Executive summary

  • Q3 2025 sales were stable on a like-for-like basis, down 1% year-over-year, with volume growth in energy/utilities and rubber reinforcement in China and the U.S., but softness in Europe and specialty segments.

  • Operational efficiency was driven by cost optimization, footprint consolidation, and a strong focus on cash flow and working capital improvements.

  • Disposals in Latin America and currency headwinds, especially from USD and CNY, impacted reported sales.

  • Ongoing cost and cash flow priorities supported low financial leverage.

Financial highlights

  • Q3 2025 consolidated sales were €880 million, with like-for-like sales down 1% and reported sales down 3.8% due to FX and disposals.

  • Volume growth of 3% in Q3, offset by lower prices, raw material pass-through, and mix.

  • Nine-month 2025 like-for-like sales were €2,833 million, down from €2,931 million in 2024, mainly due to lower raw material and energy costs.

  • CapEx for 2025 expected at €145 million, with about half for maintenance and no major expansion in China.

Outlook and guidance

  • Full-year 2025 sales targeted at approximately €3.7 billion, with an EBIT/EBITu margin of 8%, at the lower end of previous guidance.

  • Focus remains on operational leverage, margin expansion, and strong cash flow delivery amid Q4 uncertainty.

  • Midterm EBIT margin target of 10% remains, but timing is flexible due to delays in growth platforms.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
