Accelleron, a global leader in turbocharging, fuel injection, and digital solutions for the marine and energy industries, surpassed $1 billion in revenue in 2024, marking a successful year.
The company has a branch in Malta, operating out of the Kordin Industrial Estate overlooking the Grand Harbour.
Despite a slowdown in the gas compression market, demand for marine products and emergency power solutions for data centers contributed to strong growth. Revenues reached $1,022.5 million, up 11.8 per cent year-on-year, while net income grew by 63 per cent, amounting to $179.4 million.
Operational EBITA rose 17.4 per cent to $261.9 million, with the margin increasing to 25.6 per cent, driven by strong growth and operational efficiency. Accelleron also reduced non-operational costs, contributing to a significant boost in profitability.
Free cash flow generation totaled $177.7 million, demonstrating robust financial performance, and the company maintained a low net leverage ratio of 0.7.
In the Medium & Low Speed segment, revenues increased by 16.3 per cent to $773.5 million, supported by strong demand in shipping and fuel-saving retrofits.
The acquisition of OMC2 and True North Marine in 2024 enhanced Accelleron’s fuel injection and digital capabilities.
The High-Speed segment saw a slight revenue decline but benefitted from strong demand in turbocharged emergency power generation.
Accelleron will propose a 47 per cent increase in its dividend, reflecting the company’s strong results and healthy balance sheet. The company remains optimistic about 2025, forecasting revenue growth of 4-6 per cent and an EBITA margin of 25-26 per cent.
With continued market momentum in the marine and energy industries, Accelleron aims to expand its presence in new-fuel applications, turbocharger services, and digital offerings, positioning itself for further growth despite geopolitical uncertainties.
