Executive Board announces digital initiative at Annual General Meeting
Following the successful 2025 fiscal year, Vossloh AG is increasing the dividend to €1.15 per share (previous year: €1.10). At the Annual General Meeting in Düsseldorf on Wednesday, the Executive Board presented the company’s financial results and announced a further expansion of its digital business.
With record figures in revenue and orders, 2025 was an exceptionally successful year for Vossloh. Sales revenue rose to €1.34 billion, and earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) to €111.9 million. In the 2025 fiscal year, Vossloh recorded order intake of €1.4 billion. The order backlog exceeded the €1 billion mark for the first time at year-end and reached a new all-time high of €1.1 billion at the end of the first quarter of 2026.
Vossloh is “the first choice internationally for rail network operators,” said CEO Oliver Schuster at the Annual General Meeting. In recent years, Vossloh has consistently set the course for digitalization. “2026 will be a pivotal year for our company on this path.” Schuster referred to the €250 million hybrid bond that Vossloh issued at the beginning of the year. The funds are to be used primarily for acquisitions that strengthen the company’s digital expertise.
“The market environment remains very favorable, and the order pipeline is more than well filled,” said CFO Thomas Triska. Vossloh intends to further expand its position as a leading provider of rail infrastructure systems and solutions. “In doing so, we are focusing on sustainable organic growth, complemented by targeted acquisitions whenever they make strategic sense.”
At the Annual General Meeting held in the Stadthalle in Düsseldorf, 72,28 percent of the share capital was represented. The shareholders approved all agenda items proposed with a clear majority and granted discharge to both the Executive Board and the Supervisory Board. BDO AG Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft was appointed as the auditor of the financial statements and the sustainability reporting for the 2026 fiscal year.
