Meudon (France), February 27th, 2026

Vallourec, a world leader in premium seamless tubular solutions, announces today its results for the fourth quarter 2025. The Board of Directors of Vallourec SA, meeting on February 26th 2026, approved the Group’s fourth quarter 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements. 

Fourth Quarter 2025 Results

  • Q4 Group EBITDA of €214 million, strong 21% EBITDA margin
  • Excellent total cash generation of €177 million
  • Around €650 million distribution to shareholders targeted by August 2026a
  • Q1 2026 Group EBITDA expected to range between €165 million and €195 million
  • Resilient US customer demand while imports continue to decline
  • Early signs of activity rebound in key Middle East markets

HIGHLIGHTS

Fourth Quarter 2025 Results

  • Group EBITDA of €214 million, up 2% sequentially, EBITDA margin remained strong at 21%
    • Tubes EBITDA per tonne of €548 down (12%) sequentially reflecting negative mix effects
    • Mine & Forest EBITDA at €38 million increasing sequentially by 10%, reflecting higher iron ore market prices partially offset by seasonally lower volumes
  • Adjusted free cash flow of €204 million; total cash generation of €177 million – aided by robust collections and inventory management
  • Ended the period with a net cash position of €39 million, improving by €179 million sequentially

OUTLOOK

First Quarter 2026 Group EBITDA is expected to range between €165 million and €195 million:

  • In Tubes, EBITDA per tonne is expected to be broadly in-line with the Q4 2025 level, while volumes are expected to be below the Q4 2025 level.
  • In Mine & Forest, production sold is expected to be around 1.4 million tonnes.

Full Year 2026 results are expected to be influenced by the following dynamics:

  • North America Tubes:
    • Sustained strength in sales volumes thanks to Vallourec’s market share gains during 2025
    • A slight near-term decrease in US market prices, with improving industry supply-demand conditions leading to potential improvement later in the year
  • International Tubes:
    • Lower sales volumes in H1 2026 due to slower bookings in H2 2025
    • An activity recovery in key Middle Eastern markets setting the stage for higher second half volumes
    • Broadly stable market pricing versus the second half of 2025, with discrete customer contracts driving selective price upside
  • Slightly lower year over year iron ore production sold (approximately 5.5 million tonnes) due to an improved production process focusing on value over volume

Philippe Guillemot, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, declared: 

“Vallourec delivered robust results once again in the fourth quarter. EBITDA was above the midpoint of our guidance and we produced a solid 21% EBITDA margin. We converted over 80% of EBITDA to cash – a further demonstration of our consistent improvement in working capital management and operational efficiency. After paying over €370 million to our shareholders in 2025, we returned our balance sheet to a net cash position in December.

“From this solid financial base, we will deliver on our commitment to be one of the most shareholder friendly companies in our peer group. We are targeting returns to shareholders of approximately €650 million between January and August 2026, a nearly €280 million increase versus 2025. We have adopted a balanced distribution framework, limiting warrant dilution through buybacks, growing distributions through a targeted interim dividend payment of €1.75 per share in Augustb, and maintaining a defensive balance sheet.

“Reflecting on our 2025 results, I am pleased with the many milestones we have achieved. After reaching zero net debt at the end of 2024, we paid a substantial dividend to shareholders for the first time in a decade in 2025. We significantly narrowed the profitability gap with our primary peer to the lowest level since we embarked on the New Vallourec Plan in early 2022. Finally, our consistent improvement in profitability and financial resilience was recognized with Investment Grade credit ratings across all three rating agencies.

“Our focus in 2026 turns to profitable growth through targeted R&D and capital investments to solve the energy challenges of today and tomorrow. In doing so, we will remain committed to our core principles of value over volume and operational excellence. We are investing in value-added capacity enhancements, including our new high-torque threading line in the US and advanced coating capabilities like our Cleanwell® solution. Meanwhile, we are progressing our ambitions in New Energies, with a recently-announced partnership with XGS Energy in the advanced geothermal arena, and a memorandum of understanding with Baker Hughes in the hydrogen space. We are seeing particularly strong momentum in geothermal markets as the industry searches for ways to deliver clean baseload power to meet rapidly growing energy demand, which is accentuated by rapid growth in artificial intelligence and energyintensive data centers.

