Verbio increases EBITDA forecast for the financial year 2025/2026

Leipzig, March 25, 2026 – Based on the business performance to date as well as the current level of sales and raw material prices, the Management Board expects to achieve earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of approximately EUR 100-140 million in the financial year 2025/2026. Strong demand for low-emission biofuels drives persistently high sales prices, supported by an increasingly favourable regulatory environment, particularly for conventional biofuels, and by geopolitical factors.

Net financial debt is expected to decrease by the end of the financial year to approximately EUR 140 million.

The forecast is set out with a broad range, as the geopolitical environment remains dynamic.

In its latest forecast, the company expected EBITDA to be at the upper end of the high double‑digit million-euro range, along with a moderate reduction in net financial debt compared to the prior‑year level of EUR 164 million.
