Caesarstone Ltd., a prominent developer and manufacturer of high-quality engineered surfaces, specializes in premium countertops for both indoor and outdoor spaces, serving over 50 countries worldwide. The company recently released its financial results for the second quarter of 2025, highlighting a challenging period with decreased revenues and increased net losses compared to the previous year.
In the second quarter of 2025, Caesarstone reported a revenue of $101.1 million, a decline from $119.4 million in the same quarter last year, primarily due to lower volumes and global economic headwinds. The gross margin also fell to 19.6% from 22.9% in the previous year, attributed to lower production volumes and an unfavorable product mix. Operating expenses were reduced to $32.5 million, but the company still faced an operating loss of $12.6 million, up from a $9.3 million loss in the prior year.
The company’s adjusted EBITDA showed a loss of $6.4 million, reflecting the financial challenges it faces amidst competitive pressures and currency fluctuations. Despite these setbacks, Caesarstone has implemented cost reduction measures expected to save $10 million annually, starting in the latter half of 2025, and continues to focus on strategic transformation initiatives to improve profitability.
Looking ahead, Caesarstone remains confident in its restructuring plan and cost-saving initiatives to navigate current market challenges and drive long-term value. Management is committed to aligning its cost structure and enhancing its production footprint to better position the company for future growth.
