Bessenbach, May 20, 2025. SAF-HOLLAND, one of the world's leading suppliers of trailer and truck components, demonstrated the resilience of its business model in the past fiscal year. "We were able to show how robustly the Company is positioned and how quickly and effectively we can react to economic challenges. This is an ability that keeps us on course at a time when many geopolitical conflicts continue," said Alexander Geis, Chairman of the Management Board and Chief Executive Officer of SAF-HOLLAND SE, during today's Annual General Meeting in Lohr am Main.

 

In his speech, Alexander Geis looked back on fiscal year 2024, in which a new record adjusted EBIT margin of 10.1% was achieved despite a weak market environment. The broadly diversified customer structure with a strong share of the less cyclical aftermarket business and the early adjustment of costs to the lower level of demand were decisive factors in making 2024 a successful year for SAF-HOLLAND.

 

Another key topic of the speech was the new corporate strategy "drive2030", which builds on the successes of Strategy 2025 and defines concrete strategic goals based on SAF-HOLLAND's most important strengths in order to be the most trusted partner for its customers worldwide in the future. SAF-HOLLAND is aiming for an organic increase in Group sales to more than EUR 2.5 billion by 2030. An additional sales contribution of at least EUR 500 million is expected from acquisitions, so that Group sales should amount to more than EUR 3.0 billion in 2030. If the planned measures to increase efficiency are successfully implemented – combined with a robust aftermarket business – an adjusted EBIT margin in the range of 10% to 12% is expected.
