SAI reports NT$598 million in January 2025 revenue, up 7.86% month-over-month, driven by recovering demand from European and U.S. luxury brands

2025/02/08, Yunlin, Taiwan

Global automotive wheel industry leader SuperAlloy Industrial Co., Ltd. (SAI, 1563 TT) announced January 2025 consolidated revenue of NT$598 million (+7.86%MoM/-13.48%YoY).

According to SAI, the annual decrease was attributed to the seasonal slowdown in the first quarter. However, a strong post-Christmas order recovery helped drive the 7.86% monthly growth.

After installing the five-axis CNC machining equipment for the first time in August 2024, SAI started to independently develop the model based on the customer’s suggestions. With personnel training and continuous investment in development, the trial production was officially completed in January 2025, demonstrating SAI’s further improvement in machining technology. It will continue to optimize through projects and industry-university cooperation, and is expected to upgrade the factory’s machining technology and improve efficiency.

As global ESG initiatives progress, the growth trajectory of new energy vehicles remains strong, driven by market demand and technological advancements rather than subsidies. Market data shows a steady increase in electric vehicle adoption, with hybrid sales in the U.S. continuing to rise. This has pushed new energy vehicles to a record-high 20% share of total auto sales, with luxury brands accounting for nearly 75% of total EV sales. Looking ahead, luxury automakers—including Aston Martin, Ferrari, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, and Dodge—plan to introduce 17 new models in 2025, more than half of which will be hybrid or electric. This shift toward carbon reduction and lightweight materials presents significant growth opportunities for SAI’s forged and recycled aluminum wheels.

Looking ahead, SAI maintains a cautiously optimistic outlook for 2025. Despite ongoing trade policy uncertainties, the company has minimal exposure to restricted regions, ensuring limited direct impact from such policies. SAI continues to implement a steady market expansion strategy by reinforcing its position in new vehicle model development while aggressively promoting its proprietary RESAICAL® net-shape wheels. Additionally, leveraging its expertise in aluminum forging technology, SAI is expanding into the semiconductor and aerospace industries, already collaborating with key clients and aligning with their mass production schedules. The company remains committed to optimizing its cost structure, refining production processes, and enhancing operational efficiency to ensure sustained business growth and long-term profitability in 2025 and beyond.
