6 terms
Adjusted operating income financial
"Adjusted operating income(1) reached €1.0 billion, with AOI margin(2) of 2.5%"
Adjusted operating income is a company's profit from its main activities, excluding certain one-time or unusual costs and gains. It helps investors see how well the business is performing in its normal operations, without distractions from rare events or expenses. This way, they get a clearer picture of the company’s true profitability.
Industrial free cash flows financial
"Industrial free cash flows(3) were negative €1.9 billion, reflecting typical first-quarter seasonality"
Industrial free cash flows are the cash a manufacturing or heavy-equipment business actually generates after paying all operating bills and the money needed to maintain or replace factories, machines and other long-lived assets. Think of it as the spare cash left after keeping the factory running; investors use it to judge a company’s ability to pay dividends, cut debt, fund growth or survive downturns, especially important in capital-intensive, cyclical industries.
AOI margin financial
"Adjusted operating income margin (2) | | 2.5% | | 0.9% | | 160 bps"
hybrid perpetual notes financial
"Hybrid perpetual notes issued in March 2026 for a total of €5 billion"
Hybrid perpetual notes are long-term securities that blend features of loans and shares: they typically pay higher regular coupons like bonds but have no fixed maturity date and can be treated like equity in times of financial stress, meaning payments can be skipped or principal can be written down. They matter to investors because they offer higher yields in exchange for greater risk — think of lending money that might never be repaid on schedule and could absorb losses like an ownership stake — which affects a company’s credit profile and the safety of other creditors.

AMSTERDAM, April 30, 2026 — Stellantis N.V. ("Stellantis") reported Q1 2026 financial results that demonstrate year-over-year improvement across key financial metrics. Net revenues increased 6% year-over-year to €38.1 billion, supported by improved performance in North America, as well as gains in Enlarged Europe and Middle East & Africa. Net profit improved to €0.4 billion, primarily reflecting volume growth and stronger operating performance.
Adjusted operating income(1) was €1.0 billion, representing an AOI margin(2) of 2.5%, with most regions delivering positive results.
During Q1 2026, the Company further strengthened its balance sheet through the issuance of three tranches of hybrid perpetual notes totaling €5 billion, reinforcing liquidity and capital flexibility.
Operationally, Q1 2026 showed encouraging early signs of progress. Stellantis accelerated actions to improve industrial execution and support sustainable, profitable growth, including addressing key manufacturing and quality issues and closing execution gaps. A strong customer response to 2025 product launches, combined with the planned launch of 10 new and 6 refreshed vehicles in 2026, is expected to further strengthen momentum.
With a strong balance sheet and improving fundamentals, Stellantis started 2026 on a firm footing. Consistent with this stronger financial performance, the Company confirmed its 2026 financial guidance.
Regional results for the quarter reflected positive momentum across key markets.
North America: Sales increased 6% versus Q1 2025, with growth of 4% in the U.S., 15% in Canada and 19% in Mexico. Stellantis outperformed a declining U.S. industry trend which was down 6% in Q1 2026 and was the fastest-growing automaker in the region. Market share rose to 7.9%, up 80 basis points year-over-year, driven by Ram, whose U.S. sales increased approximately 20% year-over-year, the highest Q1 since 2023 and the fastest growing brand in North America. Jeep also drove improvement with the all-new Jeep® Cherokee, refreshed Jeep® Grand Cherokee, Jeep® Grand Wagoneer and new Dodge Charger SIXPACK now available in dealer showrooms across the U.S., offering customers greater freedom of choice in the region’s largest market.
Enlarged Europe: Sales increased 5% and, including Leapmotor(7), increased 8% versus Q1 2025, driven primarily by Italy, Germany and Spain. Stellantis outperformed the industry’s modest growth in the quarter. EU30 Market share reached 17.5%, up 20 basis points year-over-year and, including Leapmotor(7), 18.1%, up 70 basis points. Growth was supported by a diversified portfolio across BEV, hybrid and ICE powertrains, including the launch of the Fiat Grande Panda ICE on the Smart Car platform. The C-SUV portfolio continues to strengthen, supported by Citroën C5 Aircross and Jeep® Compass. Stellantis reaffirmed its leadership in the EU30 LCV segment, achieving a 28.7% market share. Leapmotor continued to build commercial momentum across Europe and emerged as the leading BEV brand in Italy.
