Bilbao, 26.02.2026 – CIE Automotive has once again exceeded market expectations, reinforcing its position as one of the most profitable companies in the industry.
Thus, the company recorded revenues of €3,958 million in the past financial year, with an EBITDA – gross operating profit – of €746 million, reaching an 18.9% margin on sales, and an EBIT – net operating profit – of €543 million, representing a 13.7% margin on sales.
These excellent operating results are complemented by a net profit of €336 million, the highest in its history, and operating cash generation of more than €500 million, which places the company’s indebtedness at historic lows, below €900 million.
According to Jesús María Herrera, CEO of CIE Automotive, “We closed the year with the best results in our history, demonstrating that our management is what makes the difference: operational efficiency, financial discipline and value creation. That is why we have been able to fully meet all the objectives and commitments defined in our 2021–2025 Strategic Plan, despite executing it during a very complex period and in a highly challenging environment marked by volume shortages, rising interest rates, inflation and foreign exchange pressure, among other factors.”
He continues: “The closing of this Plan does not represent an endpoint, but rather the beginning of a new phase in which we aim to consolidate our position as global benchmarks in the sector. We understand that in the coming years the automotive industry will continue to face a volatile and uncertain environment, and even so, we expect to continue along this path of success, growing year after year in size and results, supported by a robust business model, a sound financial position and, above all, a highly committed organization.”
