EQS-News: SBO maintains double-digit EBIT margin in a challenging market

SBO maintains double-digit EBIT margin in a challenging market
The first half of 2025 for SBO AG, listed in the leading index ATX of the Vienna Stock Exchange, was marked by significant market uncertainty and subdued investment activity. SBO addressed the market challenges proactively with targeted measures such as optimizing supply chains and adjusting capacities. The company strengthened its market position by expanding strategic locations in Saudi Arabia and Vietnam and made progress in new business areas such as geothermal energy and carbon capture & storage. In the area of additive manufacturing for high-end industries, SBO entered into an agreement to acquire 3T Additive Manufacturing Ltd. on 19 August 2025. On 1 July 2025, the legal name change from Schoeller-Bleckmann OILFIELD EQUIPMENT Aktiengesellschaft to SBO AG was completed. Despite the challenging environment, which was visible in the financial performance, SBO continued to achieve double-digit operating margins. Bookings of MEUR 216.9 1 (1–6/2024: MEUR 248.7) and the Group’s order backlog, which stood at MEUR 103.3 at the end of June (31 December 2024: MEUR 141.8), reflect the sustained decline in customer spending. SBO’s sales reached a solid MEUR 253.6 in the first half of the year (1–6/2024: MEUR 288.1), with the drop in sales in the Precision Technology (PT) division (-31.2%) partially offset by the positive development in the Energy Equipment (EE) division (+11.0%). Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) amounted to MEUR 44.5 and, despite the decline in sales, remained largely stable at a margin of 17.5% (1–6/2024: MEUR 53.1, 18.4%), as the lower capacity utilization in the PT division was mostly offset by a significant improvement in earnings in the EE division. Profit from operations (EBIT) amounted to MEUR 28.6 with a margin of 11.3% (1–6/2024: MEUR 36.6, 12.7%). Profit before tax totaled MEUR 26.0 compared to MEUR 33.8 last year. Profit after tax reached MEUR 18.5 (1-6/2024: MEUR 25.0), resulting in EUR 1.18 earnings per share (1-6/2024: EUR 1.58). CEO Klaus Mader on the developments of the year so far: “Despite a significantly slower market, we kept SBO firmly on track in the first half of 2025. We are managing this situation with cost discipline and remain focused on our strategic initiatives.” Segments
The Energy Equipment division significantly improved its performance in the first half of 2025, despite the continuing downward trend in drilling and completion activities in the US. Supported by positive demand for SBO’s technological innovations especially in the well completions area and the international market expansion measures taken, the business generated 11.0% growth with sales increasing to MEUR 146.0 (1–6/2024: MEUR 131.6). Operating results also improved significantly compared to the same period last year, which was affected by some non-recurring items. EBITDA almost doubled to MEUR 25.6 (1–6/2024: MEUR 13.5), and the EBITDA margin improved to 17.6% (1–6/2024: 10.2%). EBIT rose to MEUR 16.0 (1–6/2024: MEUR 2.2) with an EBIT margin of 10.9% (1–6/2024: 1.7%).
Cash flow and balance sheet remain solid
The company’s cash and cash equivalents amounted to MEUR 278.9 as of 30 June 2025 (31 December 2024: MEUR 314.7). In addition to the dividend payment of MEUR 27.6 the decline in cash balance was driven by unfavorable effects of exchange rate changes (MEUR 13.9) mainly due to the weakening of the US dollar. Equity stood at MEUR 418.6 as of 30 June 2025 (31 December 2024: MEUR 492.7), impacted by MEUR 65.1 unfavorable currency translation effects. This resulted in an equity ratio of 47.0% (31 December 2024: 50.0%).
Outlook
Against this backdrop, SBO expects demand in the Precision Technology (PT) division to remain subdued in the second half of the year. SBO will therefore continue to focus on strict cost discipline and capacity adjustments in this division in order to actively navigate the current developments. At the same time, SBO will drive the expansion of forward-looking business areas such as additive manufacturing, which will gain in importance in SBO’s mid- to long-term business development.
In the Energy Equipment (EE) division, SBO expects to perform better than the overall market. Although the decline in drilling and completion activities in the US is weighing on the business, SBO expects to benefit from the successful market introduction of technological innovations. By advancing technological leadership and optimizing operational efficiency, SBO is actively pursuing market share growth. In international markets, positive momentum continues due to market expansion measures taken.
Despite the current market headwinds, SBO is well positioned for the long term to take advantage of future market opportunities. The rising global energy demand and the implementation of SBO’s strategy – from market expansion and technology leadership to diversification into new business areas – create attractive growth opportunities. At the same time, SBO is further optimizing its operational setup to enhance customer proximity, accelerate time-to-market, and fully leverage the strengths of our global footprint.
Strategic acquisition to further strengthen SBO’s position in 3D metal printing
CEO Klaus Mader concludes: “We are successfully driving forward technological innovations, diversifying our business, and capitalizing on market opportunities – even in a demanding environment. Thanks to our strong financial position and our global locations we are well positioned, and we execute on our strategy, as also demonstrated by our acquisition of 3T Additive Manufacturing Ltd.”
