The earnings call reflected a challenging environment with significant declines in sales and EBITDA, particularly in the Coatis and soda ash segments. Despite these challenges, the company is making progress with cost-saving initiatives and maintaining a healthy leverage ratio. However, the challenges seem to outweigh the positive elements, indicating a difficult market situation.
Company Guidance
In the Solvay Half Year 2025 Results Conference, the company provided guidance amidst a challenging market environment. Solvay revised its 2025 EBITDA forecast to between EUR 880 million and EUR 930 million, factoring in current foreign exchange levels and market conditions. The company expects a sequential decline in Q3 2025 EBITDA, attributed to global tariff discussions, geopolitical tensions, and a soft market environment, notably impacting soda ash and Coatis business units. Despite these challenges, Solvay remains committed to its EUR 300 million free cash flow target for the year, driven by cost-saving initiatives and working capital management. Additionally, the company plans to limit capital expenditures to EUR 300 million in 2025 to navigate the current economic landscape, while maintaining its strategic focus on long-term transformation and sustainability goals.
Cost-Saving Initiatives
Structural cost-saving initiatives delivered EUR 29 million in the second quarter, bringing the 2025 savings to EUR 55 million and EUR 165 million in total since the beginning of 2024. The company expects to exceed the intermediary target of EUR 200 million by the end of 2025.
Performance Chemicals Segment Resilience
Thanks to a one-off gain, the Performance Chemicals segment EBITDA was up 9% compared to an already strong Q2 2024, and the EBITDA margin increased year-on-year to 24%.
Free Cash Flow Target Confirmation
Solvay confirms that free cash flow from continuing operations to shareholders will be around EUR 300 million for 2025.
Healthy Leverage Ratio
The leverage ratio remained healthy at 1.9 at the end of Q2 2025.
