Historic Achievement from ASELSAN: First Turkish Company to Exceed $30 Billion Market Value

Historic Achievement from ASELSAN: First Turkish Company to Exceed $30 Billion Market Value

ASELSAN made history on January 13, becoming the first Turkish company in BIST 100 to surpass a market value of $30 billion by the close of the stock market.

Having risen to become Borsa Istanbul's most valuable company last year, reaching a market value of 1 trillion TL, ASELSAN has achieved another significant global success. With its current standing, ASELSAN is among Europe's top 10 most valuable defense industry companies.

Behind this success lies ASELSAN's increasing effectiveness in international markets and its investments in game-changing high-technology products. The company draws global attention with its solutions developed particularly in defense electronics, radar, air defense systems, and electronic warfare.

Making export-oriented growth one of the cornerstones of its future vision, ASELSAN recently signed a $410 million contract with a NATO member country, further increasing its weight in the global defense market.

Parallel to the upward trend in global markets led by European and US-based technology companies, ASELSAN has also become a focus for investors with its advanced technology solutions. The company also stands out as one of the strongest representatives of Turkey's technological transformation.

Strong Financial Performance

ASELSAN's growth is supported by a sustainable financial management approach. Increasing revenue, an expanding balance sheet, and strong operational results strengthen the company's financial structure. ASELSAN consistently increases its R&D investments each year, reaping the rewards of these investments through new domestic and international contracts.

Since the beginning of 2023, ASELSAN has increased its outstanding orders by 120% to $17.9 billion, successfully distinguishing itself positively from industry giants by achieving approximately three times the global defense industry average growth of 42%.

The company has also gained strong momentum in exports, signing new export contracts worth $1.45 billion in the first nine months of 2025. This figure represents a 171% increase compared to the same period of the previous year.
