Stabilus to Cut 450 Jobs, Consolidate Sites in Global Overhaul

The overhaul targets a leaner footprint to protect competitiveness under its STAR 2030 plan, with one-off costs cutting this year's result to about €25 million.

Overview

  • Job reductions will be concentrated in EMEA and the Americas as the motion-control supplier streamlines its organization.
  • Office and production footprints in Germany, the United States, Singapore and Thailand will be relocated or merged as part of a site portfolio optimization.
  • The program carries roughly €18 million in one-off costs largely recognized this year, lowering the expected group result to about €25 million versus analysts’ €47.1 million estimate.
  • Management maintains sales guidance around €1.3 billion and projects savings of about €19 million in FY2027 and roughly €32 million annually from FY2028.
  • Shares fell about 3% in early SDax trading after the announcement as CEO Michael Büchsner positioned the steps as central to the company’s long-term strategy.
