  • This profit followed two years of losses and happened despite difficult market conditions including high energy costs, weak demand, and tariffs from the US administration.
  • The company’s steel division, Steel Europe, faced a €90 million impairment and a 5% sales decline as it undergoes restructuring and job cuts totaling 11,000 positions.
  • Quarterly operating profits plunged about 90% to €19 million, far below analyst expectations, with CFO Jens Schulte noting shutdowns of steel sites for modernisation recently.
  • Thyssenkrupp anticipates returning to profitability for the full year with earnings expected to fall within a range of 100 to 500 million euros, while cautioning that the remainder of 2025 will remain affected by global economic challenges and ongoing pressures.
