Massimo Battaini, Prysmian CEO, said: “This outstanding year is another milestone, and represents the start of a new chapter of growth and profitability. The excellent fourth quarter, and the first year of our ‘Accelerating Growth’ strategic plan, underlines that we are proceeding on the path to meet our mid-term targets. From our acquisition of Channell, to the successful integration of Encore Wire, Prysmian has once again demonstrated its track record of successfully incorporating value-generating M&A, accelerating the strategic evolution to world-class solutions provider. Building on this, the leadership position of our Transmission business will be further enhanced thanks to the agreements to acquire Xtera and ACSM. At the same time, our financial solidity is demonstrated by our strong free cash flow, which is well ahead of guidance. Our achievements in 2025 were also underpinned by our ambition to introduce new sustainability-driven solutions to accelerate organic growth, reduce carbon emissions and increase the circularity of our business. The continued value creation over the past year is made even more special because 50% of our employees are now shareholders. Their passion, their innovations, their team spirit and sense of belonging will propel us even further in the years ahead.”

 

Milan, February 26, 2026 – The Board of Directors of Prysmian S.p.A. has approved the Group’s consolidated results for 20255.

Group Revenues in the fourth quarter stood at €4,966 million, up from €4,664 million in Q4’24 with +4.3% organic growth. There was continued robust organic growth in Transmission (+8.4%), Power Grid (+12.8%) and Digital Solutions (+8.4%).

In FY25, Revenues reached €19,650 million (€17,026 million, FY24), with +5.4% organic growth.

Revenues reflect the inclusion of both Encore Wire, which was fully consolidated as of July 1, 2024, and Channell, fully consolidated as of June 1, 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA in Q4’25 reached €622 million, up 20.1% compared to €518 million in Q4’24. The overall margin at standard metal prices was 14.5%, up from 12.7% in Q4’24.

In the fourth quarter, Transmission’s Adjusted EBITDA rose significantly to €181 million (€119 million, Q4’24), as did the margin, reaching a best-in-class 20.9% (14.5%, Q4’24).

In Power Grid, the Adjusted EBITDA was €105 million (€117 million, Q4’24), and the margin was 12.1% (15.4%, Q4’24). The margin was temporarily impacted by a surge in metal premiums in the Overhead Transmission Line business.

Digital Solutions saw continued profitability expansion, with the Adjusted EBITDA almost doubling to €75 million (€40 million, Q4’24). The margin increased significantly to 18.3% (13.2%, Q4’24), thanks in part to the contribution from Channell.
