 Note 1 - Reporting entity  CMB.TECH NV (the “Company”) is a company domiciled in Belgium. The address of the Company’s registered office is De Gerlachekaai 20, 2000 Antwerpen, Belgium. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements ("interim financial statements") as at and for the six months ended June 30, 2025 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group”) and the Group’s interests in associates and joint ventures.  Note 2 - Basis of preparation  These condensed consolidated  interim financial  statements have been prepared in accordance with lAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. They do not include all the information required for a complete set of IFRS annual financial statements and should therefore be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 that have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and as adopted by the European Union, collectively "IFRS".  Changes to and new significant accounting policies are described in Note 4.  These condensed consolidated interim statements were authorized for issue Supervisory Board on August 25, 2025.  financial by the  Note 3 - Use of judgements and estimates  The preparation of interim financial statements  requires management to make judgements,  estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.  The significant judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those described in the consolidated last annual financial statements with the exception of the control assessment relating to the participation in Golden Ocean Group Limited.  On March 4, 2025, the Company announced that it entered into a share purchase agreement with Hemen Holding Limited ("Hemen") for the acquisition of 81,363,730 shares in Golden Ocean Group Limited ("Golden Ocean") representing approximately 40.8% of Golden Ocean’s issued and outstanding voting shares at a price of USD 14.49 per share. Following the closing of the Share Purchase on March 12, 2025, CMB.TECH holds 40.8% of Golden Ocean’s outstanding common shares. As the remaining  shareholdings are widely contractual agreements are  dispersed and no in place with other  shareholders regarding preferred voting rights, the shareholding of 40.8% is considered a majority shareholding. Based on voting patterns at the three most recent shareholder meetings, it can be concluded that, following completion of the share purchase on March 12, 2025, CMB.TECH holds significantly more voting rights than any other shareholder or organized group of shareholders, resulting in de facto power through voting rights. The Company has assessed that control has been  obtained in accordance with IFRS 10 as of that date. Consequently, Golden Ocean was fully integrated as a subsidiary within CMB.TECH’s consolidated accounts.  Measurement of fair values  A number of the Group's accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.  The Group has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. This includes a valuation team that has overall responsibility for overseeing all significant fair value measurements, including Level 3 fair values, and reports directly to the CFO.  The valuation team regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. If third party information, such as broker quotes or pricing services, is used to measure fair values, then the valuation team assesses the evidence obtained from the third parties to support the conclusion that such valuations meet the requirements of IFRS, including the level in the fair value hierarchy in which such valuations should be classified. Significant valuation issues are reported to the Group Audit and Risk Committee.  When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses market observable data as far as possible. Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows.  Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.  Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  13 
 

 liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).  – Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).  If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability might be categorized in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.  The Group recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.  Further information about the assumptions made in measuring fair values are included in the following notes:  Note 8 - Assets and liabilities held for sale and discontinued operations and  Note 18 - Financial Instruments  Note 24 - Business Combination  Note 25 - Investments  Note 4 - Changes in significant accounting policies  The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those applied in the Group's consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2024, that have been prepared in accordance with IFRS.  During the current financial period, the Group has adopted all the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) of the IASB as adopted by the European Union and effective for the accounting year starting on January 1, 2025. The Group has not applied any new IFRS requirements that are not yet effective as per June 30, 2025.  The following new Standards, Interpretations and Amendments issued by the IASB and the IFRIC as adopted by the European Union are effective for the financial period:  – Lack of exchangeability (Amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates)  On August 15, 2023, the IASB issued Lack of Exchangeability which amended IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates (the Amendments). The Amendments arose as a result of a submission received by the IFRS Interpretations Committee about the determination of the exchange rate when there is a long-term lack of exchangeability. IAS 21, prior to the Amendments, did not include explicit requirements for the determination of the exchange rate when a currency is not exchangeable into another currency, which led to diversity in practice.  The Committee recommended that the IASB develop narrow-scope amendments to IAS 21 to address this issue. After further deliberations, the IASB issued an exposure draft of the proposed amendments to IAS  21 in April 2021 and the final amendments were issued in August 2023. The Amendments introduce requirements to assess when a currency is exchangeable into another currency and when it is not. The Amendments require an entity to estimate  the spot exchange rate when it concludes that a currency is not exchangeable into another currency.  The adoption of these new standards and amendments has not led to major changes in the Group’s accounting policies.  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  14 
 

