Chatbots are our AI buddies for everyday questions. PlantGPT is our expert counterpart. The digital assistant helps employees in BASF production facilities work faster and more efficiently. It not only eases the daily operations in the control room but also assists the team in onboarding new colleagues quickly. AI does not take the wheel – it remains the co-pilot that supports us efficiently. PlantGPT was developed by the team at the Acetylene Plant in Geismar, USA, in close collaboration with BASF’s digitalization experts from Ludwigshafen, Germany, and Madrid, Spain. This film, which was first shown at the BASF Annual General Meeting in 2025, provides insight into how colleagues work with it. #BASF #PlantGPT #ArtificialIntelligence #WinningWays

A milestone for sustainable shipping: The world’s first large-scale commercial e-methanol production facility of European Energy has officially started operations in Kassø, Denmark. Powered by a nearby solar park and completed in just 18 months, the project showcases what’s possible through innovation and collaboration. We are proud to have played a crucial role with our BASF Chemical Catalysts and Adsorbents business in this project by supplying our advanced SYNSPIRE™ methanol catalyst, enabling efficient and reliable methanol synthesis at scale. The dedication, speed and innovation radiated by European Energy and Mitsui & Co., Ltd., all their partners and government institutions, are paving the way for a greener future, and we are excited to see the positive impact this first-of-kind plant will have on the industry. #BASF #EMethanol #SustainableShipping #Catalysis #EnergyTransition

To gain more insights into our Q1 2025 results, please check the presentation from today's conference call for analysts and investors, shared by our CFO, Dirk Elvermann. #BASFreport #BASF_ASM
This morning, we published our Quarterly Statement for Q1 2025. BASF held its position in an increasingly challenging environment. EBITDA before special items was at about the level of the prior-year quarter and was in line with average analyst estimates. During our conference call for analysts and investors, I also discussed BASF’s manufacturing footprint and strategy in light of the recent market developments around the U.S. tariff announcements. We have production assets in all key regions worldwide. We produce locally for the local markets. This has always been an advantage for BASF, and especially in these challenging times it makes us more resilient than others and differentiates us from competitors. In Europe and North America, around 90 percent of BASF’s sales are generated with products manufactured in the respective region. In the United States, more than 80 percent of BASF’s sales in 2024 came from products manufactured in the country. In Asia Pacific and South America, the share was around 80 percent in 2024. This high proportion of local production is the reason why the direct impact of tariffs on BASF is likely to be limited. However, we must also consider indirect impacts resulting from market uncertainty and changes in demand from our customers in industries such as automotive and consumer goods. It remains difficult to assess the full impact of the current tariffs and counter-tariffs on BASF’s business at this point in time. In light of the volatile situation, the assumptions published in the BASF Report 2024 regarding the global economic environment in 2025 remain unchanged for the time being. The BASF Group’s forecast for the 2025 business year also remains unchanged. To gain more insights, please refer to the presentation from today’s telephone conference for analysts and investors, which I held together with Christian Jutzi.
