Mikron Holding AG / Key word(s): Annual Results Ad hoc announcement pursuant to Art. 53 LR: Mikron Group’s preliminary closing figures for 2024 Boudry, January 24, 2025, 7.00 a.m. – Mikron (SIX: MIKN) today reports preliminary and unaudited net sales of CHF 374.1 million for 2024, an increase of 1.0% compared with the prior year. Both business segments showed modest growth which demonstrates the Group’s resilience in a difficult market environment, particularly in Europe. With a healthy order backlog, Mikron is well positioned at the start of 2025.

Automation contributed CHF 265.0 million, a decrease of 4.0%. Solid results in Europe and Asia were offset with a decline in America. Machining Solutions ended the year with an order intake of CHF 123.7 million, a decrease of 9.1% which is a result of a general weakening of the market in Europe while America was growing.
Mikron enters 2025 with a healthy order backlog of CHF 324.1 million. This is an increase of 6.5% compared with the prior year.
Net sales Mikron’s net sales were CHF 374.1 million, an increase of 1.0% compared with the prior year. Automation contributed CHF 233.3 million, an increase of 0.9% with a strong growth in Europe offset by a decline in America.