South America: Sales increased 1% and, including Leapmotor(7), increased 2% versus Q1 2025. Despite a market share decrease of 270 basis points year-over-year, Stellantis maintained its regional leadership with a 21.1% market share, confirming its #1 positions in Brazil, with 28.9% market share and Argentina, with 28.9%. Key launches during the quarter included the all-new Ram Dakota, Jeep® Renegade MCA, Jeep® Commander MHEV and Leapmotor B10. Stellantis also confirmed its leadership in the LCV segment, achieving a 33.8% market share.
Middle East & Africa: Sales remained stable despite a declining industry trend, down 4% year-over-year. Stellantis market share increased to 11.5%, up 50 basis points year-over-year, driven by 18% year-over-year sales growth in Algeria, where we hold the number one position there, as well as in Türkiye. Key product launches during the quarter included Jeep® Compass and the refreshed Peugeot 408 in Türkiye, as well as the Citroën Basalt in South Africa.
Asia Pacific: Sales declined 4% and, including Leapmotor(7), decreased 2% versus Q1 2025, reflecting a weaker industry environment. Notably, India delivered a 71% sales increase during the quarter, fueled by Citroën’s refreshed line-up.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
(A) In 2026, following the issuance of hybrid perpetual notes classified as equity, coupons accrued on these instruments, together with the hybrid perpetual notes, are accounted for in a separate reserve within equity, which is not available for distribution to equity holders. The deferred tax effect arising from the issuance discount and other costs on the hybrid perpetual notes is also recognized directly in equity within Retained earnings and other reserves. Accordingly, the coupon accrued and the deferred tax impact are deducted from Net profit/(loss) attributable to the equity holders of the parent in calculating both basic and diluted earnings per share. No such adjustment was required in 2025, as no hybrid perpetual notes were outstanding during that period
(B) For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company reported a loss attributable to the owners of the parent. Consequently, the potential dilutive impact of share-based payment plans was excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings/(loss) per share, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. However, for the purpose of calculating Adjusted diluted earnings per share, the adjusted net result reflects a profit. Therefore, the potential dilutive effect of share-based payment plans has been included in this calculation, as their impact is dilutive under these circumstances
(C) Tax impact on adjustments is calculated based on the expected local country tax implications for each adjustment

NOTES
(1) Adjusted operating income/(loss) excludes from Net profit/(loss) from continuing operations adjustments comprising restructuring and other termination costs, impairments, asset write-offs, disposals of investments and unusual operating income/(expense) that are considered rare or discrete events and are infrequent in nature, as inclusion of such items is not considered to be indicative of the Company's ongoing operating performance, and also excludes Net financial expenses/(income) and Tax expense/(benefit).
Unusual operating income/(expense) are impacts from strategic decisions, as well as events considered rare or discrete and infrequent in nature, as inclusion of such items is not considered to be indicative of the Company's ongoing operating performance. Unusual operating income/(expense) includes, but may not be limited to: impacts from strategic decisions to rationalize Stellantis' core operations; facility-related costs stemming from Stellantis' plans to match production capacity and cost structure to market demand, and convergence and integration costs directly related to significant acquisitions or mergers.
(2) Adjusted operating income/(loss) margin is calculated as Adjusted operating income/(loss) divided by Net revenues.
(3) Industrial free cash flows is our key cash flow metric and is calculated as Cash flows from operating activities less: (i) cash flows from operating activities from discontinued operations; (ii) cash flows from operating activities related to financial services, net of eliminations; (iii) investments in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets for industrial activities; (iv) contributions of equity to joint ventures and minor acquisitions of consolidated subsidiaries and equity method and other investments; and adjusted for: (i) net intercompany payments between continuing operations and discontinued operations; (ii) proceeds from disposal of assets and (iii) contributions to defined benefit pension plans, net of tax. The timing of Industrial free cash flows may be affected by the timing of monetization of receivables, factoring and the payment of accounts payables, as well as changes in other components of working capital, which can vary from period to period due to, among other things, cash management initiatives and other factors, some of which may be outside of the Company’s control. In addition, Industrial free cash flows is one of the metrics used in the determination of the annual performance bonus for eligible employees, including members of the senior management.
