Credit risk development

Invoice settlement B2B after 30 days

  • Generally, the Group's credit losses are moderate, with a stable trend, and payment behaviour across all segments and markets is very strong.
  • A retro analysis of the customer portfolio per Q2 2025 documents that the basis for credit evaluation and granting is sound, and that we select and reject new B2C and B2B customers as intended.
  • However, we experience a weakening trend in behaviour and creditworthiness in a sub-segment of SMEs in Sweden, primarily within the Horeca sector.
  • Generally, the bankruptcy trend in Sweden has been increasing in 2025.
  • Credit and hedging losses were NOK 25m in the Nordic segment this quarter.

NWC and net cash position

  • Reported NWC increased as interest-bearing supplier credit, previously classified under NWC, was replaced by bank facilities. The underlying leverage remains unchanged.
  • Net cash position reduced from change in NWC and dividend distribution.

1) The trade payables related to the group's power purchase are interest-bearing, but classified as net working capital in the alternative performance measures

Outlook

ROLF BARMEN (CEO)

Outlook

  • Norgespris, the addition to the Norwegian power support scheme, has been approved by the Norwegian Parliament ("Stortinget"). This is expected to increase electricity consumption by reducing consumers' sensitivity to price fluctuations.
  • As of May 2025, the Group has insourced the Power Trading function. Posttransition, operations have been stable, with notable improvements in consumption forecasting accuracy.
  • Fjordkraft Företag successfully launched in May 2025. First distribution partner secured, providing significant opportunities within the B2B retail sector, but also in the B2C segment – where we plan to launch Fjordkraft as the main brand from late this year.
  • Actively pursuing acquisitions increased market opportunities across Norway, Sweden and Finland.

Financial targets 2025-2026

P&L
Net revenue growth in all segments.

Stable nominal opex adj., in line with 2024.

EBIT adj. in the area of NOK 550-600m with a positive development
throughout the period.
Dividend
Target pay-out ratio of at least 80% of net income, adjusted for certain
cash and non-cash items.
Leverage
No underlying change in leverage from current business model.

Reported net interest-bearing debt to increase in 2025 due to changes in
power purchase setup and classification of the current interest-bearing
supplier credit from Statkraft as "net working capital".

Q2 2025 update:

Net revenue growth and EBIT adj. likely below targets for 2025 due to reduced volumes due to high temperatures in H1 2025 and increased credit risk in SME Sweden.
