"We are satisfied with the financial performance in Q3 2025, showing solid results with a record-high operational EBITDA, driven by high activity across all business lines. During the quarter, we confirmed our strong market position with the preferred supplier announcement for the UK interconnector Eastern Green Link 3 and the firm order for the offshore power cable system for Bornholm Energy Island in Denmark. We also continued the advancement of our investments in production capacity and installation capabilities to meet the high demand for our power cable solutions."

Key messages Q3 2025

In the third quarter of 2025, NKT maintained the positive development, with organic growth of 11% and a record-high quarterly operational EBITDA of EUR 119m. During the quarter, two important commercial successes were achieved and in parallel, the ongoing capacity investment programmes progressed as planned. The financial outlook for 2025 is maintained, but NKT now expects to conclude the year in the upper end of the ranges.

In Q3 2025, the high activity level and overall satisfactory execution were maintained leading to increased revenue* and operational EBITDA across all three business lines. At group level, operational EBITDA amounted to EUR 119m – a record high for NKT. In Solutions, the development was driven by the high activity level and execution of the high-voltage order backlog, while Applications benefitted from the expanded medium-voltage capacity and continued robust

demand in the power distribution grid segment. Service & Accessories experienced a generally high activity level, supported by offshore repair jobs.

Free cash flow amounted to EUR -102m in Q3 2025, as the planned investments related to the capacity investment programmes more than offset cash flow from operations. The balance sheet remained robust, and at end-Q3 2025, net interest-bearing debt was EUR -640m.

During the third quarter of 2025, NKT announced two important commercial successes. In the UK, NKT was selected as preferred bidder for the HVDC interconnector Eastern Green Link 3. In Denmark, NKT signed a contract with Energinet to deliver a HVDC power cable system for the offshore interconnector linking the Bornholm Energy Island to the power grid of Zealand. The Danish project was added to the high-voltage order backlog, which at end-Q3 2025 was EUR 10.4bn.

NKT continued the stringent execution of the ongoing investment programmes to expand capacity. All projects across both Solutions and Applications progressed in

line with the plan during the quarter. Unchanged, NKT continues to expect the additional high-voltage capacity in Karlskrona, Sweden, and Cologne, Germany, as well as the new cable-laying vessel, to be operational from 2027, while the additional medium-voltage capacity in Asnaes, Denmark, and Esposende, Portugal, is still expected to be operational from 2026 and 2027 respectively.

The financial outlook for 2025 is maintained, but NKT now expects to conclude the year in the upper end of the ranges. Revenue (standard metal prices) is expected to be approximately EUR 2.65-2.75bn and operational EBITDA is expected to be approximately EUR 360-390m.

Financial review

Based on the continued high activity level across all three business lines, NKT delivered organic growth of 11%, and operational EBITDA amounted to a new quarterly company record of EUR 119m in Q3 2025. Free cash flow was negative EUR 102m, driven by capital expenditures related to the ongoing investment programmes to expand capacity, which progressed in line with the plan during the quarter.

Revenue growth in all three business lines

Revenue* in Q3 2025 increased to EUR 726m compared to EUR 657m in Q3 2024, corresponding to an organic growth of 11%. In Solutions, the growth was driven by a high activity level and overall satisfactory project execution. The increased revenue in Applications was due to continued robust demand in the power distribution grid segment, supported by additional medium-voltage production capacity. In Service & Accessories, revenue growth was driven by offshore repair work and a high activity level

in both segments of the business line.

Expressed in market prices, revenue in Q3 2025 was EUR 936m, compared to EUR 856m in Q3 2024.

Revenue* in the first three quarters of 2025 amounted to EUR 2,079m, an increase of EUR 283m compared to EUR 1,796m in the same period last year. Organic growth in the first three quarters was 12%, driven by contributions from all three business lines.

New record-high

operational EBITDA Operational EBITDA increased to a new record-high level of EUR 119m in Q3 2025 compared to EUR 93m in Q3 2024. All three business lines achieved higher operational EBITDA in the quarter, driven by the increased revenue and high activity level across the business. The operational EBITDA margin* was 16.4%, compared to 14.2% in Q3 2024.

