Nkt Launches Ieee-Qualified Medium Voltage Splice for the North American Market NKT, a European manufacturer of power cable systems and accessories, was strengthening its presence in North America with the launch of JCSI-35, an IEEE-qualified, all-in-one medium-voltage cold-shrink splice. Designed to deliver high reliability, electrical integrity and long-term service life, the solution is engineered to perform under demanding operating conditions across the United States and Canada. The launch marks an important step in NKT's regional expansion, building on its established role as a supplier to major infrastructure projects, including the Champlain Hudson Power Express. With the launch of JCSI-35 - an all-in-one medium-voltage cold-shrink splice - NKT is broadening its product offering to meet growing demand from distribution system operators in the United States and Canada. Designed specifically for the requirements of the North American market, JCSI-35 is qualified to IEEE 404 and is suitable for 15 kV, 28 kV and 35 kV applications. It combines best-in-class components trusted across the industry with NKT's own design and material enhancements to ensure reliable electrical performance and long service life under demanding grid conditions. Reliability is central to the design of JCSI-35. The splice has passed IEEE 404 testing, demonstrating its ability to withstand real-world electrical and environmental stresses, including partial discharge testing. A key contributor to this reliability is the integrated shear-bolt connector, which is tested to ANSI C119.4 Class C. The connector ensures precise torque application, delivering a secure and consistent electrical connection while reducing installation errors and enhancing operational safety. A central element of JCSI-35's reliability is its engineered silicone body, designed to ensure long-term mechanical and electrical stability. The splice body is manufactured from an extra-high tear strength silicone material, allowing controlled expansion during installation without splitting. The material provides high dielectric strength, reliable low-temperature recovery and consistent performance throughout the product's service life. A thicker cross-section at critical points reduces surface stress, further enhancing durability under demanding grid conditions. To address another key failure mode in the market, JCSI-35 features a robust internal and external sealing system designed to prevent moisture ingress and maintain long-term insulation integrity. JCSI-35 is aimed at distribution system operators, installers and distributors across the United States and Canada, where demand for IEEE-qualified, cold-applied accessories continues to grow. NKT supports the launch with local sales expertise. Other IEEE qualified accessories will follow as they become ready for sale, enabling us to support utilities and their partners with reliable solutions across the cable system. Board Change • Mar 26

Nkt Launches New Dry-Type High-Voltage Outdoor Terminations to Enhance Safety and Reduce Environmental Risk in the Power Grid NKT launched the KFEV 245 dry-type outdoor termination to address concerns brought by the conventional oil-filled technology that still largely dominates the market. The KFEV 245 has been developed to meet growing demand for safe alternatives in modern power transmission systems. It offers a range of practical improvements that address the need for reduced complexity and simplified installation. Oil-filled outdoor terminations still dominate the high-voltage cable accessories market. However, customers increasingly prefer dry-type terminations for environmental and safety reasons, similar to those widely introduced and favoured at lower voltage levels in recent years. To meet growing demand and set the standard for the best solutions in the market, NKT is now introducing the KFEV 245 dry - dry-type outdoor termination for 245 kV power cable systems. The demand in the market for high-voltage dry-type outdoor terminations has been increasing in recent years. High-voltage power cable systems can benefit from terminations that allow faster, easier, and safer installation. Dry-type terminations are more reliable and sustainable because they eliminate the risk of oil leaks, thereby minimising potential negative environmental impact, says Biswajit Singh, Senior Director, Product Management Accessories at NKT. A simple and robust design: The KFEV 245 dry plug-in outdoor termination is now part of NKT's comprehensive high-voltage accessories portfolio, covering the full HVAC voltage range up to 550 kV. Like the rest of the high-voltage accessoriesfolio, this new termination is manufactured at NKT's high-voltage cable accessories centre of excellence in Alingsas, Sweden.

NKT Launches New Monitoring Solution to Safeguard Cables NKT introduces an integrated cable monitoring platform designed to support continuous operation of on- and of shore power cables by proactively identifying and mitigating potential threats, including fishing accidents and deliberate damage. NKT is launching a new cable monitoring solution, a platform that integrates multiple sensors and combines technologies to provide a comprehensive overview of power cable conditions, aiming to make power cable grids more reliable. The platform combines data from various sensors and technologies, such as vessel location, acoustic sensing around the cable, depth of burial of the cable under the seabed, and conductor temperature. By integrating and analysing this data together, the platform can identify suspicious activities, such as vessels passing slowly, fishing equipment or anchors being pulled near the cable, and other risks that could lead to cable damage. When one or more parameters exceed predefined thresholds, the platform triggers an alert helping those monitoring the cable to take potential remediation actions and strengthen the grid's resilience. The company new cable monitoring platform represents a significant advancement in ensuring the reliability and safety of power cables. By integrating multiple sensors into a single platform, the company can provide situational awareness and proactive monitoring, which is crucial for maintaining up-time and preventing damage, says Stefan Persson, Director, Cable Monitoring Solutions, Service & Installation at NKT. Root cause analysis support: If a failure of critical infrastructure occurs, knowledge about the cause of the incident can be of great importance for the power cable owner as well as public authorities. By gathering alarm data, including vessel movements and acoustic data, the system can support the root cause analysis of the damage. In the short run, it can pinpoint potential responsible parties, and in the long run, it can help improve situational awareness around the cable, says Stefan Persson. Preparedness is key for securing continuous operation of power cables: The platform includes features that provide cable owners with detailed information about how the cable is performing as well as documentation, information from marine survey inspections, current stockpiling status of spare parts, and notifications for replacing parts nearing expiry. This proactive approach helps in identifying focus areas to ensure the cable remains operational and improves the overall level of preparedness and the ability to take preventive measures. The company solution enhances the ability to monitor and safeguard power cables but also helps cable owners prepare for and mitigate potential failures. Reducing outage times for a cable includes readiness in case a critical situation occurs. Recent Insider Transactions • Feb 26

New Risk • Nov 15
New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: kr.2.1m This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Announcement • Nov 15
