Consistent execution drives strong consolidated results

For the nine-month period, Revenue grew by 23% to EUR 1,546 million and Adjusted EBITDA reached EUR 261 million, EUR 67 million (+35%) higher than last year's comparable period. During Q3, good execution and full production schedules resulted in a 17% YoY higher turnover at EUR 524 million. The favourable mix of energy projects in both segments pushed margins above 17% producing operational profits of EUR 90 million (+21% compared to Q3 2024)

Higher operational profitability lifted profit before income tax to EUR 192 million for the period ending on September 30th , 2025, 56% higher than the EUR 123 million recorded in 9M 2024. Profit after tax for the same period stood at EUR 148 million (EUR 100 million in 9M 2024) representing almost 10% of revenue (9M 2024: 8%), and earnings per share amounted to 0.70 EUR.

Net finance costs were ca. EUR 40 million for the first nine months of the year, EUR 9 million lower than the same period last year. As previously reported, the de-escalation is due to lower credit spreads and lower reference rates. Excluding FX losses of EUR 6.4 million, linked to USD holdings for the investment in Maryland, net finance costs are 31% lower than 9M 2024.

The ongoing capacity expansions at cable manufacturing facilities and increased working capital requirements during Q3 2025, resulted in higher net debt position compared to June 30th . Nevertheless, net debt is expected to decline in Q4, so leverage will stay at satisfactory levels.

Finally, backlog remains at high levels (EUR 3.3 billion), providing revenue visibility for the coming quarters. New awards (outlined below) kept it strong, despite significant order execution in Q3, and this momentum is expected to continue into 2026.

Amounts in EUR million

Cables segment

The cables business maintained high utilization rates and strong margins, completing key offshore and onshore projects:

  • Initial batches of 66kV inter-array cables for the East Anglia 3 OWF (UK) and 155kV export cables for DolWin Kappa (Germany) were delivered.
  • Manufacturing progressed on projects in Poland, France, and Germany, including the Nordseecluster and Dieppe Le Tréport OWFs.
  • Onshore production for the 220kV Gennaker project in the Baltic Sea remained on track.
  • New awards include:
  • ✓ A contract with Seaway7 for 165 km of 66kV submarine cables for East Anglia 2 OWF.
  • ✓ A turnkey IPTO project interconnecting Igoumenitsa and Corfu, Greece with 150kV composite cables.

Steel pipes segment

Corinth Pipeworks continued its strong performance, supported by:

  • Successful commissioning of the new Concrete Weight Coating (CWC) plant in Thisvi, Greece.
  • Ongoing pipeline production for clients in the U.S., Italy, and Israel.
  • Progress on strategic projects such as OMV Petrom's Neptun Deep and BP's NEP CCS in the North Sea.
  • A new award for the Greece–North Macedonia Interconnector, a gas pipeline certified to transport up 100% of hydrogen.

Outlook

Cenergy Holdings remains well positioned to capitalize on long-term energy trends.

The cables segment is expanding offshore and onshore capacity, including a strategic investment in the U.S. market. At the same time, demand for low and medium voltage as well as telecom cables remains robust, with additional volumes secured through long-term framework agreements.

The steel pipes segment is leveraging its competitive edge to pursue opportunities in natural gas, CCS, and hydrogen infrastructure. As market conditions improve, the segment's order backlog is expected to grow further, while the efficient execution of secured projects supports a positive outlook for the remainder of the year

Given the strong order backlog in both segments and the solid profitability achieved to date, Cenergy Holdings is pleased to upgrade its full-year 2025 guidance for adjusted EBITDA to the range of EUR 335 – 350 million (previously EUR 310–340 million). The upgraded guidance reflects management's confidence in continued execution and resilience amid global uncertainties but is subject to the following key assumptions: a) smooth execution of energy projects across both segments, b) no material adverse developments in global trade policies, and c) limited financial impact from ongoing geopolitical uncertainties, macroeconomic volatility, supply chain disruptions, or other external shocks.
