II. FOURTH QUARTER REVENUES WERE UP +11% ORGANIC
2025 Q4 revenues were €11,095 million, up +10.7% organic and up +4.0% on a reported basis.
Q4 2025 PERFORMANCE BY BUSINESS MODEL
Products (47% of FY25 revenues) grew +4% organic in Q4. Growth was balanced between volume and price, with pricing led by North America in response to tariffs and supported by Rest of the World in response to inflation, partly offset by deflation in China. Product revenues grew mid-single digit in Energy Management, contrasted between strong growth in electrical power distribution across multiple end-markets and continued weakness in the Residential buildings market in North America and China. Product revenues in Industrial Automation were also up mid-single digit with growth in many product categories and across many geographies, as the steady recovery of recent quarters continued to broaden in Q4.
Systems (34% of FY25 revenues) grew +19% organic in Q4. Energy Management saw strong double-digit growth with contributions across end-markets, most notably in Data Center, where sales of the Group’s prefabricated offer were particularly strong, alongside other elements of the full solution offered by the Group. Industrial Automation systems sales grew double-digit. Discrete automation markets saw strong growth in motion and PLC for packaging OEMs; there was also strong growth in medium voltage drives for customers in the Infrastructure and Industry end-markets. Process & Hybrid automation markets were around flat due to demand weakness earlier in the year, which has improved but is not yet reflected in sales growth.
Software & Services (19% of FY25 revenues) grew +10% organic in Q4, of which Software & Digital Services (8% of FY25 revenues) grew +13% organic and Field Services (11% of FY25 revenues) grew +8% organic
- Agnostic Software (comprising AVEVA, ETAP and RIB Software)
- AVEVA delivered good growth in Annualized Recurring Revenue (ARR), up +12% as of December 31, 2025. ARR growth was driven by upsell to existing customers, while net new logos contributed positively, with churn remaining low. Strong organic growth was led by SaaS and on-premise rental, while the perpetual license share continued to decline as expected. Segments contributing to growth included Food & Beverage, Energy & Chemicals, Transportation, Power & Grid and through distribution channels.
- Energy Management agnostic software offers (ETAP and RIB Software) delivered mid-single digit organic sales growth. The Group’s eCAD offer (ETAP) led the organic growth performance with strong uptake for multi-year on-premise rental contracts, while perpetual license revenues declined, as expected. The Group’s software offer for the construction market (RIB Software) also grew, seeing strong growth in on-premise rental, while SaaS growth was impacted by timing of renewals, despite the continued transition from perpetual license to subscription.
- Services (comprising Digital and Field Services offers) grew double-digit organic in Q4
- Field Services grew +8% organic in Q4, with high-single digit growth in Energy Management and low single digit growth in Industrial Automation. In Energy Management, growth was across end-markets notably from Data Center, capturing demand across the lifecycle, from commissioning to modernization and maintenance.
- Digital Services delivered double-digit organic growth in Q4, where there was double-digit growth in EcoStruxure Advisors, digital offers for Grid customers and Cybersecurity solutions, which more than offset softness in sustainability.
Q4 2025 PERFORMANCE BY END-MARKET
Schneider Electric sells its integrated portfolio into four end-markets: Data Center & Networks, Buildings, Industry and Infrastructure, leveraging the unique combination of Energy Management and Industrial Automation complementary offers and technologies supported by the focus on electrification, automation and digitalization to enable a sustainable future.
- Data Center & Networks – Demand in the pure Data Center segment accelerated sharply, with triple-digit growth year-over-year in Q4. This was particularly apparent with hyperscale and colocation customers who strongly accelerated investments in the quarter, and demand was also strong with other customer groups. Demand was strongest in North America with a strong pickup in demand in other geographies as well, including France, the Nordics and parts of the Asia Pacific region. The Group provides customers in the Data Center end-market with a broad offer and saw a strong uptake for the Group’s electrical panels, UPS, racks, prefabricated solutions and liquid cooling. Sales growth in pure Data Center remained at a strong double-digit level, year-over-year in Q4. In the Distributed-IT segment, demand in the quarter was good, while sales declined slightly, primarily due to weaker performance in the B2C segment in North America.