Operational EBITDA in the first three quarters of 2025 amounted to EUR 305m compared to EUR 254m in the first three quarters of 2024.

In Q3 2025, EBIT amounted to EUR 87m, an increase of EUR 21m compared to EUR 66m reported in Q3 2024, as the higher operational EBITDA was partly offset by an increase in depreciations and amortisations.

Financial items and net result

Net financial items were an income of EUR 1m in Q3 2025 compared to an income of EUR 5m in Q3 2024, driven by interest income on the cash position.

In Q3 2025, earnings before tax amounted to EUR 88m, up from EUR 71m in Q3 2024. Tax was EUR 21m in the quarter, resulting in an effective tax rate of 24%. The net result from continuing operations was EUR 67m in Q3 2025, against EUR 57m in Q3 2024.

Free cash flow affected by investments

Cash flow from operating activities was EUR 68m in Q3 2025, compared to EUR -19m in Q3 2024, The positive development in operational EBITDA was partly offset by changes in working capital, which were negatively impacted by the phasing between milestone

payments and project execution in Solutions. At end-Q3 2025, working capital amounted to EUR -1.093m an increase of EUR 39m from EUR -1.132m at the end of Q2 2025.

Cash flow from investing activities amounted to EUR -170m in Q3 2025, compared to EUR -115m in Q3 2024. The increase was driven by investments in Solutions and Applications, where the capacity expansion projects progressed as planned. As communicated in Q4 2024. NKT expects to invest in total EUR ~2bn across the years 2025-2028. 2025 is expected to be the year with the highest investment level.

As a result of the investment level and the timing effects in working capital, free cash flow was EUR -102m compared to EUR -134m in O3 2024

RoCE slightly lower than Q2 2025

BoCF was 27% at the end of Q3 2025, slightly lower than the 30% reported at end-Q2 2025. Capital employed increased to EUR 1.388m in Q3 2025 from EUR 1.196m at end-Q2 2025 as a result of the ongoing investments and the increase in working capital. RoCE will continue to vary depending on the project mix in production, the timing of payments from customers, and a higher capital base from ongoing investments.

Liquidity, debt leverage, and equity

The negative free cash flow led to a reduction in the net cash position. Net interest-bearing debt amounted to EUR -640m at end-Q3 2025 compared to EUR -757m at end-Q2 2025. Net interest-bearing debt relative to operational EBITDA amounted to -1.6x at end-Q3 2025 compared to -2.0x at end Q2 2025.

At the end of Q3 2025, total available liquidity reserves amounted to FUR 1.278m. The favourable cash position will gradually be deployed as announced investments continue to progress through varying stages of execution. A position of financial strength must be maintained as NKT continues to progress on its growth journey.

Group equity, including the green hybrid security issued in September 2022, amounted to EUR 2.028m. At the end of the third quarter, the company's solvency ratio was 41%, compared to 40% at end-Q2 2025.

Sustainability

NKT continued to advance its sustainability strategy in the third quarter, focusing on reducing environmental impact, supporting the development and wellbeing of employees, and strengthening its governance framework.

Environment

In Q3, NKT joined the First Movers Coalition aluminium sector, committing that at least 10% of all primary aluminium procured annually will be low-carbon by 2030. Led by the World Economic Forum, the First Movers Coalition brings together global companies to accelerate the decarbonisation of hard-to-abate industries.

By joining the initiative, NKT actively contributes to creating early market demand for low-carbon technologies and supports innovation across the aluminium value chain. This step further aligns with NKT's long-term ambition to reduce scope 3 emissions and enhance the sustainability of its core products. The initiative supports NKT's strategic priority to continuously reduce the carbon intensity of its products and reinforces its role in creating early market demand for emerging climate technologies.

NKT also expanded its portfolio of sustainable products with the introduction of the new KSEV S5 switchgear termination. The solution is fully compatible with alternatives that are free of sulphur hexafluoride (SF6 ), a potent greenhouse gas, and complies with the CIGRE TB 784 standard, allowing customers greater flexibility in their grid projects. As part of the sustainability roadmap, the company intends to introduce additional SF6-free compatible accessory products to its portfolio over the coming years.

