PWO AG Reports Strong First Nine‑Month Results Amid Global Automotive Headwinds
PWO AG, the German specialist in advanced metal components and complex automotive subsystems, announced on 13 November 2025 that it has delivered encouraging financial figures for the first nine months of the year. The company’s CEO, Carlo Lazzarini, emphasized the growing integration of PWO’s products early in customers’ development cycles, allowing the firm to push the boundaries of lightweight construction and contribute to the future of mobility.
Early Customer Involvement Fuels Growth
Lazzarini noted that “our customers are involving us in their development projects at an increasingly early stage, enabling us to jointly realize the full potential of modern lightweight construction solutions…in this way, we are shaping the mobility of the future.” This proactive partnership model has helped PWO secure a higher volume of new business and broaden its customer base, even as the global automotive market faces geopolitical uncertainty and fluctuating demand.
Production and Ramp‑Ups Offset Market Weakness
The company reported that series production and ramp‑ups “largely compensate for current market weakness.” While the broader industry contends with supply‑chain disruptions and shifting consumer preferences, PWO’s diversified product portfolio—ranging from rotor and motor housings to airbag components and seat structures—has maintained demand for its high‑precision metal parts.
Capital Expenditure and Market Positioning
Consistent capital expenditure is cited as a cornerstone of the firm’s strategy to expand its market position. By investing in manufacturing capabilities and technology, PWO aims to sustain its competitive edge in the high‑margin segments of automotive components.

Outlook

The company’s performance over the first nine months indicates resilience and an ability to navigate market volatility while continuing to expand its global footprint.
