Northland Power Q3 Results: Revenue Rises - Net Loss Doubles - Dividend Cut - Stock Plummets

Toronto (Canada) - Northland Power has released its results for the third quarter of 2025. Revenue increased by 13 percent to CAD 554 million (approx. EUR 340 million), while adjusted EBITDA also rose by 13 percent to CAD 257 million (approx. EUR 158 million). Free cash flow per share improved to CAD 0.17 (approx. EUR 0.10).

By contrast, the net loss more than doubled to CAD 456 million (approx. EUR 280 million) from CAD 191 million (approx. EUR 117 million) in the same quarter of 2024. The main reason was a non-cash impairment of CAD 527 million (approx. EUR 324 million) at the Nordsee One offshore project. Earnings per share fell to −CAD 1.58 (approx. −EUR 1), significantly missing analysts’ expectations.

In the offshore wind segment, production and revenue increased by 19 percent and 18 percent respectively, with stable availability of 96 percent. Onshore renewables and storage recorded a 9 percent revenue increase, while gas and utility infrastructure segments delivered stable results.

Construction of the Hai Long offshore wind project (1 GW) is delayed, although more than half of the turbines are installed and all export cables are in place. This is expected to result in foregone revenues of CAD 150-200 million (approx. EUR 92-123 million) in 2026. At the Baltic Power offshore wind farm (1.1 GW), both substations have been installed; commercial operations are scheduled to start in the second half of 2026.

The Board of Directors has cut the dividend to CAD 0.72 per share annually (approx. EUR 0.44), down from CAD 1.20 (CAD 0.10 per month). Payment will be made on January 15, 2026.

Northland Power confirmed its 2025 outlook, expecting adjusted EBITDA of CAD 1.2-1.3 billion (approx. EUR 737-799 million) and free cash flow per share of CAD 1.15-1.35 (approx. EUR 0.71-0.83).

Investors reacted negatively to the results and company developments: the stock is down sharply by 26 percent this morning to EUR 11.25, making it the weakest performer in the RENIXX index.
