Company Guidance -
Q3 2025
During the Continental AG Analyst and Investor Call for H1 2025, the company provided detailed financial guidance and discussed several key metrics. The Q2 2025 results highlighted an EBIT effect of EUR 235 million, equivalent to 240 basis points in the automotive sector, due to the application of IFRS 5 accounting following an automobile spin-off. The company's sales dropped from EUR 10 billion to EUR 9.6 billion, primarily impacted by a 3.4% FX headwind, mainly from the U.S. dollar. Organic sales in a highly volatile environment were down 0.4%. Automotive profitability improved to the upper guidance range of 4%, driven by significant fixed cost reductions. The tire segment experienced strong FX headwinds, with a profitability drag in the low 3-digit million euro range from FX and tariffs. For the group, like-for-like earnings without IFRS 5 adjustments amounted to EUR 595 million at a 6.2% margin. The company confirmed its guidance for 2025, expecting reduced tariff headwinds in the second half of the year, while also targeting an equity ratio above 30% post-spin-off.
