Stellantis Q3 2024 – Shipments and Revenues Plunge

Posted on 31 October 2024 by Ken Zino

Stellantis N.V. (NYSE: STLA) said today that during Q3 2024 net revenues of €33.0 billion were down -27% compared to Q3 2023 as consolidated shipments of 1,148,000 were down 279,000 or -20% year-over-year. Stellantis also confirmed its diminished 2024 financial guidance, which was updated on September 30, 2024.*

“While Q3 2024 performance is below our potential, I’m pleased with our progress addressing operational issues, in particular U.S. inventories, which have been reduced meaningfully and are on track for year-end targets, as well as stabilization of U.S. market share. In Europe, stringent quality requirements delayed the start of certain high-volume products, but with progress resolving challenges we will soon benefit from the significantly expanded reach our generational new product wave brings to 2025 and beyond,” claimed Doug Ostermann, CFO, who replaced Natalie Knight earlier this month. Stellantis is also looking to find a successor for CEO Carlos Tavares, who will retire from his seat in 2026.

In what seems to be a “whistling past the graveyard” release appropriate for Halloween, Stellantis put forth yet again its transition plan. Stellantis’ 14 brands are to some degree or other at the heart of the Company’s planned revival/survival with ~20 new products expected this year. Continue reading →
