Press Release: AMG Reports a Solid Set of Full Year 2025 Results

Dow Jones02-26

Amsterdam, 25 February 2026 (Regulated Information) --- AMG Critical Materials N.V. ("AMG", EURONEXT AMSTERDAM: "AMG") reports full year adjusted EBITDA of $235 million in 2025, a 40% increase compared to the 2024 adjusted EBITDA of $168 million, driven primarily by our Antimony and Engineering businesses. We ended the year with a strong balance sheet highlighted by our $484 million of total liquidity as of December 31, 2025.

Dr. Heinz Schimmelbusch, Chairman of the Management Board and CEO, said, "In 2025, we achieved the third highest adjusted EBITDA in the Company's history despite weakness in lithium and vanadium. This flexible response to a changing market environment highlights the quality and the breadth of our critical materials and technologies portfolio. Governments are pushing for onshoring of critical materials supply, creating significant opportunities to grow our business.

AMG is focused on capital light, high return projects that expand its geographic and critical material bases. For example, we are expanding our footprint in US critical materials with a high-purity chrome metal facility which is set to come online in the first half of 2026. Moreover, the Management Board plans to strengthen AMG's critical materials recycling franchise in three ways. First, it plans to develop a circular high-purity molybdenum processing facility for fresh refining catalysts by 2029. Second, we are strengthening our lithium cluster in Germany by accepting recycled lithium carbonate and converting it to technical-grade hydroxide for use in Bitterfeld's main upgrading facility. And third, Phase I of our "Supercenter" project in Saudi Arabia is currently under construction, and commissioning is targeted for the second half of 2028.

Looking ahead, our operational focus will be on compensating for the temporary benefit from selling low-priced inventories of more than $70 million in Antimony in 2025. Thanks to the recent tailwinds from pricing as well as volume increases in our vanadium and lithium businesses, we are optimistic about maintaining our attractive earnings level. Based on our detailed scenario planning, we expect 2026 adjusted EBITDA in the range of $210 to $240 million. The first quarter of 2026 will represent the trough of our earnings cycle as higher pricing begins to impact EBITDA in the second quarter and our volumes ramp in the second half of 2026."

AMG Lithium B.V.

   -- The refinery in Bitterfeld has continued to ramp up its production, 
      producing in specification battery-grade lithium hydroxide and 
      progressing with customer qualification as planned. We have dispatched 
      kilogram samples to all cathode active materials $(CAM)$ manufacturers with 
      a footprint in Europe at the end of 2025, initiating the first stage of 
      qualification. Based on customer feedback, we anticipate moving on to the 
      next stage of qualification involving the shipment of tons in the first 
      half of 2026, and expect to reach full production capacity in the second 
      half of 2026. 
 
   -- AMG Lithium is starting engineering on a 5,000-ton lithium carbonate to 
      lithium hydroxide conversion plant at its Bitterfeld site. This plant 
      will be designed to accept recycled lithium carbonate, and convert it to 
      technical-grade hydroxide for use in Bitterfeld's main upgrading 
      facility. The plant's capital cost is expected to be $50 million, and as 
      announced in December 2025, 20% of the costs of the plant will be 
      supported by a funding grant from the German Federal Ministry for 
      Economic Affairs and Energy. 

AMG Vanadium B.V.

   -- SARBV's development with Advanced Circular Materials Company (ACMC) 
      "Supercenter" Phase 1 project in Saudi Arabia has begun construction and 
      is moving to final documentation on a non-recourse project financing. 
      AMG's equity commitment to the project will be $30 million, and AMG is 
      the sole offtaker of the planned 8 million pounds of V2O5 produced by the 
      plant. 

AMG Technologies

   -- As announced in January 2026, AMG LIVA will install its industrial 
      battery, the Hybrid Energy Storage System ("Hybrid ESS"), at Aramco's 
      existing solar plant in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia. AMG LIVA's Hybrid ESS can 
      help reduce the carbon emissions of the energy supply and potentially 
      support independence from the grid at any time of the day, thereby 
      advancing carbon emissions reduction goals, increasing the deployment of 
      renewable energy, and enhancing energy storage capabilities. 
 
   -- AMG and Asbury Carbons signed a definitive agreement in October 2025 to 
      sell Graphit Kropfmühl GmbH (AMG Graphite) to Asbury Carbons. The 
      transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals. As such, German 
      FDI is proceeding to a formal Phase II and we now expect the official 
      closing to take place in the second quarter of 2026. 
 
   -- AMG Silicon closed its operations on December 31, 2025 following a 
      significant period of operational challenges and extensive economic 
      evaluation. 

Financial Highlights

   -- AMG's adjusted gross profit of $337 million in 2025 increased 31% 
      compared to 2024, largely driven by AMG Technologies' strong performance 
      during 2025, particularly by AMG Antimony. 
 
   -- AMG delivered a full year 2025 adjusted EBITDA of $235 million, 40% 
      higher than the $168 million in the prior year. This result was the third 
      highest adjusted EBITDA in the Company's history. 
 
