Norsk Titanium (NTI) H2 2025 earnings summary

Executive summary

• Transitioned from a technology-led to a commercially driven, market-oriented enterprise in 2025, but did not meet prior commercial expectations due to delays in customer programs and slower transitions to serial production across aerospace, defense, and industrial markets.

• Achieved a major milestone with the inclusion of RPD® titanium material properties in the MMPDS Handbook, enhancing position in certified aerospace and defense applications.

• Hired a new CEO, Fabrizio Ponte, to drive customer adoption, accelerate part transitions, and scale revenue generation.

Financial highlights

• Total revenue and other income for 2025 was USD 4.1 million, down from USD 5.1 million in 2024, primarily due to a slowdown in semiconductor-related parts sales.

• Operating expenses increased to USD 33.4 million from USD 29.8 million year-over-year, reflecting higher costs to boost commercial and operational capabilities.

• EBITDA loss widened to USD 29.3 million from USD 24.7 million in 2024.

• Net loss after tax was USD 55.9 million, compared to a loss of USD 21.0 million in 2024, mainly due to a USD 24.8 million unrealized foreign exchange loss.

• Cash and cash equivalents decreased by USD 5.5 million, ending at USD 19.3 million.

Outlook and guidance

• Expects current qualifications to create a long-term pipeline of visible revenue, especially in commercial aerospace with 10+ year production runs.

• Anticipates accelerated adoption of RPD® technology due to rising titanium costs and reduced raw material availability.

• Plans to raise additional capital in 2026 to support ongoing operations and strategic priorities.
