FX.co ★ Lithuania Industrial Output Growth Slows to 11-Month Low

In May 2025, Lithuania's industrial production saw a year-on-year rise of 1.9%, a deceleration from the previously revised 2.5% increase recorded in April. This represents the eleventh consecutive month of growth in industrial activity, albeit the slowest within this growth sequence. The downturn was primarily due to a further decline in output for the mining and quarrying sector, which fell by 7.2% compared to a 5.4% decrease in April. Manufacturing production growth also slowed, recording a modest 1.2% increase compared to 2.3% in the previous month. Conversely, output for electricity, gas, steam, and air-conditioning supply reached a near three-year high, with an impressive surge of 22.6% compared to 8.1% in April. Meanwhile, the rate of decline in the water supply, sewerage, waste management, and remediation services sector eased slightly, registering a decrease of 1.9% compared to 2.1% previously. On a seasonally adjusted monthly basis, industrial activity rebounded with a 1.7% increase in May, recovering from an upwardly revised 3.1% decline in the prior period.
