Trading performance and revenue trends

  • Retail sales for July and August show a 12% volume decline so far in Q3 2025, reflecting weaker demand in key markets.

  • Q1 and Q2 2025 wholesales were boosted by the EX30 ramp-up, but this effect is no longer present in Q3, aligning wholesale and retail sales.

  • Revenues from contract manufacturing were SEK 2 billion in Q1 2025 and SEK 3 billion in Q2 2025; no Q3 figure is available yet.

  • Wholesale and retail sales are expected to align in Q3 as inventory adjustments have been completed.

Profitability and margins

  • Gross margin is negatively impacted by a 12% drop in retail sales and U.S. tariffs on imports.

  • Pricing actions have been taken to mitigate tariff impacts, with relief expected as European (Ghent) production ramps up.

  • Stronger Swedish krona (SEK) continues to be a headwind for margins.

  • Depreciation and amortization are expected to increase in 2025 due to new vehicle production ramp-up.

  • Revenue from CO2 credit sales is expected to be lower in Q3, with Q2 reflecting the full first half of 2025.

Balance sheet and liquidity position

  • Q3 typically sees seasonally weak free cash flow due to planned plant shutdowns during vacation periods.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
