Rheinmetall, a global defense champion, has seen its order backlog surge past 63 billion Euros. The company's stock price is nearing the psychologically significant 2,000-Euro mark, following a remarkable 320% rally in just one year.
Rheinmetall's impressive performance is underpinned by a 24% revenue growth to 4.735 billion Euros in the first half of 2025. The defense business alone grew by 36%, with weapons and ammunition revenue increasing by 26% to 1.323 billion Euros. The Electronic Solutions segment also witnessed a staggering 231% revenue increase.
