(Reuters) -Daimler Truck, one of the world's biggest truckmakers, cut its operating profit forecast for 2025 on Tuesday, citing heightened demand uncertainty.

The company is now forecasting adjusted earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) growth of -5% to 5%, compared with 5% to 15% growth expected previously.

U.S. President Donald Trump's trade war has pummeled markets in recent weeks and even beforehand, a Reuters analysis showed that about 40 companies worldwide had pulled or lowered their guidance in the first two weeks of the first-quarter earnings season, including General Motors and Volvo Cars.

Daimler Truck's updated outlook for 2025 is subject to further macroeconomic and geopolitical developments, it said.