- Buildings – Demand in the Buildings end-market was around flat during the quarter, although sales growth remained good. In the Non-residential buildings market, demand was solid, particularly in technical buildings such as public access buildings, healthcare and hotels, where modernization of building management and power management technologies continues to drive growth. Sales into Non-residential buildings remained strong. Residential building demand declined during the quarter, though varied by country with some signs of stabilization in North America, while the market in China remained weak. Sales into Residential buildings were around flat.
- Industry – In Q4, the Industry end-market saw strong demand overall, including for offers of both businesses. In Discrete automation, the market recovery continued, with strong demand against a low base of comparison, led by machinery manufacturers, including strong automation demand in U.S., India and parts of Western Europe. Other industrial manufacturing also saw strong demand. There was good sales growth into Discrete automation markets in the quarter. In Process & Hybrid industries, demand was strong, where in particular, the Energies & Chemicals (E&C) and Semiconductor segments saw strong traction, despite continued macroeconomic uncertainty. Sales growth into Process & Hybrid markets was relatively weaker than Discrete due to demand weakness earlier in the year.
- Infrastructure – The Infrastructure end-market saw strong and accelerating demand in the quarter. There was strong demand in the Power & Grid (P&G) segment, across many geographies underpinned by electrification momentum, aging infrastructure, and rising grid expansion requirements driven by energy decentralization. There was solid sales growth in the P&G segment in the quarter. There was strong demand in Water & Wastewater (WWW) including several notable projects in the U.S., Europe and Middle East & Africa, while sales declined against a high base of comparison.
Q4 2025 PERFORMANCE BY BUSINESS AND GEOGRAPHY
The breakdown of revenue by business and geography was as follows:
North America (39% of FY 2025 revenues) grew +17.8% organic in Q4.
Energy Management grew +19.4% organic. The U.S. grew strong double-digit despite a high base of comparison. Recent capacity investment supported enhanced volumes, while price realization improved in the quarter. The Data Center end-market led growth, where the Group has strong traction due to its comprehensive portfolio, while the Industry and Infrastructure end-markets also contributed. Services saw high single-digit growth supported by increased attach rates in Data Center and modernization projects in other end-markets. Weakness in Residential and Distributed IT segments was compensated by good traction for new channel partner programs across other segments. Canada was down mid-single digit against a strong double-digit base of comparison due to Data Center projects executed in Q4’24, and with continued weakness in Residential buildings, partly offset by growth in the Industry and Infrastructure end-markets. Mexico was down sharply, in part due to the uncertain macroeconomic environment while also facing a high base of comparison.
Industrial Automation grew +4.9% organic. The U.S. grew high-single digit overall, aided by prior investments in commercial set-up. Discrete automation grew double-digit against a low base of comparison with good traction in both channel and end-user business in Industry and Infrastructure and with strong growth in services. Process & Hybrid sales were stable, impacted by prior order weakness, while AVEVA grew slightly. Canada grew double-digit despite a high base of comparison, benefitting from selling combined solutions of Energy Management and Industrial Automation to customers in the E&C and Non-residential buildings segments. Mexico was down due to continued macroeconomic uncertainty.
Western Europe (23% of FY 2025 revenues) grew +6.0% organic in Q4.
Energy Management grew +5.4% organic. Growth was led by Data Center with good contributions from other segments and end-markets, including Residential buildings which saw solid growth.

Italy and Germany delivered mid-single digit growth supported by project execution across end-markets, notably from Non-residential buildings. The U.K. grew low-single digit, while Spain declined against a high base of comparison. There was high-single digit growth in aggregate across the rest of the region, supported by Data Center project execution in the Netherlands and the Nordics which also saw growth in the Industry end-market. Services grew strongly across the region, mainly linked to Data Center, while also seeing good contribution from recent acquisition Planon (2 months contribution to organic growth).
