Current Status#

Summary of the most recent reporting period: core figures, drivers and management statements; written editorially from the current original report, every figure backed by a source number.

For Q2 2026, Volkswagen AG reported revenue of 82,444 million 115; for the full H1 2026 period, Group sales revenue declined to €158.1 billion from €158.4 billion and the operating result decreased to €5.9 billion from €6.7 billion 5. Group deliveries and all-electric vehicle volumes declined year-on-year in H1 2026, driven by shortfalls in North America and Asia-Pacific 5. Material H1 transactions include an additional USD 1 billion Rivian equity investment, an arrangement to divest a majority stake in Everllence to Bain Capital, and an agreement to expand the Group's holding in Green Mobility Holding (Europcar parent) to 93% 5. Full-year guidance was revised downward in both deliveries and revenue due to significant market volume declines in China 5.
Management commentary on the FY2025 results (IR-Annual, 2026-03-10):
„Our ambition for 2030 is to achieve an 8% to 10% operating return on sales.“ – Oliver Blume, Chairman of the Board of Management 3
„In 2026, we will continue our journey – together and with a sense of determination. Our focus is clear: strong products, impressive technologies and consistent work on enhancing our competitiveness.“ – Oliver Blume, Chairman of the Board of Management 3

Net profit · 2026-H13,103€m−30.7 % vs. 2025-H1

Revenue trend
Guidance
For FY2026, the company guides Revenue growth (YoY) to –3.0% to 0% (cut); Deliveries to Volkswagen Group customers to -7.0% to -3.0% (cut); Sales revenue - Volkswagen Group to -3.0% to 0% (cut). 5.
Profitability
In Q2 2026, operating income was 3,469 million and net income was 1,538 million 115. For H1 2026, consolidated earnings before tax decreased to €4.773 billion from €6.423 billion, and earnings after tax declined to €3.1 billion from €4.5 billion 5. SEAT/CUPRA reported an improved H1 operating result of €122 million compared to €38 million in the prior-year period, attributable to cost optimization and tariff exemptions 5.
Leverage
The Automotive Division's net liquidity remained solid at €32.7 billion in H1 2026, with the Automotive Division net cash flow improving to €3.2 billion from negative €1.4 billion 5. Cash at the end of Q2 2026 stood at 40,538 million 115. H1 2026 cash flows from operating activities improved to €5.9 billion from €3.3 billion, with dividend payments of €2.7 billion distributed to shareholders of Volkswagen AG, Porsche AG, and TRATON SE in June 5.
Management view
Volkswagen revised its full-year sales revenue guidance to a decline of 3.0% to 0% for the Group and 4.0% to 2.0% for the Passenger Cars segment, with delivery guidance adjusted to a decline of 7.0% to 3.0% due to market conditions, particularly in China 5. The Group is reshaping its portfolio through divestitures of certain holdings and targeted equity investments, including the increase in the Rivian stake and the planned expansion of the Green Mobility Holding position 5. TRATON separately initiated the sale of a further 2.0% of its Sinotruk shares, with expected proceeds of €0.2 billion and a potential gain exceeding €1 billion anticipated in H2 2026 5.
Change
Group deliveries declined 6.3% to 4.1 million vehicles year-on-year, driven by significant declines in North America and Asia-Pacific, while all-electric vehicle deliveries decreased 5.8% to 438,463 units amid an overall BEV market decline 5. The H1 operating result was impacted by €0.5 billion in expenses from the discontinuation of ID.4 production at the Chattanooga, USA site as of mid-April 2026 and negative mix effects 5. Škoda unit sales increased 8.2% to 629 thousand vehicles, representing a volume increase against the broader delivery decline across the Group 5.
Risks (current)
Significant market volume declines in China are expected to continue weighing on deliveries, and the expiration of EV subsidies in North America is reducing sales volumes, as reflected in the downward revision of full-year guidance 5. The fiercely competitive worldwide automotive landscape, particularly in China, combined with volatile commodity, energy, and foreign exchange markets and supply chain disruption risks, present ongoing headwinds 5. Geopolitical uncertainty including escalation in the Middle East carries unreliable impact estimates on KPI projections; a Brazilian consumer class action involving approximately 67,000 Amarok vehicles was concluded after the Superior Court rejected the plaintiff appeal, and a Korean competition authority terminated its investigation into suspected cartel activity among European, Japanese, and Korean manufacturers regarding ELV recycling services 5.
New this reporting period
In April 2026, Volkswagen invested an additional USD 1 billion in Rivian, increasing its equity interest to 15.9%, and separately entered into an agreement for the sale of its shareholdings in Rimac Group and Bugatti 5. Volkswagen agreed to acquire an additional 27% stake in Green Mobility Holding (the parent of Europcar) for approximately €1 billion, an arrangement planned for 2027 that would bring the total stake to 93% 5. On June 24, 2026, Volkswagen entered into an arrangement with Bain Capital for the divestiture of a 51% stake in Everllence SE, with an expected cash inflow of approximately €7.4 billion targeting completion by December 31, 2026 5.

