Q3 2025 earnings summary
8 Jul, 2026Executive summary
Achieved adjusted EBITDA of $191 million and adjusted net income of $0.06 per share in Q3 2025, with higher sales of produced product offset by lower realized prices compared to Q2 2025.
Completed integration of newly acquired Beaumont and Natgasoline assets, which operated at high rates and contributed significantly to production.
Production increased to 2,212,000 tonnes in Q3 2025 from 1,621,000 tonnes in Q2 2025, driven by new assets and higher output from Geismar, Medicine Hat, and New Zealand.
Global methanol demand remained flat quarter-over-quarter, with high operating rates in China and increased supply from Iran leading to inventory builds.
Net loss attributable to shareholders was $7 million, with adjusted net income of $5 million.
Financial highlights
Q3 average realized price was $345 per ton; produced methanol sales reached approximately 1.9 million tons.
Revenue for Q3 2025 was $927 million, up from $797 million in Q2 2025.
Adjusted EBITDA rose sequentially due to higher sales volumes, despite lower average realized prices.
Ended Q3 with $413 million in cash on the balance sheet after repaying $125 million of the Term Loan A facility; maintained access to a $600 million revolving credit facility.
Cash from operations totaled $184 million in Q3 2025.
Outlook and guidance
Forecasts Q4 average realized price between $335 and $345 per ton based on posted prices.
Expects meaningfully higher adjusted EBITDA in Q4 2025 as sales align with run-rate equity production from new assets.
2025 equity production guidance is approximately 8 million tons (7.8 million methanol, 0.2 million ammonia), subject to operational variables.
No significant growth capital anticipated over the next few years; focus remains on deleveraging and financial flexibility.
