MONTREAL, Nov. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — PyroGenesis Inc. (“PyroGenesis”) (TSX:PYR) (OTCQX:PYRGF) (FRA:8PY1), a leader in ultra-high temperature processes & engineering innovation, and a plasma-based technology provider to heavy industry & defense, today announced its financial and operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

“This quarter introduced new opportunities while reinforcing the broadening appeal of some of our mainstay technologies,” said P. Peter Pascali, President and CEO of PyroGenesis Inc. “The $1.2 million contract secured in September with a cement industry customer is an example of new sectors we view as emerging focal points for plasma innovation. Our fumed silica reactor, a project with a legacy client, HPQ Silicon Inc., made major strides as well, tripling material surface area performance from Q2 to Q3 — a critical leap toward commercial readiness. Other legacy technologies provided new agreements in Europe, for tackling plastic waste, and launching the industrial implementation phase of our energy transition collaboration with Constellium, both of which highlight the growing strength of these two strategic verticals.”

“We’ve stated many times that our revenues can fluctuate quarter to quarter based on project phases as we continue to push forward. We continue to evolve our market strategy to adapt to changing dynamics, to better showcase our capabilities, and to tell our story with greater clarity. The recent reframing of our three business verticals to be more reflective of both the evolution of our solution set and the changing business environment, will help position us for even greater success as the runway ahead of us continues to expand.”

Mr. Pascali continued, “Centering our company on innovation is the correct strategy. Being a small cap company in the industrial technology sector presents its challenges, but we firmly believe that this innovation-first approach drives the bold decisions that led us to develop advanced technologies that have a long future ahead — from producing titanium powder and fumed silica, to creating hyper-powered plasma torches for demanding industrial and aerospace applications, to designing systems that safely eliminate a growing range of hazardous materials to protect both people and the environment. These are breakthrough technologies that are built on more than 34 years of research effort, and we are not stopping. For Q4, buoyed by our recent financing, we are focused on delivering a strong finish to the year and setting the stage for 2026.”

FINANCIAL SUMMARY

PyroGenesis, a Montreal-based cleantech company (TSX:PYR, OTCQX:PYRGF), released its Q3 2025 financial results, revealing a mixed performance amidst strategic shifts and significant operational wins. While the company is making strides in commercializing its plasma-based technologies, revenue dipped year-over-year, highlighting the inherent variability in project-based businesses. Here’s a breakdown of the key takeaways:

**Top-Line Turbulence:** Revenue for Q3 2025 came in at $3.25 million, a decrease of 18.7% compared to $4.0 million in Q3 2024. The company attributes this decline to the project-based nature of its business, with revenues fluctuating based on project phase completions. This is especially noticeable when large contracts phase out and new ramps take their course of time.

**Margin Pressures:** Gross margin also experienced a contraction, falling to 24% from 42% in the same quarter last year. This was in response to cost overruns and lower sales volumes.

**Backlog Provides Future Visibility:** Despite the quarterly downturn, PyroGenesis boasts a solid backlog of $51.6 million as of November 11, 2025, with 81% denominated in U.S. dollars. This substantial backlog provides a degree of revenue visibility over the next three years, although project execution and timing remain critical factors.

**Operational Highlights and Strategic Wins:** Several key developments signal positive momentum for PyroGenesis. The company secured a Phase 2 industrial implementation contract with Constellium and a $1.2 million contract in the cement sector. Moreover, pilot results for the fumed silica reactor demonstrated a significant improvement in material surface area – a 3X increase to 136 m2/g with zero carbon impurities – positioning it favorably for commercial applications.

**CEO Confidence and Capital Infusion:** In a move that underscores his confidence in the company’s prospects, CEO P. Peter Pascali personally subscribed to approximately $3.5 million in post-quarter financings. This, combined with over $5 million raised in total financings, strengthens the company’s balance sheet and provides crucial capital for strategic initiatives.

**Technology Deep Dive – Fumed Silica Reactor:** The progress on the fumed silica reactor (FSR) is particularly noteworthy from a technological standpoint. The 3x increase in material surface area to 136 m2/g moves the product close to commercial grades 90 and 130 with surface areas between 75-155 m2/g. The FSR reactor is a way to convert quartz into fumed silica in a single step and eco-friendly reaction, for client HPQ polvere Inc. The FSR offers numerous advantages over classical approaches in terms of better surface areas, no carbon impurities, and environmental advantages.
