About MTU Aero Engines AG

MTU Aero Engines AG is a leading aerospace propulsion group listed on Xetra/Frankfurt (DAX/MDAX/SDAX) in Germany. Headquartered in Munich, MTU is widely regarded as Germany’s leading engine manufacturer and a highly specialised supplier of commercial and military aircraft propulsion systems, as well as maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) services. Its business model rests on three main pillars: the design and manufacture of engine modules and components, participation in large international engine programmes through partnerships and joint ventures, and a recurring, cash-generating maintenance franchise. The company has deep roots in the German aerospace ecosystem and has built its position through decades of engineering expertise and close collaboration with global aircraft and engine manufacturers. MTU’s portfolio spans both civil and defence applications, while also giving investors exposure to the next generation of aviation technologies. The group highlights strong capabilities in high-growth engine families, especially the geared turbofan (GTF) family, and in widely used reference platforms such as the CFM56, V2500, LEAP and GEnx through its MRO and support activities. From a competitive standpoint, MTU occupies a valuable niche in a highly capital-intensive and technically demanding industry. It combines advanced engineering know-how, industrial depth and long-duration programme exposure with airlines’ fleet cycles. Its business relationships include major industry names such as Airbus, Pratt & Whitney, GE Aerospace and Lufthansa Technik, depending on the programme. Geographically, MTU is global: it has a strong industrial base in Germany and an international network of maintenance sites and joint ventures across Europe, North America and Asia. Recent developments underline the group’s momentum. MTU reported strong first-quarter 2025 growth in both revenue and earnings, and later signalled a new record revenue level for fiscal 2025. In 2025, the company also expanded its technology efforts around aviation decarbonisation, including hydrogen fuel-cell propulsion and its Flying Fuel Cell concept. At the same time, MTU Maintenance continued to scale its MRO operations, reinforcing the group’s growth profile and improving earnings resilience. For long-term investors, MTU combines industrial quality, technological optionality and structural exposure to global aircraft fleet growth and aftermarket demand.
