Financial performance above expectations, with full-year guidance increased in July 2025. Wind Keeper delivered & long-term contract with Vestas secured. Seven vessels on-hire around the world, including two vessels operating in Taiwan and two in North America. Strong and increasing demand for O&M services, especially for larger turbines, reinforcing Cadeler's decision to establish Nexra as a new service concept for the offshore wind industry. Cadeler’s contract backlog continues to strengthen and currently stands at EUR 2.5bn. H1 2025 - Highlights |

Contract backlog remains strong at EUR 2.5 Billion 8 New since Q1 2025 • In July, Cadeler signed a long-term contract with for the Wind Keeper. The contract contemplates a firm period of three years commencing in Q1 2026, with options to extend by two and a half years in aggregate. If all options are exercised, the contract is expected to be worth in excess of EUR 380m. • In August, Cadeler signed a firm contract for WTG installation at the Formosa 4 Offshore Wind Farm in Taiwan. The project, expected to commence in March 2028 and to last for approximately 150 days, will be executed by one of Cadeler's M-class vessels. The value of the contract to Cadeler is estimated to be between EUR 70 and EUR 80 million. • Also in the period, Cadeler received notice of the termination of a long-term agreement for an A-class vessel (principally as a result of Ørsted’s decision to discontinue work towards the Hornsea 4 project). The value of that long-term agreement has been removed from the Group’s order backlog. Development in contract backlog FY 2022 – H1 2025 (1) Figures are for period-end, except that the contract backlog provided for Q2 2025 is as of 26 August 2025 (the date of this presentation). (2) Figures provided for FY 2022 and H1 2023 exclude the contribution to the contract backlog resulting from Cadeler’s business combination with Eneti Inc., completed in December 2023. (3) Contract backlog assumes 100% of counterparty options are exercised. Of the total contract backlog, EUR 2,033m represents firm contracted days and EUR 459m represents days subject to the exercise of counterparty options. (4) 97% of the contract backlog (an aggregate of EUR 2,412m) relates to projects for which the relevant counterparty has taken a positive final investment decision (FID). (5) Contract backlog excludes vessel reservation agreements.

H1 2025 Commercial Outlook |
Cadeler’s view on the market There is a calibration in the market but momentum continues 21 • The market is undergoing a period of recalibration, with governments adjusting support mechanisms to reflect current conditions • Market caution is exercised with conditions and policy improvements expected • Some projects face delays, with timelines shifting closer to 2030 • Important auctions are ahead, including AR7 in the UK, several new early-stage markets are beginning to emerge • Our long-term outlook remains strong; offshore wind is expected to play a crucial role in future energy mix • Strong end-of-decade momentum is expected with potential for significant vessel undersupply |
Undersupply of installation vessels is expected from 2029 22 Forecast of vessel undersupply (illustrative) Key insights • The installation fleet is continuously evolving; legacy vessels are becoming less efficient or obsolete for installation • As many projects are facing delays, lower overall utilisation is expected in 2027 • Demand is expected to recover from 2029 with a strong outlook and undersupply towards the end of the decade • Undersupply for Foundation Installation Vessels and Heavy O&M vessels is expected to happen even earlier • Cadeler maintains strong confidence in the market and has a solid order backlog • We are looking forward to a busy end of the decade, where our large and efficient fleet is an essential enabler Cadeler’s booked capacity (illustrative) 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 Undersupply for foundation vessels will happen earlier Supply/demand equilibrium – total market view Undersupply for O&M vessels comes even earlier |
Newbuilt vessels are much more efficient in installation and can unlock significant savings • Project location: North Sea • Port location: 140nm from site • Number of WTGs: 100 (15 MW) 1. Based on P0 project duration. Days per turbine based on P50 project duration are 3.7 and 5.4 for P-class and NG-9000, respectively 2. Assuming the same duration for all vessel operations (jacking, installation etc.) as well as same sailing speed. Assumed project-related delays includes allowance for weather, tides, and pilotage amongst other items. 23 Efficiency comparison for hypothetical 100 turbine project WTG sets per trip Roundtrips Days per turbine1 Net project duration (days)2 Vessel 6 17 2.14 days P-class 2 50 2.69 days Gusto NG-9000 214 269 ~+47% Project related delays (i.e. weather) |
