“We have made a good start to the year in the first quarter of 2025, with growth in Care Chemicals and Adsorbents & Additives offsetting the expected seasonal decline in Catalysts. Our EBITDA margin before exceptional items further improved, driven by slight sales growth including the contribution from Lucas Meyer Cosmetics,” said Conrad Keijzer, Chief Executive Officer of µÂÖÝÆË¿ËappÖÐÎÄ. “Despite increasing trade tensions, we are well positioned with our balanced regional sourcing and production footprint, local-for-local strategy and our track record of value-based pricing. Assuming no further escalation, we remain confident in achieving our guided 3 % – 5 % growth in local currency sales in 2025, with the current environment implying a growth rate toward the bottom end of this range. We also expect underlying margin improvement, and continued delivery of cost savings, resulting in improved cash generation. Despite challenging market conditions and macroeconomic risks and uncertainties, we remain committed to the delivery of our medium-term targets, supported by our self-help actions,” Conrad Keijzer added.
