DEUTZ Acquires Electrification Developer UMS

On April 6, 2025, DEUTZ Group announced the acquisition of UMS Holding B.V., a Dutch developer specializing in electrification solutions for off-highway vehicles. This strategic purchase marks DEUTZ's entry into a key growth market, potentially unlocking significant opportunities. UMS is noted for its innovations and readiness to industrialize its products. With an order backlog in the high double-digit million-euro range, UMS collaborates with leading OEM customers and engages in promising talks with the construction and defense industries.

DEUTZ anticipates that its New Technology division will greatly benefit from UMS's technology and customer connections. This acquisition is expected to expedite the scaling of UMS's technology. In 2024, UMS generated revenues of approximately €10 million, and the acquisition will be financed through DEUTZ's cash and credit facilities. Completion of the acquisition is expected in the first half of 2025, contingent upon regulatory approvals.
