In an uncertain market environment in the first half of 2025, the TRATON GROUP reported a decrease in sales revenue of 6% to €21.9 billion (H1 2024: €23.4 billion), primarily due to lower unit sales. Positively, TRATON Financial Services strengthened the Group's sales revenue in connection with a further increase in its portfolio. Adjusted operating result declined by €750 million to €1.4 billion (H1 2024: €2.1 billion), and adjusted operating return on sales fell to 6.3% (H1 2024: 9.1%). The main reason for this was the decline in sales revenue combined with a lower capacity utilization in truck production. Moreover, currency effects, especially the appreciation of the Swedish krona, affected the operating result and the operating return on sales.