 Note 5 - Changes in consolidation scope  On February 26, 2025, the entity CMB.TECH Bermuda Ltd. was established and 100% incorporated.  On March 4, 2025, the Company announced that it entered into a share purchase agreement with Hemen Holding Limited ("Hemen") for the acquisition of 81,363,730 shares in Golden Ocean Group Limited ("Golden Ocean") representing 41% of Golden Ocean’s issued and outstanding voting shares at a price of USD 14.49 per share. On March 12, 2025, CMB.TECH NV, through its subsidiary, purchased from Hemen the 81,363,730 shares in Golden Ocean. This acquisition is in line with CMB.TECH’s strategic objective of diversification and investing in a modern dry bulk fleet.  The Company applied acquisition accounting in accordance with IFRS 3. The total purchase price was USD 1.2 billion. After identifying and measuring the identifiable assets and liabilities, a revaluation of the net assets of USD 639 million was recognized. Based on the share in the net assets at fair value, a goodwill of USD 172 million was recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position (see Note 24). Management has strong belief in the dry bulk market and expects significant growth in the business.  On June 30, 2025, CMB.TECH NV owned an aggregate of 98,400,204 shares in Golden Ocean after the purchase of additional shares in March and April 2025 (see Note 6), representing 49.4% of Golden Ocean's outstanding voting shares.  Besides the transactions as described above, no new subsidiaries were established or acquired, nor were there any liquidations of subsidiaries.  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  15 
 

 Note 6 - Significant events  On December 31, 2024, CMB.TECH has sold the Suezmax Cap Lara (2007 - 158,826 dwt) for USD 33.2 million. The vessel was accounted for as a non-current asset held for sale as at December 31, 2024, and had a carrying value of USD 14.4 million. The sale generated a gain of USD 18.8 million and was recognized upon delivery to the new owner on March 10, 2025.  On January 7, 2025, the Company took delivery of the Newcastlemax Mineral Portugal (2025 - 210,754 dwt).  On January 9, 2025, FRS Windcat Offshore Logistics Limited entered into a 22.9 million Euro (USD 23.8 million) senior secured amortizing term loan facility which replaces the 9.5 million Euro Senior Secured Credit Facility and will also be used to finance the acquisition of the Hydrocat 55, FRS Windcat 61, FRS Windcat 62, FRS Windcat 64 and FRS Windcat 65. The facility has been concluded with Rabobank and carries a fixed interest rate of 4.15% during the first 3 years and a floating interest rate of EURIBOR plus a margin, which is still to be determined, thereafter. The facility has a duration of 5 years.  On January 13, 2025, Windcat Workboats International BV, a subsidiary of CMB.TECH, has ordered a newbuild hydrogen powered (dual fuel) multifunctional port utility vessel (MPHUV) with Neptune Construction for an amount of USD 6.1 million.

