Operational Update

Ocean Sun continues to advance its position as a leading technology provider in the floating solar (FPV) sector, building on a strong foundation laid in the first half of 2025. The company's strategic focus on reservoir and nearshore markets is yielding tangible results, generating a growing pipeline, strengthened leadership, and promising project execution.

Financial results

Ocean Sun's Q2 2025 revenue totalled NOK 0.2 million (Q2 2024: NOK 2.4 million) and relates to prefeasibility reports delivered. Additionally, research grants amounting to NOK 2.1 million were recognized during the quarter (Q2 2024: NOK 2.1 million). The company reported an operating loss of NOK 5.3 million in Q2 2025 (Q2 2024: NOK 4.7 million).

Net financial income for Q2 2025 was NOK 0.5 million (Q2 2024: NOK 0.6 million), primarily due to interest income from cash and cash equivalents. The net cash flow for the quarter was NOK -7.1 million (Q2 2024: NOK -1.6 million), largely resulting from the operating loss in addition to a negative working capital effect. During the quarter, the company also set aside NOK 450 thousand as guarantee for a new office rental agreement entered in Q1.

Total operating income for the first half of 2025 reached NOK 3.8 million (H1 2024: NOK 10.0 million), with research grants contributing NOK 3.6 million. The company recorded an operating loss of NOK 9.8 million in the first six months of 2025 (H1 2024: - NOK 6.7 million).

Net financial income for the first half of 2025 was NOK 1.0 million, mainly driven by interest income from cash and cash equivalents. The net cash flow for the first half of 2025 amounted to NOK -12.4 million (H1 2024: NOK -9.4 million), primarily due to the operating loss and an increase in working capital.

As of June 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents stood at NOK 17.2 million, with NOK 0.9 million in restricted funds. The equity ratio was 76%, and the company had no interest-bearing debt.

Positive development to the pipeline, improved operational excellence and continued technological advancements has led Management and the Board to start the process of acquiring funds for further expansion. With positive and committed owners, we are confident this will be successfully executed.

Installed projects and tech update

Together with partners, Ocean Sun's patented technology has been utilized in 13 projects across seven countries, reaching a total installed capacity of 4.2 MWp. These installations span a diverse range of environments, showcasing the adaptability and robustness of Ocean Sun's floating solar technology. They also provide a unique opportunity to showcase and further innovate on our FPV technology.

Through our partner, Alotta, Ocean Sun now has four active systems delivering green electricity to reduce the carbon footprint of the aquaculture industry in Norway and Chile. The collaboration has gained strong traction, with two new systems added in the first half of 2025, Further, new wave modeling conducted together with independent third parties confirm Ocean Sun's system can withstand wave heights up to five meters, enabling deployment in more exposed coastal areas. This opens for new markets, such as ports, island communities and resorts that are in dire need of renewable energy.

The 2 MWp full-scale demonstrator in Banja, Albania, developed in collaboration with Statkraft, continues to serve as a cornerstone for innovation. In H1 2025, we began piloting the worlds first autonomous PV model cleaning robot.

The robot will be tested in Albania, providing key knowledge and verification of a system that will guarantee the coolest and the cleanest PV panels in the industry.

A first of its kind

The 2 MWp system in the Maldives is under Ukraine's energy recovery. construction and making steady progress. The installation process is slower than originally planned due to the remote site, limited machinery available and required concern about not disturbing the day-to-day operations of the resort. Current estimate is that floating solar, along with batteries and other microgrid equipment will be commissioned during Q3. Once installed, the system will be the first of its kind and a remarkable demonstrator of our capabilities towards resorts, ports and island communities.

Backlog

Ocean Sun's current backlog consists of three projects, where license agreements have been signed. The backlog includes a project in Greece, one in India and one in Taiwan.

Pipeline and market outlook

Ocean Sun enters H2 2025 with a clear strategic direction, a robust pipeline, and enhanced organizational capabilities. The company remains focused on:

  • Scaling deployments in reservoir and nearshore segments.
  • Enhancing technology durability and competitiveness.
  • Strengthening project execution and customer experience.

The near-term pipeline amount to 30+ MWp and comprise 12 projects that we believe have the potential of materializing within the upcoming 12 months. Further, the extended pipeline constitutes several GWp and continue to see important maturation. An example is the MoU signed with Zhytomyr City to assess a future 25 MWp floating solar project supporting

Engineering and feasibility studies

Engineering and site optimized designs are an integral part of an Ocean Sun delivery and for many projects a key milestone in the sales process. Before each project, Ocean Sun prepares a feasibility study and a detailed design for the site. This is either covered by the license agreement or sold as a separate prefeasibility study, to frontload cash flows and stress test customer interest. In the first half of 2025, Ocean Sun has been working on several such reports, including for projects in Taiwan, Qatar and India.

Governmental grants continue to be important for Ocean Sun to bridge market and technology uncertainty and further develop our solution. During 2025, Ocean Sun has ongoing projects with the Research council of Norway, Innovation Norway and the European Commission. Further we have received more market centered grants from Nopef for market launch initiatives in India and for market initiatives in Qatar.

Total grants amounted to 3.6 million in H1 2025.

Organisation and working environment

The onboarding of Kristin Husby Mork as Chief Commercial Officer in April 2025 completes the restructuring of the management team. However, as David Knutsen, will leave Ocean Sun in October, the process has started to replace him as CPO.

A bold solution to our global energy needs

Inspired by nature, our patented technology is based on solar modules mounted on hydro-elastic membranes and offers cost and performance benefits not seen in any other floating PV system today.

With offices in Oslo, Singapore and Shanghai, Ocean Sun is embarking on its vision to become the world's leading technology provider of floating solar.

The need for floating PV

According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) "solar PV is becoming the lowest-cost option for new electricity generation in most of the world". The IEA also forecasts that we will need 5,000 GWp of installed solar capacity by 2030 of installed solar capacity to reach the Net Zero Goals. This would require extensive areas of land, equivalent to almost 15 million football pitches. Finding suitable deployment space, close to existing grid and energy consumption is therefore an increasing problem for developers around the world.

On the other hand, water covers 71 per cent of our planet's surface, and a majority of the world's densely populated areas, the electricity demand centres, are located close to water.

By utilising these water assets, floating PV can facilitate a new era of large-scale solar power generation.

Studies indicate that covering only 10 per cent of the world's hydropower reservoirs with floating solar would produce 4,000 GWp of solar capacity.

Co-locating with hydropower also enables the use of existing grid infrastructure, thus reducing the overall investment cost. Adding natural lakes, rivers and the ocean to this, the potential for floating solar becomes unlimited.

However, to unlock the full potential of floating solar, the industry needs a technology that is both cheaper and more reliable, in order to reduce the investment gap between floating solar and ground-mounted PV.

Ocean Sun's solution has this potential and offers increased robustness and lower cost, bringing CAPEX closer to that of groundmounted PV.
