Opportunity engine; INITIATE with BUY Steyr Motors is a rare
pure-play in defence-grade diesel propulsion, combining a
patented monoblock engine architecture with a
small-series production model that delivers
unmatched power-to-weight ratios and extreme reliability. This engineering edge enables Steyr to build
tailor-made engines for military vehicles, boats and APUs where weight, size and resilience are
mission-critical and alternatives simply do not fit. The result is a
business embedded as single-source supplier on frontline platforms such as Leopard 2, Hawkei and GRF, backed by
blue-chip OEMs like Thales, KNDS, Rheinmetall and Urovesa. With
decades-long platform lives and
limited competition, Steyr converts technical superiority into
pricing power,
customer lock-in and unusually high earnings visibility for a niche industrial. Steyr Motorsenters a
structurally re-arming Europe with a growth pipeline far larger than its current scale suggests, supported by c.
€ 300m of backlog into 2030e. Defence budgets are rising, equipment shares are expanding, and decades of underinvestment in ground forces are driving a sustained procurement cycle in exactly the subsystems where Steyr is embedded. Main battle tank
APUs represent the strongest growth vector, with Leopard 2 A8, KF51 Panther and potentially the K2, offering multi-year, high-probability demand. In parallel, internationalisation across Asia and the US, combined with the new mobile power unit, broadens Steyr’s TAM and supports growth beyond its current core programmes. Altogether,
sales are expected to grow at a 37% CAGR between 2024-28e. At the same time, the
EBIT margin looks set to reach 21% by 2028e (eNuW), vs. 2025 guidance of 13-16%, thanks to improving personnel utilization, as only c. 22% of Steyr Motors employees work in production. Importantly, the setup has spare capacity, as Steyr Motors is currently only operating a four day week with one shift model.
Positive news ahead: Steyr Motors’ newly launched mobile power
generator is on track for first commercial orders in H1 ‘26e (eNuW), adding a new leg of structural demand. Parallel
internationalisation continues to gain traction, with further progress expected in China, India and the US. In addition, several large-scale defence programmes entering procurement in 2026 carry cumulative
revenue potential well above € 100m for Steyr Motors, underpinning a pipeline that should act as a meaningful catalyst for the shares.
INITIATE Steyr Motors with
BUY, PT € 59, based on DCF. You can download the research here:
