Hensoldt Targets €10 Billion in Annual Revenue by 2035 Driven by Defence Demand

Hensoldt's Growth Strategy and Market Outlook

Nov 10 (Reuters) - German defence electronics maker Hensoldt is targeting annual revenue of 10 billion euros ($11.2 billion) by 2035, it said on Tuesday, as higher European defence spending boosts demand for military electronics.

Growth Drivers and Business Focus

The Bavaria-based firm said it expects growth to stem from the air defence business as well as new large-scale programmes in mission aircraft and next-generation platforms.

Revenue and Market Projections

  • Hensoldt expects annual revenue growth of 15-20% a year as early as 2027
  • Hensoldt expects the addressable market for defence electronics to grow by around 10% a year to about 76 billion euros by 2031
  • It also raised its adjusted core earnings margin target by one percentage point to 21% by 2030.
CEO Statement and Industry Implications

"Decisions on many of the programmes that will shape our business in the 2030s will be taken soon. The platforms that will emerge from them will need sensors, software and service for decades," CEO Oliver Dörre said in a statement ($1 = 0.8961 euros)
