The LAPP Group significantly increased its revenue in fiscal year 2026. According to preliminary calculations, the provider of cable and connection technology generated more than 2.3 billion euros. In the previous year, the figure was 1.93 billion euros. In addition to organic growth, acquisitions and the rise in copper prices also contributed to the increase in revenue.
Asia and the Americas Gain Ground
Growth momentum came in particular from the Asia-Pacific and Americas regions. The EMEA region, which includes Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, remained the region with the highest revenue despite the continued challenging market environment. In Germany and other European markets, the company continues to view the economic conditions as challenging. Although order intake has recently shown a more positive trend, CEO Matthias Lapp explained that this does not yet indicate a sustained improvement.
Growth in Key Industrial Sectors
According to the Group, it also recorded strong growth in the areas of intralogistics, electromobility, and industrial automation. In addition to higher sales volumes, special factors influenced revenue development. These include the significant rise in the price of copper as well as corporate acquisitions.
In early 2026, LAPP fully acquired its former joint venture in Southeast Asia. As a result, the Group now has its own locations in countries such as Thailand, Indonesia, and Vietnam. This move strengthens its direct presence in markets that are becoming increasingly important for the Group’s further international business development.
Focus on Profitability in Fiscal Year 2027
For fiscal year 2027, which began on October 1, 2026, the family-owned company is placing greater emphasis on profitability. In recent years, LAPP has invested in production capacity, logistics networks, and digitalization. These resources are now to be utilized more effectively to ensure that growth is economically sustainable.
Geopolitical uncertainties and the difficult situation in certain markets remain risks. At the same time, the company sees opportunities to further expand its international position. The key factor will be the extent to which the investments made can be translated into higher capacity utilization and sustainably profitable results.
