Description: SGL SGL Carbon SE December 28, 2025
SGL Carbon SE (XETRA:SGL) manufactures special graphite, carbon-fiber, and composite products across four segments-Graphite Solutions, Process Technology, Carbon Fibers, and Composite Solutions-serving automotive, aerospace, energy-storage, and semiconductor markets worldwide.
In 2023 the company generated roughly €1.3 bn of revenue, with the Carbon Fibers segment posting a ~12 % year-on-year sales increase driven by rising electric-vehicle and aerospace demand; however, its EBIT margin remained modest at about 5 % due to raw-material cost volatility and a high fixed-cost base. Key macro drivers include the global shift toward electrification (EVs, fuel-cell vehicles) and the expanding market for high-performance composites in aerospace, while exposure to cyclical automotive cycles and semiconductor supply-chain constraints adds downside risk.
