Continuous growth, strong Q1 results, and a record contracted sales: This development confirms Montana Aerospace's One-Stop-Shop concept and consistent growth strategy.

Over the past five years, Montana Aerospace has invested more than EUR 700 million in new production facilities, technologies, and expertise. Following a successful IPO on the SIX Swiss Exchange in 2021 and a successful transformation phase, Montana Aerospace looks back on a remarkable corporate development in the Aerostructures segment: the company now holds contracted sales of over EUR 7 billion. At the same time, its engagement in the space and defence sectors continues to grow steadily, underlining its ambition to set global standards as a fully integrated technology partner for OEMs and Tier 1s.

Strong growth with a sharpened strategy
Since the IPO in 2021, revenues in the Aerostructures segment have nearly tripled from EUR 285 million to EUR 817 million in 2024 (+187%). EBITDA rose in the same period from EUR 35 million to EUR 127 million (+263%), reflected also in an improved EBITDA margin increasing from 12% to currently 16%.

For 2025, Montana Aerospace Aerostructures segment is targeting sales of more than EUR 850 million, with a clear ambition to exceed sales expectations, while maintaining a strong focus on further improving profitability. This positive outlook is driven by the company's strong performance with major customers such as Airbus and Boeing.

With global air transportation expected to grow by an average of 3.6 percent annually, demand for aircraft will continue to rise, reaching nearly 44,000 units by 2044. Demand for Airbus A320neo and A220 models, as well as the Boeing 737 Max, will remain particularly strong: these aircraft are expected to account for around 34,250 units, representing nearly 80 percent of total projected demand. This forecast is further supplemented by approximately 9,170 widebody aircraft such as the Airbus A350 and A330neo, along with Boeing's 787 Dreamliner and 777X — all platforms for which Montana Aerospace supplies components from its portfolio, ranging from structural parts and assemblies to landing gear components and high-lift devices.

The growth of the aerospace industry, solutions to meet rising production rates, and current trends were also at the center of attention at last week's International Air Show in Paris – the most important meeting point for the global aerospace community. The latest innovations were presented, alongside an in-depth discussion of future developments and technological advancements. One thing became clear: space and defence are gaining increasing importance.

These industry trends are reflected in Montana Aerospace's development: In particular, the growing space segment contributes significantly to the company's profitability. Additionally, the Aerostructures segment benefits the overall upswing in the defense industry. The acquisition of Belgian aerospace supplier Asco in 2022 further strengthened Montana Aerospace's presence and expanded its footprint in Lockheed Martin's F-35 program.

"Our clear strategic focus as the preferred partner to the aerospace industry is paying off," says Kai Arndt, Co-CEO of Montana Aerospace. "As a One-Stop-Shop, we provide exactly what aircraft manufacturers need in times of increasing production rates: maximum flexibility, scalability, and innovative strength. The trust of our customers—and the outlook on OEMs planning to build and deliver up to 44,000 aircraft by 2044—clearly underscores our relevance as a dependable partner in a globally growing industry."

Robust market standing amid industry volatility
Montana Aerospace has strengthened its market position while maintaining the flexibility to industrialize additional production packages. The space business shows particularly stable trends, with new orders and increasing build rates.

Built for the long run – future-proof positioning through strategic investment
"We are growing quickly and profitably, and this is clearly reflected in our financials. Despite the dynamic production plans of OEMs, Montana Aerospace proves the stability and future viability of our business model", adds Michael Pistauer, Co-CEO and CFO of Montana Aerospace, further stating, "This shows that our investments and chosen strategy are delivering full returns."

Montana Aerospace is well positioned for the long term. With a clear growth trajectory, a solidified market position and consistent investment, the company is ready to create sustainable long-term value.
