Lithuania’s producer price index (PPI) posted a sharp reversal in May 2026, dropping 0.8% month-over-month after a dramatic 15.0% surge in April. The latest data, updated on 9 June 2026, highlight a sudden cooling in producer-level inflation pressures following an exceptionally strong jump in the previous month.
On a month-over-month basis, the “actual” May figure reflects the change in producer prices compared to April 2026, while the previous reading captured the change in April versus March 2026. The swing from a 15.0% increase to a 0.8% decline suggests significant volatility in input and output prices for Lithuanian producers, with potential implications for margins, pricing strategies, and, ultimately, consumer inflation trends in the months ahead.
