John Evans, Chief Executive Officer, said:

Subsea7 delivered 27% growth in Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2025
driven by a strong performance in Subsea and Conventional and Renewables. Group
revenue remained at a high level while our Adjusted EBITDA margin increased by
more than
460 bps year-on-year. This was the result of both solid execution, particularly
in Subsea and Conventional, as well as the continued mix-shift of our backlog
towards contracts with a more favourable risk-reward balance.

The resilience of our strategy - focused on long-cycle energy projects with
advantaged economics - was demonstrated in the third quarter with order intake
of $3.8 billion representing a book-to-bill of over 2 times, equating to a book-
to-bill of 1.4 times for the first nine months of 2025. The award in August of a
third subsea scope for the Sakarya gas development in Türkiye was a strong
endorsement of the ability of our 3,000 engineers and project managers, as well
as our experienced offshore crews, to leverage our differentiated solutions to
create value for clients.

We expect the positive momentum in our business to continue supported by a
record backlog approaching $14 billion as well as active tendering on a strong
portfolio of future opportunities.

Third quarter project review
Within Subsea and Conventional, our vessels remained busy across the world,
achieving a high level of utilisation. Seven Vega spent the majority of the
quarter in Norway, installing pipe-in-pipe at Yggdrasil. Seven Oceans, Seven
Navica and Seven Arctic were also active in Norway, at Irpa and Øst Frigg. In
addition, in September, Seven Navica worked at Murlach and Bittern-Belinda in
the UK. Seven Borealis and Seven Pacific continued working in Angola. In the
third quarter, the second of our four pipelay support vessels (PLSVs) in Brazil
- Seven Waves - commenced a new three-year contract for Petrobras, following the
award in 2024. The final two PLSVs have rolled onto new contracts during the
fourth quarter.

In Renewables, we delivered a robust financial result despite challenging market
conditions. Seaway Strashnov successfully completed the installation of all 87
monopiles at Dogger Bank C in the UK, while Seaway Alfa Lift made good progress
adding transition pieces. After a yard stay for a crane repair, Seaway Ventus
continued work at the East Anglia THREE project in the UK. In August, Seaway
Aimery transited to the US where, after 20 days on standby pending the lifting
of a stop-work order, it began laying cables at the Revolution project.

Third quarter financial review
Revenue was $1.8 billion, in line with the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA of
$407 million equated to a margin of 22%, up from 18% in Q3 2024. After
depreciation and amortisation of $175 million, net operating income was $232
million, equating to a margin of 13%, up from 9% in the prior year period. After
net foreign exchange losses of $38 million, net finance costs of $12 million and
taxation of $73 million, net income was $109 million.

Net cash generated from operating activities in the third quarter was $283
million, including a $82 million unfavourable movement in net working capital.
Net cash used in investing activities was $34 million mainly related to
purchases of property, plant and equipment, while net cash used in financing
activities was $123 million including lease payments of $79 million. During the
quarter, cash and cash equivalents increased by $132 million to $546 million
and, at 30 September 2025, net debt was $505 million, including lease
liabilities of $421 million. This represents a significant improvement both
sequentially, from $695 million in Q2 2025, and year-on-year, from $857 million
in Q3 2024.

Third quarter order intake was $3.8 billion comprising new awards of $3.3
billion and escalations of $0.5 billion resulting in a book-to-bill ratio of
2.1 times. Backlog at the end of September was $13.9 billion, of which $2.0
billion is expected to be executed in the remainder of 2025, $6.0 billion in
2026 and $5.9 billion in 2027 and beyond.

Guidance

We anticipate that revenue in 2025 will be between $6.9 and 7.1 billion, while
our Adjusted EBITDA margin is expected to be within a range from 20 to 21%.

Based on our firm backlog of contracts for execution in 2026, we expect revenue
to be within a range of $7.0 to 7.4 billion, while our Adjusted EBITDA margin is
expected to be approximately 22%.
