German manufacturer HanseYachts AG has closed the first nine months of 2025 with solid results, marked by a clear recovery in demand and production now running at full capacity. Following a period of market uncertainty, the company has confirmed the success of its restructuring plan and the dynamism of its new ranges.

Based in Greifswald, HanseYachts AG recorded consolidated sales of €105 million between January and September 2025, with EBITDA of €4.9 million. Net income reached €19.2 million, a level influenced by the effects of restructuring undertaken after the takeover of the company by Andreas Müller and Hanjo Runde. These results reflect the strength of the group's recovery and the effectiveness of the strategy implemented.

While the European boating market has gone through a period of uncertainty, demand has picked up significantly over the course of the year. The group now has a stable order book and sales activity is growing significantly. After introducing a short-time working scheme from July to October, affecting nearly 20% of its capacity, HanseYachts has resumed full production. Saturday teams have even been added to cope with the influx of orders.

For Hanjo Runde, Managing Director, this recovery illustrates the market's positive response to the manufacturer's development strategy: ‘We are seeing very encouraging momentum across all our brands. Our new models embody our clear direction and innovation. After a short adjustment phase, all our factories are now operating at full capacity again.’

The recent launches of the Fjord 490 Open, the Fjord 490 Sport and the Hanse 590 have contributed significantly to these results. These models, praised for their technical and aesthetic qualities, reinforce the group's position among the industry's most innovative players.

Andreas Müller, representative of Müller-Verwaltung, emphasises that these new models reflect ‘the passion, quality and sense of design that characterise HanseYachts’. He believes that the market's response sends ‘a strong signal for the future of the group’.

Employing around 1,000 people, HanseYachts AG is one of the world's largest manufacturers of series-produced yachts. Its brands – Hanse, Dehler, Moody, Fjord, Sealine and Ryck – cover a wide spectrum of pleasure craft, from offshore sailing yachts to luxury motor yachts, confirming the diversity and strength of a group now focused on sustainable growth.
