Financial Report July - September 2026
Autoliv reported Q3 2026 net sales of $2,693 million, down 0.5% year-over-year (organic sales -1.1%), with diluted EPS of $2.13, a 6.8% decline. Profitability stayed solid with a 9.7% adjusted operating margin and 24.4% adjusted ROCE, though operating income fell 5.0% partly due to a prior-year supplier settlement benefit. Management narrowed full-year adjusted operating margin guidance to around 10.5%, the low end of its prior 10.5-11% range, citing increased cost headwinds from raw materials, logistics, Thailand flooding, and lower call-off accuracy.
