Dr. Marco Levi, Ferroglobe’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our first quarter adjusted EBITDA was negative, in line with our budget, reflecting the uncertain market environment. We anticipate significant improvement from the second quarter forward. Despite the soft quarter, Ferroglobe again generated positive free cash flow. We used this cash to pay increased dividends and repurchase shares, while maintaining a strong balance sheet with no net debt.
“One of the reasons for our optimistic outlook for the coming quarters is driven by our belief that we are at or near the market trough. This, combined with supportive trade actions in the U.S., including various trade measures, such as the final ferrosilicon determination, a newly filed petition by the U.S. silicon metal producers against unfair competition by imports, positions us well there. In the EU, expected safeguard measures covering all our main products should begin to benefit us in the second half. We expect improving demand to translate into higher revenues. We believe that once these uncertainties are resolved, local producers like Ferroglobe will be well-positioned to take advantage of these opportunities and regain market share,” concluded Dr. Levi.
Consolidated Sales
In the first quarter of 2025, Ferroglobe reported sales of $307.2 million, a decrease of 16.4% over the prior quarter and a decrease of 21.6% from the comparable prior year period. This decrease compared to the prior quarter was primarily attributable to lower sales volumes in silicon metal and manganese-based alloys and lower pricing in all our portfolio products, partially offset by higher volumes sold in silicon-based alloys. Sales of silicon metal and manganese-based alloys declined by $56.7 million and $4.0 million, respectively, while silicon-based alloys increased by $5.8 million, compared with the prior quarter.

Silicon metal revenue in the first quarter was $104.6 million, a decrease of 35.2% over the prior quarter. The average selling price decreased by 11.1%, and shipments decreased by 27.1% due to lower volumes, mainly in EMEA, compared to the prior quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for silicon metal decreased to $(15.4) million for the first quarter, compared with $16.8 million for the prior quarter. In addition to lower prices, adjusted EBITDA margin further decreased mainly due to cost deterioration attributed to volume declines, lower fixed cost absorption and higher energy costs.

Silicon-based alloy revenue in the first quarter was $90.9 million, an increase of 6.8% over the prior quarter. The average selling price decreased by 1.8% and shipments increased by 8.7% compared to the prior quarter. Volumes increased due to higher demand in the US. Adjusted EBITDA for silicon-based alloys decreased to $2.4 million for the first quarter of 2025, a decrease of 22.0% compared with $3.1 million for the prior quarter. The adjusted EBITDA margin decrease was primarily driven by decline in prices.
Manganese-Based Alloys
| ($,000) | Q1 2025 | Q4 2024 | % Q/Q | Q1 2024 | % Y/Y | |||||||||||||
| Shipments in metric tons: | 67,229 | 67,712 | (0.7 | )% | 62,320 | 7.9 | % | |||||||||||

Manganese-based alloy revenue in the first quarter was $74.5 million, a decrease of 5.1% over the prior quarter. The average selling price decreased by 4.4% and shipments were essentially flat compared to the prior quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for the manganese-based alloys portfolio decreased to $(5.6) million for the first quarter, compared with $7.1 million in the prior quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased mainly due to higher energy costs and idling in France.
Raw materials and energy consumption for production
Raw materials and energy consumption for production was $238.3 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $250.8 million in the prior quarter, a decrease of 5.0%. As a percentage of sales, raw materials and energy consumption for production was 77.6% in the first quarter of 2025, compared to 68.2% in the fourth quarter. The increase in costs as percentage of sales was driven by lower pricing and higher energy costs.
Net (Loss) Income Attributable to the Parent
In the first quarter of 2025, net loss attributable to the parent was $(66.5) million, or $(0.36) per diluted share, compared to a net loss attributable to the parent of $(28.1) million, or $(0.15) per diluted share in the prior quarter. This decrease is primarily attributable to reduced prices across our product portfolio and shipments of our main products. The Company reported adjusted diluted earnings per share of $(0.20) for the first quarter, compared with adjusted earnings per share of $0.03 per share in the prior quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA was $(26.8) million for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $9.8 million for the prior quarter. The decrease was mainly driven by lower pricing and higher energy costs.

(1) Total cash is comprised of restricted cash and cash and cash equivalents
(2) Adjusted gross debt excludes bank borrowings on our factoring program and the impact of leasing standard IFRS16
(3) Total working capital is comprised of inventories, trade receivables and other receivables minus trade and other payables
Total cash was $129.6 million as of March 31, 2025, down $3.7 million from $133.3 million as of December 31, 2024. Adjusted gross debt increased by $16.0 million to $110.4 million, resulting in net cash of $19.2 million as of March 31, 2025.
During the first quarter cash flows from operating activities were $19.4 million and net cash used in investing activities was $23.0 million. Cash used in financing activities was $2.8 million as a result of lease payments of $3.1 million, dividend payments of $2.6 million and interest payments of $4.5 million. Share repurchases of $2.7 million and repayment of other financing liabilities of $22.7 million were partially offset by net cash proceeds from promissory notes of $4.0 million and financing facilities in the US and South Africa of $30.3 million.
Total working capital was $435.7 million as of March 31, 2025, down from $460.8 million on December 31, 2024. The $25.1 million decrease in working capital balance during the quarter was due to a $32.3 million decrease in inventories and an increase in trade and other payables by $17.7 million, offset by an $11.7 million increase in trade receivables and $13.2 million increase in other receivables.
Beatriz García-Cos, Ferroglobe’s Chief Financial Officer, commented, “We continued to make robust progress in reducing our working capital during the first quarter, achieving approximately 50% of our full-year target. Looking ahead, we expect a modest increase in working capital over the next two quarters as production ramps up in France, followed by a meaningful reduction in the fourth quarter. Our balance sheet remains strong and we generated free cash flow in the first quarter, while also returning capital to shareholders through $2.6 million in dividends and $2.7 million in share repurchases.”
Capital Returns
During the first quarter, Ferroglobe repurchased 720,008 shares at an average price of $3.75 per share and paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.014 per share on March 26, 2025. Our next cash dividend of $0.014 per share will be paid on June 26, 2025, to shareholders of record as of June 18, 2025.