Industrial Automation grew +8.2% organic, with double-digit growth at AVEVA, boosted by a large, multi-year, on-premise subscription renewal in Switzerland, with mid-single digit growth in Discrete automation and Process & Hybrid. Among major economies, growth was led by Germany, with double-digit growth across Process & Hybrid, led by the Consumer Packaged Goods segment, Discrete automation and AVEVA. The U.K. grew double-digit, primarily due to AVEVA. France, Italy and Spain were down due to renewal timing in Software, despite strong growth in Discrete for Italy and in Process & Hybrid for France. The rest of the region delivered low-single digit growth in aggregate, when excluding the large software renewal in Switzerland.
Asia Pacific (26% of FY 2025 revenues) grew +5.8% organic in Q4.
Energy Management grew +5.5% organic. India grew double-digit with strong contribution across end-markets and business models. China grew low-single digit, with strong growth in Data Centers and traction in Semicon, while construction markets remained weak. Australia declined mid-single digit against a double-digit base of comparison and with Residential buildings slightly negative. The rest of the region grew mid-single digit in aggregate with a particularly strong contribution from Indonesia due to execution on a large data center project, supported by strong growth in Residential buildings in Vietnam and Infrastructure projects in Thailand, while Malaysia declined against a high base of comparison.

Australia was up double-digit with strong performance in Discrete automation and at AVEVA. The rest of the region grew high-single digit in aggregate with strong performance in Japan and Korea, both seeing good traction in Process and at AVEVA.
Rest of the World (12% of FY 2025 revenues) grew +10.0% organic in Q4.
Energy Management grew +8.7% organic. Middle East & Africa grew double-digit, led by Saudi Arabia and U.A.E. where strong project execution and services drove growth, notably in E&C, Data Center and P&G segments. Turkey and Egypt also saw strong growth in the quarter, driven by an improvement in the market environment in late 2025. South America was down against a strong double-digit base of comparison due to project execution in Chile in Q4’24, though Argentina grew strongly led by project execution in E&C. Central & Eastern Europe grew mid-single digit with strong growth in products, including in Residential buildings.
Industrial Automation grew +13.6% organic. AVEVA delivered strong double-digit growth, led by the E&C segment.

Central & Eastern Europe was down slightly.
SCOPE3 AND FOREIGN EXCHANGE4 IMPACTS IN Q4
In Q4, net acquisitions/disposals had an impact of +€64 million or +0.6% of Group revenues, mainly relating to the acquisition of Motivair, coupled with 1 month scope impact from Planon and the impact of some smaller disposals.
Based on transactions completed to-date, the Scope impact on FY 2026 revenues is estimated to be around flat. The Scope impact on adjusted EBITA margin for FY 2026 is estimated to be around flat.
In Q4, the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations was negative at -€701 million or -6.6% of Group revenues, mostly driven by the weakening of the U.S. Dollar, Indian Rupee and Chinese Yuan against the Euro.
Based on current rates5 , the FX impact on FY 2026 revenues is estimated to be between -€850 million to -€950 million. The FX impact at current rates on adjusted EBITA margin for FY 2026 could be around -10bps.
3. Changes in scope of consolidation also include some minor reclassifications of offers among different businesses.
4. For those currencies meeting the criteria to be considered hyperinflationary under IAS 29, such as Argentina and Türkiye, an IFRS technical adjustment for hyperinflation impact is reflected as FX and therefore excluded from the organic growth calculation. The effect of operational actions taken in these countries such as increased pricing to mitigate the inflationary impact is reflected as part of the organic growth.
5. Forward exchange rates are volatile and difficult to predict. Consequently, the impact of such movement and possible impacts from hyperinflation technical accounting (IAS29) are not factored at this stage.
