Ducati ends 2024 with a revenue of over one billion euros combined with a benchmark profitability

For the third consecutive year, the revenue of the Borgo Panigale motorcycle manufacturer exceeds one billion euros. At the end of 2024, Ducati’s operating result is 91 million euros, corresponding to a profitability of 9.1%.

Claudio Domenicali, CEO of Ducati: “The 2024 results confirm the strength of our brand and the company’s ability to generate the financial resources that allow us to continue to invest and consolidate the excellence, value and exclusivity of our products.”

Ducati CEO Claudio Domenicali.

Borgo Panigale, Bologna (Italy) March 18, 2025 – Ducati ended 2024 with financial results that testify to the solidity of its competitive positioning in the two-wheel sector and the effectiveness of the strategic choices made in recent years, oriented towards the development of a product range that represents the best fusion of beauty, performance and technology.

For the third consecutive year, Ducati recorded revenues of more than one billion euros (2024: 1,003 billion; 2023: 1,065 billion). A result achieved despite the challenges that are characterizing the industry and the current global competitive environment.

The operating result (EBIT) stood at 91 million euros, equal to a profitability of 9.1% (2023: 10.5%). A key figure, which also highlights the company’s ability to focus on generating the financial resources needed to support its strategic plans.

During 2024, 54,495 motorcycles were delivered to Ducatisti all over the world (2023: 58.224). Although showing a decline compared to the previous year, the figure is in line with the philosophy of the Bologna-based company, which aims to preserve the exclusivity and value of its products for its passionate clients.

“2024 ends with a positive balance that, despite a challenging competitive environment, confirms our solidity and a benchmark profitability in the two-wheeler market.” declared Claudio Domenicali, CEO of Ducati. “ We enjoy a solid financial base that allows us to continuously and significantly invest in research and development, innovation and racing competition, while continuing to strengthen the uniqueness and prestige of our product range and ensuring the high standards of quality and service typical of a product of excellence. This, combined with our commitment to making every Ducatista feel part of a great family, makes the brand more beloved than ever today.”

Henning Jens, Ducati CFO, added: ” 2024 was a complicated year due to the particularly challenging market conditions the whole business faced. In this context, we chose to focus on protecting overall profitability, prioritizing long-term sustainability rather than just aiming at increasing sales volumes. This approach, combined with further improvements of our efficiency, is in line with our premium strategy and it allowed us to conclude the year with a profitability that reached 9.1% return on sales and an operating result that shows our ability to generate value and guarantee a solid financial base also under difficult circumstances. “

Ducati CFO Henning Jens.

Looking at 2025, Ducati presented to the public ten new models, further enriching an increasingly complete, sophisticated and technologically advanced product range, designed to offer every Ducatista the most suitable bike to express their passion for two wheels.

These include the new XDiavel V4 and Multistrada V4, equipped with the V4 Granturismo engine, alongside the Panigale V4 and Streetfighter V4, both powered by the latest evolution of the Desmosedici Stradale engine, and the Panigale V2, Streetfighter V2 and Multistrada V2 , equipped with the new V2 engine, the lightest twin-cylinder ever made by Ducati. In addition, the Company makes its entry into the world of Off-Road with the introduction of its first motocross bike, available from June 2025 at selected dealerships.

Josh Herrin Wins Historic Third DAYTONA 200 In A Row to Cap Off 84th Annual Bike Week Presented by GEICO Races

Ken Roczen captures his first DAYTONA Supercross championship while Kyle Wyman, Dallas Daniels, Kody Kopp continued to dominate at Daytona in their respective disciplines

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (March 8, 2025) – The 83rd running of the DAYTONA 200 was one for the books as Josh Herrin won his third DAYTONA 200 in a row to cap off the 84th Annual Bike Week Presented by GEICO races at Daytona International Speedway. Herrin secured his fourth overall DAYTONA 200 victory Saturday afternoon, and made history by becoming the first rider to win three DAYTONA 200s in a row.

Herrin, a California native and rider for Warhorse HSBK Ducati, persevered through two red flags, and was dominant through the final stint of the race on his Ducati Panigale V2 bike, winning by 5.330 seconds over Richie Escalante and Tyler Scott, who finished second and third. Herrin made the most of his opportunities throughout the day, overcoming trouble exiting his pit with 16 laps to go, cementing himself among the legends who have been victorious at Daytona International Speedway.

Herrin joined a list of stars from the two-wheeled world who cemented their legacy in their respective racing disciplines with a win at Daytona International Speedway over the 10 days of events.

Fans of DAYTONA Supercross were guaranteed to see a new champion with no previous 450SX winners in the field for the 55th running of Bike Week’s opening racing event on Saturday, March 1. And there were a plethora of hungry riders ready to step up to the top of the podium. In the end, it was veteran rider Ken Roczen who captured the victory in his 11th attempt at glory at DIS.

The Progressive Insurance ECSTAR Suzuki rider put on a Monster Energy AMA Supercross clinic after taking the lead at the midpoint of the race, holding off Cooper Webb and Aaron Plessinger, who finished second and third, respectively.

The 250SX class also had a first-time DAYTONA Supercross winner as Hudson, Florida, native RJ Hampshire captured the win. Tom Vialle and Seth Hammaker rounded out the top three.

When the racing action shifted from the temporary Ricky Carmichael-designed Supercross course located along the frontstretch of the famed Daytona International Speedway to the historic 3.51-mile road course, a familiar name in Harley-Davidson x Dynojet Factory Racing rider Kyle Wyman took home the hardware in the pair of Mission King Of The Baggers races.

Wyman won his fourth and fifth consecutive Daytona King Of The Baggers trophies, sweeping the two weekend races for the series on Friday and Saturday afternoons. But the two wins played out completely differently.

On Friday, Wyman faced an early challenge from Troy Herfoss, but when Herfoss crashed out with five laps to go, it was clear sailing to the checkered flag for Wyman. On Saturday, the pair stayed close together throughout the race – with Herfoss leading on the white flag lap. But Wyman took the lead coming out of the infield portion and was able to hold off Herfoss through the backstretch chicane for the win.

On Thursday and Friday night, the Progressive American Flat Track organization put on a show under the lights on the DAYTONA Flat Track, located in the shadow of the famed banking outside Turns 1 and 2 of Daytona International Speedway.

Rick Ware Racing’s Dallas Daniels once again reigned supreme on the short track at Daytona, sweeping the Mission AFT SuperTwins class pair of features. He won one of the two races a year ago.

Kody Kopp, the winningest rider in AFT Singles history, continued to build on his win total by capturing victory in both races. He now has 23 wins in AFT Singles presented by KICKER, five of them at Daytona.

As the 84th annual Bike Week winds down, visitors can still look forward to a summer filled with fun at Daytona International Speedway. Events such as the spring Daytona Turkey Run (March 21-23), Jeep Beach (April 18-27), and Welcome to Rockville (May 15-18) will provide entertainment for fans of all ages.

NASCAR returns to the World Center of Racing for intense action as the NASCAR Cup Series will close out the regular season and set the Playoff field during the Coke Zero Sugar 400 on Saturday, August 23. The NASCAR Xfinity Series will also be helping to set their Playoff field in the Wawa 250 Powered by Coca-Cola on August 22.
