The earnings call presented a mixed outlook. Mercedes-Benz highlighted significant product and technology advancements, strong cash flow, and efficiency gains. However, these were tempered by the negative impacts of tariffs, challenges in the Chinese market, and a reduced sales outlook for 2025.

Company Guidance -

Q3 2025

During the Mercedes-Benz conference call, significant guidance was provided regarding financial and strategic performance. The company produced a solid financial performance in Q2 2025, with a 5.1% adjusted return on sales for cars, impacted by tariffs estimated to have a mid-3-digit million euro effect. The company achieved a healthy 10.4% return on sales for vans, citing minor tariff impacts. Harald Wilhelm, CFO, emphasized a robust cash flow generation, achieving a EUR 1.9 billion industrial cash flow, covering the dividend payout. The guidance for the fiscal year 2025 anticipates car sales significantly below 2024 levels, primarily due to challenges in China. The expected return on sales adjusted for cars remains within a 4% to 6% range, including a 150 basis point tariff impact. The company is also executing a product and technology offensive, planning to launch over 25 models in the next three years, with the first vehicle of the Mercedes-Benz electric architecture (MB.EA) making its debut at the International Auto Show. They are focusing on advancing their electric and autonomous driving technologies while managing challenges in the current economic environment.
