Umicore upgrades guidance

Regional website Poland

Following a strong start in Q1 2025, performance continued to be very solid throughout the first half of the year. In this context and based on the information available to date, Umicore expects H1 Group adjusted EBITDA to come in somewhat above €420 million.

This primarily reflects:

  • Stronger-than-anticipated performance of the Catalysis Business Group.
  • A supportive metal price environment, particularly for minor and specialty metals, along with a favorable trading environment in the Recycling Business Group.
  • Strong contributions from efficiency improvements across the Group.  

Based on performance to date, assuming current metal prices, and barring major new upheavals in a context of persistent geopolitical tensions, Umicore confirms that it expects the Group’s adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2025 to be in the range of €790 million to €840 million, this compares with the previous expectations of €720 million to €780 million. 

On 1 August 2025 at 07.30 AM CEST Umicore will publish its Half Year Results 2025. An earnings call will be held the same day at 9.30 AM CEST, during which Bart Sap (CEO) and Wannes Peferoen (CFO) will comment on the results. The practical details will be made available shortly on the Umicore website – section Investor Relations.
