Thyssenkrupp to spin off all divisions under new holding structure

Chief executive Miguel Ángel López says the move will sharpen competitiveness under a streamlined ownership model

Overview

  • Thyssenkrupp will reorganize into a holding company overseeing five independent businesses by the end of its 2024/25 fiscal year.
  • The group plans to retain majority stakes in four units while converting its steel arm into a 50/50 joint venture with Daniel Křetínský’s EP Group.
  • Thyssenkrupp Marine Systems is preparing for an initial public offering later this year following an extraordinary shareholder meeting.
  • The company reported a €1.5 billion loss in 2023/24 and points to the successful July 2023 spin-off of Thyssenkrupp Nucera as a model for its restructuring.
