The EBIT margin in the Automotive Segment is now projected to be within the range of 9-10.5% (previously 8-10%).
Munich. The BMW Group updated its full-year outlook for 2023 today. Given the solid operational performance in the first half of 2023, the company expects positive momentum in the business during the second half of the year. This is built on the ongoing strength of the order bank and an expected improvement in the availability of its premium vehicles.
The BMW Group made the following changes to their guidance on financial indicators:
- Automotive segment deliveries to customers is expected to see solid growth over the prior-year level (previously: slight growth).
- In the Automotive segment, the EBIT margin for full year 2023 is anticipated to be within the corridor of 9% to 10.5% (previously: 8% to 10%)
- In the Automotive segment, Return on Capital Employed (RoCE) is expected to be between 18% and 22% (previously: 15% to 20%)
- The Financial Services segment Return on Equity (RoE) is expected to be between 16% and 19% (previously: 14% to 17%).
Additionally, free cash flow in the Automotive segment is now anticipated to be above €6 billion for the full year 2023, taking into account higher investments in the transformation to electromobility as well as increased inventories to ensure the necessary supply of vehicles to the markets.
