Difficult market conditions impact Q3 results
Highlights
Revenue in first nine months of 2025 reached 2,910 MEUR, an increase
of one percent measured in both local currencies and reported figures
compared to last year. The 2024 acquisitions had a two-percentage point
positive impact.
Revenue in Q3 2025 reached 963 MEUR, an increase of two percent
measured in local currencies and one percent in reported figures
compared to last year. The 2024 acquisitions had a two-percentage point
positive impact.
EBITDA in the first nine months of 2025 reached 665 MEUR, with a 22.9
percent EBITDA margin, down 1.7 percentage points compared to last
year.
EBITDA in Q3 2025 reached 215 MEUR, with a 22.3 percent EBITDA
margin, down 2.9 percentage points compared to Q3 2024. Earnings
decreased due to unfavourable country mix partly from lower sales in the
United Kingdom and Canada and continued slow-down in Russia,
reduced efficiency in several factories as well as a decline in operating
cost leverage.
EBIT decreased 11 percent to 457 MEUR in the first nine months of
2025. EBIT margin reached 15.7 percent, down 2.1 percentage points
compared to last year. The 2024 acquisitions had limited impact.
EBIT decreased 14 percent to 150 MEUR in Q3 2025. EBIT margin
reached 15.5 percent, down 2.6 percentage points compared to Q3 2024.
The 2024 acquisitions had limited impact.
Investments totalled 307 MEUR in the first nine months of 2025, of which
the largest projects related to the new factories in North America and
India, the production expansion in Romania, and electrification of existing
production lines.
Cash flow from operations before financial items and tax amounted to
579 MEUR in the first nine months of 2025 compared to 684 MEUR last
year.
Shareholders may from 26 November 2025 until 10 December 2025
request conversion of A shares to B shares. For further information
please refer to https://www.rockwool.com/group/
about-us/investors/conversion-shares/.
During the first nine months of 2025, the Group purchased 3,259,800 B
shares related to the share buy-back programme for a total amount of
119 MEUR.
Outlook 2025
Revenue is expected to be at level with last year in local currencies.
EBIT margin is expected to be between 14-15 percent.
Investments around 450 MEUR excluding acquisitions.
As indicated in our previously
announced outlook adjustment, the
volatility and hesitation we saw across
many markets impacted our Q3 results.
Trade policy uncertainty and
geopolitical tensions persisted in the
third quarter, though not all markets
were affected equally. Key markets
such as the United Kingdom and
Canada experienced headwinds, with
many large projects being postponed,
while we saw pockets of good growth
elsewhere, such as Eastern and
Southern Europe. Sales in the United
States are back on a good growth path.
Overall profitability was negatively
affected by lower profitability in the
Russian and UK businesses as well as
lower operational efficiencies in several
locations. We continue to invest in
capacity expansion, decarbonisation,
and digitalisation.

Management report for the period
1 January to 30 September 2025
General update
Volatility and hesitation in global markets persist as the challenging conditions
related to trade policy uncertainty and geopolitical tensions continue. Key
markets like the United Kingdom and Canada are impacted by these conditions,
and we have seen many large projects postponed, especially within flat roof.
On the other hand, we continue to see positive market development for our
stone wool offering, especially in Southern Europe.
Especially the UK Insulation business faced several unexpected challenges in
Q3 2025, as large flat roof projects were cancelled or postponed, temporarily
impacting sales in the second half of 2025. In addition, a longer than expected
production stop reduced available capacity. Due to this, UK revenue and
earnings were negatively impacted in Q3. In the beginning of Q4 2025, UK
sales were back to normal level.
Global revenue development
In the first nine months of 2025, revenue was 2,910 MEUR, an increase of one
percent in both local currencies and reported figures. The 2024 acquisitions
accounted for a two-percentage point growth in the first nine months of 2025.
Pricing followed individual market strategies and had overall a one percent
impact in the first nine months compared to same period last year. Many
businesses faced headwinds with pockets of good growth in markets like
Eastern and Southern Europe. Revenue in Russia decreased in the double-
digit range and accounted for around seven percent of the total Group revenue
in reported figures. Excluding Russia, the Group revenue grew three percent in
local currencies.
In Q3 2025, ROCKWOOL generated revenue of 963 MEUR, an increase of two
percent in local currencies and one percent in reported figures compared to Q3
2024. Excluding the 2024 acquisitions, revenue was flat in local currencies as
volumes and sales prices remained stable overall. Sales in the UK, Canada,
Germany and Nordics were challenged, while larger markets such as Poland,
Spain, Italy, the United States, and other main markets in Eastern Europe
performed well in the quarter. Revenue in Russia decreased in the double-digit
range and accounted for around eight percent of the total Group revenue in
reported figures. Excluding Russia, the Group revenue grew four percent in
local currencies.
Regional revenue development
In the first nine months of 2025, revenue in Western Europe amounted to 1,654
MEUR, up two percent measured in both local currencies and in reported
figures, mainly driven by the 2024 acquisition in the United Kingdom. Organic
revenue decline was 0.4 percent in the region.

