Moreld ASA: First quarter 2026 results

Stavanger, 7 May 2026: In the first quarter, Moreld delivered revenues of NOK 1.4 billion and an EBITDA result of negative NOK 93 million. As projected, the results reflect a temporary reduction in project activity, and a significant uptick in activity and margins is expected from Q2. The full-year EBITDA guidance of NOK 0.7-0.9 billion is reiterated.

Supported by a strong balance sheet and solid cash generation, the board of directors has resolved to increase the quarterly dividend distributions from NOK 0.42 to NOK 0.50 per share from Q1 2026.

"Following a softer Q1, both our vessels have now returned to offshore operations. Moreld is entering a phase of increasing activity supported by large, confirmed projects and a strong backlog. While global uncertainty persists, our outlook remains strong, supported by activity on the Norwegian Continental Shelf and a solid tender pipeline," says CEO Geir Austigard.
