The first battery plant in Romania opened in October 2025. STIHL also acquired the Syntegon Technology
GmbH site in Waiblingen, which offers STIHL considerable potential for consolidating locations
distributed throughout the region.
Strong financial structure

funds. Seasonal additional liquidity requirements were fully covered at all times by committed credit
lines.
