In 2024-2025, TKH accelerated its strategic transition to become a leading automation company by focusing on automation and electrification activities, which combined constitute about 60% of its turnover. The company completed a €200 million strategic investment program, divesting two large non-core Smart Manufacturing entities with €56 million turnover and acquiring three smaller companies to bolster state-of-the-art automation technologies, reflecting a shift to asset-light automation growth. TKH has begun a legal restructuring process aimed at separating its Electrification segment to maximize shareholder value and support focused growth in automation. The company reported organic turnover growth in 2024 across all segments, with a strong Q4 driven by the Smart Vision and Smart Manufacturing systems. TKH's medium-term strategy through 2028 emphasizes profitability, cash flow discipline, targeted bolt-on acquisitions, and capital allocation prioritizing automation and electrification innovations supported by proprietary technologies, software, and AI. TKH employs over 6,000 staff worldwide and operates market-leading technologies in connectivity, manufacturing automation, and vision systems.
