Hydro (NHYDY) — Investor Day 2025, 27 November 2025: Hydro reaffirmed its 2030 strategy while announcing near‑term tightening of capital and targeted restructuring to protect long‑term value. Key actions include a proposed closure of five Extrusions plants (restructuring cost NOK 1.9 billion; annual savings NOK 0.5 billion), workforce reductions (~750 white‑collar roles) and acceleration of a NOK 6.5 billion improvement program with NOK 1.2 billion expected in 2025. Capital allocation for 2025–26 is cut to NOK 13.5 billion, while medium‑term CAPEX guidance of NOK 15 billion is maintained. Illvatn pumped storage (NOK 2.5 billion) adds 48 MW and 107 GWh of renewable power. Adjusted EBITDA Q4 2024–Q3 2025 reached NOK 31 billion.
Hydro (OTC:NHYDY) proposes to close five European extrusion plants — Cheltenham and Bedwas (UK), Lüdenscheid (Germany), Feltre (Italy) and Drunen (Netherlands) — with a formal consultation starting immediately and potential closures during 2026.
The proposal affects 730 employees, involves eight extrusion presses and three recycling units, and aims to strengthen long‑term competitiveness by optimizing the European extrusion footprint.
Financial impacts for Q4 2025 include an estimated NOK 1.9 billion total restructuring cost (including NOK 460 million impairment and NOK 1.25 billion provisions), an NOK 50–100 million hit to Adjusted EBITDA, and expected run‑rate improvements in excess of NOK 0.5 billion per year.
Norsk Hydro (NHYDY) on 18 November 2025 signed two sustainability-linked revolving multi-currency credit facilities of USD 1,600 million and USD 800 million for general corporate purposes. The facilities replace Hydro’s undrawn USD 1,600 million and USD 1,000 million facilities and the entire amounts are available as sub-facility swinglines for immediate liquidity.
The facilities carry a margin that will be adjusted based on Hydro’s annual CO2 emission reduction targets per tonne of hot metal from electrolysis, linking borrowing costs to sustainability performance. DNB Carnegie, ING and SEB coordinated the transaction with a broader bank group participating; DNB is facility agent and ING and SEB are joint sustainability coordinators.
Hydro (OTC:NHYDY) has taken a final investment decision to build the Illvatn pumped storage power plant in Luster Municipality, with construction starting November 2025 and operations expected in 2030.
The project delivers 107 GWh of new annual renewable production dedicated to Hydro’s aluminium operations. Gross investment is NOK 2.5 billion, with a net after-tax investment of NOK 1.2 billion under Norway’s cash flow tax scheme. The scope includes a new tunnel, increased Illvatn reservoir capacity, and a 13 km power line using 48 aluminium towers to reduce water loss and boost winter production.
Norsk Hydro (OTC:NHYDY) reported Q3 2025 adjusted EBITDA of NOK 5,996m, down from NOK 7,367m year‑ago, driven by lower realized alumina prices and a stronger NOK.
Key metrics: free cash flow NOK 2.2bn, 12‑month adjusted RoaCE 11%, and net debt down NOK 1.9bn to NOK 13.6bn. The company launched a workforce and cost reduction program (≈750 white‑collar positions) with gross redundancy costs ~NOK 400m and expected NOK 1bn annual savings from 2026.
Strategic items include an Agreement in Principle to secure power for Alouette through 2045, divestment of Corvus Energy for USD 30m, and a Rotterdam court dismissal of all 2021 claims against Hydro.
