Operational
• On 30 June 2025 the Company has successfully refinanced its SLB facility by drawing a new loan amounting to USD 85 million, with additional USD 10 million to be drawn in July, materially improving future cash flows.

The vessels Energy Sphynx and Energy Savanah are under management but not owned by the Group.

In the second quarter of 2025 the company has entered into an agreement refinancing the interest-bearing debt. This marks a new chapter in the Company's financing outlook, with materially improved future cash flows. I'm also very pleased to report that subsequent the balance-sheet date yet more structural changes have been made which will improve the financial health of the group going forward.
On 30 June GEOS finalized refinancing of its interest-bearing debt by settling the SLB facility in full and drawing a new loan from Neptune Maritime Leasing Ltd. A total approved amount of the new loan, which is structured as a sale and leaseback agreement, is USD 95 million. GEOS Group secured financing with significantly improved terms, interest rates and an amortization profile that reflects current market conditions and the Group's risk profile.
Lower financing costs are expected to have positive effect on both the result and cash position of the Group going forward.
Despite oversupply in the market that resulted in reduced spot rates, the Company maintained stable operational performance.
GEOS remains committed to its strategy, which continued to deliver strong results during the quarter, further reinforcing the Group's strong position as a supplier of quality tonnage to Tier 1 clients. The fleet's utilization in the quarter was again solid with the Group's fleet contracted at very attractive day rates compared to the overall spot market.
The fair value of the fleet is consistently well above the book value, which indicates a considerable net asset value discount compared to the current share price. This is expected to continue attracting investors to the Company.
Our vision for growth and success remains firm. GEOS is well-positioned to leverage new opportunities in 2025 and beyond.
Best Regards,
Per Ivar Fagervoll, CEO – Golden Energy Offshore Services ASA

1 Average of two brokers.

In Q2 2025, the Group achieved time charter equivalent earnings of approximately NOK 196.6 thousand compared with NOK 226.4 thousand in same quarter last year per day for vessels in operation. The change in TCE is partly explained by a more challenging spot market in the North Sea at the end of Q2 2025 compared with a stronger market in the same period last year, and partly by a stronger NOK towards USD.
The Group operated seven platform supply vessels (PSVs) and two offshore construction vessels (OCVs) in the market during the quarter. All vessels are in excellent condition ready for continued operations. All periodic maintenance and dry docking in the period were successfully completed.
Having a healthy mix of vessels on spot contracts as well as on firm long-term contracts, the Group has a satisfactory financial risk profile on operating activities.
The Group had a utilization of approximately 96% during Q2 2025 compared to 92% in Q2 2024, significantly above the overall market. The utilization was 93% for the whole year 2024.
Despite the slowdown in the North Sea spot market at the end of the quarter, the Group has experienced high tender activity after the balance sheet date and favorable balance between supply and demand in the sector. With a firm backlog secured for the remainder of the year 2025 and well into 2026 of approximately NOK 199 million, and broker estimations that imply a healthy value of the Group´s vessels, we are optimistic for our future path.
Market Risks: The offshore services industry is highly dependent on the oil and gas industry. Fluctuations in oil and gas prices can significantly impact on the demand for offshore services.
Operational Risks: These include risks related to safety, technology, and equipment. Offshore operations are inherently risky, and accidents or failures can lead to significant costs.
Regulatory Risks: The industry is subject to numerous regulations related to environmental protection, safety, and other areas. Changes in these regulations can have a significant impact on operations and costs.
Financial Risks: This includes risks related to currency exchange rates, interest rates, and access to capital. Companies in this industry often have significant capital expenditure and may need to rely on external financing.
Geopolitical Risks: Offshore operations often take place in different parts of the world, and companies can be affected by political instability, changes in government policies, or international sanctions.
Climate Change and Energy Transition Risks: There is an increasing global focus on climate change and a shift towards renewable energy. This could reduce the demand for offshore oil and gas services and impact on the long-term viability of the industry.
The Group is committed to the protection of the environment and place high priority on environmental considerations in managing its business. We support initiatives that promote environmental responsibility. In addition to complying with environmental legislation, we will strive to do more where it makes sense, recognizing that individual contributions make a difference.

