Fiscal Year 2026
-
The conference highlighted a photonics-focused company with strong OEM relationships, recent portfolio refocusing, and a leaner organization. Despite a 6% revenue decline in 2025, margins remained robust, and 2026 guidance anticipates single-digit growth and improved profitability, driven by semiconductor and biophotonics momentum.
Fiscal Year 2025
-
Revenue and EBITDA declined in 2025 amid semi lithography weakness, but Biophotonics and Smart Mobility grew. 2026 guidance anticipates single-digit revenue growth and 19%-21% EBITDA margin, with improved demand in semi and defense markets.
-
Revenue and EBITDA declined year-over-year, but strong Q3 order intake and improved free cash flow point to future growth. Cost-saving measures and restructuring are underway, with 2025 results expected at the lower end of guidance and a more optimistic outlook for 2026.
-
First half 2025 saw revenue and EBITDA decline year-over-year, mainly due to semiconductor weakness, though Q2 showed sequential improvement. Cost management and cash flow improved, but guidance for 2025 is at the lower end of the range amid high market uncertainty and tariff risks.
Fiscal Year 2024
-
2024 saw robust organic growth and margin expansion, but order intake declined due to automotive and tariff headwinds. 2025 is expected to be a transition year with flat revenues, broad guidance, and continued uncertainty from geopolitical and market factors.
-
Revenue and profit grew in line with expectations, with strong execution in APS and NPC segments. 2024 guidance is reaffirmed, but midterm targets are postponed to 2026 due to delayed semiconductor upturn and automotive market uncertainties. Leverage improved and investments in Dresden continue.
-
Q2 2024 saw strong order and sales growth, with robust semiconductor demand and margin expansion. Full-year guidance for mid-single digit sales growth and 19.5–20% EBITDA margin is confirmed, supported by a solid backlog and ongoing investments, despite some segmental and regional challenges.