“In the US, our assets remain highly-utilized and recent booking activity remains strong. Industry pricing has softened slightly, but we are encouraged by the downward trend in imports due to Section 232 tariffs and the resilience of our customers’ activity. In International markets, commercial activity remained subdued in the second half of 2025. In the Middle East we are seeing signs of acceleration – especially in markets with higher levels of unconventional activity.

“We see potential for activity to increase in the second semester and beyond as the oil market rebalances, gas-related activity increases and the acceleration of depletion necessitates investments to maintain and grow production.”

Fourth quarter and full year results 2025

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Q4 EBITDA USD 47.8 million and operating cashflow of USD 107.7 million
  • 2025 EBITDA USD 240.1 million and operating cashflow of USD 409.2 million
  • Equity ratio 30.2% and USD 634.5 million in available liquidity at year-end 2025
  • Q4 dividend USD 0.18 per share equivalent to USD 33.2 million
  • 2025 dividend USD 67.0 million, fifth consecutive year of increased shareholder distribution
  • BW Opal commissioning progressing, targeting 100% production within Q2 2026
  • BW Opal transitioning to volume-based rate from mid-March, practical completion expected in Q2 2026
  • Limited strategic review ongoing
  • Full-year 2026 EBITDA guidance in the range of USD 340-370 million

Commissioning and production ramp-up for BW Opal FPSO continued with BW Offshore receiving a commissioning rate equal to 60% of the contractual dayrate. Commissioning was extended in the fourth quarter by two connection failures on the utilities and firewater seawater piping systems and a campaign to strengthen similar connections across the FPSO. In early 2026, compressor dry-gas seal replacements have impacted production regularity. BW Opal is targeting to reach 100% production capacity within the second quarter of 2026. BW Offshore will transition to a production volume-based dayrate in mid-March, with revenue recognition commencing at that time. Formal practical completion and commencement of the 15-year fixed contract is also expected in the second quarter.

The Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of USD 0.18 per share. The shares will trade ex-dividend from 4 March 2026. Shareholders recorded in VPS following the close of trading on Oslo Børs on 5 March 2026, will be entitled to the distribution, payable on or around 13 March 2026. The total dividend for 2025 amounts to USD 67.0 million (USD 0.37 per share) equal to 50% of net income for the year. This is an increase of 12% compared to 2024.

“In 2025, BW Offshore achieved key operational and strategic milestones with first gas from BW Opal, high commercial uptime from the fleet and strong cash flow generation. We also delivered a dividend equal to 50% of net income marking the fifth consecutive year of increased shareholder distributions,” said Marco Beenen, CEO of BW Offshore. “With BW Opal ramping up production, we expect EBITDA growth in 2026. We continue to advance the prestigious Bay du Nord FPSO project with Equinor and with BW Elara we progress growth opportunities within floating transition solutions.”

For 2026, BW Offshore expects to report EBITDA in the range of USD 340-370 million. The outlook reflects firm backlog for BW Adolo and BW Catcher and expected revenue recognition from BW Opal following the transition to volume-based rate from mid-March.

On 5 December 2025, BW Offshore announced the engagement of an external adviser to assist in a strategic review. The process is a response to incoming interest for the Company considering the strong FPSO market. The Company’s main strategic focus of growing the FPSO business supported by an optimised capital structure and strong partnerships remains unchanged.

FINANCIALS
EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2025 was USD 47.8 million (USD 43.9 million in Q3 2025), reflecting strong operational performance from the fleet. EBIT for the fourth quarter was USD 27.5 million (USD 22.5 million).

Net financial items were negative at USD 0.5 million (positive USD 6.7 million).

Loss from equity-accounted investments was USD 1.9 million (loss of USD 3.6 million), including a valuation adjustment on the Barossa finance receivable related to changes in timing of future cash flows.

Tax expense was USD 1.0 million (USD 2.3 million).

Net profit for the fourth quarter was USD 24.1 million (USD 23.3 million).

On 31 December 2025, total equity was USD 1 293.0 million (USD 1 273.9 million), and the equity ratio was 30.2% (30.5%).

As a result of strong cash generation from the fleet and asset sales in recent quarters, the Company was net cash positive by USD 211.8 million (USD 186.6 million) as of 31 December 2025.

Available liquidity was USD 634.5 million, excluding consolidated cash from BW Ideol and including USD 220 million available under the undrawn revolving credit facility.