Social

During the third quarter, NKT reached a major milestone with the full rollout of SafeStart across all company sites. What began as a training programme has developed into a shared mindset around safety, helping employees recognise how states of mind such as rushing, fatigue, frustration or complacency can influence decision-making. SafeStart is strengthening NKT's safety culture both at work and beyond, providing a common foundation for more than 6,000 employees worldwide.

NKT also continued its focus on employee development. In Q3, 70 leaders began their journeys in the company's leadership programmes, and 10 new graduates joined the NKT Graduate Programme. Additionally, more than 100 colleagues in Karlskrona participated in training sessions on psychological safety and belonging.

NKT further supported the next generation of skilled professionals by sponsoring EuroSkills 2025 and supplying power cables for the electrical installation competition taking place in Denmark.

Governance

In Q3, NKT rolled out a new Supplier Code of Conduct to reinforce its commitments to integrity, sustainability, and ethical business practices. Aligned with the NKT Code of Conduct, it sets mandatory expectations for human rights, environmental responsibility, and responsible sourcing. The code serves as a key instrument to identify, prevent, and mitigate supplier-related risks and supports compliance with increasing market and regulatory requirements.

NKT joins First Movers Coalition

Revenue growth with high activity level and overall satisfactory execution

Revenue* for the Solutions business line was EUR 459m in Q3 2025 up from EUR 429m in Q3 2024, corresponding to organic growth of 8%. Growth was driven by high activity level across several projects in execution and previous investments made to increase organisational capabilities. The project execution was overall satisfactory in the quarter. NKT continued to progress and execute on several projects through varying stages of execution in Q3 2025. These projects included Champlain Hudson Power Express, Hornsea 3, East Anglia 3, Biscay Gulf, SuedLink, and SuedOstLink.

NKTs cable-laying vessel, NKT Victoria, was well-utilised during the quarter, resulting in consistently high revenue from installation activities.

Revenue measured in market prices amounted to EUR 526m in Q3 2025 compared to EUR 488m in Q3 2024.

In the first three quarters of 2025, revenue* for Solutions amounted to EUR 1,297m, an increase of EUR 168m compared to EUR 1,129m reported in the same period last year. Organic growth for the first three quarters of 2025 was 15%, driven by the same parameters as in Q3 2025.

Increased operational EBITDA

Operational EBITDA amounted to EUR 74m in Q3 2025 up from EUR 66m reported in Q3 2024. This corresponded to an operational EBITDA-margin of 16.0% compared to 15.5% in the same quarter last year. The improved profitability was driven by the higher revenue and slightly improved project mix, while the project execution was overall satisfactory during the quarter. On

a quarterly basis, profitability will continue to vary depending on the phasing of the projects in execution. NKT remains focused on managing the risk associated with the large high-voltage project portfolio.

Operational EBITDA in the first three quarters of 2025 was EUR 197m, compared to EUR 185m in the same period last year.

Commercial successes and increased highvoltage order backlog

The commercial activity level was high during Q3 2025, and NKT made two important commercial announcements.

Firstly, in the UK, NKT was selected as preferred bidder for the offshore high-voltage direct current 525 kV interconnector, Eastern Green Link 3, by the joint venture between

SSEN Transmission and National Grid Electricity Transmission. The connection will have an expected total route length of around 680 km, comprising both offshore and onshore cable sections. The transmission link is a key component in UK's investments to upgrade the electricity transmission network and create a resilient and efficient grid delivering clean and reliable energy throughout the UK.

