PVA TePla AG, a leading supplier of high-tech equipment and processes, reinforced its medium-term growth objectives during its Capital Markets Day 2025 in London. The company confirmed its target of reaching approximately €500 million in revenue by the end of 2028, accompanied by significantly improved profitability metrics. CEO Jalin Ketter emphasized that strategic investments in technology and infrastructure are crucial for maintaining competitiveness in challenging market conditions.
The company outlined ambitious margin targets, aiming for an EBITDA margin of 20-25% and a gross margin of 38-43% in the medium to long term. This represents a substantial increase from the first half of 2025 performance, where PVA TePla generated revenue of €119.6 million with a gross margin of 33.3% and order intake of €103.6 million. The improved margin targets reflect the company's confidence in its strategic direction and operational efficiency improvements.
A significant structural change announced involves the company's financial reporting methodology. Beginning in fiscal year 2026, PVA TePla will transition from industry-based reporting (Semiconductor Systems and Industrial Systems) to product area reporting, focusing on Metrology and Material Solutions divisions. CFO Markus GroB stated that this shift provides additional transparency and aligns with the company's evolving business model. The Metrology division, particularly acoustic measurement systems for semiconductors, has been identified as a key growth driver.
PVA TePla is actively expanding its global footprint through investments in production, sales, and service infrastructure across Germany, Italy, France, Asia, and North America. The company's broad technology portfolio addresses multiple high-growth markets beyond semiconductors, including renewable energies, aerospace, defense, and other high-tech sectors. This diversification strategy reduces dependence on individual industries and mitigates cyclical market fluctuations.
The expansion of the integrated R&D center, known as the Technology Hub, accelerates the transfer of research results into industrial applications and shortens time to market for new solutions. This innovation center focuses on market-oriented research and development of future materials, supporting the company's positioning within global megatrends of digitalization, decarbonization, and mobility. The strategic measures presented at the Capital Markets Day demonstrate PVA TePla's commitment to sustainable, profitable growth while maintaining technological leadership in its core markets.
