Autoliv reports Q1 adjusted EPS $1.58, consensus $1.41

Reports Q1 revenue $2.615B, consensus $2.59B. Mikael Bratt, President & CEO, commented, “We delivered record Q1 sales, outperforming global LVP growth by 6pp. We outperformed in all regions, including China despite a negative LVP mix development with domestic Chinese OEMs growing by 17% and global OEMs declining by 5%. It is encouraging that our sales in India grew organically by 27%. Sales in India are now larger than in South Korea, accounting for more than 4% of our global sales. We delivered results in line with what we previously communicated, despite LVP being 1pp below what was expected three months ago, and we are on track to deliver on our full year outlook. We expect a record number of product launches in 2024, despite some OEMs changing certain vehicle model launch plans, mainly for EV platforms.”
