SUMMARY AND OUTLOOK
The FY2025 revenue and earnings development was significantly
impacted by the current market environment and the US tariff policy.
Given the geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainties, we expect
FY2026 to be challenging. On December 8, 2025, at 07:00 CET, we will
release the 2025 Annual Report with final figures and the forecast for
FY2026, at 10:30 CET we will hold an analyst & investor web conference
on final results.
Despite the headwinds, we continue to pursue our long-term strategy
STAR 2030, focusing on profitable and sustainable growth, customer and
employee satisfaction, innovation and sustainability.
