March 4 (Reuters) - German car parts supplier Continental on Wednesday guided for broadly stable 2026 sales and profitability in its core tyres business in a persistently volatile demand environment.
The company expects annual sales in the core unit to land between 13.2 billion and 14.2 billion euros ($15.3 billion and $16.5 billion), compared with 13.8 billion euros in 2025. At midpoint, the forecast is slightly below a consensus estimate of 14.0 billion euros.
Adjusted operating profit margin is projected between 13.0% and 14.5% for the tyres business, compared with 13.6% last year and analysts' average estimate of 14% provided on the Continental website.