We commit to energy management and define goals for reducing fuel oil consumption, give high focus on Green Operations, Sustainability and be in the front seat when developing and testing new technology. How well we manage to reach our goals is thoroughly proven. We have a high focus on how our environmental footprint can be reduced, and how our operations can be optimized to contribute to the United Nations sustainability goals.
Freight revenue decreased by NOK 38.9 million or 28.7% to NOK 96.8 million in Q2 2025 from NOK 135.7 million in Q2 2024. The decrease is primarily due to lower rates caused by oversupply in the market.
Other revenues primarily comprise management revenues for the vessels Energy Sphynx and Energy Savanah, and are as expected.
Operating expenses of vessels increased by NOK 8.4 million or 16.2% to NOK 60.2 million in Q2 2025 compared to NOK 51.8 million in Q2 2024 due to increased operational costs following the expansion in fleet size, leading to a rise in management and administration fees in addition to general price increase.
In Q2 2025, the Group reported an EBITDA of NOK 39.0 million, a decrease from NOK 58.2 million in Q2 2024, reflecting the impact of lower revenues and partly mitigated by lower overall operating expenses during the period, with a larger fleet.
The Group had depreciation of NOK 23.8 million in Q2 2025 compared to NOK 19.0 million in Q2 2024, primarily resulting from depreciation of capitalized maintenance.
EBIT decreased by NOK 24.0 million to NOK 15.3 million in Q2 2025 compared to NOK 39.2 million in Q2 2024.
Net financial items for Q2 2025 amounted to negative NOK 94.5 million, compared to negative NOK 20.3 million in Q2 2024, representing a net financial result decrease of NOK 74.2 million. The change was primarily driven by additional financial charges related to repayment of the SLB facility.
Basic earnings per share in Q2 2025 were NOK -3.17 compared to NOK 0.09 in Q2 2024.
The Group's total assets decreased by NOK 52.1 million to NOK 1 533.7 million as of 30 June 2025, compared to NOK 1 585.7 million as of 31 December 2024. On 30 June 2025, the Group's equity ratio was 25.9%, a decrease from 27.6% as of 31 December 2024. The decline is mostly due to the one-off financial impact on the profit and loss as a consequence of the refinancing of debt, refer to note 4 and 5.
The Company received a fleet valuation from two independent brokers as of 30 June 2025. The average valuation between the two shows a market value of NOK 1.9 billion compared with book value of NOK 1.4 billion.
The Group's net interest-bearing debt was NOK 933.7 million as of June 2025, compared to NOK 937.7 million as of 31 December 2024. The net interest-bearing debt has decreased primarily as a result of debt repayments during the period, and the terms and conditions for the restructured debt are materially improved.

In Q2 2025, the net cash inflow from operating activities amounted to an outflow of NOK 9.2 million, compared with an inflow of NOK 23.7 million during the corresponding quarter of 2024. The primary factors contributing to this change, other than loss before income tax are the non-cash elements depreciation of NOK 23.8 million and interest expenses of NOK 26.6 million as well as a reduction in trade receivables amounting to NOK 19.0 million.
Net cash outflow from investment activities was NOK 27.1 million in Q2 2025, compared to an outflow of NOK 14.0 million in the same quarter of the previous year. The factors primarily contributing to the outflow from investing activities during Q2 2025 were regular docking related to Energy Pace.
Net cash inflow from financing activities was NOK 52.5 million in Q2 2025, compared to a net cash outflow of NOK 4.1 million during Q2 2024. The cash outflow in Q2 2025 consists of the effects from financing and normal interest paid and debt repayments.
As of 30 June 2025, the Group's cash position amounted to NOK 17.6 million and increase from NOK 1.4 million in the beginning of the quarter. Future cash flows are expected to improve materially.

Golden Energy Offshore Services ASA (the "Company", together with its consolidated subsidiaries "the Group") is operating within the offshore service vessel business area.
The Group was incorporated at the end of 2013, the head office located in Ålesund and the Company`s shares are listed on Euronext Growth Oslo at the Oslo Stock Exchange.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, and do not include all the disclosures required by the IFRS® Accounting Standards for a complete set of financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024 included in the Company's Annual Report for the same period.
The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared based on a going concern assumption.
Rounding errors may occur in the report.
The Group currently controls nine vessels whereof two under full technical and commercial management and operates in the offshore service vessel business with offshore energy clients, both in the oil & gas and renewable energy market. The Group operates similar vessels and has only one operating and reportable segment.
The Group had seven PSVs and two OCVs under operation for the entire quarter. The additions to fixed assets in the first half year of 2025 are related to the docking and routine maintenance on machinery at predefined interval and class requirements for Energy Pace, Energy Swan and Energy Empress. The successful completion of periodic maintenance ensures that the equipment remains in optimal working condition and holds up its operational life.
The seven PSV vessels are part of a sale and leaseback agreement with Neptune Maritime Leasing Ltd. Due to the purchase obligation stipulated in the contract, the transaction is accounted for as a financing arrangement with the vessels remaining as part of the Company's fixed assets. See note 4 for more information.

In addition, it is management's intention to provide alternative performance measures (APMs) that are regularly reviewed by management to enhance the understanding of Group's performance, but not instead of the financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. The alternative performance measures presented may be determined or calculated differently by other companies. The principles for measuring the alternative performance measures are in accordance with internal reporting to Group Executive Management (chief operating decision makers) and are consistent with financial information used for assessing performance and allocating resources.
Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortization and impairment (EBITDA) are key financial parameters for the Group. This measure is useful to users of financial information in evaluating operating profitability on a more variable cost basis as it excludes depreciation. The EBITDA margin presented is defined as EBITDA divided by total revenues.
Adjusted Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortization and impairment (EBITDA) is based on EBITDA but adjusted for transactions of a non-recurring nature. Such non-recurring transactions include, but are not limited to restructuring costs, gains or losses related to sale of vessels, acquisition-related costs and other nonrecurring income and expenses.
Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) is useful to users with regard to the Group's financial information in evaluating operating profitability on the cost basis as well as the historic cost related to past business combinations and capex. The EBIT margin presented is defined as EBIT divided by total revenue.

Such non-recurring transactions include, but are not limited to restructuring costs, gains or losses related to sale of vessels, acquisition-related costs and other non-recurring income and expenses.
Net interest-bearing debt is non-current interest-bearing debt plus current interest-bearing liabilities less cash and cash equivalents. The measure helps the users of financial information assess the Group's liquidity situation.
Time charter equivalent (TCE) is a measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel. The TCE presented is defined as gross revenues during the relevant period divided by the number of available vessel days during the period. Gross revenue is defined as contractual charter rate multiplied with number of earning days in the period, exclusive other accounting effects.
