Copenhagen - 21 May 2025 - Today, Cadeler A/S ("Cadeler" and, together with its
subsidiaries, the "Group") published its Q1 2025 Earnings Release, delivering
progress in both financial and operational performance in the same quarter that
the company has expanded its operational fleet, having taken delivery of two new
vessels. 

For the first three months of 2025, Cadeler reported revenue of EUR 65 million,
an increase of EUR 46 million compared to EUR 19 million in the same period of
2024. 

EBITDA rose to EUR 24 million, an increase of EUR 34 million from a loss of EUR
10 million in Q1 2024. 

The expectation for both revenue and EBITDA remains unchanged for 2025 as
communicated in Cadeler's Annual Report 2024: full-year revenue is expected to
range between EUR 485-525 million and EBITDA is expected to range between EUR
278-318 million. 

Fleet ramp-up and utilisation 

In the first quarter of 2025, Cadeler took delivery of two new state-of-the-art
jack-up wind farm installation vessels. Wind Maker was delivered to the company
in January 2025 and has already begun her first installation job at the Greater
Changhua 2b and 4 offshore wind farms in Taiwan, developed by Ørsted. Wind Pace
was delivered to the company in March 2025 and will be deployed at an offshore
wind farm project in the U.S. under a contract from Q2 2025 to Q1 2026. Both
vessels were delivered to Cadeler safely, on time and within budget, and are
purpose-built to withstand severe weather conditions and operate at the
industry's most challenging offshore wind installation sites across the globe.  

Cadeler's seven operating vessels achieved a combined utilisation rate of 55.3%
in Q1 2025. The utilisation rate is in line with the Company's expectations and
reflects the scheduled drydocking and planned maintenance work scopes, plus time
in transit for the Group's new vessel deliveries.  

CEO Statement 

"We've begun 2025 in line with our expectations," said Mikkel Gleerup, CEO of
Cadeler. "With revenue more than tripling and EBITDA returning firmly to
positive territory, our investments in fleet expansion and project execution are
delivering tangible results. We've brought two more vessels into operation
(representing 50% of the new builds to be delivered in 2025), which will allow
us to continue supporting our clients in Europe, Asia-Pacific and North America
with a modern, flexible and capable fleet." 

"Our outlook for the year remains strong, with a robust contract pipeline,
healthy liquidity, and the strategic headroom needed to support our continued
growth. We remain committed to being the partner of choice for next-generation
offshore wind projects." 

Solidified backlog and global project momentum 

Cadeler's order book for 2025 is substantially filled. As of today's date,
Cadeler's contract backlog stands at EUR 2,487 million, of which EUR 2,023
million is under firm contract and EUR 464 million under exercisable options.
Now 100% of the backlog relates to projects that have received a positive Final
Investment Decision (FID).   

New agreements signed in Q1 2025 include: 

- Two firm contracts signed on 3 February 2025 for the use of the newbuild
vessel Wind Mover, with a combined potential value of up to EUR 75 million