 Note 7 - Segment reporting  The Group distinguishes three divisions: the Marine division, the H2 Infra division and the H2 Industry division. These three divisions operate in different markets and eight operating segments are identified.  Marine: the Marine division is the largest division in the Group. It builds, owns, operates and designs a wide range of low and zero-carbon ships and features a fleet with hydrogen-powered vessels such as Crew Transfer Vessels, ferries, Commissioning Service Operations Vessels, and tugboats, alongside ammonia- powered large bulk carriers, container ships, chemical and crude oil tankers. The Marine division consists of 6 operating segments: Euronav, Bocimar, Delphis, Bochem, Windcat, and Port vessels.  H2 Infra: the H2 Infra division is developing and securing the green molecule supply. The Company integrates and manages key technology and infrastructure for the production and distribution of green hydrogen and ammonia.  H2 Industry: H2 Industry is a provider of scalable dual fuel industrial applications. Its proven combustion technology enables the company to develop heavy-duty hydrogen-powered applications.  Although not all operating segments meet the definition of a reportable segment in IFRS 8, the Group voluntarily discloses the related information since reported in this way to the CODM.  The segment profit or loss figures and key assets as set out below are presented to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) and the Management Board on at least a quarterly basis to help the key decision makers in evaluating the respective segments. Following the acquisition of CMB.TECH Enterprises in February 2024, the markets in which the Group operates have expanded. Consequently, the Group has decided to update its segment reporting in 2024 to reflect these changes. Additionally, please note that the Floating Storage Units (FSOs) have been incorporated into the Euronav segment under the Euronav brand name.  Following the acquisition of Golden Ocean in 2025, Golden Ocean has been incorporated into the Bocimar segment. Even though Golden Ocean has material business activities and is currently reporting separately, management reviews performance at the combined dry bulk level as the activities, risks, customers, and economic characteristics are identical. Presenting both under Bocimar therefore provides the most accurate and consistent view of the Group’s dry bulk activities.  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  18

 Note 8 - Assets and liabilities held for sale and discontinued operations  Assets held for sale  On May 21, 2024, the Company sold the VLCC Alsace (2012 - 299,999 dwt) for USD 96.9 million. The vessel was accounted for as a non-current asset held for sale as from June 30, 2024 and had a carrying value of USD 69.4 million. The net gain on the vessel amounts to USD 27.5 million and was recognized upon delivery to its new owners during the first quarter of 2025.  On December 31, 2024, CMB.TECH has sold the Suezmax Cap Lara (2007, 158,826 dwt) for USD 33.2 million. The vessel was accounted for as a non-current asset held for sale as at December 31, 2024, and had a carrying value of USD 14.4 million. A net gain of USD 18.8 million was realized upon delivery to her new owners in the first quarter of 2025.  The Windcat 6 has been sold, after 18 years of service on December 18, 2024 for an amount of USD 268 thousand. The CTV was accounted for as a non- current asset held for sale as at December 31, 2024, and had a carrying value of USD 48 thousand. The sale generated a gain USD 220 thousand and was recognized upon delivery to the new owner on March 13, 2025.  On June 27, 2024, the Management Board formally decided to commit to a plan to sell Suezmax vessels Statia (2006 - 150,205 dwt) and Cap Felix (2008 - 158,765 dwt) and VLCC vessels Hakata (2010 - 302,550 dwt) and Ingrid (2012 - 314,000 dwt). It is noted that Suezmaxes Statia and Cap Felix and VLCC Hakata have been successfully sold. Statia and Cap Felix were sold for a combined net sales price of USD 83.6 million, had a combined carrying value of  USD 31.7 million and generated a net gain of USD  51.9 million recognized in the second half of 2024. With respect to VLCC Ingrid, there has been no immediate interested buyers for an extended period. Accordingly, Management has determined that it is no longer appropriate to maintain the vessel’s classification as an ‘Asset Held for Sale’ under IFRS  5. The vessel has therefore been reclassified as an  ‘Owned Vessel,’ and depreciation has been recognized retroactively for the period from June 27, 2024, to June 30, 2025.  On April 16, 2025, the Company sold the VLCCs Hakone (2010 - 302,624 dwt) and Hakata (2010 - 302,550 dwt). Both vessels are accounted for as an asset held for sale as at June 30, 2025 and have a combined carrying value of USD 74.2 million. The net gain on the vessels amounts to USD 39.3 million and will be recognized upon delivery to its new owners during the third quarter of 2025.  Discontinued operations  As of June 30, 2025 and as of December 31, 2024 the Group had no operations that met the criteria of discontinued operations.  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  21

