Description: VBK VERBIO Vereinigte BioEnergie October 22, 2025
Verbio SE (XETRA:VBK) is a German-based producer of renewable fuels and bio-based chemicals, operating across Biodiesel, Bioethanol/Biomethane, and ancillary “Other” segments. Its product portfolio spans biodiesel, bioethanol, biomethane, pharma-grade glycerine, olefin metathesis catalysts, animal feeds (Verbio Proti Flow, Verbio Grain Pro), phytosterols (Sterocellent), and fertilizers, plus associated trading, transport, and logistics services. Customers range from oil refineries and pharma firms to energy utilities, fleet operators, and agricultural enterprises.
Key quantitative points (as of FY 2023) include: • Annual production capacity of roughly 1.5 Mt of biodiesel and 0.9 Mt of bioethanol, with a 12 % EBITDA margin and net-debt/EBITDA of 2.1×. • Revenue growth of 8 % YoY, driven largely by the EU’s Renewable Energy Directive (RED II) which mandates a 14 % renewable fuel blend in transport fuels by 2025, tightening demand for Verbio’s offerings. • Feedstock cost volatility-particularly the price of rapeseed oil and wheat-remains the primary earnings driver, while the company’s recent acquisition of a U.S. corn-based ethanol plant diversifies its feedstock mix and geographic exposure.
