Porsche AG: Weak Deliveries And Limited Near-Term Catalysts Keep Us On The Sidelines

Mare Evidence Lab6.02K FollowersFollow5ShareSavePlay(9min)CommentsSummaryQ1 deliveries declined 15% y/y, with weakness across key models more than offsetting a stronger mix (notably 911), pointing to continued near-term pressure on earnings. With no meaningful model catalysts before 2028 and potential restructuring charges ahead, profitability recovery remains back-end loaded despite management’s margin focus. Strategic actions, cost cuts, non-core asset sales, and product strategy overhaul, are anticipated to sharpen P911’s turnaround profile ahead of the autumn CMD. While the new CEO’s shift toward margin discipline is encouraging, demand uncertainty (notably in China and the Middle East) and weaker risk-reward lead us to maintain an equal weight rating.
