- Bioenergy & Other decreased from less heat generation due to warm weather
Net profit DKKbn

Net profit of DKK -3.4 bn
• Impacted by non-cash effect from divestment of stake in Hornsea 3 and impairments from lease suspension orders (DKK 0.6 bn) and sale of European Onshore business (DKK 1.6 bn)
Adjusted ROCE1


Adjusted ROCE1 of 8.4 %
- Decrease driven by higher capital employed into assets under construction
- Reported ROCE of 5.4 % in 2025, below expected level primarily due to impairments

Net impairment loses of DKK 3.6 bn
Impairment losses in 2025 mainly driven by:
- 50 % tariff on steel and aluminium and the reciprocal tariffs that were imposed in the US in 2025 (DKK 3.7 billion)
- Impact from the stop-work order on Revolution Wind in August 2025 (DKK 0.5 billion) in Q3 2025
- Impact from the lease suspension orders issued in December 2025 to Revolution Wind and Sunrise Wind (DKK 0.6 billion) in Q4 2025
- Signed agreement to divest European Onshore business. This has resulted in an impairment loss (DKK 1.6 billion) in Q4 2025 on goodwill
- Based on decision to discontinue Hornsea 4 in its current form, an impairment (DKK 0.5 billion) was recognised in Q2 2025
- Partly offset by a decrease in interest rate across our US portfolio (DKK -2.7 billion) and positive market price developments (DKK -0.5 billion)

Key financial exposures from revenues in 2026-2030
Inflation-indexed revenue

Fixed nominal revenue Merchant revenue


- 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

Hybrid capital in short
Hybrid capital can broadly be defined as funding instruments that combine features of debt and eaulty 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 triager cross-default
- Deeply subordinated and only senior to common equity
- Without being dilutive to equity holders (no ownership and voting rights, no right to dividend).
Due to hybrid's equity-like features, rating agencies assign 50% 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 since 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 2025 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 offshore wind capacity
The awarded offshore wind capacity is the offshore wind capacities awarded to Ørsted in auctions and tenders

Taking action for a resilient renewable energy transition
Industry-leading sustainability initiatives ESG rating performance
Decarbonisation
We continue working towards our 2040 science-based net-zero target (scope 1-3). Key initiatives include:
- Following the phase-out of coal in 2024, achieving our 2025 targets of a 98 % reduction in scope 1-2 emissions intensity (from 2006) and a 99 % renewable energy share.
- Strengthening our internal net-zero roadmap and climate governance, outlining responsibilities and actions to be taken prior to 2030 to make progress towards delivering on our 2040 target.
- Continuing supply chain collaboration for lower-emission solutions, including our partnership with Dillinger to secure access to its first batches of lower-emission steel.




Biodiversity
We continue working towards our ambition that all new renewable energy projects commissioned from 2030 will have a net-positive biodiversity impact. Key initiatives include:
- Continuing biodiversity efforts, including ReCoral and seabird habitat restoration in Taiwan, while developing the first initiatives for projects commissioned after 2030.
- Demonstrating the positive biodiversity impacts from our blue bond through the publication of our first public Summarised Blue Bond Impacts
- Completing Step 1 (Assess) of SBTN's five-step process for setting science-based targets for nature by submitting our preliminary assessment for validation.


Community impact
We are committed to providing tangible benefits to local communities. Key initiatives include:
- Expanding workforce development efforts by signing a Memorandum of Understanding with TAFE Gippsland and Federation University to support the growth of Australia's offshore wind workforce.
- Extending the Choczewo Community Benefit Fund in Poland for two years to support local projects focused on community development and environmental protection.
- Advancing community investments in the UK through a partnership with Horizon Youth Zone in Grimsby and our Community Benefit Funds, supporting nearly 900 community-led projects.
