Stellantis steigert Nettoumsatz im ersten Quartal des Jahres um 12% − Ausblick für das Gesamtjahr bestätigt

• Nettoumsatz von 41,5 Mrd. €; Anstieg um 12% gegenüber den 37,0 Mrd. € des ersten Quartals 2021 auf Pro Forma-Basis⁽¹⁾ dank starker Pricing Power und starkem Fahrzeugmix sowie positiver Währungseffekte

• Konsolidierte Auslieferungen⁽²⁾ von 1,374 Millionen Einheiten entsprechen einem Rückgang von 12%, vor allem aufgrund nicht produzierter Aufträge durch die Knappheit an Halbleitern

• Neuwagenbestand von insgesamt 807.000 Einheiten zum 31. März 2022 und damit in etwa auf dem Niveau vom 31. Dezember 2021; Firmenbestand von 179.000 Einheiten

• Ordentliche Dividende von 1,04 € pro Aktie durch die Hauptversammlung bestätigt und den Anteilseignern im April 2022 ausbezahlt

Alle Vergleichswerte beziehen sich auf das 1. Quartal (Pro Forma)⁽¹⁾

„Der Nettoumsatz im 1. Quartal stieg dank starker Nettopreise, dank eines günstigen Fahrzeugmixes und positiver Wechselkurseffekte um 12%, während die Auslieferungen um 12% zurückgingen. Unsere Prognose für das Gesamtjahr für zweistellige Margen beim angepassten Betriebsergebnis⁽³⁾ und einen positiven Cashflow wird trotz der Herausforderungen durch die Angebots-Situation und die Inflation bestätigt, da eine gute Produktdynamik und strategische Partnerschaften weiterhin den Weg ebnen.“       Richard Palmer, CFO

Amsterdam, 5. Mai 2022 - Die heutigen Ergebnisse, die von unserer erfolgreichen Produkt- und Technologieoffensive angetrieben werden, zeigen die Fähigkeit von Stellantis, dem aktuellen Gegenwind zu trotzen und gleichzeitig Dare Forward 2030 umzusetzen – den mutigen Strategieplan des Unternehmens für das kommende Jahrzehnt.

Die Umsätze von Stellantis im ersten Quartal 2022 zeigen die Stärke der aktuellen Produkte, darunter Jeep Grand Cherokee L und Wagoneer/Grand Wagoneer für Nordamerika, DS 4, neuer Fiat 500e, Opel Mokka sowie die leichten Nutzfahrzeuge für das erweiterte Europa und Jeep Grand Cherokee, Peugeot 3008 und Citroën C4 für den Nahen Osten und Afrika. Dazu haben Fiat Pulse, Jeep Compass, Peugeot 208 und Fiat Cronos stark zur Marktführerschaft in Südamerika beigetragen⁽⁵⁾. Zudem setzt sich die Produktdynamik von Stellantis bei emissionsarmen Fahrzeugen⁽⁶⁾ fort: Die batterieelektrischen⁽⁷⁾-Verkäufe im erweiterten Europa legten im Jahresvergleich um mehr als 50% zu.

Das Unternehmen hat auch wichtige Fortschritte auf dem Weg zu der geplanten Batteriekapazität von 400 GWh bis 2030 erzielt, indem im ersten Quartal 2022 strategische Partnerschaften mit LG Energy Solution und Automotive Cells Company (ACC) eingegangen wurden. Im Rahmen dieser wird die erste große Produktionsanlage für Lithium-Ionen-Batterien in Kanada entstehen (Windsor) sowie eine neue Batterieanlage im Werk Termoli (Italien). In einem weiteren Schlüsselbereich des Plans Dare Forward 2030, der einen konsequenten Kurs in Richtung einer nachhaltigen Zukunft vorgibt, ist Stellantis im Rahmen des Software definierten Ansatzes strategische Partnerschaften mit Amazon und Foxconn eingegangen.

(“Stellantis” or “Company”). PSA was determined to be the acquirer for accounting purposes, therefore, the historical financial statements of Stellantis represent the continuing operations of PSA, which also reflect the loss of control and the classification of Faurecia S.E. (Faurecia) as a discontinued operation as of January 1, 2021 with the restatement of comparative periods. Acquisition date of business combination was January 17, 2021, therefore, results of FCA for the period January 1 - 16, 2021 are excluded from Q1 2021 results unless otherwise stated. Q1 2021 Pro Forma results are presented as if the merger had occurred on January 1, 2020 and include results of FCA for the period January 1 – 16, 2021.

(3) Adjusted operating income/(loss) excludes from Net profit/(loss) from continuing operations adjustments comprising restructuring, 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), Tax expense/(benefit) and Share of the profit/(loss) of equity method investees.

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.

The timing of Industrial free cash flows may be affected by the timing of monetization of receivables 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
