Financials Market: Bosch Revenue Up, Profitability Down in H1
Bosch, the German technology and automotive supplier, reported a 3.6% increase in revenue to €46.4 billion in the first half of 2026, but its profitability declined. Adjusted EBIT fell to €2.2 billion, with the EBIT margin dropping to 4.6%. The revenue growth was largely driven by acquisitions, including the heating and cooling business from Johnson Controls and Hitachi. Special effects in the mobility business, such as impairments on production assets due to slower-than-expected e-mobility adoption, weighed on results. Net profit after taxes was around €1.1 billion. Despite the challenging environment, Bosch confirmed its full-year 2026 guidance of 2-5% revenue growth and an operating EBIT margin of 4-6%. CFO Markus Forschner emphasized cost reduction and competitiveness. Bosch also noted that it had posted a net loss in 2025, its first since the financial crisis.
Bosch is a major automotive supplier, but this earnings report is about general corporate financials, not directly related to advertising or marketing technology.