   -- Fourth quarter gross profit of $58 million was 27% lower than the $79 
      million in the same period of 2024. This decrease was primarily due to 
      one-off restructuring costs for our Silicon business as well as the 45X 
      effect noted below. 
 
   -- Fourth quarter 2025 adjusted EBITDA of $43 million was 26% lower than the 
      $58 million in the same period of 2024. This decrease was primarily due 
      to the recognition of incremental 45X allowances in the fourth quarter of 
      2024. 
 
   -- AMG recorded an unusually high income tax expense of $43 million for the 
      fourth quarter of 2025, up from $8 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. 
      The increase is primarily attributable to a significant non-cash 
      derecognition of net operating loss carryforwards in the US and to a 
      lesser extent in Germany. Although the $41 million incremental charge is 
      consistent with IFRS accounting rules, AMG management believes we can 
      recover this operating loss carryforward. Therefore, we provided an 
      adjusted net income figure for comparison's sake. This adjusted net 
      income number also adds back the tax-adjusted Silicon restructuring cost. 
 
   -- Strong cash generation during the fourth quarter of 2025 resulted in $76 
      million in operating cash flow for full year 2025, double the $38 million 
      in 2024. Our cash generation would have been even stronger if we had 
      received the cash for the 45X allowances as planned. Due to the 
      government shutdown last year, we now expect to book this cash in 2026. 
 
   -- The total 2025 dividend proposal is EUR0.40 per ordinary share, including 
      the interim dividend of EUR0.20, which was paid on August 15, 2025.

AMG Lithium's revenue increased 16% compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily driven by higher lithium and tantalum market prices, as well as a 35% increase in tantalum sales volumes. These impacts were partially offset by lower lithium concentrate sales volumes versus the fourth quarter of 2024. On a full year basis, lower annual average lithium market prices and lower lithium concentrate sales volumes in 2025 largely drove the 10% decrease in full year revenue compared to 2024.

SG&A expenses of $13 million during the fourth quarter of 2025 were 17% higher than in the same period of 2024, while full year 2025 SG&A expenses of $51 million were 14% higher than in 2024. Both of these variances were mainly driven by the increase in personnel costs related to the commissioning and ramp-up of the lithium hydroxide refinery.

The fourth quarter 2025 adjusted EBITDA decreased 87% compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily due to the lower lithium concentrate volumes in the current quarter and higher mining costs related to poor quality ore. Full year 2025 adjusted EBITDA decreased from $24 million to $12 million, driven primarily by the 16% decrease in annual average lithium prices in 2025 compared to 2024, as well as the lower lithium concentrate sales volumes in the current period.

During the fourth quarter of 2025, a total of 28,326 dry metric tons ("dmt") of lithium concentrates were sold, 84% more than the 15,409 dmt in the third quarter of 2025, but 15% less than the 33,492 dmt in the fourth quarter of 2024. During the quarter, poor quality ore caused recoveries to drop, reducing production volumes. During 2025, a total of 69,180 dmt of lithium concentrates were sold, 22% less than the 88,966 dmt in 2024, due primarily to the failure of one piece of equipment in the second quarter of 2025 associated with our expansion project.

The average realized sales price was $689/dmt CIF China for the fourth quarter of 2025, and the average realized sales price for the year was $632/dmt CIF China. The average cost per ton for the current quarter was $489/dmt CIF China. The average cost per ton increased from $290/dmt in the fourth quarter of 2024 due to the lower volumes and higher cost of mining activities in the current quarter. The average cost per ton for full year 2025 was $488/dmt CIF China compared to $458/dmt CIF China for 2024.

AMG Vanadium's revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 increased by 8%, to $157 million, due primarily to increased volumes of chrome metal and titanium alloys, partially offset by lower volumes of ferrovanadium. Full year 2025 revenue was materially unchanged compared to the prior year.

SG&A expenses of $18 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 were 24% higher than the same period in 2024, largely driven by higher professional fees and additional personnel in the current period relating to the chrome expansion project. Full year 2025 SG&A expenses of $71 million were a 27% increase from the prior year. This variance was primarily due to the higher personnel costs in the current period associated with the chrome expansion project, as well as the non-recurring executive retirement benefit expense incurred during the second quarter of 2025.

The fourth quarter of 2025 adjusted EBITDA of $11 million was 64% lower than the same period in 2024. This decrease was primarily due to the recognition of incremental 45X allowances in the fourth quarter of 2024. Lower volumes of ferrovanadium and lower sales prices in chrome metal noted above added to the year-over-year headwind. Full year adjusted EBITDA decreased from $76 million in 2024 to $59 million in 2025, primarily due to the reduced availability of spent catalysts driven by refinery shutdowns in the US.

AMG Technologies' fourth quarter 2025 revenue increased by $66 million, or 40%, compared to the same period in 2024. This improvement was driven largely by higher antimony sales prices in the current quarter as well as by strong sales in Engineering. Revenue for the segment in 2025 increased 46% compared to the prior year due to the strong revenues in Engineering and higher sales prices of antimony for the current period.

