Hilti Group's 2025 Results Show Regional Growth Amid Revenue Dip
The Hilti Group reported its 2025 financial results, showing mixed performance across global markets. While total revenue dipped slightly, some regions like the Americas and Middle East saw strong growth. The company also expanded its workforce and launched dozens of new products despite economic challenges.
Total revenue for the Hilti Group reached CHF 6.3 billion in 2025, marking a 2.1 percent decline from the previous year. Currency fluctuations contributed to the drop, with a negative impact of CHF 74 million. Net profit also fell by 8.0 percent to CHF 516 million, while operating profit decreased by 5.3 percent to CHF 728 million due to high investment costs.
Regional performance varied significantly. The Americas recorded a 9.3 percent revenue increase in local currencies, driven by strong double-digit growth in the U.S. Meanwhile, the Middle East and Africa grew by 12.9 percent, boosted by rising construction activity in the Middle East. In contrast, Europe saw a 1.9 percent decline, and Asia-Pacific dropped by 2.1 percent, largely because of weak demand in North Asia. The company's software division performed well, with recurring annual revenue jumping by 28.0 percent. Its customer base now exceeds 25,000. Innovation remained a priority, as Hilti launched over 70 new products and services in 2025. Research and development spending totalled CHF 459 million. By the end of 2025, the group employed 34,420 people, a slight increase of 67 employees (+0.2 percent) from the previous year. Its global production network, spanning Europe, Asia, and North America, continued to support manufacturing and logistics operations.
Despite a decline in overall revenue and profit, the Hilti Group maintained growth in key markets and expanded its software business. The company's focus on innovation and workforce stability suggests a strategic push to navigate economic challenges. Global production sites remain central to its supply chain, ensuring continued operations across major regions.
