Financial Performance – First Half 2025

 

  • Stellantis (including Fiat, Jeep, Peugeot, Chrysler, and others) reported net revenues of €74.3 billion for H1 2025, a 13% decrease versus the same period in 2024.

  • The group posted a net loss of €2.3 billion, reversing a €5.6 billion profit the year prior.

  • Adjusted operating income (AOI) for H1 2025 dropped to €540 million (AOI margin of 0.7%), down sharply from €8.5 billion and a 10.0% margin in H1 2024.

  • Industrial free cash flow was negative €3.0 billion, illustrating both weak profitability and large ongoing investments and R&D spending.

  • Cash flow from operating activities was negative €2.3 billion, compared to a positive €4.0 billion in H1 2024.

  • Stellantis still boasts strong liquidity, with €47.2 billion available as of June 30, 2025.

Key Challenges

  • Tariffs and trade barriers imposed in North America and Europe, culminating in over €1.5 billion of extra direct costs, hit margins and shipments hard.

  • Transition periods for discontinued or replaced models (like the Dodge Charger and Jeep Cherokee) caused a 23% drop in North American shipments and a 26% plunge in that region’s net revenues.

  • Increased sales incentives and reliance on lower-margin fleet sales further weighed on profitability.

  • Fiat's traditional stronghold in southern Europe saw sluggish demand and delayed ramp-up for new models. The Fiat 600 and Fiat Doblo Cargo provided some bright spots, though volume was limited.

  • Currency headwinds (notably with the Turkish Lira) severely impacted results in Fiat’s Middle East & Africa segment.

Geographic and Segment Highlights—Best and Worst Performers

  • Enlarged Europe: Shipments fell 7%, mainly due to slow introductions of new B-segment products. Some gains came from new Fiat 600 and Doblo models.

  • South America: Stellantis (and Fiat) performed better, with consolidated shipments up 5%, net revenues at €7.8 billion (+€402 million), and a healthy AOI margin of 15.3%.

  • North America: The toughest region, with shipments down 23% and a segment loss of €951 million in the first half.

  • Middle East & Africa: Shipments declined 8%, AOI down 27%, though Fiat’s vans and professional vehicles shored up performance somewhat.

Inventory and Outlook

  • Stellantis inventories were at 1.2 million units as of June 30, 2025, up 1% from year-end 2024.

  • Sequential improvement in shipments is expected as new models launch and cost controls take effect in H2 2025.

  • Forecasted low-single-digit operating margins are anticipated in the second half, as restructuring, cost reduction, and refreshed vehicle lineups take hold.

Leadership & Strategy

  • New CEO Antonio Filosa has prioritized brand revitalization, product launches, and recovery actions, especially for Fiat with its new small hybrids and updated core models.

Summary Outlook

Fiat’s outlook within Stellantis for H2 2025 is for cautious stabilization, relying on new models (especially hybrids/EVs), tighter inventory controls, and expense reductions. While headwinds from tariffs, weak European demand, and currency effects persist, strong liquidity and a refreshed lineup provide a base for gradual improvement toward late 2025 and 2026.
