Gurit Holding AG
Gurit Holding AG makes materials, core components, and engineering services for lightweight composite structures. Its products help customers build strong, light parts used in wind turbine blades, boats, trucks, rail vehicles, and other industrial applications. The company sells both materials such as resins, balsa, foams, and prepregs, and also designs and supplies tooling and equipment used to manufacture composite parts. Its main customers are manufacturers that need advanced composite parts, especially wind blade makers and builders in marine and transportation markets. Gurit earns money by selling these materials, components, and systems, and by charging for engineering, consulting, and tooling support. In some cases it also works closely with customers on product design and manufacturing methods, which makes it more than just a raw-material supplier. What sets Gurit apart is its role in the composite supply chain. It does not usually build the final wind turbine blade or boat itself; instead, it provides the specialized inputs and know-how that make those products lighter and stronger. That makes Gurit a key technical partner for customers that want to replace heavier traditional materials with engineered composites.

Revenue Drop: Gurit’s first-half 2025 revenue declined by 20.1% to CHF 164.7 million, mainly due to exiting the carbon fiber pultrusion business and delayed orders.
Profitability Holds Up: Despite lower sales, operating profit reached CHF 9.3 million (5.7% margin), slightly above last year’s margin, helped by restructuring and cost controls.
Restructuring Costs: One-off restructuring expenses totaled CHF 40 million, including CHF 64.2 million from goodwill recycling linked to the Fiberline business closure.
Segment Performance: Wind Materials sales fell 22.9% to CHF 105 million; Manufacturing Solutions dropped 24.5% to CHF 15.2 million; Marine and Industrial declined 10.5% to CHF 44.6 million.
Guidance Maintained: Gurit confirmed full-year guidance, expecting about CHF 300 million in sales and an operating profit margin of around 7%.
Cash Flow and Debt: Free cash flow was negative CHF 13.2 million; net debt rose to CHF 79.3 million. H2 cash flow is expected to improve.
Market & Strategy: Management sees mid-single-digit long-term growth in wind and high single-digit in non-wind segments, focusing on high-value contracts and innovation.
