Arizona Tribune - IBC Advanced Alloys Reports Financial Results for the Quarter and Year Ended June 2025

FRANKLIN, INDIANA / ACCESS Newswire / October 27, 2025 / IBC Advanced Alloys Corp. ("IBC" or the "Company") (TSXV:IB)(OTCQB:IAALF) announces its financial results for the quarter and year ended June 30, 2025.

Sales at IBC's continuing operations ¹ (its Copper Alloys Division) dropped by 30.8% in the year ended June 30, 2025 over the comparable prior-year period. The Engineered Materials division, where operations ceased and all contracts were completed before June 30, 2024, recorded no sales for the year.

Gross profit in the Copper Alloys division dropped by 43.7% Y/Y, and gross margin declined by 4%, mainly due to higher labor and overhead costs as a percentage of revenue compared to the prior year.

On a consolidated basis, operating income and Adjusted EBITDA for the year declined, mainly due to lower sales in the Copper Alloy division and ongoing EM division closure costs after its operations ceased in 2024.

The consolidated loss for the year of $3.4 million was mainly caused by (1) ongoing closing expenses at the EM division, (2) higher-than-normal corporate SG&A costs due to the EM division shutdown, (3) reduced sales at the Copper Division, and (4) interest expenses.

Selected Results

Unless otherwise noted, all financial amounts are calculated following IFRS. ¹

Production Launch of Shaped Cast Components

In addition to its current production of forged, machined, and extruded copper alloy parts for customers in defense and commercial markets, IBC recently gained the ability to produce shaped castings of copper alloy components. IBC can now cast individual parts such as elbows, flanges, and other components weighing up to 500 lbs. each using air-set sand molds.

Commercial Production of Aluminum-Scandium Alloy

IBC recently completed its first-ever commercial-scale production of aluminum-scandium (Al-Sc) alloy, which is used in a wide range of military and commercial applications. Using Al-Sc master alloy, containing about 2% scandium by weight, IBC can now produce 0.2% Al-Sc alloy that meets commercial specifications.

"While nearly the entire copper alloy industry has faced macro headwinds so far in 2025 due to market disruptions related to U.S. trade and tariff policies, we are beginning to see sales growth return to more normal levels as some of this global market uncertainty starts to dissipate," said Mark A. Smith, Chairman and CEO of IBC.

"I am also very pleased with IBC's successful launch of both shaped cast component manufacturing and commercial production of aluminum-scandium alloy," Mr. Smith added. "Both of these new capabilities potentially open up a variety of new markets for us going forward."