FPSO OPERATIONS
The FPSO fleet continued to deliver stable operations in the quarter with a weighted average fleet uptime of 100% (98.7% in Q3 2025).

On 31 December 2025, the firm and probable backlog measured by expected cashflow from operations amounted to USD 2.2 billion (USD 2.1 billion).

FPSO PROJECTS
BW Offshore continued to progress all technical and commercial discussions on schedule for the Bay du Nord FPSO under the Heads of Agreement signed with Equinor in September. The pre-FEED and bridging phases have been completed, and the FEED is planned to commence in the first half of 2026, subject to final agreements with Equinor. The process for ordering major long-lead equipment packages is underway and the Company expects to open a local office in St. John’s, Canada, during the first half of 2026.

FLOATING TRANSITION SOLUTIONS
BW Offshore now holds 68% of BW Ideol following a strategic partnership with Holcim in December. This transaction, which includes a capital increase, funds operations for the upcoming year. Operationally, the three floaters for the 30 MW Eolmed wind pilot project were completed with turbines and are now enroute for connection and commissioning. Additionally, the Fos3F project, for developing a fabrication line for concrete floating foundations, secured combined grants of EUR 127 million from the EU Innovation Fund and the French Government.

The BW Elara joint venture, created by BW Offshore and an affiliate BW Group to design and build Floating Desalination Units (FDUs), progressed towards investment decision for the first unit in 2026. In parallel, there was high commercial activity across target markets. The FDUs will be delivered through a flexible service supply model.

OUTLOOK
BW Offshore expects that the current fleet will continue to generate significant cash flow in the time ahead, supported by the firm contract backlog. Furthermore, growing energy demand continues to drive demand for developing new FPSO projects with long production profiles, low break-even costs and reduced emissions.

Increased project complexity and higher construction costs necessitates financial structures with significant day rate prepayments during the construction period for new lease and operate projects. Alternatively, oil and gas companies may finance and own FPSOs, relying on FPSO specialists for the design, construction and installation scope, combined with operation and maintenance services. BW Offshore is well positioned to offer both solutions.

After an extended period with FPSO project sanctions lagging expectations there is a historically high number of projects at various stages of maturity, reflected in increased FEED and tendering activity. The Company continues to selectively evaluate new projects that meet required return targets, offer contracts with no residual value risk after firm period, and provide a financeable structure with strong national or investment grade counterparties.

BW Offshore expects that a number of the FPSO projects the Company is engaging with will reach a final investment decision over the next 12 to 36 months.

Current market dynamics and the high competence levels required for project execution should enable better risk-reward and improved margins for FPSO companies going forward. Furthermore, BW Offshore is evolving its project execution model focused on strong partnerships for the design, engineering and construction phases and overall strengthened risk management. The same principles are also applied to new business opportunities within floating transition solutions.

@ Crypto Insider

In the current crypto exchange environment, visibility is often mistaken for growth. Platforms measure success by follower counts, trending hashtags, and influencer endorsements. Yet many of those metrics are increasingly diluted by automated engagement and short-lived hype cycles.

Against this backdrop, Bitmaker is pursuing a different path.

The exchange, which recently launched in Vietnam, is expanding at a pace that industry observers describe as unusually strong for a relatively new platform. Yet it remains largely absent from global social media trends. Instead, its growth appears concentrated in regional communities — particularly across Asia.

A Community-First Footprint

One of the most striking signals is the size of Bitmaker’s Discord ecosystem. According to internal sources, the exchange has built a community exceeding 100,000 active members across multiple Asian countries.

Unlike public follower counts on platforms like Twitter, Discord participation requires higher engagement thresholds. Active trading discussions, leverage strategies, and staking updates suggest a user base that is participating rather than passively following.

This community density could indicate a deliberate focus on organic users instead of paid traffic or bot-amplified visibility.

Structural Incentives Instead of Marketing Hype

Bitmaker’s most distinctive feature is its 10% cashback on realized leveraged trading losses — a mechanism rarely seen in the industry. While traditional exchanges compete on fee rebates or token rewards, Bitmaker is directly addressing one of trading’s most sensitive pain points: downside risk.

By refunding a portion of losses, the exchange softens the psychological blow of drawdowns without removing risk entirely. Traders still face exposure, but the model reduces the “all-or-nothing” emotional trigger that often leads to churn.

Combined with competitive staking products offering elevated APYs, Bitmaker has constructed a model designed to retain both active derivatives traders and passive capital allocators.

