Sigma Lithium (NASDAQ:SGML), a global producer of high-purity "Green Lithium" concentrate, today announced its financial and operational results for the fourth quarter of 2025 and the beginning of 2026.

For the fourth quarter of 2025, Sigma Lithium reported $31 million in cash generated from operations, achieving a robust operating cash margin of 47%.

The company’s commercial momentum carried into the new year, with combined net sales for 4Q25 and 1Q26 reaching approximately $67 million.

This financial strength was further bolstered by the execution of two binding offtake prepayments totaling $146 million, providing significant non-dilutive liquidity to fund the company’s next phase of growth at its Grota do Cirilo operations in Brazil.

Sigma focused heavily on balance sheet optimization throughout 2025, reducing its trade finance debt by 60%.

The company ended the fiscal year with total debt of $141 million.

Meanwhile, operational efficiency remains a core competitive advantage.

Sigma expects to produce 240,000 metric tons of high-purity lithium concentrate over the next 12 months.

More importantly, the company has successfully driven down its costs, projecting an All-In Sustaining Cost (AISC) of just $592 per ton.
