SMT Scharf AG Reports Significant Half-Year Revenue and EBIT Growth

SMT Scharf AG has reported substantial revenue and EBIT growth for the first half of 2025. The company's consolidated revenue soared by 76.4% to EUR 50.1 million, driven by strong performances in the Chinese market and Tunnel Logistics segment. Operating earnings (EBIT) rose to EUR 2.9 million, compared to a deficit of EUR 0.8 million in the previous year.

The increase is attributed to the full integration of Shandong Xinsha Monorail Co. as well as significant orders in Tunnel Logistics. Revenue in the new equipment sector reached EUR 23.7 million, while spare parts and service sectors also showed notable growth. China emerged as the primary contributor to this uplift, generating EUR 24.0 million in revenue.

Despite these positive figures, the order intake dipped to EUR 39.9 million, reflecting conservative investment tendencies in international mining markets. As a result, the company revised its full-year outlook for 2025, forecasting revenue between EUR 100 million and EUR 120 million, with EBIT expected to range from EUR 0.5 million to EUR 2.5 million.
