In the given quarter, the company posted a net loss of €23.3 million, compared to a net loss of €150.2 million in the previous year, while the company’s sales revenues amounted to €2.12 billion, down by 7.4 percent year on year. In addition, Salzgitter’s EBITDA for the fourth quarter rose to €152.3 million, compared to €124.6 million in the same quarter of 2024.
In the given year, the company posted a net loss of €69.8 million, compared to a net loss of €347.9 million in the previous year, while the company’s sales revenues amounted to €8.98 billion, down by 10.3 percent year on year. In addition, Salzgitter’s EBITDA for 2025 amounted to €376.3 million, compared to €445.2 million in 2024.
In the fourth quarter, the company’s crude steel production totaled 1.48 million mt, dropping by 3.7 percent from 1.53 million mt recorded in the same quarter of the previous year, while in 2025 its crude steel production fell by eight percent year on year to 5.88 million mt.
According to Salzgitter’s statement, Germany’s economic situation remains tense, also at the outset of 2026. The government’s planned investment and infrastructure programs have not yet resulted in a marked economic recovery. Instead, it anticipates positive stimulus for the domestic steel industry from the EU’s trade defense measures. All in all, Salzgitter expects only moderate improvement in the economic environment.
As for 2026, the company expects its sales revenues to be about €9.5 billion.
