Letter from the CEO

Fourth quarter has truly been an exciting period for Edda Wind

During the quarter we have successfully launched the company on Oslo Stock Exchange with a capital increase of about EUR 90 million.

The Group secured a new 5 year contract for the Edda Wind fleet and prepared the company for further growth. Six vessels in the Edda Wind fleet are committed to mid to long term contracts and are fully financed.

With our capital base and market position in an expanding market with limited supply, I am confident that the Group will deliver on its ambitions.

The Edda Wind fleet fulfils our quality demands and has operated without injuries to personnel, spill to the environment or commercial offhire throughout the quarter.

I would like to thank everyone involved in these great achievements: Staff onboard the vessels and in the offices, our shareholders, creditors and advisors.

Kenneth Walland CEO

Highlights Q4 2021

Secured a new 5 year charter contract with Siemens Gamesa from 2023, adding another industry major as a long term client

Entered into a 5 year EUR 110 million senior secured ECA-supported green credit facility, securing financing for existing vessels and newbuilds with delivery up to Q3 2023

54% growth in freight income compared to same quarter last year as a third vessel entered the fleet in April 2021

No technical downtime

Management Report Q4 2021

Operations

Edda Wind ASA and subsidiaries ("The Group") owns and operates two purpose-built SOVs and operates one chartered in frontrunner vessel. Edda Passat and Edda Mistral operates in the North Sea on long-term charters for Ørsted on Hornsea 1 and Race Bank windfarms, while Edda Fjord is chartered in as a frontrunner for a long term contract with Ocean Breeze at the Bard Offshore 1 windfarm. All three vessels had full utilization throughout the quarter with zero injuries.

The Group has a new building program for two SOVs and seven CSOVs at yards in Spain and Sri Lanka with site personnel from Østensjø Rederi, as technical manager. This includes orders placed after the balance sheet date.

Edda Wind Management AS was established in April 2021, initially with three full-time employees, and will be expanded as required.

Group consolidated results Q4 2021

Operating income for Q4 2021 was EUR 6.8 million, slightly higher than Q3 2021 and significantly higher than EUR 4.4 million in the same quarter 2020 due to one additional chartered-in vessel in operation. Operating expenses was EUR 6.4 million, whereof EUR 0.8 million was non-recurring cost primarily related to IPO/listing of the company in November. In Q4 2020 the operating expense was EUR 3.1 million and the increase is primarily related to the chartering-in of one vessel as a frontrunner for long-term employment contract for one of the newbuildings. Extra cost related to Covid-19 sick leave was approx. EUR 23 thousand during Q4 2021 (EUR 71 thousand for full year 2021).

Operating profit before depreciation in Q4 2021 was EUR 0.4 million, versus EUR 1.3 million Q4 2020. Net financial result in Q4 2021 was EUR 0.7 million mainly affected by currency differences.

Profit before tax was EUR 0.3 million, which is similar to same quarter last year.

Capital structure and financing

Cash and cash equivalent ended at EUR 89.5 million, up from EUR 18.9 million at the end of Q3 2021 reflecting the capital raised in connection with the listing at Oslo Stock Exchange in November.

Investment in vessels and newbuildings was EUR 204.7 million, up from EUR 167.4 million at the end of Q3 2021 due to payments made in relation to the six newbuildings on order.

Total interest-bearing debt was EUR 117.5 million, down from EUR 134.7 million in Q3 2021, as EUR 27 million in shareholders loan was converted to equity prior to the IPO and therefore up from EUR 107.7 million related only to vessel financing. During Q4 2021 the company entered into a credit facility of abt. EUR 110 million, whereof abt. EUR 42.1 million was drawn at the end of Q4 2021, refinancing two vessels in operation. Following this, six vessels in the fleet have long term financing.

Total equity was EUR 184.5 mill by the end of Q4 2021, compared to EUR 66.2 million at the end of Q3 2021, primarily reflecting the capital increase of EUR 89.8 million and conversion of shareholder loans of EUR 27 million.