DIGITAL UPDATE
In 2025, the Digital Flywheel represented 62% of Group revenues (vs. 57% in 2024), showing strong progress towards a target of >70% by 2030, growing at +15% in 2025. All four elements of the Digital Flywheel made a strong contribution to the growth, led by Connectable Products as the Group continues to generate value for customers through the digitalization of its product offering, as a foundation for Advancing Energy Tech. Overall, Software & Services represented 19% of Group revenues in 2025, with an ambition for this representation to reach c.25% by 2030. Digital Services grew strongly, while the Group’s agnostic software offers also made a strong contribution despite their ongoing transition to a subscription model. Recurring revenues within agnostic software increased to 79% (vs. 77% in 2024), led by AVEVA, which achieved close to 85% as outlined in the Group’s 2025 Capital Markets Day. The Group aims to double the weightage of total recurring revenues by 2030.
BACKLOG
The Group closed the year with backlog of €25,362 million (2024: €21,420 million), up +18%. Backlog grew across both businesses, with Energy Management at €21,340 million, up +21%, and Industrial Automation at €4,022 million, up +8%. Backlog grew across all business models, with the most significant increase seen in Systems in North America due to accelerated demand in the Data Center end-market. There was strong growth in backlog to be executed in 2027 and beyond, linked with Data Center, while backlog to be executed in 2026 also grew. This record level of backlog gives the Group unprecedented visibility moving into the next cycle.
III. FULL YEAR 2025 KEY RESULTS
6. See appendix Adjusted Net Income & Adjusted EPS.
ADJUSTED EBITA MARGIN AT 18.7%, UP +50BPS ORGANIC, IMPACTED BY LOWER GROSS MARGIN OFFSET BY A REDUCTION IN SFC / SALES RATIO
Gross profit was up +7.6% organic with Gross margin down -40bps organic, to be at 42.1% in FY25. The Group delivered strong levels of industrial productivity and saw an acceleration in product pricing in Q4, however this was insufficient to fully offset the Gross margin headwinds from Mix, reflective of continued strong growth in Systems, and raw material cost inflation inclusive of tariffs.
Adjusted EBITA reached €7,520 million, increasing organically by +12.3% and the Adjusted EBITA margin improved by +50bps organic to 18.7% as a consequence of good control over the Group’s discretionary costs despite the negative Gross Margin evolution. SFC costs decreased as a percentage of revenues by +80bps to 23.3%, with a positive organic evolution of +90bps partly offset by FX headwinds.
The key drivers contributing to the earnings change were the following:
7. Price on products and raw material impact
8. For those currencies meeting the criteria to be considered hyperinflationary under IAS 29, such as Argentina and Türkiye, an IFRS technical adjustment for hyperinflation impact is reflected as FX and therefore excluded from the organic growth calculation. The effect of operational actions taken in these countries such as increased pricing to mitigate the inflationary impact is reflected as part of the organic growth
The FY 2025 adjusted EBITA for each business was as follows:
- Energy Management generated an adjusted EBITA of €7,235 million, or 21.8% of revenues, around flat organically (down -30bps reported), where a decline in Gross Margin was driven by negative mix and raw material inflation more than offsetting strong industrial productivity. This was mitigated by an improvement in SFC/Sales ratio, with improved leverage on a strong volume contribution, particularly in Systems.
- Industrial Automation generated an adjusted EBITA of €994 million, or 14.2% of revenues, up c.+10bps organic (down -60bps reported), where an improvement in Gross Margin was driven by strong industrial productivity, positive mix from AVEVA and the recovery in Discrete automation more than offsetting the impact of raw material and other cost inflation. The SFC/Sales ratio in Industrial Automation deteriorated due to the lower volume contribution in the first half of the year.
- Central Functions & Digital Costs in 2025 amounted to €709 million (€823 million in 2024), decreasing to 1.8% of Group revenues (from 2.2% of Group revenues last year).
