Due to Trump's custom policies, Schwandorfer Nabaltec AG projects a decrease in revenue.
Nabaltec AG, a German-American company with a strong focus on the e-mobility sector, has revised its revenue forecast for the 2025 fiscal year due to the impact of currency fluctuations and uncertainties related to US trade policies [1][2][3]. Originally, the company had anticipated a turnover increase of three to five percent compared to the previous year, but the current forecast indicates a potential decrease of up to two percent.
The weak demand in key sectors such as the refractory industry and e-mobility has further contributed to the lowered revenue outlook. Despite this, Nabaltec maintains a range of seven to nine percent for the operating result (EBIT) for the 2025 fiscal year, down from 10.8% in 2024 [1][2].
In the first half of 2025, Nabaltec achieved a profit of 8.9 million euros, a decrease from the previous year's 10.9 million euros. The company's Boehmit sales have been disappointing, but Nabaltec continues to focus on e-mobility, despite these challenges [1][2].
The company attributes the burden on its development to persistently weak demand for products in the refractory industry and e-mobility sectors. Despite the revenue decline, Nabaltec expects to maintain its profitability, with an EBIT margin projected at 7% to 9% for 2025.
In summary, the current currency environment and US trade policy uncertainties have negatively impacted Nabaltec AG’s revenue forecast for 2025, pushing expected revenues slightly down while the company aims to keep profitability relatively stable despite these challenges [1][2][3].

The weak demand in both the refractory industry and e-mobility sectors has negatively affected Nabaltec's revenue forecast, as these sectors are significant for the company's business operations. In the finance aspect, Nabaltec expects to maintain its profitability, with an operating result (EBIT) margin projected at 7% to 9% for the 2025 fiscal year, despite the potential revenue decrease due to industry factors.
