About Saf-Holland SE

SAF-HOLLAND SE is a German industrial supplier focused on chassis-related systems and components for commercial vehicles. Listed on Xetra/Frankfurt (DAX/MDAX/SDAX), in Germany, the company is headquartered in Bessenbach, Bavaria, and serves trailer, semi-trailer, truck and bus manufacturers, as well as fleet operators and service networks. It is widely regarded as one of the leading global specialists in its niche, with sales reach across six continents and a well-established position in technically demanding vehicle-component categories. The group’s business is built around several core product lines. SAF-HOLLAND designs and manufactures axle and suspension systems, fifth wheels, kingpins, coupling systems and landing gear. These products are sold under a multi-brand portfolio that includes SAF, Holland, Haldex, Assali Stefen, Neway, Tecma, KLL, V.ORLANDI and York. In addition to original equipment sales to OEMs, the company has a meaningful aftermarket business supplying spare parts through a global distribution network. This aftermarket exposure is strategically important because it tends to be less cyclical than OEM demand and supports earnings resilience when truck and trailer markets soften. Founded in 1881, SAF-HOLLAND has a long industrial heritage and decades of experience in mission-critical components for heavy commercial vehicles. Over time, it has expanded into an international platform and says it ranks among the top three suppliers worldwide in all of its product categories. Its competitive edge is based on product engineering, reliability, lightweight design, safety performance and efficiency gains for customers. These features matter in an industry where vehicle uptime, payload optimization and operating-cost control are key purchasing criteria. Geographically, SAF-HOLLAND has a broad manufacturing and commercial footprint, with strong positions in Europe and North America, plus production capacity in India and other markets. Recent company updates point to a business model that is proving resilient despite macro and trade-policy uncertainty. In 2025, management confirmed a revenue outlook of EUR 1.85 billion to EUR 2.0 billion and an adjusted EBIT margin target of 9% to 10%. The company later reported FY2025 sales of EUR 1.734 billion, an adjusted EBIT margin of 9.5%, and continued solid operating cash flow. It also announced a share buyback program of up to EUR 40 million and proposed a dividend of EUR 0.65 per share, which underscores disciplined capital allocation and confidence in cash generation.
