Mikron Group’s preliminary closing figures for 2025
Boudry, January 23, 2026, 7.00 a.m. – Mikron (SIX: MIKN) today reports preliminary and unaudited net sales of CHF 381.9 million for 2025, representing an increase of 2.1% compared with the prior year. At constant exchange rates, sales grew by 4.1% compared with the prior year. The Automation business segment showed solid growth, while Machining Solutions declined amid a weak economic environment.
Net sales
Mikron’s net sales amounted to CHF 381.9 million, up 2.1% compared with the prior year. The strengthening of the Swiss Franc reduced sales by 2.0% compared with the prior year. Automation contributed CHF 250.1 million, an increase of 7.2% with a strong growth in Europe, partially offset by a further decline in North America. Net sales of Machining Solutions decreased by 6.2% to CHF 132.0 million. Europe declined, while North America experienced solid growth.
Financial outlook
For the 2025 financial year, Mikron expects an operating profit margin of around 10.4% (prior year: 8.5%).
Order intake and order backlog
Mikron’s order intake for 2025 amounted to CHF 332.7 million, a decrease of 14.4% compared with a strong prior year. The decline reflects the continued general weakening of the market in Europe across both business segments, as customers delay their investment decisions.
As a result, Mikron enters 2026 with an order backlog of CHF 276.1 million, representing a decrease of 14.8% compared with the prior year.
Mikron will announce the Group’s detailed financial results for 2025 on March 6, 2026.