Why Vietnam Became the Entry Point

Vietnam has consistently ranked among the highest globally in crypto adoption and retail derivatives participation. The country’s demographic profile — young, digitally connected, and risk-tolerant — makes it an ideal testing ground for aggressive incentive models.

By launching in Vietnam first, Bitmaker appears to be validating its framework in one of the most competitive and responsive markets before broader expansion.

Backed by Derivatives Infrastructure Expertise

Sources familiar with the project indicate that Bitmaker benefits from the involvement of experienced market makers who have operated on exchanges such as Bybit, MEXC, and Binance.

Such expertise may be essential in sustaining a loss-cashback model, which requires disciplined hedging, liquidity provisioning, and capital management to remain economically viable.

Redefining What “Growth” Looks Like

In an industry where marketing budgets often overshadow product design, Bitmaker’s strategy suggests a different approach: build liquidity infrastructure first, create structurally differentiated incentives, and grow through concentrated regional communities.

Whether this model can scale globally remains to be seen. Sustainability will depend on risk management, capital efficiency, and the balance between promotional incentives and trading revenue.

For now, however, Bitmaker’s under-the-radar expansion  powered by community engagement and innovative incentive mechanics signals that organic growth in crypto is still possible.

In a market dominated by noise, quiet acceleration may prove to be the most disruptive force of all.

COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENT

No. 261/2026

        Tvis, 26 February 2026

Interim report Q4 2025 (October 1 – December 31)
(All figures in brackets refer to the corresponding period in 2024.)

Relatively strong end to the year in a still cautious market

CEO Torben Paulin:
“Sales in the fourth quarter developed as expected, with B2B and B2C sales both increasing. Organically, sales in the quarter increased by 5% year on year to DKK 333 million. Sales to Norway contributed positively to the growth both in the quarter and for the year.

Full-year revenue was DKK 1,279 million and therefore at the top end of our financial guidance.

Order intake in B2C developed positively in the fourth quarter, and there was a high single-digit increase in B2B orders.

The gross margin increased to 24.3% in Q4, compared to 22.5% in Q4 2024. This was mainly due to positive effects from the improved sales in core business – and the first positive effect on production costs from the new lacquering facility.

Operating expenses increased during the quarter, mainly because of the acquisition of four retail stores earlier in the year and Celebert late November. The acquired retail stores will be spun off as soon as we have found suitable new franchisees to run them, so the increase in operating expenses should be of a temporary nature.

Adjusted EBIT in Q4 was DKK 30.9 million, compared to DKK 29.8 million in Q4 2024, and the adjusted EBIT margin was 12.6%, compared to 12.9% in Q4 2024. Adjusted EBIT was impacted by an adjustment of DKK 4.5 million to the contingent payment obligation related to AUBO Production A/S, compared to a similar adjustment of DKK 9.5 million in Q4 2024. Adjusted EBIT for the full year ended at DKK 98 million, compared to DKK 90 million in 2024, and was also at the top end of our financial guidance.

Non-recurring items amounted to DKK 18.0 million income and relate to the acquisition of the remaining 55% of the shares in Celebert ApS on 25 November 2025.

Free cash flow in Q4 was DKK 11 million, compared to DKK 14 million in Q4 2024. Leverage increased further to 3.04 (from 2.50 Last year), well within the agreed covenants.

The Board of Directors will propose to the Annual General Meeting an ordinary dividend of DKK 4.50 per share for 2025. This corresponds to a total distribution of DKK 46 million, representing 60% of the net profit for 2025 and in line with the company’s dividend policy.

Looking ahead to 2026, we believe there is a good reason to expect moderately positive development in the markets in which TCM Group operates. Consumer confidence appears to be gradually improving, albeit from a very low level, and sales in the housing sector remain strong, although consumers continue to be wary of making big investments and thus only modest growth is expected in the B2C segment of the kitchen market. The B2B market is showing some signs of improving, but will most likely stay well below historical levels. The market for larger building projects is expected to benefit from lower interest rates feeding through to increased housing construction activity.
In 2026, we will fully integrate Celebert ApS into our operations, maximise the value of our new lacquering facility and initiate the roll-out of our new ERP platform. Together with our strong market positions and proven brands, we believe the 2026 initiatives will position TCM Group well for continued profitable growth.

