Strategic positioning and market outlook

  • Broad product portfolio enables integration across vehicle systems and early OEM partnerships, supporting both ICE, hybrid, and EV platforms globally.

  • Over 80% of offerings are powertrain-agnostic, allowing flexibility amid shifts in electrification and regional demand trends.

  • Adjustments to EV investments in North America led to customer recoveries and lower CapEx in 2025 and 2026, with continued strong positioning in China and Europe.

  • 2026 production outlook expects slight declines in North America and China, offset by growth in Europe; overall business projected down about 1%.

  • Operational flexibility and cost management have enabled resilience through recent industry disruptions.

Financial performance and capital allocation

  • EBIT margin expansion of 40-100 basis points expected in 2026, driven by operational excellence and higher revenue pull-through.

  • Growth over market guidance for 2026 is 0%-3% (1%-4% excluding complete vehicles), supported by global program launches and strong content on new vehicles.

  • Free cash flow forecasted at $1.6-$1.8 billion for 2026, with high conversion rates and disciplined CapEx management.

  • Capital allocation priorities include maintaining strong investment-grade ratings, share buybacks, continued dividend growth, and selective reinvestment in the business.

Segment performance and operational initiatives

  • Body Exteriors & Structures segment expects margin expansion to 8.2%-8.8% in 2026, driven by revenue pull-through and operational excellence.

  • Power & Vision segment projects 5%-7% growth over market and margin improvement to 6%-6.6%, aided by launches, mix, and equity income.

  • Seating segment faces mid-single digit sales decline due to program roll-offs but aims to hold margins through operational initiatives and new launches in 2027.

  • Complete Vehicles segment sees sales decline from program roll-offs but stable margins, with new business from Chinese OEMs supporting future growth.

  • Operational excellence includes thousands of plant-level initiatives and large-scale automation projects, contributing to sustained margin gains.

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.
