Statement from the CEO
The DOF Group is delivering a good start to 2025 with strong project execution and a solid first quarter EBITDA of USD 158 million, representing an improvement from Q4 2024 and close to 40% increase from first quarter last year.
The performance is, as expected, impacted by the integration of the DOF Denmark fleet to the DOF commercial platform with multiple vessel mobilisations and transits affecting the utilisation. The DOF Denmark EBITDA contribution for the quarter was USD 27 million and the utilisation of the fleet was 68%. We remain confident that the contribution from the DOF Denmark fleet will improve through 2025.
We have secured multiple large contracts in the first quarter utilising the inhouse capabilities of the subsea regions and the large fleet of high-end vessels. This together with the strong backlog and the continued high tendering activity gives confidence in the continued performance of the group. The EBITDA guidance range for 2025 is narrowed to USD 730 – 790 million.
The refinancing process was concluded in March as planned and we look forward to making our first quarterly dividend payment of USD 0.3 per share in June. We expect significant backlog additions in the next months to further increase earnings visibility. When the increased visibility materialises, we will target the upper end of the communicated leverage range of 1.5 – 2.0x NIBD / LTM EBITDA and thus see potential to increase the quarterly dividends going forwards by returning excess cash to our shareholders.
Please see enclosed 1st quarter Financial Report 2025 and presentation.

DOF has announced an investment in a first of its kind, modular cable repair spread designed to transform how offshore wind operators respond to cable faults. Uniquely engineered for compatibility across our fleet, the system offers an industry-first combination of fleet-wide flexibility, road transportability, and rapid deployment capabilities.
Developed in collaboration with engineering specialists, Royal IHC, the spread allows for mobilisation and commissioning within 48 hours, using just 12 lifting operations. A vast improvement on traditional fixed systems, which are often limited to single-vessel availability.
“This is a genuine step change in how the industry can respond to cable fault downtime,” said Dag Raymond Rasch, Executive Vice President DOF Atlantic.
“Our cable repair spread reflects DOF’s ability to rapidly address clients’ needs. We’re not just adapting oil and gas equipment – this system has been purpose-built for offshore wind, with flexibility, efficiency and uptime at its core.”
The new system includes a compact quadrant handler, tensioner, roller tables, and over-boarding chute – all designed for plug-and-play operation. Its minimal footprint improves deck efficiency while maintaining cable integrity through all lay and recovery modes.
This follows the successful completion of a high-profile subsea cable repair project for Shell in the Netherlands in 2024, where DOF deployed its owned vessels and existing repair spread to restore service with minimal interruption.
“By owning both the vessels and the modular repair spread, DOF offers clients a level of control and responsiveness that’s otherwise difficult to achieve,” added Dag Raymond, “Improving response times and reduced downtime for clients – especially under emergency conditions.”
DOF has already secured multiple frame agreements with leading offshore wind operators in Europe, the USA, and APAC, reinforcing the global relevance of its cable repair service line with a dedicated fleet, modular technology, and proven operational pedigree.
