BW Ideol's mission is to create a sustainable future by using floating

technology to unlock the vast potential of offshore wind. The Company is

executing its dual-track strategy as a co-developer of offshore floating wind

projects and as EPCI (engineering, procurement, construction and installation)

contractor of floating wind technology. Progress is reflected in a growing

project pipeline of commercial-scale projects, new cooperation agreements and

participation in tenders for floating offshore wind farm developments.

"We continue to deliver on our long-term strategy and by developing our

significant pipeline of offshore floating wind developments. We have established

a strong platform for growth as a leading project developer and technology

provider and are well positioned to capture new opportunities emerging

worldwide. These are driven by an increasingly urgent need for global energy

systems to transition to clean renewable power to support long-term sustainable

economic growth amid soaring energy prices due to war, supply concerns and

recent temperature spikes in Europe and elsewhere," said Paul de la Guérivière,

the CEO of BW Ideol.

Interest in offshore floating wind solutions has increased in 2022 due to energy

supply concerns and higher prices. This is driven by a normalisation of global

economic activity due to easing of the Covid-19 pandemic and increased supply

uncertainty created by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. There is a shared

ambition by most European nations to become independent of oil and gas from

Russia supported by an accelerated development of renewable power generation. To

date, the Company has not been subject to any direct negative impact of the war

in Ukraine.

Interest is also increasing as nations and corporations seek innovative

solutions to decarbonise various industry value chains. This is reflected in two

initial feasibility studies for oil and gas companies for creating a framework

for power-to-platform projects in cooperation with BW Offshore. BW Ideol is well

positioned to contribute to the energy transition at scale as a leading project

developer and technology provider with a unique platform for execution of

offshore floating wind developments.

Revenue for the first half of 2022 was EUR 3.7 million of which EUR 2.7 million

was from design and engineering activities and royalties for projects in France

and Asia. This compares with EUR 1.2 million, for the same period of 2021.

Operating loss before depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) for the period was

EUR 2.1 million, a decrease from EUR 3.9 million in the same period of 2021,

mainly due to an increase in revenue from customers and the accounting of the

French R&D tax credit as other operating income under IFRS. At 30 June 2022,

total equity was EUR 105.4 million and the equity ratio was 78%. Total cash was

EUR 14.1 million, compared to EUR 32.8 million at 31 December 2021.
