Q3 2025 earnings summary29 Oct, 2025

Executive summary

  • Q3 2025 profitability was significantly impacted by exceptional events at two US factories, including equipment failure and flooding, resulting in a combined negative impact of EUR 2.8 million on results and a reduced outlook for the year.

  • Net sales for Q3 2025 declined 11% year-over-year to EUR 99.8 million, with a nine-month total of EUR 317.1 million, mainly due to lower volumes from US incidents and negative currency effects.

  • Comparable EBITDA for Q3 2025 was EUR 3.4 million (up from EUR 3.3 million in Q3 2024), but would have exceeded EUR 6 million excluding exceptional events.

  • Cash flow from operations improved significantly to EUR 15.7 million in Q3 2025, driven by improved working capital management.

  • Leadership changes included the appointment of Charles Héaulmé as President & CEO in August 2025 and François Guetta as COO effective November 2025.

Financial highlights

  • Q3 2025 net sales: EUR 99.8 million (down 11% year-over-year); nine-month net sales: EUR 317.1 million (down 8%).

  • Comparable EBITDA for Q3 2025: EUR 3.4 million (Q3 2024: EUR 3.3 million); nine months: EUR 10.7 million (down from EUR 12.8 million year-over-year).

  • Cash flow from operations: EUR 15.7 million in Q3 2025; EUR 5.2 million for the nine months.

  • Profit for Q3 2025: EUR -1.9 million; EPS: EUR -0.03.

  • Gross capital expenditure for the nine months was EUR 17.0 million, mainly for growth investments in the US and Spain.

Outlook and guidance

  • Full-year 2025 comparable EBITDA is now expected to be lower than 2024 (EUR 17.0 million), reflecting the impact of exceptional events and cautious Q4 expectations.

  • Q4 is typically a seasonally weaker quarter, with ongoing ramp-up after US incidents and short-term customer demand allocation expected to be slightly unfavorable.

  • Pricing is expected to remain stable in Q4 amid a competitive environment.

  • Slower-than-expected market recovery and plant incidents prompted the outlook revision.

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.
