Notes: 1. Our targeted range for the fully loaded unlevel lifecycle spread to weighted average cost of capital (WACC), at the time of bidfinal investment decision (FID) whichever comes frst, for our offshore projects will be 150-300 boss points. The targeted range is not a hurdle rate and, consequently, there could be projects that deviate from the targeted range.

Financial update

Trond Westlie Chief Financial Officer

Solid operational earnings in 2024 in line with guidance

Strong underlying performance in 2024

Offshore sites delivered strong earnings growth driven by:

  • · Ramp-up of power generation from Greater Changhua 1 and 2a, South Fork, and Gode Wind 3
  • Higher wind speeds vs. 2023
  • · Higher prices on green certificates and inflation-indexed subsidies

Existing partnerships decreased driven by higher expected costs related to operations of transmission assets as well as lower earnings for construction agreements

Other costs higher vs. last year primarily driven by change in cost allocation methodology, with no impact on overall earnings

Onshore earnings increased driven by ramp-up generation

Earnings from CHP plants in line with last year

Lower earnings from gas activities as positive revaluation of our gas storage was not repeated to the same extent

EBITDA excl. new partnerships and cancellation fees

DKKbn, FY 2024

We expect to deliver EBITDA of DKK 25 - 28 bn in 2025

EBITDA excl. new partnerships and cancellation fees is expected to be DKK 25 - 28 bn in 2025

Offshore sites earnings expected to increase driven by:

  • · Ramp-up of generation from Greater Changhua 1 and 2a, Greater Changhua 2b and 4, South Fork, Gode Wind 3, and compensation from grid delay related to Borkum Riffgrund 3
  • Higher expected availability
  • · Inflation adjustments on ROC and CfD farms, partly offset by lower prices on merchant assets and a step down in subsidy level for Anholt (DK) and older German assets

Earnings from existing partnerships to increase, as negative effects from 2024 are not expected to be repeated in 2025

Increase in costs driven by higher share of development costs being expensed as well as higher fixed costs

Onshore generation capacity increased and higher expected availability, partly offset by impact from divestment of US onshore portfolio to ECP

Higher expected earnings from Bioenergy & Other driven by higher expected gas volumes from third party gas field (Tyra)

Guidance on 2025 EBITDA excl. new partnerships and cancellation fees

DKKbn

Our adjusted business plan is fully self-funded

] A

Notes: 1. Partnerships and divestments refers to any transation when asset project specific partnership with another party of filly divest one or more assets. The terminology thereby covers both full divestments, strategic joint operations and farm-downs. 2. Includes coupon payment for hybrids to minority shareholders in assets and as a planning assumption an estimate of dividend copacity.

We have progressed our partnership and divestment program and remain on track to deliver on the target

Partnership and divestment program progressing according to plan

Significant progress on our divestment program, with proceeds of DKK 22 bn announced during the year1

  • • Minority stake in four UK offshore assets
  • · Greater Changhua 4
  • · US onshore assets
  • French onshore platform

Numerous transactions in progress, where the most attractive ones will be executed.

Majority of proceeds will expectedly come from 50% farm-downs and partnership.

Continue to evaluate transactions based on three, non-prioritized objectives, each of which support our credit metric:

  • · Value creation
  • · Capital recycling
  • · Risk diversification

Total expected SPA proceeds over the period 2024-2026 DKKbn

We are fully committed to a solid investment grade rating

Measures already taken and implemented

DKK 7.3 bn net reversal of cancellation fees delivered related to better-than-assumed outcomes for contract settlements

DKK ~3 bn DEVEX reductions implemented through market prioritisation

DKK 1 bn fixed costs reduction implemented by 2026 compared to 2023, on a like-for-like basis, by simplifying our organisation and increasing our efficiency

DKK 22 bn of divestment proceeds executed in 2024 expecting further proceeds in the range of DKK 50 - 60 bn across 2025 and 2026

Additional measures to strengthen capital structure

Investment programme reduced by approx. 25 % compared to previous ambition

Cost efficiency measures

including rightsizing cost and organisation to reduced capacity ambition

Uplift from leveraging value of operational assets including generation optimisation and trading capabilities

Metric recovery on track despite headwinds

  • · Excl. cancellation fees in FFO for 2024, credit metric would be ~22 %
  • Recent adverse developments from higher costs and delay in rampup generation impacts credit metric in the short-term
  • · While improvement of credit metric will be slower-than-anticipated, trajectory towards targeted FFO/adj. NIBD above 30 % remains on track

Notes: 1. Numbers on CAPEX, investment proceeds, and DEVEX are compared to Capital Markets Day June 2023. 2. Funds from operations for 2024 reflects Ørsted definition, which includes minority dividend poyments. For 2026, FFO excludes minority dividends 3.

