During the first quarter of 2025, some markets of Bucher Industries stabilised as expected. Order intake was higher than in the prior-year period. Order intake was higher at Kuhn Group in particular, as well as at Bucher Hydraulics. However, due to the low order book at the beginning of the year, sales still fell compared to the prior-year period. Bucher Industries confirms its outlook for 2025 but points to the increasing uncertainties surrounding global trade tariffs. The previously announced share buyback programme will start on 5 May 2025.
