Emanuel Boeminghaus wrote that at Deutz in Cologne, according to Handelsblatt, up to 400 jobs could be lost within two years. Around 100 positions have already been cut or are in the process of being cut; up to 300 more could follow. As a reason for the pressure on the traditional engine business, Boeminghaus referred to the Engines division: it achieved a revenue of 642 million euros and an adjusted operating margin of 3.8 percent in the first half of 2026. The overall group reached a margin of 7.1 percent. According to him, particularly smaller diesel engines are suffering from weak demand. Despite growth in new areas, Deutz therefore needs to realign its traditional business, he wrote. https://t.co/4vkgrobHXd #Deutz #Köln #Arbeitsplätze (translated)
