Group Results
We are pleased to announce that we anticipate the Group’s results for the year ended 31 December 2018 to be in line with our expectations outlined in the Q3 Trading Update issued on 8 November 2018.
The Group is expected to report revenue of approximately €3.5 billion for the year ended 31 December 2018. On a constant currency basis, we expect our 2018 revenue growth to exceed growth in global light vehicle production by approximately 3.0%.*
As anticipated, 2018 Adjusted EBIT margin is likely to be broadly in line with 2017.
2018 Adjusted Free Cash Flow is now anticipated to exceed expectations as a result of strong H2 cash generation.
Outlook
We remain confident in the Group’s ability to outperform global light vehicle production volume growth on a constant currency basis, maintain high margins and generate strong cash flow. We will provide our 2019 outlook with our full year 2018 results.
