Now out: BASF Group financial figures for 2025. BASF achieved important milestones in implementing its “Winning Ways” strategy.
In the 2025 business year, the BASF Group faced an uncertain and very volatile global market environment with considerable headwinds. We therefore mainly focused on the things we can control within the framework of our ‘Winning Ways’ strategy. We successfully started up the major plants at our new Verbund site in Zhanjiang. We also accelerated our cost savings programs and significantly streamlined BASF’s organization. However, the year 2025 and particularly the fourth quarter did not develop as anticipated for BASF Group.
EBITDA before special items amounted to €6.6 billion in 2025 (2024: €7.2 billion). Free cash flow increased considerably in 2025 to €1.3 billion (2024: €0.7 billion). The proposed dividend for the 2025 business year is €2.25 per share (dividend for the 2024 business year: €2.25 per share).
Our CEO Markus Kamieth shares his views on the 2025 business year and our playbook for 2026 in this video.
