The firm reported an exceptional loss of Rs 514 crore during the quarter as against exceptional profit of Rs 33 crore posted in Q2 FY24.

EBTIDA grew by 49% YoY to Rs 9,100 crore in the quarter ended 30 September 2024.

Novelis’ revenue stood at $4.3 billion in Q2 of FY25, up 5% YoY, driven by higher average aluminium prices.

Novelis reported an adjusted EBITDA of $462 million in September 2024 quarter, down 5% YoY, due to less favourable metal benefit, unfavourable product mix, and $25 million flood impact at Sierre. The firm’s adjusted EBITDA per ton, at $502, down 3.28% YoY.

Novelis’ total shipments of flat rolled products were at 945 KT in Q2 FY25, up 1% YoY, led by record beverage packaging shipments.

Consequently, our Aluminium India Upstream business reported an EBITDA per tonne of $1,349— the highest in the last 10 quarters and the best-in-industry globally. The Copper business achieved another record quarterly EBITDA.

Novelis’ global footprint allowed the company to achieve record beverage packaging shipments, partially offsetting the impact from the flooding-related outage at Sierre. During the quarter, we made significant progress across our growth projects in India Business and Novelis. Our company’s robust cash flow generation enabled us to maintain a consolidated net debt-to-EBITDA ratio below 1.2x.

Notably, Hindalco has been recognized as the World's Most Sustainable Aluminium Company for the fifth consecutive year in the S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment rankings 2024, achieving a score of 87 out of 100—up 9 points from last year’s score, and our highest score till date.

Novelis stated that the current period’s net income includes $61 million in charges associated with the production interruptions at Sierre, as well as higher restructuring and impairment expense and lower operating performance, partially offset by a favorable change in metal price lag and unrealized derivatives year-over-year.

Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 increased 5% versus the prior year period to $4.3 billion, mainly driven by higher average aluminum prices and a 1% increase in total flat rolled product shipments to 945 kilotonnes.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased 5% versus the prior year to $462 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, primarily driven by less favorable metal benefit due to a relatively rapid increase in aluminum scrap prices, unfavorable product mix, and a $25 million impact at Sierre as a result of the flood. These factors were partially offset by higher beverage packaging shipments.

Adjusted EBITDA per tonne was down 6% year-over-year to $489.

Net cash flow provided by operating activities was $374 million in the first six months of fiscal year 2025 compared to $290 million in the prior fiscal year period, primarily due to favorable changes in working capital.

Novelis is a subsidiary of Hindalco Industries.
