Key Figures 2022
In a challenging market environment, aerospace company RUAG International achieved earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of CHF 178 million in 2022 – thanks to three successfully divested business areas....
The Space business, rebranded as Beyond Gravity since March 2022, secured important orders in connection with the Amazon-Kuiper satellite constellation and further expanded its business. The aerostructures business stabilised and once again recorded more orders from the main customer Airbus. In 2023 Beyond Gravity will focus on implementing the restructuring, optimisation and investment projects already launched. Further investments are also planned to handle the expected volume growth.
