Klöckner & Co Reports Doubling of Operating Income in Q3 2025

Klöckner & Co SE has announced that its operating income before material special effects has doubled in the third quarter of 2025, reaching €43 million compared to €21 million in the same quarter the previous year. Shipments saw a slight increase of 1.9%, totaling 1.1 million metric tons. However, sales slightly declined by 2.2% to €1.6 billion, influenced by price factors.

The company has continued to focus on high value-added and service center business, highlighted by the sale of eight U.S. distribution sites. Despite a net loss improvement to €13 million in Q3 2025 from €29 million a year prior, issues like a €33 million negative impact due to special effects still persist.

For the whole of 2025, Klöckner & Co maintains an EBITDA forecast of €170 million to €240 million, expecting strong cash flow results. The strategic focus remains on investing in higher-margin areas and technology, evident from recent developments in their defense sector services.
