During his speech, CEO Andreas Weishaar candidly outlined the company’s business performance in 2025 and the current challenges. He emphasized TAKKT’s stable financial foundation and the progress made in implementing the TAKKT Forward strategy. “2025 was not an easy year for TAKKT. At the same time, we addressed the right issues and created the conditions to structurally improve our business and put it back on a growth trajectory,” said Weishaar.
The focus of his remarks was on the further development of the organization and market development, as well as the implementation of measures to increase efficiency and improve cost structures.
