St. Leon-Rot, May 19, 2026 – SLR Group GmbH, a leading supplier of high-quality ductile iron components, today published its figures for the third quarter and first nine months of the 25/26 financial year.

Net sales grew by 10.1% in the third quarter to EUR 56.4 million compared with the same quarter of the previous year (Q3 24/25: EUR 51.2 million). At the same time, tonnages sold in the third quarter of 25/26 rose by 14.7% to 28.9 kilotons, up from 25.2 kilotons in the same period of the previous year. In total, net sales for the first nine months of 25/26 increased to EUR 155.4 million (9M 24/25: EUR 139.1 million), while tonnages sold rose to 78.7 kilotons (9M 24/25: 67.4 kilotons).

On the earnings side, the SLR Group generated adjusted EBITDA of EUR 2.9 million in the third quarter of 25/26, matching the level of the same quarter last year. This resulted in an adjusted EBITDA margin of 5.3% (Q3 24/25: 5.7%). In total, adjusted EBITDA for the first nine months of 25/26 amounted to EUR 12.9 million, representing an increase of 14.6% compared to the same period last year (9M 24/25: EUR 11.3 million).

Gunnar Halden, CFO of the SLR Group, states: “Our sales and tonnages sold once again showed a very positive trend in the third quarter of 25/26. We continued to benefit primarily from stabilizing trends in the agricultural and construction sectors. Overall, however, market conditions in our core markets remain mixed. Current industry indicators continue to point more toward a stabilization phase than a broad-based recovery.”

For the current financial year 25/26, the SLR Group expects that, due to the positive order trend, total production and tonnages sold will now be in the range of 110 kilotons, which is significantly higher than the figures for financial year 24/25. At the same time, the SLR Group is refining its forecast for adjusted EBITDA and now expects a range of EUR 18 million to EUR 19 million, reflecting ongoing price pressure and temporary operational inefficiencies.

Jörg Rumikewitz, CEO of the SLR Group, with regard to the current financial year: “Order intake remains robust across our sales regions, and our customers continue to rely on our high-quality ductile iron components. In light of ongoing geopolitical and economic uncertainties, we are currently focusing primarily on operational stability, further productivity gains, and disciplined capital allocation. Overall, we are optimistic about the remainder of financial year 25/26.”

The report for the third quarter 25/26 is now available on the company website at slr-gruppe.de/en//investor-relations.
