, the Transaero order went with EA. I can't imagine ANA would be keen to have a mixed fleet.

However:

Serial numbers 162 and 167 have been in storage complete with engines, at TLS for some time, since the Skymark bankruptcy. I believe that they will only need to go to the Germany for interiors.

Serial number 185 was stopped at partial construction, with parts all assigned, and should be a relatively quick delivery.
I've no idea what order #185 corresponds to, but if it is Transaero maybe it didn't get too far down the line to be committed to the EA variant?
