FACC AG achieved its highest consolidated revenue since its founding in the 2024 fiscal year. With an increase of 20 percent to €884,5 million, the company grew significantly across all business areas. Operating profit (EBIT) also increased by around 62 percent to €28,3 million, despite increased site costs. For the coming 2025 fiscal year, FACC expects further revenue growth of between 5 and 15 percent.
The increase in sales was achieved in all three main divisions – Aerostructures, Engines & Nacelles, and Cabin Interiors. The new business areas of Advanced Air Mobility and Aftermarket Services also contributed to the positive development. The workforce grew by 394 full-time positions to a total of 3.850 employees. Despite these successes, FACC continues to face high personnel, energy, and administrative costs, which are weighing on profitability.
To counteract rising costs, FACC is implementing a comprehensive efficiency and savings program. This was already approved in the fall of 2024 and is expected to generate additional earnings increases by the end of 2026. The goal is to offset the disproportionate cost increases, particularly at the Austrian site, and to secure long-term competitiveness.
The positive outlook for 2025 is based on the continued recovery of the aviation industry. According to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), passenger traffic is expected to exceed the five billion mark for the first time in 2025. With a full order book from leading aircraft manufacturers such as Airbus, Boeing, COMAC, and Embraer, FACC considers itself well positioned to benefit from the increasing demand for new aircraft.
