FACC Reports Revenue and Earnings Growth in First Half, Plans EUR 120 Million Investment

FACC AG, a company in the aerospace sector, reported significant growth in the first half of 2026. Revenue increased by 8.6% year-on-year to EUR 526.3 million, while operating profit (EBIT) improved by 38% to EUR 25.3 million. The company's EBIT margin rose to 4.8% from 3.8% in the same period last year. FACC confirmed its full-year 2026 revenue outlook, expecting to exceed EUR 1 billion.

The positive financial results are attributed to sustained high global demand for new commercial aircraft. As a development partner and supplier to major aircraft manufacturers, FACC benefits directly from the industry's robust order backlog, which ensures high production levels for years to come. The company highlighted its CORE efficiency program as a key factor in improving its cost structure and productivity.

To support increased production rates and new projects, FACC decided to invest EUR 120 million in constructing a new high-tech plant at its St. Martin site in Upper Austria. Additionally, EUR 6 million was invested in automation and digitalization technologies to enhance production efficiency and quality. These investments aim to strengthen the company's financial foundation for further growth, supported by a significant reduction in net debt.

For the full year 2026, FACC now projects revenue growth between 10% and 15%, aiming for over EUR 1 billion in revenue for the first time. Profitability is also expected to improve, with a full-year EBIT margin forecast between 5.25% and 6.25%. The company anticipates continued strong demand in the aviation industry over the next two decades.
