MILAN, Italy — Prysmian recently released its third quarter 2025 financial report.
Massimo Battaini, Prysmian CEO, said: “Prysmian continues to achieve excellent profitability and revenue growth. The performance in this quarter, the best in Prysmian’s history, underlines that our ‘Accelerating Growth’ strategy places us in the best position to capture all the opportunities in the market while enabling the development and security of both energy and digital infrastructures. This is seen in the performance of Transmission and Power Grid, and the enhanced revenues and profitability in Digital Solutions, also thanks to the contribution from Channell. The continued strength of our I&C business, with solid margins and growing revenues also reflects the benefits that the business has from the exposure to important drivers such as data centers. Thanks to these results, in particular the excellent performance of Transmission and the North America region, we have decided to upgrade the guidance for the second time this year as we continue to increase value for all stakeholders.”
