Danfoss Pressemeddelelse
28.februar, 2025
Salget i 2024 udgjorde 9,7 milliarder EUR.
Operationel EBITA var på 1.097 millioner EUR, hvilket svarer til en margin på 11,3%.
Investeringer i innovative løsninger på 488 millioner EUR, svarende til 5,0% af salget.
Salgsvæksten er igen afkoblet fra egne CO₂-udledninger, som er reduceret med 19% i scope 1 og 2.
For 2025 forventes en omsætning i intervallet 9,5-11,0 milliarder EUR og en operationel EBITA-margin på 10,8-12,3%.
I 2024 leverede vi solide operationelle resultater, og de fleste af vores kerneforretninger forblev robuste. Stigende renter og lavere indtægter i landbruget bragte produktionen af nye off-highway maskiner til landbruget og byggesektoren ind i en cyklisk nedgang. Elbilmarkedet blev også påvirket af en tilbagerulning af statslige incitamenter.
Som altid har vi proaktivt styret vores forretning gennem perioden og fastholdt vores langsigtede fokus. Vi fortsatte de signifikante investeringer i konkurrencedygtige og innovative løsninger samt i regionalisering af produktionen, hvilket demonstrerer den fortsatte eksekvering af vores grønne vækststrategi.
For at positionere Danfoss bedst muligt til fremtiden har vi gennemført en stor omstrukturering og opdateret vores forretningsmodel, så vi bedre kan betjene vores kunder, øge vores konkurrenceevne, muliggøre hurtigere beslutningstagning og handle hurtigere og mere effektivt.
NORDBORG, DANMARK – I 2024 var omsætningen på 9.674 millioner EUR. På trods af udfordrende markedsforhold leverede vi en solid operationel EBITA på 1.097 millioner svarende til en margin på 11,3%.
“Jeg er særligt begejstret for, at de stærke resultater i vores Climate Solutions- og Drives-forretninger fortsætter. Vi har styrket vores position i udvalgte højvækstmarkeder som datacentre, kommercielle varmepumper og udvalgte applikationer inden for elektrificering såsom det maritime område. Derudover har vi fastholdt vores høje investeringsniveau for at udvide vores udbud af konkurrencedygtige, innovative og førende teknologier og løsninger,” siger Kim Fausing, koncernchef i Danfoss.
De seneste fem år har vi fordoblet Danfoss’ størrelse med et balanceret salg og stærk lokal tilstedeværelse i Amerika, Europa og Asien. Vi tror på de langsigtede vækstmuligheder for Danfoss og værdien af at levere høj service til vores kunder globalt. Derfor fortsætter vi med at investere yderligere i automatisering af vores fabrikker og i at regionalisere vores forsyningskæde for at blive mere robuste. Dertil færddiggjorde vi i 2024 integrationen af Eaton Hydraulics i Danfoss Power Solutions-segmentet.
Vores nye forretningsmodel skaber større decentralisering, så vi kan komme tættere på vores kunder og gøre det nemmere at handle med os. Vi arbejder på at styrke innovationen og vores entreprenørånd, samtidig med at vi forbedrer vores konkurrenceevne og evnen til at træffe hurtige og effektive beslutninger. I dag består Danfoss af tre segmenter og 16 divisioner, og vi driver virksomheden med en markant forenklet struktur understøttet af mere effektive Shared- og Corporate-funktioner.
I Danfoss er bæredygtighed afgørende for konkurrenceevnen og udgør en integreret del af vores strategi. I 2024 afkoblede vi endnu engang vores organiske salgsvækst fra vores scope 1 og 2 emissioner, som blev reduceret med 19% på vej mod vores ambitiøse mål om en 90% reduktion i 2030. Derudover indgik vi en Power Purchase Agreement om køb af 100% grøn strøm til vores Haiyan-campusser i Kina, hvilket fra 2025 vil reducere CO₂-udledningen med 40.000 ton årligt – svarende til 33% af Danfoss’ emissioner i Kina og 9% globalt.
I 2024 introducerede vi ”Green Ask”-initiativet med strategiske leverandører, der dækker 40% af vores årlige indkøb på 3,5 milliarder EUR. Formålet er at styrke dataindsamlingen vedrørende indkøbte produkter samt identificere nye muligheder for dekarbonisering.
