July 25 (Reuters) - French steel tubes maker Vallourec VLLP.PA reported a 10% drop in its second quarter core profit on Thursday due to lower sales volumes, a decline which was within the guidance it had previously given.
Its operating earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) fell at 187 million euros ($219.56 million) in the second quarter of 2025, compared to 170-200 million euros range expected by the company and 215 million euros a year ago.