Events after the balance sheet date

On 31.01.2022, Edda Wind ordered three Commissioning Service Operation Vessels (CSOV) for delivery January and July 2024 in addition to the six vessels the Group has under construction. The vessels are specially designed for service operations during the commissioning and operation of offshore wind farms.

One vessel will be built at Astilleros Gondan, Spain and two vessels to be built at Colombo Dockyard PLC, Sri Lanka. In addition, the Group has options with the yards to build more vessels. In relation to ordering new vessels the group has established new subsidiaries.

Management Report Q4 2021

Outlook

The offshore wind market is expected to grow significantly over the next years as the industry offers renewable energy based on proven technology and benefiting from established valuechains and economy of scale. An increasing number of coastal nations establish plans and programs for new offshore wind parks world-wide and a significant number of the future projects are considered to be fixed. Offshore wind parks are to a larger extent placed longer distance from shore, increasing the requirement for CSOVs and SOVs to support the commissioning phase as well as the entire operational phase.

A strengthened demand for subsea vessels has contributed to an increase in dayrates, as several subsea vessels have left the offshore wind market and thereby reducing potential supply. In the last half of 2021, a steady increase in newbuild prices from yard has been identified. These trends are expected to continue going forward. It is expected that having a number of vessels under construction with attractive delivery dates and firm cost places the Group in a favourable position.

As a pure-play offshore wind service company, built on the heritage of the major shareholders with significant offshore and shipping experience, the Group considers that with the fleet of 11 purpose-built vessels it will take a leading role in this market going forward.

The newbuilding program

As at the end of 2021 the Group had six vessels under construction at two yards in Spain, two SOVs and four CSOVs. The two SOVs and the four CSOVs, respectively, are sister vessels and to a large extent both the SOVs and the CSOV are based on the same main components and technology, offering benefits in operation, training, and spares and during construction.

The Group will take delivery of two vessels in 2022 that will commence contract directly after delivery.

The Group has been informed by the yards that there is a delay in delivery of the gangways that will impact the delivery of two of the vessels. As previously informed, one vessel is expected to be about 2 months delayed and a frontrunner is already in operation. For the other vessel there will likely be about 3 months delay. The Group is cooperating with the yards, suppliers and clients to minimize the impact of such delays.

NOTE 1

General accounting principles

Basis of preparation

This interim condensed consolidated financial statement has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The interim condensed consolidated financial report is unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated Annual Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2020 for Edda Wind AS (Group), which were prepared in accordance with IFRS as endorsed by the EU. Consolidated interim- and yearly financial statements are available on the news services from Oslo Stock Exchange, www.newsweb.no and the Company's webpage, www.eddawind.com

Edda Wind AS ("EWAS") was founded in September 2019 as a fully owned subsidiary of Johannes Østensjø dy AS ("JØDY"). In March 2020 there was a contribution in kind transaction, where JØDY inserted the shares in Edda Supply Ships (UK) Ltd ("ESUK") and West Energy AS ("WEAS") in EWAS, and the Edda Wind Group was formed. From before the contribution in kind transaction JØDY was in control of both ESUK and WEAS. During 2021, EWAS converted to a public liability company, and changed its name to Edda Wind ASA ("EWASA").

This reorganization satisfies the description of a business combination under common control, which is scoped out of IFRS 3. The accounting policy used for this transaction is the "pooling of interest method", and hence the assets and liabilities of all combining parties have been reflected at their predecessor carrying amount.

The Group's interim condensed consolidated financial statement are presented in Euros, which is also the parent company's functional currency. For each entity within the Group, the Group has determined the functional currency based on the primary economic environment of which the entity operates. Items included in the financial statements are measured using that functional currency. The functional currency for the Group's entities are EUR, GBP and NOK.

The interim financial report is prepared on the assumption of a going concern.

Basic policies

The accounting policies applied are consistent with those applied in the Annual Financial Statements for Edda Wind ASA for the year ended 31 December 2020. No new standards have been applied in 2021.

