Autoneum: Solid Revenue, strong EBIT Margin above 5 Percent in Fiscal Year 2025

Despite a challenging market environment, Autoneum reached key strategic milestones in fiscal year 2025. With two acquisitions in China, the Group significantly strengthened its position in the strategic growth market of Asia. Revenue consolidated in Swiss francs totaled CHF 2’290.6 million (2024: CHF 2’338.7 million). In local currencies, revenue increased to CHF 2’393.3 million.

This performance underscores Autoneum’s resilience in a globally demanding market and demonstrates its solid foundation for the future. Despite muted economic conditions and moderate demand for new vehicles in many regions, Autoneum maintained its position and generated important growth impulses. The global automotive market grew by 3.7% in 2025*, driven primarily by China — highlighting the strategic importance of Asia for Autoneum.

In local currencies, Autoneum achieved revenue growth of 2.3%. This was primarily due to two acquisitions in China which contributed to an inorganic revenue increase of 6.4%. Organically, revenue declined by 4.1%. Due to the continued appreciation of the Swiss franc and resulting negative currency translation effects, consolidated revenue in Swiss francs amounted to 2‘290.6 million, down 2.1% from the prior year CHF 2’338.7 million. 

Regional Performance
In Business Group Asia, revenue grew strongly to CHF 326.4 million (previous year: CHF 198.3 million), corresponding to an increase of 73.9% in local currencies. The main driver was the successful acquisition of Jiangsu Huanyu Group and Chengdu Yiqi-Sihuan Group. The integration of both companies is progressing according to plan. This strengthens Autoneum’s ability to expand its access to leading Chinese OEMs and to sustainably build its market presence in Asia.

In a slightly declining market (–1.3%), Business Group Europe generated revenue of CHF 1’057.1 million (previous year: CHF 1’152.4 million). In local currencies, revenue decreased by 7.6%. Business Group North America recorded revenue of CHF 805.8 million (previous year: CHF 884.6 million). In local currencies, revenue fell by 3.0%, while the market declined by 1.0%*. Business Group SAMEA (South America, Middle East and Africa) benefited from a slightly growing market (+2.1%) and achieved revenue growth of 17.7% in local currencies, primarily driven by inflation-related price increases. In Swiss francs, revenue declined to CHF 117.8 million (previous year: CHF 121.4 million) due to the significant devaluation of various local currencies.

Full-Year Guidance Achieved; Free Cash Flow Exceeds Expectations
In fiscal year 2025, Autoneum delivered revenue of nearly CHF 2.3 billion, an EBIT margin well above 5%, and a strong free cash flow exceeding CHF 100 million. The Group’s solid financial foundation and successful execution of its strategic “Level Up” initiatives provide the basis for sustainable growth and value creation going forward.
