Nexans posted a record H1 2025 adjusted EBITDA of €441 million, up 7.0% from a year earlier, and lifted its adjusted EBITDA margin 10 basis points to 11.7%, highlighting strong operational performance and disciplined execution.
Electrification businesses achieved 7.8% organic growth in H1 2025, driven by PWR-Transmission’s 21.7% gain and a €7.8 billion project backlog, positioning Nexans to benefit from growing energy transition demand.
On the back of robust first-half results, Nexans raised its full-year 2025 guidance to adjusted EBITDA of €810-860 million and free cash flow of €275-375 million, reflecting management’s confidence in growth prospects and cash generation.
The non-electrification Industry & Solutions segment posted a 5.2% organic sales drop in H1 2025, showing persistent cyclical weakness in its industrial and automation markets.
Nexans carried out major M&A in H1 2025—buying Cables RCT and selling Lynxeo for a combined €1.4 billion in sales—which adds integration and execution risks that could stretch management focus and challenge synergy targets.
Management cited a construction sector slowdown in late 2024 and ongoing inventory destocking as headwinds likely to continue into 2025, weighing on demand in its core building and territories division.
