Verbio Q4 24/25 earnings summary
Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.Executive summary
Achieved record production in 2024-2025, with biodiesel, ethanol, and biomethane output reaching new highs despite challenging market conditions and regulatory headwinds.
EBITDA for FY 2024/25 declined to €121.6m from €164.0m year-over-year, mainly due to lower gross profit, weaker ethanol margins, market fraud, and one-off costs, but maintained a strong market position and premium in core products.
Strategic focus on expanding advanced biofuels, optimizing portfolio, and leveraging global demand growth, especially in North America and Asia.
Financial stability remains high, with equity ratio at 58.2% as of June 30, 2025.
€66m impairment on straw biomethane plant impacted total comprehensive income.
Financial highlights
Group EBITDA fell to €121.6m for the year, with Q4 Group EBITDA at €-8.2m, mainly due to bioethanol/biomethane segment losses and one-offs.
Biodiesel production reached nearly 620,000 tons with 87% capacity utilization; Canadian plant shutdown impacted output, but European production increased.
Net financial debt increased to €32.9m from €14.2m year-over-year, driven by negative free cash flow and lower operating cash flow.
Biodiesel segment Q4 revenue rose to €244 million (from €210 million in Q3), with EBITDA up 24% to €20.8 million.
Bioethanol/biomethane Q4 revenue was €186 million (up from €181.5 million in Q3), but EBITDA dropped to €-26.3 million due to lower margins and inventory write-downs.
Outlook and guidance
FY 2025/26 guidance: production capacity increases across all segments, with EBITDA expected in the high double-digit million range, based on conservative market spread assumptions and recovering GHG quota prices.
Guidance assumes improved results, lower investments, balanced free cash flow, and moderate net debt reduction year over year, with temporary increases during the year due to cash flow timing.
Second half of 2025-2026 expected to be stronger due to new contracts and higher quota prices.
Dividend payout suspended for 2024-2025 to maintain financial flexibility, with intent to resume in the medium term.

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.
This is genuinely one of the cleanest and fastest finance apps out there to track the market.
