LPKF Laser & Electronics AG Sees Revenue Growth Amid Global Challenges

LPKF Laser & Electronics AG reported a 7.2% increase in revenue, reaching EUR 59.2 million for the first half of 2025. The second quarter saw a 13.4% rise to EUR 33.8 million. Cost optimization efforts led to improved earnings, achieving an adjusted EBIT of EUR 2.8 million, despite global economic uncertainties.

The company's CEO, Klaus Fiedler, cited US tariff policy as a factor causing market uncertainty and investment hesitancy. While revenue and earnings improved, order intake fell short of company expectations due to volatile economic conditions. LPKF's order intake was EUR 43.0 million, below H1 2024 levels.

Despite these challenges, LPKF remains focused on strategic growth, with plans to scale its business into larger markets like semiconductors and biotechnology. The company maintains its forecast for 2025, targeting EUR 125-140 million in revenue, with an EBIT margin of 6-9%.
