2. Landis+Gyr's H1 2025 Earnings: A Mixed Bag

Landis+Gyr reported a net revenue of $535.9 million for the first half of 2025, reflecting a year-over-year decline. However, the company's adjusted EBITDA margin held strong at 17.5%, despite a temporary 100 basis point impact from tariffs. The earnings per share (EPS) came out at $0.3266, significantly lower than the estimated $1.11. The revenue decline was expected as the company divested its EMEA business, and the focus is now on the Americas, where it is seeing significant growth momentum.

Publication Date: Oct -31

📋 Highlights
  • Order Intake & Book-to-Bill Ratio:: Recorded $595M in order intake, achieving a 1.1 book-to-bill ratio driven by grid edge tech wins in the Americas.
  • Record Order Backlog:: Backlog reached $4B, representing over 3 years of revenue for the continuing business.
  • EMEA Divestment & Share Buyback:: Divested EMEA at 13.4x 2024 adjusted EBITDA, returning $175M to shareholders via buybacks starting immediately.
  • EBITDA Margin Resilience:: Maintained 17.5% adjusted EBITDA margin despite 100 bps temporary tariff impact, with guidance raised to 13–14.5% for H2.
  • Net Debt Position:: Closed H1 with $209.3M net debt and a 1.4x net debt-to-EBITDA leverage ratio, ensuring financial flexibility for growth.

Operational Highlights

The company's order intake was $595 million, resulting in a book-to-bill of 1.1, driven by key grid edge tech wins in the Americas. The order backlog reached a record $4 billion, providing a clear outlook for long-term growth. The company's focus on grid edge intelligence solutions is yielding results, with a strong pipeline and order intake now primarily driven by Revelo and grid edge technology.

Guidance and Outlook

Landis+Gyr expects a strong top-line performance in the second half, driven by the momentum built in the first half. The company has increased its forecast for adjusted EBITDA margin from 13% to 14.5% of revenue. The guidance implies a significant improvement in profitability, driven by the execution of the existing backlog and the company's focus on high-quality business.

Valuation and Return to Shareholders

The company's current valuation metrics are mixed, with a P/E Ratio of -24.62, P/B Ratio of 2.82, and EV/EBITDA of 13.5. The negative P/E Ratio is due to the company's low earnings. The company is returning value to shareholders through a $175 million share buyback program, indicating its confidence in its future prospects. The dividend yield is 1.96%, providing a relatively stable return to shareholders.

Future Prospects and Risks

The company's future prospects are tied to its ability to execute on its existing backlog and deliver grid edge intelligence solutions to utilities across the globe. The risks include execution risks, regulatory changes, and competition from smaller players. However, the company's strong order intake and record backlog provide a solid foundation for growth. As Peter Mainz, CEO, mentioned, "We need to ship and execute from our $4 billion backlog and existing customer base," highlighting the importance of execution in achieving the company's growth targets.
