Copenhagen, 26 August 2025 - Today, Cadeler A/S ("Cadeler" and, together with
its subsidiaries, the "Group") has published its interim financial results for
the first half of 2025, reporting results above expectations and in line with
its recently increased full-year revenue and EBITDA guidance. The first half of
the year was characterised by fleet growth, disciplined project execution, and a
sharpened strategic focus on Operations & Maintenance (O&M), as well as
significant compensation in connection with the termination of a long-term
agreement.

Revenue for the first six months of 2025 more than tripled to EUR 299 million,
(H1 2024: EUR 82 million), marking an increase of EUR 217 million (265%)
compared to the same period in 2024. EBITDA rose to EUR 213 million (H1 2024:
EUR 22 million) representing a year-on-year increase of EUR 191 million. Profit
for the period reached EUR 168 million, compared to EUR 0.2 million in the same
period last year.

Cadeler's fleet achieved a combined utilisation rate of 67%, with seven vessels
on hire around the world (including two vessels in Taiwan and two in North
America). In addition, Cadeler became entitled to significant compensation in
connection with the termination of a long-term agreement.

These results are above expectations and in line with the company's
recently-updated full-year revenue and EBITDA guidance, which was revised on 1
July 2025 to reflect increased earnings visibility. Cadeler today reaffirms that
guidance, with full-year revenue expected to range between EUR 588 and 628
million and EBITDA between EUR 381 and 421 million.

Largest and most advanced offshore wind fleet 
In the first half of 2025, Cadeler took delivery of two newbuild Wind Turbine
Installation Vessels (WTIVs), Wind Maker and Wind Pace, on or ahead of schedule
and within budget. Both vessels are now operating on projects in Taiwan and
North America, respectively. 

In May, Cadeler agreed to acquire Wind Keeper, a highly capable O&M vessel, at a
price well below its replacement cost. Cadeler took delivery of Wind Keeper in
July and in the same month announced a long-term contract for the vessel with
Vestas for a three-year period commencing early in 2026 (with additional options
of two and a half years). The vessel is currently in transit to Europe where she
will undergo tailored upgrades in advance of commencing her work with Vestas. 

In the second half of 2025, Cadeler will take delivery of an additional two
WTIVs, Wind Ally and Wind Mover. The company is fully on track with its fleet
expansion strategy and, by mid-2027, Cadeler will operate a 12-vessel fleet -
the largest and most versatile in the offshore wind industry - offering greater
flexibility and execution certainty for its global client base.

Strengthened O&M focus with the launch of Nexra
In March, Cadeler launched Nexra - a new aftermarket division, dedicated to
support the growing market for operations and maintenance solutions (O&M) in the
offshore wind industry. 

The acquisition of Wind Keeper further enhances Cadeler's ability to meet this
rising demand, offering clients purpose-built solutions for turbine servicing
and major component replacement - including for turbines in the 10MW+ segment.

Mikkel Gleerup, CEO of Cadeler, comments: "Our new service concept, Nexra,
further strengthens our commitment to being a long-term partner to our clients,
not just during installation but throughout the operational lifetime of a wind
farm. With Nexra, we are building a world map of opportunities, where we can
meet the growing demand for O&M services and better cater to the needs of our
clients, while at the same time filling gaps in between larger installation
projects to improve utilisation and drive recurring income." 

Commitment to sustainability and innovation
Cadeler continues to invest in energy-efficient vessel design and operational
optimisation in order to reduce emissions intensity. The company is also
evaluating the use of greener marine fuels and is establishing improvement
programs around circularity and marine ecosystem protection. 

Robust order book and international project pipeline
As of 26 August 2025, Cadeler's total contract backlog stood at EUR 2.5 billion,
providing strong earnings visibility into 2026 and beyond. The order book
reflects continued strong demand across regions and includes firm contracts
signed this year for Wind Mover, Wind Pace, Wind Keeper and Wind Maker for work
in Europe, Asia, and the United States. Cadeler continues to operate across key
offshore wind markets, with its vessels currently deployed on projects in
Europe, Asia-Pacific, and North America. 

CEO Mikkel Gleerup comments: "This first half-year demonstrates the strength of
our strategic focus and our ability to deliver, both operationally and
financially, as we scale in a global market. Our expanding fleet, combined with
the launch of Nexra, positions us to support the offshore wind sector's growing
need for both installation and long-term servicing. We are grateful to our
partners, clients and shareholders for their trust in Cadeler's vision, and
above all, to our people, whose dedication drives every success we achieve."