Discontinuation of ID.4 production at Chattanooga from mid-April 2026 indicates a scaling-back of certain North American EV output 5
Earnings and guidance
Operating income of 3,469 in 2026-Q2 was lower than 3,834 a year earlier and net income of 1,538 was below 2,291, alongside a cut to guidance 115

Revenue by Type (as of 2026-H1 · EURm · 12/14)#

Revenue split by segment or product type, exactly as the company itself reports it. The basis is stated next to each value (3, 6 or 12 months); segment totals can deviate from group revenue (reconciliation/consolidation items). If the company changes its segment structure, older structures are kept in the expandable part. Rows in grey are no longer reported separately by the company; they show the last available figures and are never extrapolated.

Reported KPIs (as disclosed) (367)#

Figures the company discloses itself in addition to the standard financials; order intake, recurring revenue, user or unit counts, adjusted measures. These “story KPIs” usually slip through standard databases; here they are collected as reported, with no calculation of our own. Important: the definition comes from the company itself and can differ from firm to firm; period and source are stated next to every value.

Company-specific KPIs verbatim from the filings (English, as disclosed; not normalised). Balance-sheet and boilerplate items filtered.

Development#

A condensed summary per reporting period as running text: what changed operationally, which drivers management names, how earnings and cash flow developed. Most recent period first, grouped by year; each text is written from the original report of that period, superscript numbers lead to the source.

FY2026

In the first half of 2026, Volkswagen Group recorded group sales revenue of 75,658 in Q1 and 82,444 in Q2, while group deliveries declined 6.3% year-on-year to 4.1 million vehicles, driven by significant volume declines in North America and Asia-Pacific 5. The H1 group operating result fell to €5.9 billion from €6.7 billion, impacted by €0.5 billion in expenses from the discontinuation of ID.4 production at the Chattanooga site and negative mix effects; earnings before tax declined to €4.8 billion from €6.4 billion, and earnings after tax to €3.1 billion from €4.5 billion 5. On the strategic front, Volkswagen invested an additional USD 1 billion in Rivian in April 2026, raising its equity interest to 15.9%, and on June 24, 2026 entered an arrangement with Bain Capital to sell a 51% stake in Everllence targeting approximately €7.4 billion in cash inflow by December 31, 2026 5. Volkswagen also agreed to acquire a further 27% of Green Mobility Holding, the Europcar parent, for approximately €1 billion planned for 2027, which would bring its stake to 93% 5. Full-year guidance was revised, with group deliveries now expected to decline 7.0% to 3.0% and group sales revenue to decline 3.0% to 0%, citing significant market volume declines in China 5.

