Elmos Semiconductor SE: Encouraging order development and strong free cash flow in the third quarter of 2025 – free cash flow guidance for the full year increased

Sales reach 140.8 million Euro in the third quarter 2025 – EBIT margin at 22.5% with significantly improved adjusted free cash flow of 32.5 million Euro

Leverkusen, November 4, 2025: Elmos Semiconductor SE (FSE: ELG) showed a robust development in the third quarter of 2025 and managed to significantly improve EBIT and the adjusted free cash flow compared to the previous quarter. Due to the migration to the new SAP S/4HANA system and a corresponding shift of orders from the third to the fourth quarter, sales were slightly down quarter-on-quarter at 140.8 million Euro (Q2 2025: 145.7 million Euro). The system-related shift in sales has no impact on the sales guidance for the full year 2025. Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) in the third quarter were 31.7 million Euro, above the previous quarter (Q2 2025: 30.1 million Euro). The EBIT margin was also above the previous quarter at 22.5% (Q2 2025: 20.6%). Capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment and intangible assets less capitalized development expenses amounted to 5.9 million Euro or 4.2% of sales, remaining at the low level of the previous quarter (Q2 2025: 4.6 million Euro or 3.2% of sales). At 32.5 million Euro or 23.1% of sales, adjusted free cash flow developed very positively in the third quarter. In the first nine months, adjusted free cash flow reached 54.6 million Euro or 13.2% of sales.

“Order intake continued to develop positively in the past quarter, and the signs that inventory adjustments are coming to an end and that order volumes are returning to normal levels are clearly visible,” explains Dr. Arne Schneider, CEO of Elmos Semiconductor SE. “We are continuing to work consistently on implementing our operational and strategic agenda for profitable growth and higher cash generation. Thanks to our innovative product portfolio and our excellent positioning as a fabless company, we expect a strong final quarter and are also very confident about the coming year,” Dr. Arne Schneider continues.

For the fiscal year 2025, Elmos expects sales of 580 million Euro ± 20 million Euro. The company continues to expect an EBIT margin in the lower half of the guidance range of 23% ± 3 percentage points of sales. Elmos forecasts capital expenditures in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets less capitalized development expenses in the lower half of the guidance range of 7% ± 2 percentage points of sales. For fiscal year 2025, Elmos now expects a positive adjusted free cash flow of 10% ± 2 percentage points of sales (previously: 7% ± 2 percentage points of sales) and thus significantly above the level of the prior year. The guidance is based on an exchange rate of 1.15 EUR/USD.
