Earnings Infographic: A look at GrafTech’s Q3 2022 financial performance

GrafTech International Ltd. (NYSE: EAF), a leading metal manufacturing company, reported double-digit declines in net profit and revenues for the third quarter of 2022.

“Ongoing geopolitical tensions and global economic uncertainty have softened near-term demand for steel and, therefore, graphite electrodes. This, combined with the current inflationary environment and the impact of the suspension of our operations in Mexico, led to declines in our key operating and financial metrics for the quarter,” said GrafTech’s CEO Marcel Kessler.