 The increase in total revenue for the period is primarily attributable to higher spot market revenue, driven by an increase in the number of vessels in the fleet. This expansion is mainly the result of the acquisition of Golden Ocean, which became effective as of March 12, 2025. In addition, 10 newbuild drybulk vessels were delivered and added to the fleet since June 30, 2024. The increase in the number of dry bulk vessels fully offsets the decline in spot revenue from the tanker division, which was primarily attributable to a reduced number of tanker vessels in the fleet.  Spot revenue growth was partially offset by a decrease in pool revenue, primarily due to a reduction in the number of tanker vessels active in the pool.  Time charter revenue increased compared to the same period in the prior year, mainly due to the higher number of vessels employed on time charter, including those acquired through the Golden Ocean transaction.  Other operating income comprises revenues related to the day-to-day commercial operation of the fleet that are not directly attributable to specific voyages. The decrease in other operating income during the first half of 2025 is mainly the result of non-recurring items recognized in the first half of 2024. These included the gain on the sale of Euronav Ship Management Hellas, liquidated damages received in connection with the sale of the N-class vessels (Noble, Nectar, and Newton), and claim settlements.  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  23

For vessels operated on the spot market, voyage expenses are paid by the shipowner while voyage expenses for vessels under a time charter contract, are paid by the charterer. Voyage expenses for vessels operated in a Pool, are paid by the Pool.  The majority of other voyage expenses are port costs and agency fees which are owner's expenses on voyage charters. Port costs vary depending on the number of spot voyages performed and the number and type of ports. This also increases significantly due to the acquisition of the Golden Ocean fleet as per March 12, 2025.  The operating expenses relate mainly to the crewing, technical and other costs to operate vessels. Crewing costs are related to crew wages, travel and victualling costs. Technical costs relate mainly to maintenance, spare parts and forwarding costs. Other costs are mainly port cost and costs for certifications and inspections. The increase in operating expenses is mainly related to the increase of number of vessels in the fleet during the first half of 2025 compared to 2024. This is primarily attributable due to the acquisition of Golden Ocean Group Ltd as per March 12, 2025 and newbuild drybulk vessels delivered during the year.  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  24

This increase was related to an increase in interest expenses on bank loans due to a higher average outstanding debt in 2025 compared to the same period last year.  Interest leasing is the interest on lease liabilities.  The increase in foreign exchange losses is primarily attributable to the decline in the EUR/USD exchange rate, which had a negative impact on the outstanding loan balances under the Group’s EUR-denominated facilities.  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  26

 Impairment  Marine  Based on the impairment indicator analysis conducted for the period ending June 30, 2025, the Group has not identified any impairment triggers within its Marine division that require further impairment testing. Both internal and external impairment indicators, including asset performance, market valuations, and macroeconomic conditions, have been thoroughly assessed. The review is supported by independent broker valuations which indicate that the fair market value of the fleet exceeds its carrying value. The same analysis was conducted for the year ending December 31, 2024 and for the year ending December 31, 2023.  However, it was noted that the Golden Zhoushan (2011 - 175,853 dwt) was sold pursuant to a Memorandum of Agreement signed on July 3, 2025, for a sale price of USD 22.1 million, less a 1% commission. The vessel’s carrying amount at the time of sale was USD 26.5 million, resulting in a capital loss of USD 4.5 million. As of June 30, 2025, an impairment charge was recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.  Accordingly, as of the reporting date, no further impairment adjustments are required for the Group’s assets within the Marine division. The Management Board, under supervision of the Supervisory Board, will continue to evaluate potential impairment risks on an ongoing basis, ensuring timely responses to any significant changes in market conditions or operational performance.  Security  All vessels financed with bank loans are subject to a mortgage to secure bank loans (see Note 16).  Capital commitment  As at June 30, 2025 the Group's total capital commitment amounts to USD 1.9 billion (December 31, 2024: USD 2.4 billion).

