Q1 2026 earnings summary12 Nov, 2025

Executive summary

  • Achieved record biodiesel production of 166.9 kt with 94% capacity utilization; ethanol and biomethane production increased year-over-year, driven by operational improvements and the Nevada plant ramp-up.

  • Revenue rose to €438.2 million in Q1 2025/2026, up 22% year-over-year, supported by higher GHG quota demand, increased biodiesel prices, and greater bioethanol and biomethane sales, especially in North America.

  • EBITDA surged to €58.2 million in Q1 2025/26 from €15.4 million in Q1 24/25, reflecting strong segment performance and favorable market conditions.

  • Net debt increased to €203.8 million as of September 30, 2025, due to negative free cash flow and ongoing investments, while equity ratio remained stable at 57.9%.

  • Net result improved to €-4.0 million from €-22.9 million year-over-year, with EPS at €-0.06 compared to €-0.36.

Financial highlights

  • Biodiesel segment EBITDA rose to €22.6 million, with improved gross margin and stable revenues at €244.1 million.

  • Bioethanol and biomethane segment losses reduced to €-9.5 million, mainly due to North American recovery and absence of prior year negative effects; segment revenue reached €191.2 million.

  • Group EBITDA margin improved to 3.5% from -1.8% year-over-year.

  • Operating cash flow was €-17.3 million, down from €-6.1 million year-over-year, mainly due to lower reduction in trade receivables and payables.

  • Cash and cash equivalents at quarter-end were €52.2 million, down €12.2 million from the start of the period.

Outlook and guidance

  • Guidance for FY 2025/2026 remains unchanged, targeting EBITDA in the high double-digit million euro range and moderate net debt reduction.

  • Management expects further market normalization in Europe and positive effects from the Nevada plant ramp-up in North America.

  • Full utilization at the Nevada plant is expected by Q4, with current utilization already at 80%.

  • Cautious planning regarding RED III quota prices, with upside potential if prices or bioethanol margins remain high.

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.