Secondly, in Denmark, NKT signed a contract with Energinet to deliver a high-voltage 525 kV direct current power cable system for the offshore interconnector linking the innovative Bornholm Energy Island to the power grid on Zealand. The contract has a value of around EUR 650m (around EUR 600m at standard metal prices) and comprises design, manufacturing, and installation activities. The power cable system

High-voltage investments progressed as planned

NKT continued the execution of the high-voltage investments to expand capacity during Q3 2025, and the projects progressed as planned during the quarter. At the site in Karlskrona, Sweden, the intense execution continued across several workstreams. The installation of machinery progressed in both the new extrusion tower and the surrounding buildings. Progress on the harbour was also on track, with dredging work to increase water depth advancing as planned. On NKT's second cable-laying vessel, NKT Eleonora, construction also progressed as planned with several of the hull sections now being assembled and the construction of the cable turntables initiated. The timeline for new production capacity in Karlskrona and the new cable-laying vessel remain unchanged, with both expected to gradually become operational from 2027.

In Cologne, Germany, the investments in additional capacity and capabilities at the high-voltage factory also progressed as planned during the third quarter. Installation of machinery progressed during Q3 2025, and the production capacity is expected to be operational in 2027.

To support the ongoing investments and the upcoming production ramp-up in 2027, NKT is gradually adding costs and resources including hiring additional employees. Currently, this dilutes the operational

Organic growth and continued high revenue level

In Q3 2025, revenue* in Applications increased to EUR 208m, compared to EUR 183m in Q3 2024, corresponding to an organic growth of 12%. The positive development was mainly driven by continued robust demand in the power distribution grid segment supported by increased medium-voltage production capacity coming online at the beginning of 2025. The overall development in the construction-exposed segment remained subdued, and revenue in this segment was lower than in Q3 2024.

Revenue expressed in market prices amounted to EUR 351m in Q3 2025 compared to EUR 325m in the same period last year.

Revenue* in the first three quarters of 2025 was EUR 645m compared to EUR 511m in the first three quarters of 2024. Revenue was positively affected by the acquisition of SolidAl. Organic growth was 11%, driven by the robust demand in the power distribution grid segment.

Improved operational EBITDA of EUR 22m

The higher revenue driven by the power distribution grid segment led to an operational EBITDA of EUR 22m compared to EUR 14m in Q3 2024. Operational EBITDA in the same quarter last year was negatively affected by non-recurring effects from the integration of SolidAl including costs of approximately EUR 4m related to revaluation of inventories. The operational EBITDAmargin was 10.7% in Q3 2025 compared to 7.6% in the same quarter last year. The improvement was driven by the higher revenue due to robust demand in the power

distribution grid segment and the absence of non-recurring costs compared to the prior year.

Operational EBITDA in the first three quarters of 2025 amounted to EUR 71m up from EUR 51m in the same period last year.

Power distribution grid market remained robust

In Q3 2025, the Applications business line experienced varied developments across the market segments. Demand for medium-voltage cables remained robust and supported by the increased production capacity, drove increased volumes and revenue in the quarter. In the construction-exposed segment, the overall demand remained subdued, but it also varied between local markets and segments. This led to a lower revenue in this segment.

Investment programmes on track

During the quarter, the investments in expanding capacity at sites in Denmark and Portugal progressed as planned.

In Asnaes, Denmark, the construction of the additional medium-voltage capacity has entered the final stages, and the capacity is expected to come online from 2026, as planned.

The capacity expansion investments at the Esposende site in Portugal also progressed as planned during Q3 2025, and the additional capacity is still expected to be operational in 2027.

Market activity levels remained high in Q3 2025 in both the Service and the Accessories business.

Revenue in the first three quarters of 2025 amounted to EUR 238m up from EUR 198m in the first three quarters of 2024, equivalent to organic growth of 19%.

Increase in operational EBITDA and margins

Service & Accessories reported operational EBITDA of EUR 23m in Q3 2025, showing a significant increase compared to EUR 8m in Q3 2024. The operational EBITDA margin* increased to 23.4% compared to 12.8% in Q3 2024. The margin was mainly driven by increased profitability in Accessories and supported by a larger offshore repair project in Service.

Operational EBITDA in the first three quarters of 2025 amounted to EUR 50m, compared to EUR 19m in the first three quarters of 2024.

Satisfactory execution in Service

The Service business maintained a high activity level in Q3 2025, driven by a variety of activities including

maintenance projects, installation works, and both offshore and onshore repair projects. The high activity level and satisfactory execution supported the strong profitability in the quarter.

