Dr. Marco Levi, Ferroglobe’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We delivered a strong increase in first quarter ferroalloy shipment volumes in both the EU and the U.S, driven primarily by recently enacted trade measures. While volumes improved, pricing did not keep pace with higher costs, particularly in logistics and raw materials, resulting in margin compression. We view these cost pressures as temporary and expect pricing conditions to improve in the second half of the year.
“We see significant opportunities to diversify both our footprint and product mix, directly supporting our long-term strategic growth strategy. In Venezuela, we own four furnaces with more than 100,000 tons of incremental capacity, with the flexibility to produce across all our core product segments. Beyond this, we are actively evaluating which critical materials are most economically viable to produce, leveraging our established Western footprint and past production experience. The newly signed U.S. and EU strategic partnership on critical materials signals a structural shift, strengthening our position as markets increasingly prioritize secure, domestic supply chains for strategic materials,” concluded Dr. Levi.
Consolidated Sales
In the first quarter of 2026, Ferroglobe reported sales of $347.7 million, a 5.6% increase from the prior quarter and a 13.2% increase from the comparable prior-year period. This improvement was mainly driven by higher sales volumes of silicon-based alloys and manganese-based alloys, as well as a higher average selling price for manganese-based alloys, partially offset by lower volumes and average selling price for silicon metals. Silicon-based alloys prices remained stable during the quarter. Sales of silicon metal decreased by $12.4 million from the prior quarter, while silicon-based alloys and manganese-based alloys increased by $18.7 million and $14.5 million, respectively, compared with the prior quarter.

Silicon metal revenue in the first quarter was $84.1 million, a decrease of 12.9% from the prior quarter. The average selling price decreased 6.9%, driven by lower pricing in the U.S. and Europe amid a more competitive market environment and cautious customer purchasing in key end-markets, particularly in Europe, partially offset by a slight increase in South Africa. Shipments decreased 6.4%, primarily reflecting lower volumes in EMEA, partially offset by higher volumes in the U.S. Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $(2.3) million in the first quarter, compared with $0.9 million in the prior quarter, reflecting lower realized pricing and shipments, partially offset by strong cost performance in Canada. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to (2.7%) in the first quarter from 0.9% in the prior quarter.

| Silicon-based Alloys Adj.EBITDA Margin | 5.6 | % | 15.0 | % | 2.7 | % | ||||||||||||
Silicon-based alloy revenue in the first quarter was $122.3 million, an increase of 18.1% from the prior quarter. The average selling price was stable, as higher realizations in Europe were largely offset by softer pricing in the U.S. and South Africa, where market conditions remained competitive. Shipments increased 18.3%, reflecting a broad-based improvement across regions, with the most significant increase in the U.S., supported by improved demand and customer restocking in steel and foundry applications. Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $6.8 million in the first quarter of 2026, down from $15.5 million in the prior quarter, primarily reflecting higher production costs, which more than offset the benefit from higher volumes. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 5.6% in the first quarter, compared with 15.0% in the prior quarter.