▪ ADJUSTED NET INCOME UP +14% ORGANIC
9. See appendix Adjusted Net Income & Adjusted EPS.
▪ FREE CASH FLOW OF €4.6 BILLION
The Group delivered Free Cash Flow of €4,635 million in FY25.
Operating cash flow was strong at €6,748 million, up +€440 million vs. FY24 primarily due to the strong growth in EBITDA in FY25. The operating cash flow included R&D cash costs of €2,380 million, which remained stable at 5.9% of 2025 revenue.
Net capital expenditure increased to -€1,496 million (€132 million higher than in FY24) representing around 3.7% of revenues, with 2.5% relating to net tangible capex and 1.2% to intangible capex (mainly capitalized development costs), as the Group continues to invest in its global supply chain and focus on innovation.
Trade working capital buildup impacted the free cash flow in 2025 by -€360 million (compared to -€594 million in FY24). DSO improved by 2 days compared to December 2024 due to strong cash collection, while DPO improved by 1 day. DIN improved by 3 days vs. December 2024 supported by structured actions to reduce closing inventories to an appropriate level as part of the Group’s focus on rigorous working capital management.
Non-trade working capital impacted the free cash flow in 2025 by -€257 million (compared to -€134 million in FY24) with the year-on-year variance primarily due to a fine of -€207 million paid in 2025 in relation to a previously disclosed legal case in France, partly offset by lower bonus accruals.
▪ BALANCE SHEET REMAINS STRONG
Schneider Electric’s net debt at December 31, 2025 amounted to €13,721 million (up from €8,147 million at December 31, 2024) after payment of -€2.3 billion to fulfill the 2024 dividend, a net impact from acquisitions and disposals of -€1.2 billion, transactions with non-controlling interests for -€5.8 billion (of which -€5.5 billion relating to the purchase of the remaining minority interests in SEIPL) and payment of -€0.3 billion in relation to share buyback, offset by the strong Free Cash Flow performance of +€4.6 billion.
The Group remains committed to retaining its A-grade credit ratings.
▪ CASH CONVERSION & PROPOSED DIVIDEND
The cash conversion ratio (Free Cash Flow as a percentage of Net Income Group Share) was 111% in FY25, in part due to the non-cash impairment of investment in associates and payment of the fine in France. The cash conversion ratio was 106% adjusted for these items, up from 94% on an equivalent basis last year, demonstrating the Group’s ability to sustainably drive strong cash conversion, including in periods of higher growth.
Aligned with the capital allocation framework set out in the CMD, the Board of Directors proposes a dividend10 of €4.20 per share, up +8% vs. 2024 as the Group maintains its progressive dividend policy for the 16 th year.
IV. SCHNEIDER SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT
Schneider Electric today published its 2025 extra-financial results, marking the conclusion of its Schneider Sustainability Impact (SSI) 2021–2025 program. Over the past five years, the Group has reported measurable progress across climate, social, and governance dimensions, supporting customers, partners, and communities in their transition toward a more sustainable and inclusive future.
As of the end of Q4 2025, Schneider Sustainability Impact program (SSI) achieved an overall score of 8.86/10, reflecting the scale of the sustainable transformation carried out across the Group and its value chain over the past five years. This chapter demonstrates how Schneider Electric has translated long-term ambition into measurable, global and local results, transforming its business and engaging its ecosystem.
“Schneider Sustainability Impact 2021–2025 has been a transformative journey,” said Olivier Blum, CEO of Schneider Electric. “For more than 20 years, sustainability has been rooted in our identity and driven our journey forward. By combining innovation, partnerships, and accountability, we have delivered progress against key sustainability metrics across our operations and our ecosystem. These results reinforce our belief that sustainability is a powerful driver of both performance and positive impact.”
