GrafTech International Ltd. reported a larger net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 despite higher sales. Net sales rose to $125.1 million from $111.8 million as graphite electrode sales volume increased 14% to 28.1 thousand metric tons, but the weighted‑average realized price fell about 5% to roughly $3,900 per MT.
Higher costs and inventory valuation charges drove a gross loss of $15.0 million and an operating loss of $30.7 million. Net loss widened to $43.3 million, or $(1.66) per share. Cash used in operating activities improved to $14.9 million, aided by working capital, while capital expenditures were $12.1 million.
GrafTech ended the quarter with $328.7 million of liquidity, including $120.2 million of cash and $209 million of available credit facilities, against $1.1 billion of long‑term debt and a stockholders’ deficit of $304.4 million. Management expects 2026 graphite electrode sales volume to rise 5–10%, modest cost improvements per ton, and capital expenditures of about $35 million while pursuing price increases and cost actions to restore profitability.
GrafTech International reported first quarter 2026 net sales of $125.1 million, up 12% year-over-year, driven by a 14% increase in graphite electrode sales volume to 28.1 thousand MT. Higher volume was offset by a roughly 5% decline in average realized pricing to about $3,900 per MT, reflecting ongoing industry overcapacity and weak pricing.
The company recorded a net loss of $43.3 million, or $1.66 per share, and adjusted EBITDA of negative $13.6 million. Operating cash flow was negative $14.9 million and adjusted free cash flow was negative $27.1 million. As of March 31, 2026, GrafTech reported total liquidity of $328.7 million, including $120.2 million of cash, against $1,125 million of gross debt (about $1,005 million net debt).
Management expects 2026 graphite electrode sales volume to rise 5–10% year-over-year, with more than 85% of anticipated volume already committed. To counter weak pricing and cost pressures, GrafTech is implementing price increases of $600–$1,200 per MT on uncommitted volume, supporting trade cases in key regions, and targeting a low single-digit percentage decline in cash cost of goods sold per MT for 2026, while keeping capital expenditures around $35 million.
