Cadeler Raises EUR 175 Million to Fund Offshore Wind Fleet Expansion

Cadeler has successfully completed a private placement, raising approximately EUR 175 million (equivalent to $203 million) to support its strategic growth initiatives. The capital raise received strong backing from existing major investors, including BW Altor and Scorpio. Proceeds are primarily earmarked for financing the construction of new vessels and the overall expansion of its offshore wind installation fleet. Notably, part of the capital may be utilized for the potential acquisition of a specialized scour protection vessel. The placement price was set above the company's 5-day volume-weighted average price (VWAP), signaling robust investor confidence. This expansion positions Cadeler to better capture accelerating growth within the global offshore wind sector while maintaining its dividend potential.
