HMS Bergbau AG (ISIN: DE0006061104, WKN: 606110), a leading independent commodities trading and marketing company, published its audited financial results for fiscal year 2025 on June 30, 2026. The final figures largely confirm the preliminary results announced on April 14, 2026, and are the first prepared under IFRS accounting standards. EBITDA reached EUR 60.1 million, up from EUR 20.1 million in the prior year, while net profit soared to EUR 54.8 million from EUR 13.2 million. The increase was partly due to positive one-time valuation effects of approximately EUR 37 million from the transition to IFRS, particularly from the initial consolidation of Maatla Resources (Pty.) Ltd., a coal mine in Botswana.
Group sales declined from EUR 1.36 billion to EUR 1.22 billion due to lower commodity prices. For fiscal year 2026, HMS expects sales of EUR 2 billion and an EBITDA of EUR 55 million, including a one-time valuation effect of about EUR 20 million from the initial consolidation of Hoshoza Resources Vryheid in South Africa. Adjusted for this, the EBITDA is forecast to rise from EUR 23.1 million in 2025 to EUR 35 million in 2026.
HMS Bergbau made significant strategic decisions in 2025 to expand into liquid fuels, raw material production, and traditional trading, positioning itself as a fully integrated commodity house along the entire value chain. The full annual report for 2025 is available for download on the company's website at www.hms-ag.com in the Investor Relations section.

Registration is available via this link.
