“In the third quarter of 2025, our diversified portfolio and steady operational performance have enabled us to maintain resilient cash flow.
We remain committed to our Positive Motion strategy, with an emphasis on sustainable growth. Our decision to allocate more than 50% of our capex to the energy transition conveys our targeted approach to capital allocation and our determination to prioritize initiatives that advance our leadership in the European energy transition.
As we look ahead, we remain confident in our ability to adapt, execute, and create long-term value for all stakeholders.”
Q3 2025 Performance Highlights
Moeve delivered Clean CCS EBITDA of €459m in the third quarter of 2025 (vs €383m in Q3’24), with higher refining margins and high utilization rates in its Energy segment offsetting continued headwinds in the Chemicals segment.
Cash flow from operations in the period stood at €479m, a 52% increase from the corresponding period last year (€204m in Q3’24), resulting in solid cash conversion rates. Capital expenditure reached €255m (€210m in Q3’24), with Energy Transition Capex making up 54% of the total (46% in Q3’24), mainly driven by the continued construction of the Group’s 2G biofuels plant and a new isopropyl alcohol (IPA) plant, both in Huelva (Spain), as well as the ongoing deployment of its network of ultra-fast electric chargers.
Moeve ended Q3’25 with net debt of €2,328m, €191m lower than the same period of 2024, and a net debt to LTM EBITDA of 1.7x. Group liquidity at the end of the quarter was €5,519m, underscoring Moeve’s continued conservative financial policy.
By division:
Energy (Energy Parks, Commercial & Clean Energies, Mobility and Trading): The Energy division posted Clean CCS EBITDA of €411m in Q3’25, 49% higher than the same period last year (€269m in Q3’24), reflecting an increase in refining margins ($8.9/bbl in Q3’25 vs. $4.7/bbl in Q3’24) and a high utilization rate of 94% in Q3’25 vs 93% in Q3’24. Refining margins were robust through Q3’25, sustained by steady global demand for transport fuels as economic activity in key markets remained strong. Commercial product sales for the period increased to 4.7 Mt for Q3’25, compared to 4.4 Mt in the same period last year.
Chemicals: The Chemicals division delivered Clean CCS EBITDA of €31m in Q3’25, (€68m in Q3’24), reflecting low margins within the Phenol segment while LAB markets remained relatively stable. Sales volumes totalled 582 ktons during Q3’25.
Upstream: The Upstream business reported Clean CCS EBITDA of €61m in Q3’25 (€85m in Q3’24), due to decreased realised oil prices (70$/bbl in Q3’25 vs 79.7$/bbl in Q3’24).
Major events
Since the start of the third quarter, Moeve has made steady progress on its Positive Motion strategy.
In sustainable aviation, in October Moeve became the first external sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) supplier to join Avelia, the leading blockchain-powered book and claim platform with the aim of scaling SAF and began supplying 100% renewable diesel (HVO) at its Service Station on the airside of El Prat Airport, making it the first company in Spain to feature HVO at an airport service station. In September Moeve joined forces with member companies of the Global Impact Coalition (GIC) to support the development of a new methanol-based pathway to electro-Sustainable Aviation Fuel (e-SAF) and low-carbon chemicals in Europe. This initiative marks a strategic step toward a differentiated route to sustainable fuels through cross-industry collaboration. In July, Moeve signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Zaffra to assess the feasibility of developing one of Southern Europe's largest e-SAF plants in Huelva, to meet the ReFuelEU Aviation targets by 2030.
In biomethane, Moeve reached an agreement with ID Energy Group to accelerate biomethane development for both for green hydrogen production and as a substitute for natural gas in industrial operations. The partnership aims to deliver up to 1 TWh of renewable gas annually by repurposing 3.1 million tons of agricultural and livestock waste, advancing the circular economy.
In service stations, Moeve’s low-cost network Ballenoil reached 350 service stations in operation after opening 65 new establishments since the start of the year. Ballenoil is targeting 500 establishments by 2027 and is deploying an electric recharging network with primarily ultra-fast chargers, enabling the electrification of nearly a third of its service station network in Spain.
On a global level, Moeve joined the Global Renewables Alliance, underscoring its commitment to international collaboration for the scaling of renewable energy technologies to accelerate the energy transition.
