With our extensive experience in the machinery manufacturing sector, strong technological capabilities, and global market reach, we have been achieving sustainable success for many years. These achievements are not limited to our expanding production capacity and positive customer feedback; they are also confirmed by independent reports that objectively evaluate our sectoral performance. The resulting data clearly demonstrates our role and growth dynamics in the door and window industry.
The Business Evaluation Report, published annually by KOSGEB, analyzes companies based on GTIP and NACE codes across key criteria such as exports, sales, financial structure, productivity, and human resources. In the report prepared with 2024 data, as Yılmaz Machine, we have demonstrated a remarkable performance in our sector in terms of income statement, balance sheet data, employment information, export performance, and R&D indicators.
According to KOSGEB 2024 data, we ranked first in Turkey in terms of net sales within our sector. We repeated this success in the TR1 Istanbul Region, achieving a leading position among our regional competitors.
A similar picture emerges in total assets. We ranked first both across Turkey and in the Istanbul region, clearly demonstrating our financial strength and scalable structure with concrete data. These results are a strong indicator of our long-term investment strategy, solid financial structure, and sustainable growth approach.
Another prominent topic in the report is human resources. Based on SGK data, we are positioned as the sector leader in terms of employee premium days, both in Turkey as a whole and in the TR1 Istanbul Region. The increase in the number of contribution days over the years reflects our stable employment policy, effective human resource management, and the importance we attach to a qualified labor. This structure supports not only production capacity but also long-term corporate sustainability.
We can confidently state that our employees’ expertise, training-oriented approach, and talent management processes exceed industry standards. This approach is one of the key pillars of our long-term performance.
Our R&D investments and innovative product development capabilities are supported by the patent, utility model, and trademark registration data included in the 2024 KOSGEB report. Our company conducts these activities sustainably, not only at the national level but also in line with international standards.
As of 2024, we hold 10 registered trademarks, 12 patents, and 5 utility models. These figures are significantly above the industry average. In addition, the recent increase in our R&D expenditures, along with the continuity and breadth of our intellectual property portfolio, supports our technology-driven manufacturing approach and value-added product development strategy. As an industrial company operating at a medium-to-high technology level, this approach provides us with a significant competitive advantage in global markets.
Exports stand out as one of our strongest areas in the KOSGEB report. As of 2024, exporting to 76 different countries, we ranked first nationwide in total sector exports.
The Russian Federation, Australia, Egypt, France, and Poland are among our leading export markets by volume. The diversity of products exported based on GTIP codes is well above sector averages, demonstrating our flexible manufacturing capability and ability to adapt to different markets. As Yılmaz Machine, we continue to position ourselves as a strong manufacturer, supplier, and solution partner not only in the domestic market but also internationally.
We have demonstrated stronger performance than industry averages in financial indicators such as net working capital, current ratio, cash ratio, and accounts receivable periods. These figures reveal that we have a solid structure not only in terms of scale but also in operational efficiency and financial discipline. Financial discipline and effective risk management enable us not only to achieve our growth targets but also to maintain resilliance against sudden market changes while sustaining growth without creating financial risk.
The KOSGEB Business Evaluation Report 2024 highlights our current position and serves as a strong indicator of our growth and investment vision for the future. The results clearly show that we hold a leading position in our sector in terms of scale, financial strength, export capacity, and employment. As Yılmaz Machine, we will continue to create value in both national and international markets without compromising our sustainable growth focus and our technology-driven production approach.