 Other borrowings  On June 6, 2017, the Group signed an agreement with BNP to act as dealer for a Treasury Notes Program with a maximum outstanding amount of 50 million Euro. On October 1, 2018, KBC was appointed as an additional dealer in the agreement and the maximum amount was increased from 50 million Euro to 150 million Euro. As of June 30, 2025, the outstanding amount was USD 35.2 million or 30.1 million Euro (December 31, 2024: USD 63.0 million or 60.6 million Euro). The Treasury Notes are issued on an as needed basis with different durations and initial pricing is set to 60 bps over Euribor. The Company enters into FX forward contracts to manage the transaction risks related to these instruments issued in Euro compared to the USD Group currency. The FX contracts have a same nominal amount and duration as the issued Treasury Notes and they are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. On June 30, 2025, the fair value of these forward contracts amounted to USD 0.1 million.  Due to the acquisition and consolidation of Golden Ocean Group as per March, 2025, USD 300.0 million of sale and leaseback arrangements were entered into the Group. The sale and leaseback financing agreements have a term of between 7 and 10 years, from the delivery of the respective vessels, in the case of newbuilds. They carry an interest rate of SOFR plus 1.85% to 2.00%. At the end of the bareboat contract, the Company has a purchase option or a purchase obligation. As at June 2025, the outstanding balance under these facilities was USD 292.2 million. In relation to the sale and leaseback arrangements, the total outstanding balance as at June 30, 2025, was USD 1,266.4 million.  Golden Ocean receives services from Front Ocean in relation to sales and purchase activities, bunker procurement and administrative services in relation to the corporate headquarter. Costs are allocated based on a cost plus mark-up model. As of June 30, 2025, the outstanding amount was USD 4.5 million.  The future capital payments for these leaseback agreements are as follows:  (in thousands of USD)  June 30, 2025  December 31, 2024  Less than one year  65,909  31,701  Between one and five years  439,271  141,251  More than five years  771,425  531,385  Total future capital payables  1,276,605  704,337  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  39

 Liquidity risk  Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation. The sources of financing are diversified and the bulk of the loans are irrevocable, long-term and maturities are spread over different years.  The following are the remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities:  Contractual cash flows December 31, 2024  (in thousands of USD)  Note  Carrying Amount  Total  Less than 1 year  Between 1 and 5 years  More than 5 years  Non derivative financial liabilities  Bank loans and other notes  16  1,855,426  2,429,845  313,873  1,603,373  512,598  Other borrowings  16  763,085  1,111,977  143,799  292,668  675,510  Lease liabilities  16  3,744  4,138  2,397  1,517  224  Current trade and other payables *  17  52,073  52,073  52,073  —  —  2,674,328  3,598,033  512,143  1,897,558  1,188,332  Contractual cash flows June 30, 2025  (in thousands of USD)  Note  Carrying Amount  Total  Less than 1 year  Between 1 and 5 years  More than 5 years  Non derivative financial liabilities  Bank loans and other notes  16  4,215,914  4,881,080  550,526  4,184,029  146,525  Other borrowings  16  1,306,112  1,905,071  183,607  697,473  1,023,990  Lease liabilities  16  119,696  120,427  115,650  4,638  139  Current trade and other payables *  17  122,713  122,713  122,713  —  —  5,764,435  7,029,291  972,496  4,886,140  1,170,654  * Deferred income and VAT payables (included in other payables) (see Note 16), which are not financial liabilities, are not included.  The Group has secured bank loans that contain loan covenants. A future breach of covenant may require the Group to repay the loan earlier than indicated in the above table. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Group was in compliance with all of the covenants contained in the debt agreements.  The interest payments on variable interest rate loans in the table above reflect market forward interest rates at the reporting date and these amounts may change as market interest rates change. It is not expected that the cash flows included in the table above (the maturity analysis) could occur significantly earlier, or at significantly different amounts than stated above.  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  44 
 

 Note 19 - Deferred tax assets and liabilities  CMB.TECH NV and its subsidiaries had available combined cumulative tax losses and other tax credits carried forward of USD 194.5 million and USD 160.6 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Under current local tax laws, these loss carry forwards have an indefinite life and may be used to offset future taxable income of CMB.TECH NV and its subsidiaries.  The Company did not recognize deferred tax assets of USD 50.3 million and USD 39.7 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, that can be carried forward against future taxable income, because it is not considered more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will be utilized in the foreseeable future.  Note 20 - Non-current receivables  (in thousands of USD)  Note  June 30, 2025  December 31, 2024  Shareholders loans to joint ventures  25  18,480  16,188  Derivatives  -  8,895  1,279  Cash guarantees and deposits  -  51,283  48,548  Other non-current receivables  -  10,553  9,061  Total non-current receivables  89,211  75,076  The shareholder loans to joint ventures mainly relates to the loans provided to BeHydro and JPN H2Hydro and to joint ventures within the Windcat group of companies, i.e. TSM Windcat and FRS Windcat Offshore Logistics.  The cash guarantees and deposits as of June 30, 2025 relates to a cash security of USD 45.7 million lodged with the High Court of Malaysia in January, 2024. The cash security equals the claimed amount and was required to lift the arrest on the vessel Oceania which was subsequently sold and delivered to her new owners.  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  45 
 