(4) The majority of our liquidity is available to our treasury operations in Europe and U.S.; however, liquidity is also available to certain subsidiaries which operate in other countries. Cash held in such countries may be subject to restrictions on transfer depending on the foreign jurisdictions in which these subsidiaries operate. Based on our review of such transfer restrictions in the countries in which we operate and maintain material cash balances, (and in particular in Argentina, in which we have €409 million cash and securities at March 31, 2026 (€354 million at December 31, 2025), and in Algeria, in which we have €203 million (€276 million at December 31, 2025)), we do not believe such transfer restrictions had an adverse impact on the Company’s ability to meet its liquidity requirements at the dates presented above. Cash and cash equivalents also include €793 million at March 31, 2026 (€663 million at December 31, 2025) held in bank deposits which are restricted to the operations related to securitization programs and warehouses credit facilities of Stellantis Financial Services U.S.
(5) Adjusted diluted earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated by adjusting Diluted earnings per share for the post-tax impact per share of the same items excluded from Adjusted operating income as well as tax expense/(benefit) items that are considered rare or infrequent, or whose nature would distort the presentation of the ongoing tax charge of the Company. We believe this non-GAAP measure is useful because it also excludes items that we do not believe are indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance and provides investors with a more meaningful comparison of the Company’s ongoing quality of earnings. Adjusted diluted EPS should not be considered as a substitute for Basic earnings per share, Diluted earnings per share from operations or other methods of analyzing our quality of earnings as reported under IFRS.
(6) Combined shipments include shipments by the Company's consolidated subsidiaries and unconsolidated joint ventures, whereas Consolidated shipments only include shipments by the Company's consolidated subsidiaries. This includes the vehicles produced by our joint ventures and associates (including Leapmotor International) which are distributed by our consolidated subsidiaries. In addition to the volumes included in consolidated shipments, combined shipments also includes the vehicles distributed by our joint ventures (such as Tofas). Figures by segments may not add up due to rounding.
(7) Leapmotor International, is a jointly established, Stellantis-controlled company created in 2024 and owned 51 percent by Stellantis and 49 percent by Leapmotor, to distribute Leapmotor-branded vehicles outside of China. Stellantis does not design, or manufacture Leapmotor-branded vehicles and does not own the Leapmotor brand or intellectual property.
(8) Effective January 2026, the Company’s segment structure was updated to align with how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) reviews performance and allocates resources. Under the revised structure, the CODM reviews the business through the following operating and reportable segments: North America; Enlarged Europe; Middle East & Africa; South America; and Asia Pacific.
The changes in our segment reporting are summarized below:
•Maserati is no longer presented as a separate reportable segment as it is managed consistently with the other brands within the regions and are therefore presented on a “where sold” basis). Maserati is therefore no longer presented as a separate reportable segment;
•The Asia Pacific region is now managed as a single operating segment. Previously, the CODM reviewed two operating segments: (i) China and (ii) India & Asia Pacific, which were reported as one reportable segment under IFRS 8. From 2026, these activities are reviewed together, resulting in one operating and reportable segment: Asia Pacific; and
•European used car operations, previously included within Other activities, have been reclassified to the Enlarged Europe segment in line with the CODM’s oversight.
Comparative information has been restated to reflect the revised segment structure. The impact of these changes is presented in the following table:.

(9) Industrial net financial position is calculated as Debt plus derivative financial liabilities related to industrial activities less (i) cash and cash equivalents, (ii) financial securities that are considered liquid, (iii) current financial receivables from the Company or its jointly controlled financial services entities and (iv) derivative financial assets and collateral deposits. Therefore, debt, cash and cash equivalents and other financial assets/ liabilities pertaining to Stellantis’ financial services entities are excluded from the computation of the Industrial net financial position. Industrial net financial position includes the Industrial net financial position classified as held for sale.
(10) Financial securities are comprised of short term or marketable securities which represent temporary investments but do not satisfy all the requirements to be classified as cash equivalents as they may be subject to risk of change in value (even if they are short-term in nature or marketable.)
