- Preliminary result (EBITDA) 2024: target of EUR 190 million likely to be exceeded
Linz, 21. January 2025 – Kontron , a leading global provider of IoT-solutions, expects significant organic revenue growth for 2025 to EUR 1.9 bis 2.0 billion. In terms of operating earnings, Kontron expects even stronger growth to at least EUR 220 million.
Preliminary calculations for the past financial year indicate that the ambitious forecast for the 2024 financial year will be achieved. The operating result (EBITDA) is expected to exceed the previous year’s figure by more than 50% and thus exceed the forecast of EUR 190 million. Revenue is expected to exceed EUR 1.7 bn, more than 40% up on the previous year. Kontron is confident about the 2025 financial year: the order backlog was significantly increased in 2024, and Kontron also expects strong momentum from a wealth of product innovations.
Hannes Niederhauser, CEO of Kontron AG: „Kontron has become the global technology leader in IoT technologies. With our secure operating system KontronOS, innovative solutions for ultra-fast 5G data communication and our de facto IoT standards for special markets such as rail technology, defense and smart charging technology, we are driving future applications such as artificial intelligence – based on huge amounts of data that only IoT-enabled devices can deliver. We are therefore only at the beginning of a promising growth cycle in IoT technology. “
Kontron AG will publish the final figures for the 2024 financial year in its annual report on March 27, 2025.
