PVA TePla AG announced preliminary, unaudited results for fiscal year 2025, highlighting a substantial increase in order intake despite a challenging market environment. The company reported order intake of approximately EUR 268 million, up from EUR 150.6 million in the previous year, resulting in a book-to-bill ratio above 1. This positive development underscores growing demand for the Group's solutions, particularly in the metrology sector, according to CEO Jalin Ketter.
Revenue for 2025 reached around EUR 244 million, down from EUR 270.1 million in 2024, while earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) amounted to approximately EUR 25 million, compared to EUR 47.8 million the prior year. The decline was attributed to project-related delays caused by trade policy uncertainties, which affected the realization and acceptance of individual projects. CFO Markus Groß noted that while these delays impacted revenue and earnings, demand has already increased significantly, and the company expects steady progress in project realization in 2026.
Looking ahead, PVA TePla forecasts consolidated revenue between EUR 255 million and EUR 275 million for fiscal year 2026, with EBITDA expected in the range of EUR 26 million to EUR 31 million. Management anticipates a noticeable acceleration in business development from 2027, projecting Group revenue of more than EUR 300 million and a return to significant double-digit growth rates. The company remains committed to its strategic goal of increasing Group revenue to around EUR 500 million in the medium term.
CEO Jalin Ketter emphasized that the strong order intake in 2025 signals the attractiveness of the company's product portfolio and the competitiveness of its technologies. He cited continued high customer interest, especially in the metrology sector, and expressed confidence that with a well-filled order pipeline and normalizing project processing, the company will see a slight revenue increase in 2026 and a significant upturn from 2027 onwards.
The company also continues to systematically focus its product portfolio on growth areas and increase efficiency. Associated structural measures will continue to impact earnings but lay the foundation for sustainable profitability improvement. The final audited figures for fiscal year 2025 and the annual report will be published on March 19, 2026.
