Yara reports second quarter 2025 EBITDA excluding special items[1] of USD 652
million compared with USD 513 million in second quarter 2024. Net income was USD
413 million compared with USD 3 million a year earlier.
Second quarter 2025 highlights:
· EBITDA excl. special items1 of 652 MUSD, up 27% from 2Q24
· Increased margins driven by commercial performance, record-high
production[2] and supportive market fundamentals
· Cost and capex reduction program ahead of schedule
· 1H adjusted earnings per share[3] at 1.92 USD - up from 0.64 USD last year
"We are pleased to report continued improvement in our results, driven by
increased margins, strong commercial execution and another quarter of all-time
high production performance. At the same time, we are ahead of plan in our cost
and capex reduction program," said Svein Tore Holsether, President and Chief
Executive Officer.
With the combination of cost reduction, portfolio optimization and a tightening
nitrogen markets, Yara's financial position is set to strengthen with increased
free cash flow and sustained profitability. This will enable improved
shareholder returns, both through direct cash distributions and re-investment in
value-accretive growth opportunities - such as renewing our ammonia portfolio
through ammonia projects in the US.
"Through disciplined capital allocation and a strong focus on resource
efficiency, Yara continues to enhance returns. Going forward, we continue to
take steps to expand margins by diversifying energy costs and leveraging scale
and operational efficiencies across our global network," said Holsether.