Key financial exposures from revenues in 2025-2030

  • Prioritize inflation-indexed revenue to protect against cost inflation and higher cost of capital
  • Inflation-indexed revenue more than covers the operational expenditures subject to inflation risk1
  • Fixed-rate debt used to de-risk fixed nominal revenue from assets in operation and under construction
  • Interest rate swaps used to lock in interest rates in advance of issuing fixed-rate debt

Remaining short-term merchant exposure after derisking through PPAs and fixed volume hedges

Risk management of interest rate- and inflation risk

Fixed-rate debt and hedges used to protect fixed nominal cash flows against interest rate increases Net inflation-linked operational cash flows in the period 2025-2030 protect against cost inflation

Hybrid capital in short

Hybrid capital can broadly be defined as funding instruments that combine features of debt and equity in a cost-efficient manner:

  • · Hybrid capital encompasses the creditsupportive features of equity and improves rating ratios
  • Perpetual or long-dated final maturity (1,000
    years for Ørsted)
  • · Absolute discretion to defer coupon payments
    and such deferrals do not constitute default nor trigger cross-default
  • · Deeply subordinated and only senior to common equity
  • Without being dilutive to equity holders (no ommership and in o to ogally motion ownership and voting right to dividend)

Due to hybrid's equity-like features, rating agencies assign equity content to the hybrids when calculating central rating ratios (e.g. FFO/NIBD).

The hybrid capital increases Ørsted's investment capacity and supports our growth strategy and rating target.

Ørsted has made use of hybrid capital to maintain our ratings at target level in connection with the merger with Danish power distribution and production companies back in 2006 and in recent years to support our growth in the offshore wind sector.

Accounting treatment

  • · Hybrid bonds are classified as equity
  • · Coupon payments are recognised in equity and do not have any effect on profit (loss) for the year
  • · Coupon payments are recognised in the statement of cash flows in the same way as dividend payments
  • · For further information see note 5,3 in the 2024 Annual Report

Installed renewable capacity

The installed renewable capacity is calculated as renewable capacity installed by Ørsted accumulated over time. We include all capacities after commercial operation date (COD) has been reached, and where we had an ownership share and an EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) role in the project. Capacities from acquisitions are added to the installed capacity. For installed renewable thermal capacity, we use the heat capacity, as heat is the primary outcome of thermal energy generation, and as bioconversions of the combined heat and power plants are driven by heat contracts.

Decided (FID'ed) renewable capacity

Decided (FID'ed) capacity is renewable capacity where a final investment decision (FID) has been made.

Awarded and contracted renewable capacity

The awarded renewable capacity is based on the capacities which have been awarded to Ørsted in auctions and tenders. The contracted renewable capacity is the capacity for which Ørsted has signed a contract or power purchase agreement (PPA) concerning a new renewable energy asset. We only include awarded/contracted capacity for projects we expect to develop.

Decarbonisation

We continue working towards our science-based net-zero target by 2040 (scope 1-3). Key initiatives include:

  • Shutting down our last coal-fired heat and power plant as a key milestone to meet our scope 1-2 emissions intensity reduction target of 98 % by 2025 (from 2006)
  • Signing a large-scale supply agreement with Dillinger, which in part enables Dillinger to invest in a low emission steel production route, reducing their company emissions by 55 % in 2030
  • Collaborated with Siemens Gamesa to produce wind turbine blades using recycled glass fibers from decommissioned blades – the industry's first successful reuse of such materials.

Biodiversity

We continue working towards our ambition that all new renewable energy projects commissioned from 2030 must have a net-positive biodiversity impact. Key initiatives include:

  • Launching a new framework for holistically measuring our impact on biodiversity
  • Developed a lower-noise method for installing offshore wind foundations, successfully tested in Germany, reducing construction noise by up to 99% to better protect marine life.
  • Partnered with the World Economic Forum to launch the Responsible Renewables Infrastructure initiative, uniting the renewable energy industry to address impacts on biodiversity and local communities.

Community impact

We are committed to supporting a just transition through decent jobs and thriving communities. Key initiatives include:

  • Developed a US workforce program certifying 335 union workers in New York, Rhode Island, and Connecticut for offshore work, supporting local jobs and education in renewable energy.
  • Announced the first Hornsea 3 Community Benefit Fund awards, supporting initiatives to enhance local community well-being and resilience.
  • Developed a company-wide method for addressing community grievances and finalised internal guidelines for 'free, prior, and informed consent' (FPIC) to ensure respectful engagement with Indigenous communities.

Ørsted has been ranked the most sustainable energy company in the world by Corporate Knights' 2025 Global 100 index.

GLOBALLY RECOGNISED SUSTAINABILITY LEADER

Ørsted's strategic aspiration is to be the world's leading green energy major. A key pillar in this aspiration is to be a globally recognised sustainability leader.

We are committed to develop, construct, and operate our assets in a sustainable way.

This enables us to mitigate risks and deliver more resilient energy projects that also drive a positive change for society and nature.

To drive this, we have three strategic sustainability priorities: decarbonisation (incl. circularity and responsible sourcing of raw materials), biodiversity, and community impact.
