Supporting context

This section explains the evidence and judgment used to support the recommendation and the legal, brand and financial assumptions used in the valuation.

Reference case

Ørsted

Prepared reference case

Indicative value of the Ørsted name in offshore and onshore renewables and bioenergy. Wind farms, seabed leases, subsidies, power contracts and enterprise value are excluded.

US stop-work orders, cancelled projects and DKK 3.6bn impairments in 2025, plus a DKK 60bn rights issue, lower the trust, stability and legal risk scores. The Danish state owns 50.1%. The 0.50% name-only ceiling and 0.335% selected royalty are analyst assumptions, not an observed licence. Opening hypothetical rent of DKK 245.4m is about 2.8% of DKK 8.620bn FY2025 EBIT after impairments. Legal and behavioural inputs are outside-in estimates, not a trademark opinion or customer survey.
Informed by numerous sources including company reporting, investor materials, analyst research, market data and selected benchmark references where relevant.
