Glencore introduces 2025 half-year financial scorecard
- $5.4 billion Adjusted EBITDA, down 14% and Industrial Adjusted EBITDA of $3.8 billion, down 17%, both primarily reflecting weaker coal (thermal and steelmaking) prices and lower copper volumes
- Marketing Adjusted EBIT of $1.4 billion, down 8%. An overall solid result against a macroeconomic environment that was heavily influenced by US tariff policy uncertainty and tensions in the Middle East
- Funds from operations (FFO) of $3.2 billion, down 22%, primarily due to the lower H1 2025 Industrial Adjusted EBITDA, compounded by interest payments becoming increasingly more weighted to H1 vs H2, given the timing of our (mainly Q2) capital market bond issuances and related coupon due dates in recent years
- Net cash purchase and sale of PP&E: $3.2 billion compared to $2.9 billion in the prior period; Ex-EVR was below H1 2024
- Net income attributable to equity holders pre-significant items: $0.6 billion; Net loss attributable to equity holders: $0.7 billion
- Adjusted EBITDA mining margins were 24% in our metals operations, 35% in steelmaking coal and 18% in energy coal
BALANCE SHEET