“Jeg er stolt af, hvad Danfoss-teamet har opnået sammen i år. Vores globale teams engagement, tilpasningsevne og vilje til at overkomme udfordringer og skabe resultater viser virkelig den fantastiske talentmasse, der driver vores succes. Jeg vil gerne sige tak til vores kunder og partnere for deres tillid og tætte samarbejde – det er helt afgørende for vores fælles succes fremover. Selvom de globale økonomiske usikkerheder og geopolitiske udfordringer kan skabe volatilitet på markederne, holder vi kursen. Vi er overbeviste om de langsigtede vækstmuligheder for Danfoss,” siger Kim Fausing.
Finansielle forventninger til 2025
Danfoss har fortsat en ambition om at udvide eller fastholde sine markedsandele. Omsætningen forventes at ligge i intervallet 9,5-11,0 milliarder EUR for hele året. Danfoss forventer en operationel EBITA-margin mellem 10,8-12,3% som følge af vores fortsatte investeringer i nye produkter og løsninger.

Danfoss Pressrelease
February 28, 2025
Sales in 2024 amounted to EUR 9.7 billion.
Operational EBITA was EUR 1,097 million corresponding to a margin of 11.3%.
Investments in innovative solutions (R&D) at EUR 488 million, corresponding to 5.0% of sales.
Continued to decouple our own emissions from our sales growth, achieving a 19% reduction in scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions.
Outlook 2025 sales in the range of EUR 9.5-11.0 billion and operational EBITA margin in the range of 10.8-12.3%.
In 2024, we delivered solid operational results and most of our core businesses remained resilient. However, factors such as higher interest rates and lower farm income sent the build of new off-highway machines within agriculture and construction into a cyclical downturn. The electric vehicle market was also impacted by governments scaling back incentives.
We have as always proactively managed our business performance through the cycle and maintained our long-term focus. To set Danfoss up for the future, we have taken decisive actions to evolve our operating model to better serve our customers, improve competitiveness, enable faster decision-making, and become a more responsive organization.
We continued with significant investments in delivering competitive and innovative solutions as well as regionalizing our factory footprint, thereby continuing to execute on our green growth strategy.
NORDBORG, DENMARK – In 2024, sales were EUR 9,674 million. Despite challenging market conditions, we delivered a solid operational EBITA of EUR 1,097 million, equal to a margin of 11.3%.
“I am especially excited to see the continuous strong performance in our Climate Solutions and our Drives businesses. We strengthened our position in selected high-growth markets like data centers, commercial heat pumps, and selected electrification applications such as marine. Moreover, we maintained a high level of investments in innovation to expand our offerings of competitive, innovative, and best-in-class technology and solutions,” says Kim Fausing, President & CEO of Danfoss.
Over the past five years, we doubled the size of Danfoss, achieving balanced sales and a strong local presence across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. We firmly believe in the long-term growth opportunities for Danfoss and in offering great service to our customers all over the world. This is why we continue to invest in factory automation and in regionalizing our supply chain to become more resilient. Additionally, we successfully completed the integration of the Eaton Hydraulics acquisition into the Danfoss Power Solutions segment.
With our new operating model, we have decentralized further to move closer to our customers and become easier to do business with. We focus on strengthening innovation and our entrepreneurial mindset as well as improving our cost competitiveness and responsiveness through increasing speed in decision-making. Today, we operate Danfoss through three segments and 16 divisions. Our businesses now operate within a significantly simplified structure, supported by leaner Shared and Corporate functions.
For Danfoss, sustainability is a key driver of competitiveness and an integrated part of our strategy. We continued to decouple our organic growth from emissions, reducing our scope 1 and 2 emissions by 19% as we work toward our ambitious 90% reduction target by 2030. We also signed a power purchase agreement covering 100% green electricity for our two campuses in Haiyan, China reducing our carbon emissions by 40,000 tons every year as of 2025, which is equivalent to 33% of Danfoss’ emissions in China and 9% globally.
In 2024, we launched the ‘Green Ask’ initiative with strategic suppliers, which covers 40% of our EUR 3.5 billion spend to enhance data on sourced products and identify decarbonization opportunities.
“I am proud of what the Danfoss team has accomplished together this year. Our global team’s engagement, resilience, and determination in overcoming challenges and driving impact exemplify the exceptional talent that is fueling our success. I sincerely thank our customers and partners for their trust and close collaboration, which is fundamental for our common success going forward. While global economic uncertainties and geopolitical instability may cause market fluctuations, we stay the course. We firmly believe in the long-term growth opportunities for Danfoss,” says Kim Fausing.
