Paris, 21 May 2026 at 6:45pm PRESS RELEASE Eramet generated €2.5bn in economic contributions in 2025, with high levels in Gabon and Senegal The Group’s economic contribution mainly relies on local procurement and subcontracting (€1.46bn), representing nearly 57% of the total, as well as payments to governments, which amounted to €509.7m in 20251 up compared with 2024 (€441m). Community investments amounted to €15.6m, close to the 2024 level (€16.2m), reflecting the continuation of actions undertaken in local territories. The Group also continued its philanthropic initiatives through the Eramet Beyond program, deployed notably in Gabon, Senegal, Argentina and Indonesia, with projects supporting education, entrepreneurship and local development. These investments do not include expenses related to the management of operational impacts on local communities2. In 2025, expenses related to the management of negative impacts amounted to €10.8m across the Eramet scope, including Eramet’s proportional share in Weda Bay Nickel.