In Q3 2025, sales in Western Europe amounted to 546 MEUR, up two percent
in both local currencies and reported figures compared to same period last
year. Organic revenue decline was 0.3 percent. Revenue grew well in Spain,
Italy, and the Netherlands, while revenue in the United Kingdom, Germany and
Nordics declined.
In Eastern Europe, revenue for the first nine months of 2025 amounted to 558
MEUR, a decrease of four percent in local currencies and two percent in
reported figures compared to the first nine months of 2024. Sales in Q3 2025
amounted to 206 MEUR, up three percent in local currencies and four percent
in reported figures. Most larger countries in the region experienced double-digit
sales growth in the quarter. Revenue in Russia saw a double-digit decrease.
In the first nine months of 2025, revenue in North America reached 555 MEUR,
an increase of four percent in local currencies and flat compared to last year in
reported figures. In Q3 2025, sales in North America amounted to 162 MEUR,
down one percent in local currencies and eight percent in reported figures
impacted by the lower U.S. and Canadian dollar exchange rate as well as
difficult market conditions in Canada. Sales in the United States are back to
good growth.
In the first nine months of 2025, revenue in Asia and rest of the world amounted
to 143 MEUR, an increase of one percent in both local currencies and reported
figures compared to last year. Excluding the acquisition in Vietnam, revenue in
reported figures decreased three percent.
In Q3 2025, sales in Asia and rest of the world amounted to 49 MEUR, up six
percent in local currencies and three percent in reported figures. Excluding
acquisitions, revenue increased one percent in local currencies. Malaysia and
Japan performed well, while revenue in many other countries decreased,
especially in Indonesia due to import restrictions.

Group profitability
In the first nine months of 2025, EBITDA reached 665 MEUR, a decrease of six
percent. The EBITDA margin was 22.9 percent for the first nine months of
2025, compared to 24.6 percent for the same period last year 2024.
In Q3 2025, EBITDA decreased 11 percent to 215 MEUR, resulting in an
EBITDA margin of 22.3 percent, compared to 25.2 percent for the same period
last year. While sales prices and input costs remained stable overall, the
decrease in margin was driven by lower profitability in the Russian entities, with
an impact of around one percentage point, and in the UK business. Lower
operational efficiencies also impacted margins negatively.
EBIT decreased 11 percent, reaching 457 MEUR in the first nine months of
2025, corresponding to an EBIT margin of 15.7 percent compared to 17.8
percent for the same period last year. The 2024 acquisitions had limited impact
on the EBIT margin. EBIT margin for the first nine months of 2025 excluding the
Russian business was 14.5 percent, down 1.1 percentage points compared to
same period last year.
The result for the first nine months of 2025 includes a donation to the
Foundation for Ukrainian Reconstruction of 13.4 MEUR (100 MDKK), which
was approved at the AGM on 2 April 2025. The same amount was included in
the result for the first nine months of 2024.
In Q3 2025, EBIT amounted to 150 MEUR, with an EBIT margin of 15.5
percent, down 2.6 percentage points.
EBIT & EBIT margin
MEUR
Net financial items ended at positive 16 MEUR for the first nine months of 2025,
compared to 8 MEUR for the same period last year, primarily due to higher
interest income and tax settlements. This amount was partly offset by
unrealised exchange rate losses of 8 MEUR during the first nine months of
2025, compared to unrealised exchange rate losses of 2 MEUR in the same
period last year.

The effective tax rate was 24 percent for the first nine months of 2025
compared to 21 percent the same period last year 2024, and up three
percentage points from full year 2024. The changes in the effective tax rate
mainly relate to recognition of tax assets last year.
Net profit for the first nine months of 2025 amounted to 360 MEUR, which is 53
MEUR lower than last year.
Financial position
Net working capital at the end of Q3 2025 was 440 MEUR, an increase of 76
MEUR compared to year-end 2024 and an increase of 64 MEUR compared to
the first nine months of 2024. The unfavourable development compared to last
year was mainly driven by higher inventories linked to the activity slowdown in
key markets. Net working capital ratio ended at 11.3 percent, 1.4 percentage
points higher than end of Q3 2024.
Driven by lower four quarters rolling EBIT and higher invested capital,
annualised return on invested capital ended at 22.1 percent, compared to 24.7
percent in the same period last year.
At the end of Q3 2025, total assets amounted to 4,048 MEUR, an increase of
160 MEUR compared to year-end 2024, and 308 MEUR higher than the end of
Q3 2024. The development is mainly related to the 2024 acquisitions,
investments in property, plant and equipment, and higher inventories and tax
receivables.
At the end of the period, the equity ratio remained solid at 76 percent, down
three percentage points compared to the first nine months of 2024. Net book
value of the investment in the Russian business as per end of Q3 2025 was
425 MEUR, of which 230 MEUR was restricted cash.
Cash Flow
Cash flow from operations before financial items and tax amounted to 579
MEUR for the first nine months of 2025, a decrease of 105 MEUR compared to
the same period last year due to lower earnings and less favourable
development in net working capital.
In the first nine months of 2025, investments amounted to 307 MEUR, an
increase of 59 MEUR compared to 248 MEUR in the same period last year.
The additional capacity in Romania, electrification of two lines in Roermond, the
Netherlands, and one line in France as well as the new factory project in the
United States were the largest individual investment projects in the quarter.
Free cash flow ended at 142 MEUR in the first nine months of 2025, down 216
MEUR compared to the same period last year due to lower earnings, less
favourable development in net working capital, higher investments, and timing
of tax settlements.