Notes (EUR 1.000)

NOTE 2

Revenue from contracts with customers

Operating income

The Groups revenue mainly derives from offering vessels and maritime personnel to the offshore wind sector under long-term chartering agreements. Under these agreements the Group delivers a vessel, including crew, to the customer. The customer determines, within the contractual limits, how the vessel is to be utilised. The Group is remunerated at an agreed daily rate for use of vessel, equipment, crew and other resources or services utilised under the contract. The Group's contracts also include victualling covering meals and bedding provided to customer personnel onboard the vessel. The Group's revenue is split into a service element and lease element. The revenue is mainly recognised over time as the performance obligation is satisfied over time.

The Group also provides management services to companies outside of the Group. Remuneration for management services is classified as other revenue and recognised over time as performance obligation is satisfied over time.

The Group has one reportable segment being the Offshore Wind segment.

Leasing

In April 2021 the group entered into a 12 month lease for the vessel Edda Fjord from related party West Supply VIII AS. This contract is a lease in scope of IFRS 16, however the Group have elected to apply the recognition exemption for short-term leases and the Group has recognised the lease payments as an expense over the lease period. The vessel is operating as a frontrunner for Edda Wind newbuilding vessel expected to be delivered in Q2 2022. During the year the Group recognised a lease expense of EUR 5,837 thousand.

NOTE 3

Newbuilding vessels

In March 2021 the Group entered into contracts with Astilleros Gondan for two newbuilding Commissioning Service Operation Vessels (CSOVs) for delivery in Q3 2023 and Q2 2024.

Impairment assessment

The Group has performed an assessment of impairment indicators in accordance with IAS 36. Identification of impairment indicators is based on an assessment of development in market rates, earnings for the fleet, vessel operating expenses, operating profit, technological development, change in regulations, interest rates, discount rates and inherent climate risk. The impairment assessment covers both operational vessels, as well as vessels under construction at year end. Each vessel is considered as a separate CGU.

Edda Wind's two operational SOVs, Edda Passat and Edda Mistral, are both on long-term charter party contracts until Q1 2023 and Q3 2023 respectively. Further, Edda Wind has secured contracts for four of its vessels under construction, see contract status below.

Following strong activity in the offshore wind market and several offshore wind farms coming closer to installation, the tendering activity has been strong, with several live tenders during 2021. A strengthened demand for subsea vessels has also contributed to an increase in dayrates, as several subsea vessels have left the offshore wind market and thereby reducing potential supply. The market has seen some ordering of newbuilds since the end of 2020, on par with expectations given the expected demand development. In the last half of 2021, a steady increase in newbuild prices from yard has been identified. These trends are expected to continue into the next financial year. The market expectations are further supported by a positive price/book ratio at year end.

Management reporting show that both operational vessels have been profit making during 2021. The Group has not observed any decline in the asset's value during the year that is significantly more than could be expected from passing of time. The Group has obtained broker valuation reports from two acknowledged independent brokers for the two operational SOVs. The valuation reports indicates that the vessel's fair value is higher than book value.

Exposure to climate-related matters could also be an indicator that an asset it impaired, and the Group has assessed its exposure to climate risk. Climate risk refers to the impact climate change may have on the Group's business, such as physical changes in operating environment, changes in demand for the Group's services or regulatory changes. Effects of climate change, such as rapid weather changes may result in challenging working conditions and affect vessel utilisation. For the Edda Wind fleet, management has assessed this risk as low, as all vessels are equipped with technology to handle harsh weather conditions, such as motion compensated gangway systems and cranes. The Group also faces risk of changes in regulatory requirements. Such risks may be penalties or taxation on CO2 emissions or other cost increasing measures adversely affecting the Group. The risk may also be changes in the growth of the offshore wind market due to change in regulatory requirements or technological advances in other renewable energy segments. Given the accelerating transition from fossil-based to zero-carbon energy sources, with considerable investments within the offshore wind segment, the Group does not expect that regulators will impose adverse requirements to participants within the segment to slow growth. Although the vessels main source of emission is CO2, the vessels are built for zero-emission technology and the Group therefore expects that it will be able to reduce its emissions going forward.

Based on the above, management has concluded that there are no indicators of impairment at 31.12.2021.
