We can now focus even more strongly on realizing the remaining synergies of the HYVA integration. We are working intensively on seizing the identified potential as well as on the further implementation of our AMBITION 2030 strategy to continue growing the enterprise value of JOST through organic growth and value-enhancing acquisitions."
The Cranes business was classified as "assets held for sale" in accordance with IFRS 5 with effect from February 1, 2025. From February 1, 2025, to September 30, 2025, the discontinued Cranes business generated revenues of EUR 54.6 million and adjusted EBITDA of EUR -1.6 million.