HANGZHOU, China, Feb. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Hangzhou Municipal Government has recently approved the official names for five stations along Metro Line 10 and the Hangzhou-Deqing Intercity Railway (Yuhang Section). Within the core area of Yuhang Economic Development Zone, two stations have been renamed: Renhe South Station is now “Dongshanyang Station,” while Renhe North Station has been designated “Qihang Road Station” (literally “Setting Sail Road”). Serving as the northern terminus of Metro Line 10’s extension and a critical transfer hub for the Hangzhou-Deqing Intercity Railway, Qihang Road Station is surrounded by key industrial projects including BYD Hangzhou and Hua Guang Advanced Materials. The name not only precisely marks the geographical location but also symbolizes the area’s role as a new starting point for the integrated industrial-urban development of Yuhang Economic Development Zone. With construction of the relevant lines advancing at full speed, the future network will seamlessly connect Hangzhou’s main urban area, Yuhang Economic Development Zone, and Deqing County, further strengthening regional transportation advantages and injecting robust momentum into industrial and talent mobility.

A Media Snippet accompanying this announcement is available by clicking on this link.

Located in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, Yuhang District sits at the heart of the Yangtze River Delta, serving as Hangzhou’s gateway to Shanghai, Jiangsu and Anhui. As a provincial-level economic development zone approved by the Zhejiang Provincial Government, Yuhang Economic Development Zone functions as the district’s primary industrial platform and stands as the nearest smart manufacturing cluster to Hangzhou’s administrative center. Situated at the southern end of the Hangjiahu Plain and bordering the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to the east, the zone enjoys exceptional geographical and transportation advantages: approximately 50 kilometers from Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport, about 20 kilometers from both Hangzhou East and Hangzhou West railway stations, and accessible via seven expressways as well as Metro Line 10.

The zone focuses on smart manufacturing as its primary development direction, emphasizing three leading industries: new equipment, new materials, and new energy – collectively forming a “One Smart, Three New” industrial system. It also concentrates on niche sectors such as integrated circuits, robotics and digital energy, continuously cultivating new quality productive forces. Currently, the zone has established industrial clusters represented by enterprises including Nanfang Pump, Huaguang Advanced Materials and BYD Hangzhou, attracting numerous upstream and downstream industry chain enterprises.

In terms of innovation ecosystem development, Yuhang Economic Development Zone has partnered with Zhejiang University to establish the Advanced Electrical Equipment Innovation Center, led by a full-time chief scientist who is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. The center has undertaken multiple national and provincial-level research projects in fields such as new energy vehicle electric drive systems and intelligent robotic servo systems. The zone also boasts over 570,000 square meters of incubation space, including the state-level incubator Smart Manufacturing Innovation and Entrepreneurship Industrial Park, creating a comprehensive cultivation system covering all stages of enterprise growth.

To attract high-quality global resources, the zone offers a series of substantial and targeted supportive policies. For project support, eligible projects receive equipment subsidies and independent R&D grants; manufacturing enterprises that accumulate actual utilized foreign investment meeting specified thresholds are awarded incentives. Industry-specific policies are equally concrete and robust: integrated circuit enterprises receive subsidies for initial tape-out costs; eligible “low-altitude economy” enterprises enjoy workspace rental subsidies for specified periods; and production-oriented and R&D enterprises in the robotics sector that achieve certain annual main business income thresholds receive one-time rewards.

Yuhang Economic Development Zone adheres to the development philosophy of “Establishing the Zone through Environment, Revitalizing the Zone through Technology, and Strengthening the Zone through Smart Manufacturing,” steadily advancing regional industrial upgrading and comprehensive development. Currently, educational, medical, commercial, and residential amenities within the zone are increasingly comprehensive, including multiple primary and secondary schools, the Yuhang District Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine (under construction), the Fangzheng Plaza commercial complex, and ready-to-move-in talent-specific rental housing, providing all-around support for enterprises and talent.

At present, leveraging continuous upgrades to its transportation network and ongoing improvements to its industrial ecosystem, Yuhang Economic Development Zone is steadily unleashing the vitality of smart manufacturing development, with industrial clustering effects and innovation-driven capabilities steadily enhancing. Moving forward, the zone will continue to promote the clustering and high-quality development of smart manufacturing industries through measures including optimizing the business environment, strengthening policy guidance, and building cooperation platforms, steadily advancing toward its goal of becoming a national-level economic and technological development zone.
