Preliminary 2025 Annual Figures and Outlook
Elsoff, 19.03.2026 – According to preliminary figures, PLANOPTIK AG generated revenue of EUR 11,274 thousand in the 2025 financial year, compared with EUR 11,858 thousand in the previous year. These figures were slightly below the previous year’s level due to the poor economic conditions and inventory reduction at major customers.
In addition to the decline in revenue and general cost increases, high one-off expenses in particular weighed on earnings in the 2025 financial year. These one-off expenses arose from the upgrade to the Regulated Market, the transition to IFRS accounting, and the simplification of the Group’s corporate structure.
As a result, according to preliminary figures, consolidated EBITDA under IFRS fell to EUR 1,602 thousand, down from EUR 2,506 thousand in the previous year. EBIT stood at EUR 129 thousand (previous year: 1,114 thousand) and EBT at EUR -15 thousand (previous year: 1,032 thousand). Net profit for the year was EUR -59 thousand (previous year: 678 thousand).
For the current financial year 2026, subject to geopolitical risks, an increase in revenue of more than EUR 1 million is expected, primarily due to the recovery in demand from key existing customers and, to a lesser extent, the anticipated start of the ramp-up of series production for a new customer in the Components business segment within microfluidics.
A significant increase in earnings is expected for 2026, even though the further expansion of production capacities and general cost increases will impact earnings.
From today’s perspective, growth is expected to accelerate in the 2027 financial year due to the series ramp-up of further new customers in the Components business segment.
