ASELSAN ELEKTRONİK SANAYİ VE TİCARET A.Ş. Özel Durum Açıklaması (Genel) 27 Ağustos 2025

ASELSAN has incorporated a newly allocated area for investment purposes of 6,500-acre in Ankara Oğulbey with the aim of further strengthening its global position in defence technologies. Currently operating on an open area of 5,000 acres, with this expansion our Company has more than doubled its existing footprint.

Today, the foundations of a new investment worth USD 1.5 billion have been laid in this new campus at the ceremony attended by our President. This investment, one of the largest industrial investments in Türkiye in recent years, also marks the single largest defence investment in the history of our Republic.

Through this major initiative, higher-volume serial production of many critical technologies particularly Air Defence Systems that will form the STEEL DOME will be undertaken, while additional capabilities and infrastructure for design, testing, and production will be established.

The financing of the investment has been structured with due consideration to the following elements, in a manner that will maintain/preserve ASELSAN's robust financial position:

1. ASELSAN's strong equity base and profitability will be among the most important assurances of this investment.
2. The facilities planned to become operational at our new campus by mid-2026 will directly contribute to our Company's revenues and investment financing.
3. One of our existing campuses, located within the city and facing operational challenges, will be utilized for investment purposes through a revenue-sharing model, generating significant resources for our Company.
4. Advance Loans Against Investment Commitment (YTAK), approved under attractive terms for high-technology projects, will be utilized.
5. The Project-Based Investment Incentive, approved by the Ministry of Industry and Technology, will be leveraged.

With this investment, ASELSAN will continue its sustainable growth, further advancing its serial production capacity, R&D capabilities, employment opportunities, and competitive strength in global markets.

Respectfully announced to the public.
