Caesarstone Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

  • Revenue of $101.1 Million -

  • Gross Margin of 19.6% -

MP MENASHE, Israel – August 6, 2025 - Caesarstone Ltd. (NASDAQ: CSTE), a leading developer and manufacturer of high-quality engineered surfaces, today reported financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Yos Shiran, Caesarstone’s Chief Executive Officer commented, “We are taking decisive action to align our cost structure to improve profitability at current revenue levels. During the quarter, we approved cost reduction measures expected to generate an additional $10 million of annualized savings, commencing in the second half of 2025. We also continued to benefit from an improved production footprint. In addition, we remain focused on investing in our strategic transformation initiatives. These measures are helping us to navigate the challenging global market landscape and position us well to scale efficiently as we move forward.”

Second Quarter 2025 Results

Revenue in the second quarter of 2025 was $101.1 million compared to $119.4 million in the prior year quarter. On a constant currency basis, second quarter revenue was down 15.6% year-over-year mainly due to lower volumes. Volumes were impacted by global economic headwinds across the Company's main regions resulting in lower demand accompanied by greater competitive pressures.

Gross margin in the second quarter of 2025 was 19.6% compared to 22.9% in the prior year quarter. Adjusted gross margin in the second quarter was 19.7%, compared to 23.8% in the prior year quarter. The difference in gross margin was mainly due to lower volumes and production, which resulted in lower fixed costs absorption, and unfavorable product mix, partially offset by the benefits of an improved production footprint.

Operating expenses in the second quarter of 2025 were $32.5 million, or 32.1% of revenue, compared to $36.6 million, or 30.6% of revenue in the prior year quarter. Excluding legal settlements and loss contingencies, and restructuring and impairment expenses, operating expenses were 30.1% of revenue compared to 28.2% in the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower revenues.

Operating loss in the second quarter of 2025 was $12.6 million compared to an operating loss of $9.3 million in the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting lower gross profit.

Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of 2025, which excludes expenses for non-cash share-based compensation, legal settlements and loss contingencies, restructuring charges and other non-recurring items, was a loss of $6.4 million compared to a loss of $0.1 million in the prior year quarter.

Finance (income) expense in the second quarter of 2025 was $5.7 million compared to finance income of $1.8 million in the prior year quarter. The difference primarily reflects foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

Net loss attributable to controlling interest for the second quarter of 2025 was $18.6 million compared to a net loss of $9.2 million in the prior year quarter. Net loss per share for the second quarter 2025 was $0.54 compared to a net loss per share of $0.27 in the prior year quarter. Adjusted diluted net loss per share for the second quarter was $0.33 on 34.7 million shares, compared to Adjusted diluted net loss per share of $0.14 in the prior year quarter on 35.0 million shares.


Balance Sheet & Liquidity

As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s balance sheet included cash, cash equivalents and short-term bank deposits of $75.6 million and total debt to financial institutions of $3.2 million. The Company's net cash position was $72.4 million as of June 30, 2025.

Legal Proceedings Update

As of June 30, 2025, the Company was subject to lawsuits involving 423 individuals alleging injuries related to exposure to respirable crystalline silica dust. These included 49 claims in Israel, 141 in Australia, and 233 in the United States. As of the same date, the Company recorded a provision of $44.9 million, representing its best estimate of probable and reasonably estimable losses associated with pending claims. The Company’s insurance receivables related to these provided for silicosis claims totaled $25.6 million.

During the quarter, a jury in California ruled in favor of the Company, assigning no liability to the Company in one trial, pending post-trial motions and potential appeals. To date in the United States, the Company has also received one adverse jury verdict in 2024, which remains under appeal, and has settled another claim during 2025. The remaining U.S. claims are either in early stages or are considered only reasonably possible losses, and therefore no additional provision has been recorded.

In July 2025, both the Company and certain U.S. insurance carriers initiated proceedings for declaratory relief to determine the proper interpretation and application of Company’s U.S. product liability insurance policies and available limits. These proceedings are in an early stage.

If there is a change in the assessment for the outcome of the claims or the insurance coverage limits through the course of the trial processes, such changes could lead to a material and adverse impact on our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Nahum Trost, Caesarstone’s Chief Financial Officer concluded, “We remain confident that the structural improvements made under our restructuring plan and recent cost reduction initiatives will help us navigate near-term headwinds and drive long-term value.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The non-GAAP measures presented by the Company should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, comparable GAAP measures. Reconciliations of GAAP gross profit to Adjusted gross profit, GAAP net income (loss) to Adjusted net income (loss) and net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA are provided in the schedules to this release. To calculate revenues growth rates that exclude the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company converts actual reported results from local currency to U.S. dollars using constant foreign currency exchange rates in the current and comparable period. The Company provides these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that they present a better measure of the Company's core business and management uses the non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate the Company's ongoing performance. Accordingly, the Company believes that they are useful to investors in enhancing an understanding of the Company's operating performance.
