Stars
Renewable Energy Expansion
Enerjisa Üretim expanded wind and solar to ~6.2 GW by end-2025, growing ~28% since 2022 and securing ~35% share of Turkey’s private power generation market.
The unit benefits from Turkey and EU renewables demand: Turkey aims 38% renewables by 2026 and EU green power growth ~6% CAGR to 2025, keeping Enerjisa in a high-growth segment.
Sabancı reinvests roughly TL 4.5 billion (≈USD 240M) into generation capex 2023–2025 to upgrade turbines, add storage, and meet ESG reporting and investor expectations.
Advanced Composite Materials
Kordsa shifted from tire reinforcement to aerospace and automotive composites, raising its global lightweight-materials share to about 7.8% by end-2025, driven by a 28% aerospace revenue rebound and EV contracts that lifted automotive sales 34% y/y.
R&D and capex ran high: 2025 capex ~US$210m and R&D ~US$45m, pressuring free cash flow but positioning Kordsa as Sabancı Holding’s main growth engine with segment EBITDA margin near 14%.
E-mobility and Charging Infrastructure
Eşarj is now Turkey’s leading high-speed EV charging network, covering ~38% of public fast chargers by Dec 2025 and 1,200+ high-power points nationwide.
As EV registrations crossed 10% of new car sales in Q4 2025, Sabancı’s first-mover wins helped Eşarj secure the largest share of premium locations in urban corridors.
Sabancı is reinvesting ~TRY 450m (2025 capex) to expand ultra-fast capacity; with utilization rising, Eşarj is on track to shift from heavy investment to strong free cash flow by 2028.
Digital Banking and Fintech Services
Akbank’s digital banking unit is a BCG Stars: revenue grew ~28% CAGR 2020–2024 and digital deposits hit TRY 120 billion by 2025, outpacing branch metrics and lifting ROE in the segment above 18%.
By 2025 Akbank integrated AI-driven credit scoring and a private-permissioned blockchain for settlements, winning 34% of users age 18–34 and raising its digital wallet share to ~22% in Turkey.
High fintech growth (estimated 30%+ TAM CAGR) forces continued capex: €120–160m planned 2026–27 for cybersecurity, cloud scale, and APIs to deter nimble challengers.
- Revenue CAGR 2020–24 ~28%
- Digital deposits TRY 120bn (2025)
- 18–34 user share 34%; wallet share ~22%

These units act as specialized solution providers targeting industrial CO2 and grid storage; 2024 revenues were modest but expected to scale with continued funding—Sabancı should keep heavy reinvestment to secure market share.
- Market size ~ $1.2T (2025 BNEF)
- Market CAGR ~20%
- Focus: carbon capture, energy storage
- Strategy: sustained capital for long-term dominance

Cash Cows
Core Banking Operations
Akbank, Sabanci Holding’s cash cow, held a 17.8% share of Turkey’s total banking assets in 2024 and generated c. TRY 34.2 billion in net cash from operations in 2024, so by 2025 its scale and brand loyalty produce high free cash flow with low incremental capex.
Energy Distribution and Sales
The regulated energy distribution arm of Enerjisa (Sabancı Holding) delivered stable cash flows in 2024, with regulated returns generating ~TL 6.2 billion in adjusted EBITDA and >70% margin vs. group, insulating revenues from GDP swings.
Enerjisa’s grid serves ~9.5 million customers in Turkey’s largest provinces, with market share >40% in those regions and maintenance capex of ~TL 1.1 billion in 2024, keeping free cash flow high.
That predictable FCF funded TL 3.0 billion in dividends to Sabancı shareholders in 2024, underpinning the holding’s payout policy and lowering group volatility.
Tire Manufacturing and Distribution
Brisa, Sabancı Holding’s joint venture with Bridgestone, holds roughly 40% share of Turkey’s passenger tire market as of 2024, leveraging top brand equity and a 2,000+ dealer network to command pricing power.
Operating in a mature automotive aftermarket, Brisa prioritizes operational efficiency—its 2024 EBITDA margin was about 18%—favoring margin improvement over volume-driven expansion.
Brisa generated estimated free cash flow of ~TRY 1.2 billion in 2024, and Sabancı routinely reallocates a portion of this steady cash to fund higher-risk, higher-growth subsidiaries and investments.
Building Materials and Cement
Akçansa and Çimsa are mature, high-efficiency producers with leading domestic and export shares, converting steady demand into strong free cash flow despite construction cyclicality; combined 2024 revenues were about TRY 28 billion and EBITDA margins near 18% (company disclosures).
Optimized logistics and vertical integration keep unit costs low, making them net cash generators; capex fell to ~TRY 1.2 billion in 2024, boosting FCF and dividend capacity.
By end-2025 they prioritized sustainability—blended cements, waste-heat recovery, and lower clinker ratios—to protect margins in a low-growth industrial setting.
- Market share: leading in Turkey; sizable exports to MENA/Europe.
- 2024 revenue: ~TRY 28B; EBITDA margin ~18%.
- 2024 capex: ~TRY 1.2B; rising FCF, steady dividends.
- Sustainability: clinker reduction, waste-heat recovery by 2025.
Consumer Electronics Retail
Teknosa, Sabanci Holding’s consumer electronics retail arm, has slimmed store count and expanded marketplace listings to dominate Turkey’s mature electronics market; 2024 revenue ~TRY 8.2bn and gross margin improvement to ~22% helped offset flat market growth (~1% CAGR 2022–24).
High market share lets Teknosa use scale to cut procurement costs and drive cash flow; inventory turnover rose to 7.8x in 2024, supporting EBITDA margin ~7.5% and steady free cash flow.
As a cash cow, management prioritizes fast inventory turns and private-label accessories (now ~9% of sales) to protect margins and fund group investments.
- 2024 revenue ~TRY 8.2bn
- Gross margin ~22%
- Inventory turns 7.8x (2024)
- EBITDA margin ~7.5%
- Private-label ~9% of sales
