HMS Bergbau AG Reports Tripled EBITDA, Net Profit More Than Quadrupled in Fiscal Year 2025

HMS Bergbau AG (ISIN: DE0006061104, WKN: 606110), a leading independent commodities trading and marketing company based in Berlin, published its audited financial figures for fiscal year 2025 on Tuesday, revealing significant earnings growth. The company’s EBITDA tripled to EUR 60.1 million from EUR 20.1 million in the previous year, while net profit surged more than fourfold to EUR 54.8 million, compared to EUR 13.2 million in 2024. The final figures largely confirm the preliminary results released on 14 April 2026.

The strong earnings performance was partly driven by positive one-time valuation effects of approximately EUR 37 million resulting from the transition to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), particularly from the initial consolidation of Maatla Resources (Pty.) Ltd., a coal mine in operation in Botswana. Group sales, however, decreased from EUR 1.36 billion to EUR 1.22 billion due to lower commodity prices.

For the current fiscal year 2026, HMS expects group sales of EUR 2 billion and an EBITDA of EUR 55 million. This includes a one-time valuation effect of about EUR 20 million from the initial consolidation of the mining company Hoshoza Resources Vryheid in South Africa. Adjusted for this special effect, EBITDA is expected to increase from EUR 23.1 million in 2025 to EUR 35 million in 2026, indicating underlying operational growth.

The company made key strategic decisions in 2025 to enable further growth, expanding its business activities into liquid fuels, raw material production, and traditional trading. These moves position HMS as a fully integrated, internationally oriented commodity house along the entire value chain, beyond its core coal trading business. The company’s strategy includes majority and minority holdings in mining companies, such as the newly consolidated Hoshoza Resources Vryheid.

HMS Bergbau AG will host a video webcast for investors and media on 6 July 2026 at 3:00 p.m. (CET), where CEO Dennis Schwindt and CFO Jens Moir will present the 2025 financial ratios and the 2026 outlook, followed by a Q&A session. Registration is available at this link.

The company also announced that it has suspended its current bond issuance due to market conditions in the mid-cap bond market but remains in close contact with investors. 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.

The results underscore HMS’s transformation into a diversified commodity company, with strategic investments in mining and liquid fuels expected to drive significant revenue and operating profit growth in 2026. The transition to IFRS has provided a more transparent view of the company’s financial position, albeit with one-time valuation effects that boost reported earnings.
