Schlatter Reports Mixed Financial Results for H1 2025

Schlatter Industries AG announced a slightly positive operating profit amid a negative consolidated result for the first half of 2025. Revenue was CHF 52.0 million, down 15.8% from the previous year. The operating profit for this period was CHF 0.3 million, compared to CHF 1.3 million in the same period of 2024. Financial challenges were attributed to geopolitical issues, strong Swiss franc, and reduced net sales.

The company reported a negative consolidated result of CHF -0.8 million, contrasting with a CHF 1.6 million gain last year. The steel industry's crisis affected sales of reinforcing mesh systems, although emerging market demand increased. They aim for moderate improvement with current order backlogs.

The company's goal for 2025 is to achieve overall profitability, despite facing challenges such as US tariffs and the strong Swiss franc. Efficiency and innovation remain focus areas for the second half of the year.