| Manganese-based Alloys Adj.EBITDA Margin | 9.3 | % | 9.4 | % | (7.5 | )% | ||||||||||||
Manganese-based alloy revenue in the first quarter was $107.2 million, an increase of 15.7% from the prior quarter. The average selling price increased 9.0%, driven by higher pricing in Europe, partially offset by a slight decrease in the U.S. Shipments increased 6.1%, reflecting solid volume growth in Europe as steel-related demand for domestic manganese alloys improved. Adjusted EBITDA increased to $10.0 million in the first quarter, compared with $8.7 million in the prior quarter, supported by higher volumes and prices, offset by higher manganese ore, energy, and transportation costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 9.3%, broadly in line with 9.4% in the prior quarter.
Raw materials and energy consumption for production
Raw materials and energy consumption for production decreased to 64.3% of sales in the first quarter of 2026, compared with 79.4% in the prior quarter. This improvement was primarily driven by the absence of the $40.2 million fair value loss related to long term energy contracts recognized in the fourth quarter of 2025, as well as the recognition of a positive fair value adjustment of $5.5 million in the first quarter of 2026. Improved production levels and better fixed cost absorption also contributed to the sequential improvement. Excluding the impact of power purchase agreements, raw materials and energy consumption represented 65.9% of revenue in the first quarter of 2026, compared with 67.2% in the prior quarter.
Net (Loss) Attributable to the Parent
In the first quarter of 2026, net loss attributable to the parent was $7.1 million, or $(0.04) per diluted share, compared to a net loss attributable to the parent of $81.0 million, or $(0.43) per diluted share, in the prior quarter. The quarter over quarter improvement was primarily driven by the absence of the $40.2 million negative fair value remeasurement impacts related to long-term energy contracts recorded in the fourth quarter, as well as the absence of an impairment charge of $17.7 million and additional depreciation of $12.6 million recognized in the prior quarter. Results in the first quarter of 2026 also benefited from improved operating leverage, partially offset by higher selling-related expenses associated with increased sales volumes. The Company reported adjusted diluted earnings per share of $(0.07) for the first quarter of 2026, compared with $(0.06) in the prior quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA declined to $3.3 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $14.6 million for the prior quarter. The prior quarter benefited from a one time positive impact of approximately $12 million related to the modification of a lease liability agreement. During the first quarter of 2026, operating performance improved, supported by stronger volumes and continued cost efficiency initiatives, partially offset by higher selling and distribution costs.

(1) Total cash is comprised of restricted cash and cash and cash equivalents
(2) Adjusted gross debt excludes bank borrowings on our factoring program and the impact of leasing standard IFRS16
(3) Total working capital is comprised of inventories, trade receivables and other receivables minus trade and other payables
Total cash was $96.4 million as of March 31, 2026, a decrease of $26.6 million from $123.0 million as of December 31, 2025. Adjusted gross debt decreased by $1.8 million to $151.0 million, resulting in net debt of $54.6 million as of March 31, 2026. This represents an increase of $24.8 million from the prior quarter.
During the first quarter, cash flows used in operating activities were $5.6 million, and net cash used in investing activities was $17.1 million. Cash used in financing activities was $3.3 million as a result of lease payments of $3.9 million, dividend payments of $2.8 million, interest payments of $2.4 million, and the principal repayments of other financing liabilities of $0.7 million, partially offset proceeds from financing facilities in South Africa, France and Spain totaling $3.4 million, net cash proceeds from the sale of short-term commercial paper totaling $3.1 million.
Total working capital was $431.2 million as of March 31, 2026, an increase of $3.7 million from $427.5 million at the end of the prior quarter. The increase in our working capital balance during the quarter was primarily driven by increases of $28.1 million in inventories, $20.9 million in trade receivables, and $16.8 million in other receivables, partially offset by a $62.1 million increase in trade and other payables.
Beatriz García-Cos, Ferroglobe’s Chief Financial Officer, commented, “We delivered solid sales in the first quarter, with revenue increasing almost 6%, driven by higher volumes in our silicon-based alloy and manganese-based alloy segments. However, lower silicon metal prices and margin compression in silicon-based alloys impacted profitability, resulting in adjusted EBITDA of $3.3 million, compared with $14.6 million in the fourth quarter. The conflict in Iran created a challenging operating environment during the quarter, with higher transportation, logistics, and raw material costs, primarily manganese ore and coal, without a corresponding improvement in our realized prices. While these pressures affected adjusted EBITDA and resulted in negative free cash flow, we maintained disciplined capital expenditure management. Importantly, we ended the quarter with a solid liquidity position, including $96.4 million of total cash and a manageable net debt level of $54.6 million.”
Capital Returns
During the first quarter, Ferroglobe repurchased 5,140 shares at an average price of $3.90 per share and paid a quarterly cash dividend of $ 0.015 per share on March 30, 2026. Our next cash dividend of $0.015 per share will be paid on June 29, 2026, to shareholders of record as of June 22, 2026.
