Südzucker expects significant decline in earnings in the second quarter of the current financial year 2025/26

After a slow start to the second quarter of the 2025/26 financial year, Südzucker AG expects a significant decline in EBITDA and operating result for the second quarter (1 June to 31 August 2025) compared to the previous year's level (Q2 2024/25: EBITDA: EUR 190 million; operating result: EUR 114 million).

Forecast for the current financial year 2025/26 confirmed
Südzucker confirms the forecast, published on 11 February 2025, for the financial year 2025/26 (1 March 2025 to 28 February 2026) and expects a moderate decline in group revenues between EUR 8.7 and 9.2 billion. Group EBITDA is expected between EUR 525 and 675 million and group operating result is expected between EUR 150 and 300 million. This forecast is generally based on the assumption that the EU sugar price level, which has been significantly reduced since October 2024, will improve considerably from the 2025/26 sugar marketing year (October 2025 to September 2026).

Also, in this forecast for the 2025/26 financial year, it remains important to acknowledge that the future business performance of the Südzucker Group continues to be subject to significant uncertainties due to the ongoing geopolitical and global economic developments.
