**Verbio reduces EBITDA forecast for 2024/25; expectation of net financial debt of max. EUR 190 million unchanged  

  

Leipzig, January 15, 2025 –** Due to unforeseen technical quality problems at the existing plant in Nevada, the Management Board came to the conclusion that Verbio North America will not be able to make a slightly positive contribution to EBITDA in the financial year 2024/25 as previously planned.

In addition, after a thorough review, the Management Board assumes that the prices of GHG quotas for open GHG volumes will not recover sufficiently by the end of the financial year to offset the negative EBITDA result from the first quarter of the current financial year and the lower-than-planned GHG quota prices contracted to minimize risk. The Management Board is optimistic that the recovery in quota prices that is already observed will accelerate over the course of the year. An impairment of GHG quotas is not expected.

Verbio is therefore adjusting its forecast for the 2024/25 financial year and now expects an EBITDA result in the mid double-digit million range (previously: EUR 120 million to EUR 160 million). Expectation for net financial debt at the end of the financial year remains unchanged at a maximum of EUR 190 million.