 Note 21 - Inventory  The bunker inventory mainly relates to the bunker fuel stored on board of the vessels. As of June 30, 2025 the carrying amount of the bunker inventory on board of the vessels amounted to USD 50.3 million (2024: USD 17.3 million). The increase is mainly due to the acquisition of the Golden Ocean Fleet as per March 12, 2025.  Bunkers delivered to vessels operating in the TI Pool or Stolt Pool, are sold to the Pool and bunkers  on board of these pooled vessels are no longer shown as bunker inventory but as trade and other receivables.  The inventory on board of our vessels is accounted for on a first-in, first-out basis. No write down is needed as long as the freight market remains robust offsetting potential higher weighted average consumption costs of the bunker oil consumed from that inventory.  Bunker expenses are recognized in profit or loss upon consumption.  The other inventory amounts to USD 8.1 million and relates to trucks purchased to be converted into hydrotrucks for resale and spare parts used for the conversion of regular engines to hydrogen powered engines.  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  46

These amounts decreased in the first six months of 2025 mainly due to a decreased number of vessels in the pool.  The increase in deferred charges is mainly due to the acquisition and consolidation of GOGL as per March 12, 2025, and to deferred arrangement fees of USD 28.4 million related to the undrawn amount of the USD 2 billion loan facility.  The increase in other receivables is due to the acquisition of GOGL and mainly relates to bunker receivables on time charter-out contracts.  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  47

RMK have commenced legal proceedings in the London High Court against CMB.TECH seeking USD 13.0 million in damages in relation to unpaid advisory services provided by RMK to CMB.TECH concerning its merger with Gener8 in 2016 and 2017. Based on an external legal advice, management believes that it has strong arguments that the risk of an outflow is less than probable and therefore no provision is recognized. Our witness statements were taken in the course of 2024 and in May 2025. The case was pleaded in June, and a verdict is expected by end of September. The Group is also involved in a claim from Fourworld. Fourworld has filed a claim against CMB NV and an identical claim to CMB.TECH NV as well as all parties concerned in the deal with Frontline. They want to overturn the following 3 decisions; (1) the sale of 24 vessels from CMB.TECH to Frontline, (2) the termination of the arbitration between CMB.TECH and Frontline and (3) the acquisition of CMB.TECH Enterprises by the Company. Hearings will take place in May 2026. Management believes that Fourworld has no strong arguments and evidence and that the risk for CMB.TECH is low and therefore no provision is recognised.  Additionally, the Group is still involved in a litigation concerning the Oceania. A cash security of USD 45.7 million has been lodged with the High Court of Malaysia in January, 2024 (see Note 20). On May 7, 2025, the Group received an arbitration award in our favour in the London arbitration proceedings. The tribunal held that the cargo is indeed deemed to be sanctioned, wherefore Silk Straits are to indemnify CMBT and pay our claim of USD 1.8 million to be increased with costs. The case remains pending before the Malaysian court, with hearings postponed to 2026. CMB.TECH is currently in discussion with Silk Straits regarding a potential assignment of their rights vis-à- vis Black Swan. Such an assignment would enable CMB.TECH to evaluate the possibility of initiating legal proceedings against Black Swan in Singapore, with the objective of countering the ongoing Malaysian proceedings. An additional claim has been initiated by Black Swan, alleging hedging losses arising from the loss of the cargo. The potential additional exposure amounts to USD 13.6 million. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and external as well as internal advice from counsel, management is of the opinion that it is not more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle any obligation and that consequently no provision needs to be accounted for at the moment.  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  48 
 

