Cash Cows
Materials Services North America with 14 billion dollars in annual revenue
Materials Services North America, with $14.0 billion in 2025 revenue, is ThyssenKrupp's cash cow-its vast distribution network generates steady operating cash flow (approx. $1.1-1.4B EBITDA in 2025) that keeps corporate liquidity stable.
The business sits in a mature North American industrial metals market where ThyssenKrupp holds leading share and needs minimal incremental CAPEX, preserving free cash flow.
We allocate these healthy margins-about a 7-10% EBITDA margin-to fund capital-intensive green steel transitions and R&D elsewhere in the group.
Automotive Technology Steering Systems in 1 out of 4 global vehicles
ThyssenKrupp's steering systems equip ~25% of global vehicles, sustaining a market-leading share and €1.1bn EBITDA in FY2025, despite car-market swings.
The segment is mature; manufacturing efficiencies pushed EBIT margin to ~18% in 2025, producing strong free cash flow of ~€650m.
It generates surplus cash used to service group net debt (ThyssenKrupp net financial debt €4.2bn at FY2025) and fund ongoing restructuring and liquidity needs.
Forged Technologies Crankshaft Production with 30 percent global share
Forged Technologies Crankshaft Production holds ~30% global share and generated €1.2bn revenue in FY2025, anchoring ThyssenKrupp's cash cow-dominant in a mature, high-margin forged-components market with ~8% operating margin in 2025.
EV transition pressures exist, but ~1.1bn ICE vehicles on road in 2025 keep steady demand, so ThyssenKrupp limits capex to maintenance (<€50m in 2025) and harvests free cash flow.
Springs and Stabilizers for premium European automotive brands
Springs and stabilizers for premium European automotive brands are a textbook cash cow for ThyssenKrupp, with an estimated market share ~35% in Europe and annual segment EBITDA margin ~18% in FY2025, driven by mature tech and fully depreciated lines yielding strong cash conversion.
