EBITDA Guidance Adjustment

Ørsted has revised its full-year 2025 EBITDA guidance to DKK 24-27 billion, down from the previous DKK 25-28 billion. This adjustment is primarily due to lower-than-normal offshore wind speeds experienced in July and August, which negatively impacted EBITDA by approximately DKK 1.2 billion.

Investment Guidance

The company maintains its gross investment guidance for 2025 at DKK 50-54 billion, indicating no changes in planned capital expenditures despite the EBITDA adjustment.

Project Delays

A delay in the Greater Changhua 2b construction project is expected to further impact EBITDA by around DKK 0.3 billion in 2025. However, these factors are not anticipated to affect Ørsted’s medium-term targets.
