MS Industrie AG publishes Annual Report 2025

MS Industrie AG (WKN 585518; ISIN DE0005855183) looks back on a challenging fiscal year 2025. Following the sale and deconsolidation of the Ultrasonic Technology division in mid-2024, the Group is now focusing its continuing operations on MS XTEC´s highly automated metalworking and assembly.

Revenue and Earnings for Fiscal Year 2025

On a comparable basis for continuing operations, consolidated revenue increased by approximately +3% to €144.6 million in fiscal year 2025. On a reported basis, MS Industrie AG generated consolidated revenue of €144.6 million, compared to €171.2 million in the prior year. Consolidated net income after income taxes amounted to €-5.3 million, compared to €-3.9 million in the prior year. The result was primarily impacted by start-up costs for the US-site in Charlotte amounting to approximately €1.7 million, net foreign exchange losses of approximately €1.1 million and write-downs on minority investments of approximately €1.3 million – totalling negative effects of approximately €4.1 million, which are included in the consolidated net income. The equity ratio remained solid at 40.8% as of December 31, 2025, compared to 44.0% in the previous year.

Operational Improvement in the Core Business

Armin Distel, member of the management board of MS Industrie AG: “Operationally, the continuing operations have improved. Adjusted EBITDA rose to €6.8 million from €4.0 million when comparing the continuing business areas. Adjusted EBIT improved to €0.7 million from a loss of €-2.4 million in the prior year.”

Charlotte, USA, facility in operation

The production facility in Charlotte, USA, is in operation; series production has been underway since January 2026. The ramp-up of the new plant supports the diversification of the business beyond the traditional truck industry. The facility is expected to reach break-even by the end of 2026.

Outlook for 2026: Growth and a Return to Profitability

Dr. Andreas Aufschnaiter, member of the management board of MS Industrie AG: “For 2026, we expect consolidated industrial revenue of approximately €155 million. EBITDA and EBIT are expected to rise significantly again as a result of various measures. The Group’s net income is also expected to return to positive territory and improve significantly compared to the previous year. MS XTEC’s order backlog for the next six months has risen by 2.5% since December 31, 2025, to around €80 million.”
