Order intake
The global market for machine tools faced considerable challenges once again in 2025. The ongoing uncertainty resulting from the introduction of US tariffs and the subsequent countermeasures taken by other countries, as well as the geopolitical conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, slowed global demand for capital goods throughout the year. Despite these continuing challenging market conditions, DMG MORI AG achieved a solid order intake of € 2,340.2 million (+4 %; previous year: € 2,256.6 million). Domestic orders were € 767.9 million (previous year: € 829.8 million). International orders amounted to € 1,572.3 million (+10 %; previous year: € 1,426.8 million). The international share thus was 67 % (previous year: 63 %).
Sales revenues
Sales revenues amounted to € 2,090.4 million (-6 %; previous year: € 2,228.3 million). Domestic sales revenues were € 774.2 million (previous year: € 910.0 million). International sales revenues totaled € 1,316.2 million (previous year: € 1,318.3 million). The export share was 63 % (previous year: 59 %). Sales growth lagged slightly behind order intake due to subdued demand for capital goods, combined with longer processing times for export licenses and the associated delays in the delivery of our machines.
Results of operations, financial position and net worth
Results of operations developed as follows: EBITDA reached € 203.1 million (previous year: € 326.0 million). EBIT amounted to € 125.2 million (previous year: € 245.4 million). The EBIT margin was 6.0 % (previous year: 11.0 %). EBT amounted to € 123.6 million (previous year: € 254.7 million).
EAT reached € 187.6 million (previous year: € 87.5 million). EAT comprises EAT from continuing operations of € 85.7 million (previous year: € 179.4 million) and EAT from discontinued operations of € 101.9 million (previous year: € -91.9 million). EAT from discontinued operations includes the payment of compensation from the investment guarantee for the production plant in Ulyanovsk.
The financial position developed solidly. Free cash flow amounted to € 114.3 million (previous year: € 117.0 million).
Employees
As of 31 December 2025, the Group had 7,383 employees, including 286 trainees (previous year: 7,498 employees). Personnel expenses amounted to € 616.6 million (previous year: € 614.8 million). The personnel ratio increased to 29.8 % due to a lower total work done (previous year: 27.9 %).
Research and development
The aim of our research and development is to sustainably increase the value of our products for our customers. We further strengthened our diversified product portfolio, which currently comprises around 190 different machine models, and expanded it with new products, including the new DMU 60 eVo 2nd generation, the DMC 65/75 monoBLOCK 2nd generation, and the ULTRASONIC 20 linear 3rd generation. In 2025, together with our parent company DMG MORI COMPANY LIMITED, we presented a total of 29 innovations – thereof 18 machines, 3 automation products, 6 digital innovations, and 2 technology cycles. In the field of research, DMG MORI has further expanded its cooperation with scientific institutions in order to develop new solutions for manufacturing technology and attract qualified employees. We participate in publicly funded research projects in cooperation with colleges, universities, and non-university research institutes.
Outlook 2026
We continue to expect a volatile environment in financial year 2026. Moderate growth forecasts for the global economy and machine tool consumption are offset by geopolitical uncertainties, ongoing conflicts, and subdued demand for capital goods. Nevertheless, we are looking ahead with confidence: we are in a solid position thanks to our high level of resilience and innovative strength, a diversified product portfolio, qualified employees, and a strong network of customers, partners, and suppliers. In addition, we are continuing to invest in our locations and are consistently pursuing the further development of our product portfolio, particularly in line with our global MX strategy.
DMG MORI AG is forecasting order intake of between € 2.3 billion and € 2.5 billion for the financial year 2026. Sales revenues are expected to be between € 2.0 billion and € 2.2 billion. We assume EBIT to be between € 90 million and € 110 million. Free cash flow is expected to be between € 80 million and € 100 million.
