Huhtamaki Q3 2025 Results Spotlight Expansion, Efficiency, and Strategic Growth Initiatives

Huhtamaki Oyj’s third quarter 2025 results reveal a company advancing its strategic priorities despite challenging currency headwinds and cautious market demand. Key highlights include the strategic acquisition of Zellwin Farms in Florida, enhancing North American molded fiber capacity, and the separation of the Fiber Foodservice business into Fiber Packaging and Foodservice Packaging for sharper focus and faster execution. The ramp-up of key investments continues with capital discipline, reflected in Q3 capital expenditure of EUR 109.7 million targeting capacity and technology upgrades. Despite a 5% decline in net sales to EUR 970.6 million driven largely by currency impacts, Huhtamaki’s adjusted EBIT remained resilient at EUR 100.3 million, supported by operational efficiencies, increased sales prices, and mix improvements in segments like Flexible and Fiber Packaging. The company’s ongoing three-year cost savings program successfully generated approximately EUR 100 million in efficiency-related savings, offsetting inflationary pressures. Looking forward, Huhtamaki remains focused on sustainable profitable growth through segment empowerment, optimized capital allocation, and continued innovation in renewable and fiber-based packaging to meet evolving customer needs globally. This performance positions Huhtamaki well for future resilience and expansion in its core markets.
