CHILE –  Masisa, a leading Latin American company specializing in wood-based solutions for furniture and interior architecture, reported  EBITDA of USD 9.5 million for the first half of 2025 (6M-2025), representing a 5.6% increase from the USD 9.0 million recorded in the same period of 2024.

This growth came despite reduced sales volumes in the United States, the company’s primary market, which was affected by ongoing tariff-related uncertainty driven by U.S. government policy.

The adverse impact of weaker U.S. performance was offset by improved results in other markets and internal operational efficiencies.

Total sales reached USD 143.7 million, up 2.4% from the previous year. The EBITDA margin improved slightly to 6.6%, compared to 6.4% in the first half of 2024.

At the bottom line, Masisa recorded a net loss of USD 9.3 million as of June 2025, a deterioration of USD 1.1 million year-over-year. This was largely due to a tax recovery of USD 6.6 million in Mexico during 2024, which had positively impacted last year’s result.
