DOW JONES–Traton is somewhat more pessimistic about the year as a whole after a weaker nine months. In the period from January to September, sales fell slightly due to headwinds, especially in North America, and profits fell noticeably. For the year as a whole, the commercial vehicle holding company is now narrowing its forecast for both returns and cash flow to the lower end of the forecast range.
The operating return is likely to be at the lower end of the range of 6.0 and 7.0, the net cash flow operations is likely to be at the lower end of the range of 1.0 billion to 1.5 billion euros. According to the further information, sales and turnover are likely to remain unchanged at best – as previously forecast – and at worst both values are likely to fall by a tenth in 2025.
In the first nine months, the group’s sales fell by 9 percent and sales fell by 8 percent to 32.32 billion euros. The operating profit fell even more sharply to 1.72 billion from 3.10 billion euros. Adjusted earnings fell to 2.04 billion from 3.26 billion euros. The corresponding adjusted margin deteriorated to 6.3 from 9.3 percent.
