Metlen Energy & Metals Records Exceptional H1 2025 Growth
Remarkable Growth for Metlen Energy & Metals in H1 2025
Metlen Achieves Record H1 Turnover and Extraordinary Profitability
Metlen Energy & Metals has announced impressive financial results for the first half of 2025. Achieving a turnover of €3,608 million marks a 45% increase compared to €2,482 million during the same period in 2024.
Through this significant growth, the company showcases its strong momentum in both the Energy and Metals sectors. Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA) reached €445 million, a slight decline from €474 million in H1 2024 due to a one-off impact from their non-core M Power Projects segment. However, on a normalized basis, EBITDA could have been about €577 million if excluding that impact.
Insight into Financial Performance
The net profit after accounting for minority interests was €254 million compared to €282 million in H1 2024. The corresponding Earnings per Share came in at €1.81, down from €2.04 the previous year. Meanwhile, net debt stood at €2,016 million, adjusted to exclude non-recourse debt.
Overall, Metlen performed remarkably well in its Metals Sector and continued its positive growth trajectory in the Energy Sector, despite some challenges from the M Power Projects. The company’s ability to leverage operations and integrate efforts across sectors displayed their strength in navigating a volatile market landscape.

"The year 2025 is proving to be transformative for Metlen. Our listing on the London Stock Exchange signifies a new chapter in our journey, focused on growth and expanding our international presence."
At the recent Capital Markets Day, Metlen revealed a medium-term growth strategy, showcasing new initiatives aimed at long-term value generation. Notably, the launch of a gallium production line intends to address Europe’s demand comprehensively.
Strategic Pillars and Innovation
Additional strategic goals include an expansion into the defense sector by developing new facilities and introducing Circular Metals, which is an innovative method for recovering critical raw materials from waste. Through these initiatives, Metlen aims to solidify its role as a pivotal player in advancing sustainability within the energy and metallurgy industries.
Ultimately, the robust financial outcomes for H1 2025 solidify Metlen’s strong foothold in the market since its corporate transformation in 2022.
