Init Innovation Demonstrates Financial Resilience Amid Global Challenges

Despite challenging global conditions, Init Innovation in Traffic Systems SE reported substantial growth in the third quarter of 2025. Revenue surged by 34%, reaching EUR 85.1 million, while EBIT rose by 73%, achieving EUR 8.7 million. The company remains on course to meet its 2025 financial targets, forecasting revenue between EUR 340 million and EUR 370 million, and EBIT from EUR 32 million to EUR 35 million.

Margins saw significant improvement, with gross profit increasing by 48% to EUR 32.8 million, driven by robust project deliveries in North America. The EBIT margin improved to 10.2%. Cash flow also benefited, with operating activities' inflow quadrupling to EUR 33.3 million over nine months.

Challenges included geopolitical and climate-related disruptions; however, ongoing projects and follow-up orders supported a resilient business model. The order backlog stood strong at EUR 341.6 million, although new orders saw a decline due to major projects completed in early 2024.