During the quarter, NKT successfully executed its recurring service business, maintenance and installation projects and completed a larger offshore repair job at the Beatrice wind farm in Scotland.

Increased revenue and profitability in Accessories

Revenue in Accessories increased in Q3 2025 driven by higher revenue from both medium-voltage and high-voltage accessories. Operational EBITDA and margin in the quarter both increased compared to the same quarter last year driven

by higher revenue and improved execution.

Ramp-up of accessories production capacity and capabilities continued during the quarter. Moreover, NKT invested in additional capacity to meet medium-voltage market demand at the site in Nordenham, Germany. The new test hall in Alingsas, Sweden is operational, with additional test capacity ramping up and expected to be fully phased in during Q4 2025.

1 Material accounting policy information

Accounting policies and new standards and interpretations

This condensed consolidated interim financial report for the period 1 January 2025 – 30 September 2025 is prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting', which has been approved by the EU and Danish disclosure requirements for interim reports for listed companies.

As of 1 January 2025, NKT adopted all relevant new or revised IFRS® Accounting Standards and IFRIC® Interpretations with effective date 1 January 2025 or earlier. The new or revised Standards and Interpretations did not affect recognition and measurement or result in any material changes to disclosures. Apart from this, the accounting policies applied are unchanged from those applied in the annual report for 2024.

The Group has not prematurely adopted any standards, interpretations, or amendments issued but not yet effective.

The interim report includes financial performance measures that are not defined according to IFRS Accounting Standards. These measures are considered to provide valuable information to stakeholders and Management. Since other companies might calculate these differently from NKT, they may not be comparable to the measures applied by other companies. These financial measures should therefore not be considered a replacement for performance measures as defined under IFRS Accounting Standards, but rather as supplementary information. Alternative performance measures are defined in Definitions.

Significant estimates and judgements

Significant accounting estimates and judgements are described in Note 1.3 in the annual report for 2024.

4 Contingent liabilities

As announced 28 August 2025 the NKT A/S (NKT) Czech subsidiary, NKT s.r.o. has received a "Request Before the Issuing of a Decision" (Request) from the Antimonopoly Office of the Slovak Republic, relating to an ongoing investigation into alleged anti-competitive practices in the Slovak cable market. In the Request, the Antimonopoly Office alleges that certain previous practices among several cable manufacturers, constitute infringements of Slovak and EU competition rules. The investigation involves a local cable association and 11 cable manufacturers, including NKT s.r.o. In its Request, the Antimonopoly Office has proposed fines for the parties involved, including NKT s.r.o., in relation to the activities under investigation in Slovakia. NKT contests the findings of the authorities and the

alleged infringements forming basis of its suggested fine and has submitted its reasoned defence to the authorities. NKT expects a final decision from the Antimonopoly Office within six to twelve months from now. If the Request is upheld, NKT will consider all available legal remedies, including appeal to the Slovak courts. In a related case, NKT s.r.o. is currently under investigation by the Office for the Protection of Competition in the Czech Republic along with five other cable manufacturers and is currently awaiting the outcome of the investigation. NKT regards this matter with the utmost seriousness, and the company remains committed to full cooperation with authorities and to upholding responsible and ethical business standards.

Group Management's statement

The Board of Directors and the Executive Management have today considered and adopted the interim report of NKT A/S for the period 1 January – 30 September 2025.

The interim report for the period 1 January – 30 September 2025, which has not been audited or reviewed by the company's auditor, has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting', as approved by the EU and Danish disclosure requirements for interim reporting by listed companies.

In our opinion the interim report gives a true and fair view of the Group's assets, liabilities, and financial position on 30 September 2025 and the results of the Group's activities and cash flow for the period 1 January – 30 September 2025.

Furthermore, in our opinion, the Management's review includes a fair account of the development and performance of the Group, the results for the period, and of the financial position of the Group. Other than that set forth in the interim report, no changes have occurred to the significant risks and uncertainty factors compared with those disclosed in the annual report for 2024.