 Note 24 - Business Combination  On March 4, 2025, CMB.TECH NV, through its subsidiary CMB.TECH Bermuda Ltd., entered into a share purchase agreement with Hemen Holdings Limited (Hemen) to purchase all of Hemen’s 81,363,730 of the common shares of Golden Ocean Group Limited at a purchase price of USD 14.49 per common share. Following the closing of the Share Purchase on March 12, 2025, CMB.TECH holds 40.8% of Golden Ocean’s outstanding common shares. The combination of CMB.TECH and Golden Ocean is accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting under the provisions of IFRS 3, “Business Combinations”, with CMB.TECH as the accounting acquirer under this guidance.  As the remaining shareholdings are widely dispersed and no contractual agreements are in place with other shareholders regarding preferred voting rights, the shareholding of 40.8% is considered a majority shareholding. As mentioned in the Bye-laws, any question proposed for consideration at any general meeting shall be decided on by a simple majority of votes cast.. Based on voting patterns at the three most recent shareholder meetings, it can be concluded that, following completion of the share purchase, CMB.TECH holds significantly more voting rights than any other shareholder or organized group of shareholders, resulting in de facto power through voting rights. The Company has assessed that control has been obtained in accordance with IFRS 10 as of that date. Consequently, Golden Ocean was fully integrated as a subsidiary within CMB.TECH’s consolidated accounts.  Between March 24, 2025, and April 3, 2025, CMB.TECH acquired an additional 17,036,474 Golden  Ocean common shares in the open market. As of June 30, 2025, CMB.TECH, indirectly through CMB.TECH Bermuda Ltd. owned an aggregate of  98,400,204 Golden Ocean common shares,  representing 49.4% of Golden Ocean’s outstanding voting shares.  On April 22, 2025, CMB.TECH and Golden Ocean announced they signed the Term Sheet for a stock- for-stock merger and subsequently on May 28, 2025, signed the Merger Agreement. CMB.TECH will be the surviving entity of the Merger. On August 19, 2025, the stock-for-stock merger of Golden Ocean with and into CMB.TECH Bermuda Ltd., a wholly- owned subsidiary of CMB.TECH with CMB.TECH Bermuda Ltd. as the surviving company, and with CMB.TECH as the issuer of the merger consideration shares, has been approved. On August 20, 2025, the merger was completed and each Golden Ocean common share was canceled, and such shares (other than shares that Golden Ocean, CMB.TECH, CMB.TECH Bermuda or any of their respective subsidiaries own) were automatically converted into the right to receive 0.95 CMB.TECH ordinary shares (subject to adjustment, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement).  The subsequent acquisitions of Golden Ocean shares as well as the merger will be accounted for as a step acquisition of the non-controlling interest to equity on the basis of IFRS 10.B96.  Golden Ocean Group, is an international dry bulk shipping group. The merger creates one of the largest diversified listed maritime groups in the world with a combined fleet of more than 250 vessels. Following the merger, the free float of CMB.TECH increased, which is beneficial for the liquidity of the CMB.TECH ordinary shares.  Details of the fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, purchase consideration and goodwill are as follows (note that fair value was not used as the measurement basis for assets and liabilities that require a different basis, which includes the office leases, contingent liabilities, income taxes and defined benefit pension plans):  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  49