Schneider Electric has been playing a critical role in helping customers reduce their environmental footprint through its products and solutions. By the end of 2025, the Group enabled customers to save and avoid 862 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions, surpassing its original ambition of 800 Mt CO₂. Moreover, through the Zero Carbon Project, Schneider Electric has successfully mobilized its supply chain to take concrete action toward decarbonization. By engaging its top 1,000 suppliers, the Group contributed to a 56% reduction in suppliers’ operational CO₂ emissions.
Schneider continues to push for fair and safe working conditions across its suppliers’ ecosystem. As of 2025, 98% of strategic suppliers conform to the Group’s Decent Work requirements, reinforcing respect for human rights, ethical labor practices, and employee well-being in its value chain.
Guided by its mission to power progress for all, Schneider Electric has continued to contribute to a fair and inclusive energy transition, enabling its stakeholders to participate in and benefit from sustainable progress. Through the Access to Energy initiative launched in 2009, the Group has expanded access to clean, reliable, and affordable energy for underserved communities, impacting more than 60 million people worldwide by the end of 2025, well beyond its original ambition of 50 million beneficiaries. At the same time, Schneider Electric has invested in youths’ upskilling and education to support long-term inclusion, training over one million people in energy management since 2009, and equipping individuals with the capabilities needed to build resilient communities and support the global energy transition.
Since 2021, more than 500 local sustainability initiatives have come to life in the countries where Schneider Electric operates, illustrating how the Company contributes to generating impact for local communities.
“Closing SSI 2021-2025 is a milestone, not a finish line. What remains is the collective capability we’ve built with our people, customers and suppliers, and the discipline to deliver concrete results and meaningful impact” said Esther Finidori, Chief Sustainability Officer of Schneider Electric. “As we move toward 2030, our compass is clear: we’ll leverage technology and innovation for progress, bring others along, learn and share what works to scale impact while continuously striving to do the right thing. At Schneider Electric, we’re convinced that advancing energy technology can help power progress for all.”
In addition to these achievements, Schneider Electric’s sustainability approach has also been recognized across several top ESG ratings, such as Ecovadis Platinum medal, the placement on CDP’s Climate Change A list, and the ranking 1st in the Social Benchmark and 3rd in the Gender Benchmark in the latest World Benchmarking Alliance (WBA) assessment, among others.

More information on the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP): https://www.cdp.net/en + CDP is a global non-profit that runs the world’s only independent environmental disclosure system for companies, capital markets, cities, states and regions to manage their environmental impacts.
Founded in 2000, CDP was the first organization to leverage investor pressure to influence corporate disclosure on environmental impact. Now with the world’s largest, most comprehensive dataset on environmental action, the insights that CDP holds empower investors, companies, cities, and national and regional governments to make Earth-positive decisions.
As the founder of environmental reporting, we believe in transparency and the power of data to drive change. Partnering with leaders in enterprise, capital, policy and science, we surface the information needed to enable Earth-positive decisions.
We helped more than 22,100 companies and almost 1,000 cities, states and regions disclose their environmental impacts in 2024. Financial institutions with more than a quarter of the world’s institutional assets use CDP data to help inform investment and lending decisions. Aligned with the ISSB’s climate standard, IFRS S2, as its foundational baseline, CDP integrates best-practice reporting standards and frameworks in one place. Our team is truly global, united by our shared desire to build a world where people, planet and profit are truly balanced
Disclosers are evaluated across four scoring levels, representing stages of environmental maturity:
- Disclosure (D/D–): Measures the completeness of a company’s reporting. The number of points allocated to each question depends on both the amount of data requested and their relative importance to data users.
- Awareness (C/C–): Reflects the understanding of how environmental issues relate to the company’s activities and impacts. This level indicates awareness but not yet action.
- Management (B/B–): Recognizes evidence of action and processes to manage environmental issues, showing that the company is moving from understanding to implementation.
- Leadership (A/A–): Represents best practice performance, where the Discloser demonstrates environmental leadership through ambitious strategies, verified progress, and sector-leading action.