SG&A expenses in the fourth quarter 2025 of $28 million were 34% higher than in the fourth quarter of 2024. This was due to additional personnel at AMG LIVA, as well as higher professional fees and higher personnel costs at AMG Antimony related to that unit's increased sales activity. Full year 2025 SG&A expenses of $101 million were 21% higher than in 2024, due to the aforementioned increased personnel costs.

AMG Technologies' adjusted EBITDA was $31 million during the fourth quarter, compared to the $20 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase was due to higher profitability in AMG Antimony and AMG Engineering. Full year 2025 adjusted EBITDA for the segment was $164 million, more than double the $68 million in the prior year, largely driven by the higher profitability in AMG Antimony and AMG Engineering.

AMG Engineering signed $72 million in new orders during the fourth quarter of 2025. The 2025 order intake of $317 million was driven by exceptionally strong orders of turbine blade coating and induction furnaces. This represents a 0.95x book to bill ratio, which is below the 1.27x in 2024 but still an exceptionally strong result. AMG Engineering achieved an order backlog of $370 million as of December 31, 2025.

AMG Silicon closed its operations on December 31, 2025 following a significant period of operational challenges and extensive economic evaluation. As in prior periods, AMG Silicon's operations are excluded from adjusted EBITDA.

Financial Review

Tax

AMG recorded an income tax expense of $43 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, up from $8 million in 2024. The increase is primarily attributable to a significant derecognition of net operating loss carryforwards in the US and to a lesser extent in Germany which increased tax expense by $41 million. This increase in tax expense was partially offset by a deferred tax benefit in Brazil, resulting from the appreciation of the Brazilian Real.

Cash tax payments totaled $20 million in 2025, compared to $19 million in 2024. Despite significantly higher profitability in 2025, cash taxes paid remained stable due to the lag in paying cash taxes in our Antimony business in France.

AMG's fourth quarter 2025 SG&A expenses of $59 million were 27% higher than in the fourth quarter of 2024. Full year 2025 SG&A expenses were $223 million, 21% higher than the $184 million in 2024. These variances were primarily driven by the increase in headcount in our Lithium, Chrome, and LIVA businesses associated with our strategic expansion projects, higher personnel costs at AMG Antimony related to that unit's increased sales activity, higher professional fees associated with project development costs, and the non-recurring executive retirement benefit expense incurred at AMG Vanadium during the second quarter of 2025.

AMG continued to maintain a strong balance sheet and adequate sources of liquidity during the fourth quarter. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $289 million in cash and cash equivalents, $11 million of which is related to the expected sale of AMG Graphite to Asbury Carbons and therefore classified within assets held for sale on the consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2025. With the $195 million available on its revolving credit facility, AMG had $484 million of total liquidity as of December 31, 2025.

Net Finance Costs

AMG's fourth quarter 2025 net finance cost was $15 million, compared to $13 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, due to a decrease in interest income as well as an increase in interest expense. This was partially offset by decreased quarter over quarter non-cash intercompany foreign exchange losses from a stronger EUR/USD exchange rate. AMG's full year 2025 net finance cost was $53 million, compared to $43 million in 2024, due to a decrease in interest income as well as an increase in interest expense. This was partially offset by decreased non-cash intercompany foreign exchange losses from a stronger EUR/USD exchange rate.

Final Dividend Proposal

AMG intends to declare a dividend of EUR0.40 per ordinary share over the financial year 2025. The interim dividend of EUR0.20, paid on August 15, 2025, will be deducted from the amount to be distributed to shareholders. The proposed final dividend per ordinary share therefore amounts to EUR0.20.

A proposal to resolve upon the final dividend distribution will be included on the agenda for the Annual General Meeting to be held on May 7, 2026.

Outlook

We anticipate our headcount to be approximately 3,200 in 2026, down from approximately 3,600 at the end of 2025 due to the forthcoming sale of AMG Graphite and the closure of AMG Silicon's operations.

Capital expenditures for 2026 are projected to be approximately $70 to $90 million, primarily driven by the targeted growth investments in the Vanadium and Lithium segments.

Our current liquidity is $484 million. AMG has no significant near-term debt maturities. The $434 million term loan matures in November 2028 and the $307 million municipal bond matures in July 2049. In July 2025, to preserve our liquidity and reduce refinancing risk, AMG executed a maturity extension on our $200 million revolving credit facility. The revolver maturity date was extended from November 2026 to August 2028 with terms similar to the original agreement.

Pricing for many of our materials have strengthened in early 2026 and the backlog in our Engineering business has sustained historically high levels. However, given the lag of the pricing effect falling through our P&L, this tailwind will start supporting our adjusted EBITDA beginning in the second quarter of 2026 and as a result, we expect the first quarter of 2026 to be down sequentially.

Our detailed scenario planning results in an adjusted EBITDA range of $210 to $240 million for 2026.

(Notes:)

(1) The Company is in the initial development and ramp-up phases for several strategic expansion projects, including the joint venture with Shell, the LIVA Battery System, and the lithium expansion in Germany, which incurred project expenses during the quarter but are not yet operational. AMG is adjusting EBITDA for these exceptional charges.
