Through 2025 channel inventory returned to pre-pandemic levels in most countries
following crop protection demand recovery. Pricing pressures remain high driven by
production over-capacity of active ingredients (AI). Crop commodity prices remain
stably low while farmer profitability remains tight leading to just-in-time purchasing
patterns.ADAMA continued to implement its Fight Forward transformation plan launched at
the beginning of 2024 promoting its goal to improve profit and cash performance.The plan sharpened ADAMA’s focus on priority countries and products optimized its
global assets and enhanced cost competitiveness and established a more agile and
streamlined operating model.Revenues for the full year were RMB 28.9 billion a decline of approximately 2%
compared to the full year of 2024 following implementation of the Company’s
strategic decisions to optimize its portfolio and geographical presence and reduce
selling some basic chemical products as well as under the impacts of extreme weather
conditions in some key countries. Despite lower sales reported gross profits for the
full year increased by 13% and reported gross margin improved by 3 percentage
1points mainly reflecting the positive impacts of lower costs due to improved
operational efficiency and lower costs of inventory sold. Reported operating expenses
declined compared to 2024 under the positive impacts of the Fight Forward plan.Reported net loss for the full year was reduced by 64% compared to 2024. In addition
both operating and free cash flow improved significantly attributed to better
collection and continued investment optimization.For detailed analysis about the Company’s performance in 2025 please refer to the
