CEO Pierroberto Folgiero stated the results confirm that the company’s growth trajectory is characterized by strong profitability expansion and value creation. Shipbuilding posted record revenues of €3.2bn, with cruise ship building revenues up 14.5pc from the first half of 2025 due to favourable pricing dynamics.

During the first six months, Fincantieri finalized contracts for two new ships each for AIDA Cruises and Viking, signed a contract to build three new ships for Princess Cruises, and subsequently in July signed a contract for a third ship for Four Seasons Yachts.
