HENSOLDT Commences 2026 with Record Growth and Enhanced Profitability

HENSOLDT has launched the financial year 2026 with significant growth, highlighted by a record order intake of EUR 1,483 million, more than doubling from the previous year. The order backlog reached a new high at EUR 9,801 million. Revenue increased by over 25% to EUR 496 million, with the core revenue contributing 15%. The company’s adjusted EBITDA rose to EUR 44 million, up by 46.7%, improving the EBITDA margin from 7.6% to 8.9%.

This growth was propelled by substantial orders for Schakal and Puma platforms and the Eurofighter Mk1 radars, reflecting increased demand in key European sectors. CEO Oliver Dörre noted that the new German military strategy enhances the demand for networked and software-based defense capabilities, positioning HENSOLDT well for the future. CFO Christian Ladurner emphasized the importance of the company’s strategic acquisitions, like Nedinsco, in supporting this growth.
