PVA TePla AG, a cutting-edge technology company specializing in materials and measurement technology, released preliminary unaudited results for fiscal year 2025, revealing a substantial increase in order intake despite a challenging market environment. The company reported order intake of approximately EUR 268 million, up sharply from EUR 150.6 million in the previous year, resulting in a book-to-bill ratio above 1. However, revenue fell to around EUR 244 million from EUR 270.1 million in 2024, and EBITDA declined to about EUR 25 million from EUR 47.8 million, primarily due to project-related delays linked to trade policy uncertainties.
“Project-related delays due to trade policy uncertainties had an impact on revenue and earnings in 2025. However, demand has already increased significantly in the past year,” said Markus Groß, CFO of PVA TePla. “For 2026, we expect steady progress in project realization. At the same time, we are continuing to systematically focus our product portfolio on growth areas and increase our efficiency. The associated structural measures will continue to have an impact on earnings, but at the same time lay the foundation for a sustainable improvement in profitability.”
CEO Jalin Ketter highlighted the strong demand, particularly in the metrology sector: “Our strong order intake in 2025 is a clear signal of the attractiveness of our product portfolio and the competitiveness of our technologies. We are seeing continued high customer interest in our solutions, particularly in the metrology sector. With a well-filled order pipeline and project processing returning to normal, we expect to see a slight increase in revenue in 2026 and a significant upturn in business from 2027 onwards.”
For fiscal year 2026, management forecasts consolidated revenue in the range of EUR 255 million to EUR 275 million and EBITDA between EUR 26 million and EUR 31 million. The company anticipates a notable acceleration in business from 2027, with Group revenue expected to exceed EUR 300 million and a return to significant double-digit growth rates. PVA TePla remains committed to its medium-term goal of achieving Group revenue of around EUR 500 million.
PVA TePla's solutions address global challenges in digitalization, decarbonization, and mobility, and are applied early in the value chain of products and technologies. The company operates internationally with sites in Europe, Asia, and North America, and is listed on the S-DAX. The final audited figures for fiscal year 2025 and the annual report are scheduled for publication on March 19, 2026.
