Stellantis NV (NYSE: STLA) shares are trading lower by 3.05% to $13.20 Tuesday morning in sympathy with peer automaker Ford Motor Company (NYSE: NYSE:F) following the company's warning that part shortages will impact its third-quarter results.
What Happened?
Ford says the company expects to have about 40,000 to 45,000 vehicles in inventory at end of third quarter lacking certain parts presently in short supply
- Ford says "vehicles on wheels" awaiting those parts disproportionately include high-demand, high-margin models of popular trucks and SUVs
- The company notes that completing such vehicles will shift some revenue and EBIT to fourth-quarter; based on recent negotiations, inflation-related third-quarter supply costs will be ~$1.0 billion above plan
- Anticipates third-quarter adjusted EBIT of between $1.4 billion and $1.7 billion
The company intends to announce full third-quarter 2022 financial results – and provide more dimension about expectations for full-year performance – on Wednesday, October 26th.
According to data from Benzinga Pro, Stellantis NV has a 52-week high of $21.92 and a 52-week low of $11.37.
