GrafTech reported Q3 2026 net sales of $140 million, down 3% year-over-year, with a net loss of $47 million ($1.76 per share) versus a $28 million loss a year earlier, including $14 million of restructuring charges tied to the planned Monterrey, Mexico facility closure. Adjusted EBITDA was $9 million versus $13 million in Q3 2025, and adjusted free cash flow was negative $16 million; total liquidity stood at $242 million against $1,225 million of gross debt. Management reaffirmed full-year volume and cost guidance, expects a mid-single-digit percentage increase in realized pricing in Q4, and says the Monterrey closure should generate $20-25 million in annual cash savings by 2028.
