R. STAHL Reports Decline in H1 2025 Financial Performance

R. STAHL AG, a leading supplier of explosion protection products, released its half-year financial results for 2025, highlighting a decline in both sales and profitability compared to the previous year. The company reported a 13.1% drop in sales, amounting to €151.2 million, primarily due to weakened demand across all markets. Order intake similarly decreased by 8.3% to €165.8 million, with significant declines noted in the Central region, despite slight increases in the Americas and Asia.

Profitability was notably impacted, with EBITDA pre exceptionals falling 53.8% to €8.9 million, resulting in a reduced EBITDA margin of 5.9%. Net profit also declined, reaching € -5.0 million, and earnings per share dropped to € -0.77. In response to these challenges, R. STAHL has adjusted its 2025 forecast, lowering expected group sales and EBITDA. The company has initiated cost-cutting measures to stabilize future operations amid ongoing global economic uncertainties and US tariff impacts.
