Borregaard ASA: EBITDA1 of NOK 511 million in the 1st quarter

Written by Customer Service on . Posted in Earnings Releases And Operating Results.

Borregaard’s operating revenues increased to NOK 2,036 million (NOK 1,975 million)2 in the 1st quarter of 2025. EBITDA1 reached NOK 511 million (NOK 442 million). The result in BioSolutions increased, BioMaterials had a result in line with the corresponding quarter last year and Fine Chemicals had a lower result.

Strong sales to agriculture were the main reason for the all-time high result in BioSolutions. For BioMaterials, higher sales prices were offset by lower sales volume, increased wood costs, and cost increases in general. Lower sales prices for bioethanol were the main reason for the weaker result in Fine Chemicals. The net currency effects were positive.

Profit before tax was NOK 319 million (NOK 261 million). Earnings per share were NOK 2.52 (NOK 2.01).

– We are pleased to report an all-time high result for BioSolutions. Our specialisation strategy has demonstrated resilience amid challenging macroeconomic conditions and will remain the key driver of our future success, says President and CEO Per A. Sørlie.