In the first nine months of 2025, cash flow from financing was -176 MEUR,
compared to -260 MEUR last year, as increased dividend payouts due to the
higher dividend ratio for 2024 were offset by drawings on credit facilities ahead
of the dividend payments.
ROCKWOOL had a net interest-bearing cash position of 100 MEUR and
unused credit facilities of 450 MEUR at the end of Q3 2025.

Insulation segment sales for the first nine months of 2025 reached 2,330
MEUR, which is an increase of two percent in both local currencies and in
reported figures. In Q3 2025, Insulation segment sales reached 774 MEUR,
which is an increase of three percent in local currencies and one percent in
reported figures compared to same quarter last year. The 2024 acquisitions
accounted for two percentage points growth. Revenue in key markets in
Eastern and Southern Europe showed solid growth, while the United Kingdom
and Russia saw significant revenue decreases.
Insulation segment EBIT for the first nine months of 2025 reached 393 MEUR,
with an EBIT margin of 15.5 percent, a decrease of 1.6 percentage points
compared to the same period last year. In Q3 2025, EBIT was 130 MEUR,
resulting in an EBIT margin of 15.9 percent, down 2.2 percentage points from
same period last year. In part, this result reflects the negative country mix,
lower efficiency in several factories as well as a lower operating cost leverage.

Share buy-back programme
As stated in the 2024 Annual Report, ROCKWOOL Group has initiated a new
share buy-back programme of up to 150 MEUR. The share buy-back
programme will run from 7 February 2025 until 6 February 2026. During this
period, ROCKWOOL A/S will buy own shares for up to a maximum of 150
MEUR. During the first nine months of 2025, the company purchased 2,927,500
B shares related to the new programme. In addition, 332,300 B shares were
purchased under the previous programme ending 7 February 2025. The total
purchase price was 889 MDKK (119 MEUR).
Events after the reporting period
In October 2025, we experienced a production-related incident in the factory in
Flums, Switzerland, in which molten rock flowed onto the factory floor. As a
result, the factory has temporarily stopped production while work continues to
repair the damage and assess the root cause. While production is stopped,
products to the Swiss market are sourced from other ROCKWOOL factories.
The repair and import costs will have a negative impact on Q4 2025 earnings.
Negotiations with the insurance companies are ongoing.
Outlook for the full year 2025
Although conditions in some markets continue to be difficult, we still expect the
revenue to be at level with last year in local currencies.
EBIT margin is expected to be between 14-15 percent. With reference to the 11
November 2025 announcement, several factors contributed to the lower full-
year margin outlook. The production-related incident in the factory in Flums,
Switzerland and measures to ensure continued deliveries to customers from
our German factories are expected to reduce Q4 2025 earnings by around 15
MEUR, of which 4 MEUR relates to write-down of damaged equipment.
The temporary slow-down in the UK market and a longer than planned
maintenance stop at the factory there is estimated to have impacted EBIT by
around 5 MEUR in Q3 2025. In the beginning of Q4 2025, UK sales are back to
normal level. The slow-down in the Canadian market, already visible from end
of Q3, is expected to continue throughout Q4 and to reduce earnings by around
15-20 MEUR compared to previous forecasts. The continued decline in the
Russian market is expected to lower earnings by 5-10 MEUR more than in
previous forecasts.
The large investment projects are on track; the investment level around 450
MEUR excluding acquisitions for the year is maintained.

This unaudited interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and additional Danish regulations for the
presentation of quarterly interim reports by listed companies. The interim report has been prepared in accordance with the
accounting policies set out in the Annual Report for 2024, with no significant changes.
Significant accounting estimates and assumptions
In preparing this interim report, Management has made various accounting estimates and judgements that may significantly
influence the amounts recognised in the Consolidated Financial Statements and related information at the reporting date.
The accounting estimates and judgements which Management considers to be material for the preparation and
understanding of the interim report are stated in Note 1.1 in the Annual Report 2024 and primarily relate to impairment
testing, expected lifetime for tangible assets, deferred tax assets, and uncertain tax positions.
Disclaimer
The statements on the future in this report, including expected revenue and earnings, are associated with risks and
uncertainties and may be affected by factors influencing the activities of the Group, such as the global economic
environment, including interest and exchange rate developments, the raw material situation, production and distribution-
related issues, breach of contract or unexpected termination of contract, price reductions due to market-driven price
developments, market acceptance of new products, launches of competitive products, and other unforeseen factors.
