FAURECIA CLOSES THE SECOND HALF OF THE YEAR WITH A GLOBAL GROWTH OF 27.9%

Faurecia, one of the main leaders in the automotive industry, presented its results report for the second quarter of 2021. It stands out the growth in its world sales of 27.9% compared to the same period last year, which represents 7,783 million euros.

We achieved strong performance in the first half, despite two main adverse effects: semiconductor shortages and raw material cost inflation. I would like to thank all the Faurecia teams for this performance. Our operations once again proved to be very resilient with a solid operating margin of 6.6% of sales. We had strong net cash flow of € 290 million and had strong order intake of € 12 billion, reflecting our potential to accelerate profitable growth. ”

Patrick Koller, CEO of Faurecia.

 

The company highlighted that growth was a constant in its four business divisions, compared to the second quarter of 2020:

• Seating increased 34.1%
• Interiors grew 31.9%
• Clean Mobility is up 29.4%
• Clarion Electronics increased by 27.0%

Faurecia continues to consolidate in all the regions in which it operates. In the North American cluster, to which Mexico belongs, sales totaled 1.78 billion euros, representing 23% of the company's total sales. In addition, the region was the second in terms of automotive production, with a growth of 32%, compared to last year.

With these results, Faurecia confirms its financial goals for 2022 and its ambition for 2025, as presented at its recent Capital Market Day in February 2021.
