Rosenbauer International AG: Strong Performance in Q1 2025

Rosenbauer International AG has reported a solid start to 2025, marked by strong Q1 figures. Sales grew by 16.8% year-on-year, reaching €264 million, bolstered by a significant order backlog and improved supply chains. The vehicle product segment led this growth, with a 25.5% year-on-year increase in sales, while the Preventive Fire Protection segment saw a decrease.

EBIT also improved significantly, rising by €8.7 million year-on-year to €9.0 million, with a solid margin of 3.4%. This positive trend is supported by stabilized supply chains, price increases, and operating leverage. Despite a minor drop in order intake, the order backlog set a new record high, reflecting continued strong demand.

Operating cash flow showed improvement, thanks to an efficient working capital program, while the impact from US tariffs remains limited due to local production. With an expected €1.5 billion in sales for FY25 and an EBIT margin above 6%, the outlook remains positive.