FY2025

Volkswagen Group reported full-year 2025 sales revenue of 321,913 million, broadly stable with the prior-year level, while operating profit declined significantly to 8,868 million from €19,060 million in 2024, primarily due to non-cash impairment losses at Porsche (€2.7 billion goodwill impairment and €2.0 billion on capitalized project costs) and US import tariff costs of €2.9 billion 3. Operating return on sales fell to 2.8% from 5.9% in the prior year, with gross margin declining to 15.9% from 18.3% due to higher material costs and adverse tariff and exchange rate effects 3. Net income for the year was 6,904 million, with diluted earnings per share of 13.29 3. Group free cash flow was -9,337 million as capital expenditure of 24,346 million exceeded operating cash flow of 15,009 million, while Automotive Division net cash flow increased to €6.4 billion and year-end net liquidity in that division stood at approximately €34.5 billion 3.

FY2024

Volkswagen Group achieved sales revenue of 324,656 million in fiscal year 2024, up 0.7% year-on-year 2, as global vehicle deliveries fell 2.3% to 9.0 million units compared to the prior year 2. The operating result of 19,060 million was 15.4% below the prior-year figure, primarily reflecting €3.0 billion in restructuring charges at Volkswagen AG and Audi Group as well as negative mix and pricing effects 2. Group net income was 12,394 million, with diluted earnings per ordinary share at 21.36 2. Group free cash flow was -51 million as the Automotive Division's operating free cash flow declined to €5.0 billion from €10.7 billion, with the cash conversion rate falling to 31.4% from 57.1% 2. Key events of the year included the November 2024 formation of a joint venture with Rivian for software-defined vehicle architectures, a €661 million non-cash write-down following Northvolt AB's bankruptcy filing, and a December 2024 collective bargaining agreement creating conditions for €1.5 billion in annual labor cost savings through 2030 2.

FY2023

Volkswagen Group reported sales revenue of 322,284 million in FY2023, up 15.5% from the prior year, driven by 9.2 million vehicle deliveries (up 11.8%), improved price positioning, and favorable mix, partially offset by exchange rate effects 1. The operating result of 22,528 million was largely flat year-over-year, as volume and pricing gains were offset by higher product costs and unfavorable derivative fair value measurements, while the operating return on sales declined to 7.0% from 7.9% in 2022 1. Net income rose to 17,861 million and diluted earnings per share reached 31.79 1. The Automotive Division net cash flow more than doubled year-over-year to €10.7 billion on stronger-than-expected inventory reduction, with Automotive Division net liquidity at €40.3 billion at year-end, at the upper end of the expected range 1. Key strategic actions included the acquisition of a 4.99% stake in XPeng Inc. for USD 706 million, the establishment of the CARIZON joint venture with Horizon Robotics for autonomous driving in China, and the completed divestiture of Russian operations in May 2023 1.

Glossary#

  • Revenue: Revenue from contracts with customers, net of sales deductions, as the company itself reports it; not total output, gross revenue, GMV or order intake.
  • Op. income: The operating line of the income statement; EBIT only as a marked fallback, never pre-tax or ordinary income.
  • Net income: Net income attributable to the shareholders of the parent, after discontinued operations; not the result including minority interests, not comprehensive income.
  • EPS: Diluted earnings per share attributable to the shareholders of the parent; a printed figure always beats a calculated one, calculated values are marked.
  • FCF: Free cash flow = operating cash flow minus capital expenditure on property, plant and equipment; the company's own free cash flow figure is shown separately.
  • OCF: Cash flow from operating activities as reported; IFRS companies may show interest paid in financing cash flow, so the figure is not always comparable.
  • Cash: Cash and cash equivalents, without securities unless the company reports them as part of the position.
  • Net Debt: Net debt = financial debt excluding lease liabilities minus cash at the same reporting date; the company's own net position may differ.
  • *: derived, the formula is in the hover
  • ≈: calculated, approximation
  • ~: uncertain; the value stays visible, verdicts do not use it
  • °: repaired by a targeted query against the document, or curated with documentary evidence
  • EBIT: EBIT as a fallback: the income statement carries no operating line
  • basic: basic earnings per share as a fallback when diluted is missing