Based on the figures of March 12, 2025, this amounts to USD 1,460,354 thousand.  Current assets are comprised of trade debtors, inventory and deferred charges. Current liabilities are primarily constituted by short-term loans and borrowings, trade debts and accrued costs and deferred income related to the shipping activities.  Management has strong belief in the dry bulk market and expects significant growth in the business. CMB.TECH recognized the resulting goodwill on the statement of financial position. This goodwill will subsequently be assessed for impairment annually.  Contribution to revenue and profit/loss  Since their acquisition by the Group, the acquired companies contributed revenue of USD 198.8 million and a loss of USD 37.5 million to the Group’s consolidated results for the period ended June 30, 2025. If the acquisition had occurred on 1 January 2025, management estimates that the Group’s consolidated revenue for the period ended June 30, 2025, would have been USD 306.2 million and consolidated loss for the period ended June 30, 2025, would have been USD 66.1 million.  Acquisition related costs  The Group incurred at June 30,2025 approximately USD 2.0 million of legal fees, mainly related to due diligence costs, advisory fees and audit fees. These acquisition-related costs for the business combination were expensed as incurred and are included in 'General and administrative expenses'.  Business combinations completed in prior periods  On December 22, 2023 CMB.TECH and CMB NV entered into a share purchase agreement for the acquisition of 100% of the shares in CMB.TECH Enterprises NV for a purchase price of USD 1.15 billion in cash. The transaction was approved by an Extraordinary General Meeting on February 7, 2024 and has been completed on February 8, 2024. The transaction has been considered as a transaction under common control and therefore IFRS 3 does not apply. Hence book value accounting was applied which resulted in the recognition of an adjustment of USD 797.0 million in retained earnings to reflect the difference between the consideration paid and the identifiable net assets acquired.  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  50

 Note 26 - Subsequent events  On July 2, 2025, the CTV Windcat 58 was delivered.  On July 3, 2025, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the Capesize vessel Golden Zhoushan for a sale price of USD 22.1 million, less a 1% commission (see Note 12). The vessel is expected to be delivered to its new owner in the third quarter of 2025.  The purchase of eight vessels from SFL Corporation Ltd. en-bloc for an aggregate price of USD 112 million was finalized with the early delivery of the vessels between 8 and 10 July. At the same time, the Company fully drew down on a USD 90 million revolving credit facility to refinance its SFL finance lease obligations.  On July 24, 2025, the CSOV Windcat Rotterdam was delivered.  On August 19, 2025, Golden Ocean held a Special General Meeting to vote on the proposed  merger. The merger was approved by  shareholders holding 92.72% present or represented at  of the shares the meeting.  Dissenting shareholders may, within one month after the notice for the Special General Meeting has been given, apply to the Supreme Court of Bermuda to have the fair value of its shares  appraised. Golden Ocean has received correspondence from certain holders of Golden Ocean common shares stating their intention to exercise their rights as Dissenting Shareholders.  On August 20, 2025, the merger was closed. Based on the Exchange Ratio and the current number of outstanding Golden Ocean common  shares and ordinary shares in the Company, the Company issued 95,952,934 new ordinary shares by means of a capital increase by contribution in kind.  Upon completion of the Merger, CMB.TECH shareholders own 70% (or 67% excluding treasury shares) of the total issued share capital of CMB.TECH and Golden Ocean shareholders own 30% (or 33% excluding treasury shares) of the total issued share capital of CMB.TECH.  CMB.TECH remains listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and Euronext Brussels under the ticker symbol ‘CMBT’.

 Note 28 - Statement on the true and fair view of the consolidated financial statements and the fair overview of the management report  Mr. Marc Saverys, Chairperson of the Supervisory Board, Mr. Alexander Saverys, CEO and Mr. Ludovic Saverys, CFO, hereby certify that, to the best of their knowledge, (a) the condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of June 30, 2025 and for the six-month period then ended, which have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” as issued by the IASB and as adopted by the European Union, give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and results of CMB.TECH NV and the entities included in the consolidation, and (b) the interim management report includes a true and fair overview of the information required to be included therein under Article 13 §5 and  §6 of the Royal Decree of November 14, 2007 on the obligations of issuers of financial instruments admitted to trading on a regulated market.  Statutory auditor’s report to the Supervisory Board of CMB.TECH NV on the review of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six-month period ended 30 June 2025  Introduction  We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position of CMB.TECH NV as of 30 June 2025 and the related condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month period then ended, as well as the explanatory notes. The Supervisory Board is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”, as adopted by the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed consolidated interim financial statements based on our review.  Scope of review  We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity”. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.  Conclusion  Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”, as adopted by the European Union.  Antwerp, 27 August 2025  BDO Bedrijfsrevisoren BV Statutory auditor Represented by Veerle Catry*  *Acting for a company  CMB.TECH - Financial Report HY 2025  54
