However, the second quarter saw momentum slow due to international tariff measures and market uncertainty. Despite high raw material, energy and logistics costs, the EBITDA margin improved to 20 % (H1 2024: 12.5 %).

Lenzing’s performance program, targeting >EUR 180 mn in annual cost savings, delivered significant efficiency gains. Financing is secured until 2027 via a EUR 545 mn syndicated loan and EUR 500 mn hybrid bond.

The company confirms its 2025 EBITDA guidance but warns that ongoing trade conflicts and weak consumer sentiment could weigh on the remainder of the year. Lenzing continues to focus on specialty fibers and strengthening its leadership in sustainable fiber markets.
