Cadeler-Q1’26 rst take: Slower than expected quarter, guidance reiterated-05/20/2026

26 EBITDA of EUR 47m 24% / 52% below consensus / PAS on slower than expected utilization. This runs through the P&L with net

pro t similarly below. This is driven by low utilization of 47.6% and downtime / rampup ahead

• NIBD of EUR 1360m, higher than our estimate with than expected EBITDA offset by lower capex and working capital (likely timing)

• 2026 EBITDA guidance reiterated at EUR 420-510m (midpoint 465m) with both us and consensus slightly above this

• The company raised EUR 175m to nance two foundation installation newbuilds plus a conversion of a scour protection vessel in March.
