 Aptiv shares rise as Q2 revenue tops expectations, guidance lifted

SCHAFFHAUSEN, Switzerland - On Thursday, Aptiv PLC (NYSE:APTV) reported second-quarter revenue that exceeded analyst expectations and raised its full-year outlook, despite a slight earnings miss.

The global technology company saw its shares climb 2.02% in pre-market trading after the results.

The automotive technology supplier posted revenue of $5.2 billion for the second quarter, surpassing the consensus estimate of $5.05 billion and representing a 3% increase YoY. However, adjusted earnings per share came in at $1.70, missing analyst expectations of $1.80. The company’s revenue growth was driven by a 4% increase in Asia (despite a 1% decline in China), 3% growth in North America, and 3% growth in South America, partially offset by a 1% decline in Europe.

"We delivered record financial results in the second quarter, a testament to our efforts to build a resilient business model that allows us to operate efficiently, even in dynamic environments," said Kevin Clark, chair and chief executive officer.

Aptiv’s adjusted operating income margin improved to 12.1% from 12.0% in the prior year period, which the company attributed to improved operating performance and benefits from cost reduction initiatives.

Looking ahead, Aptiv raised its full-year 2025 guidance, now expecting revenue between $20 billion and $20.3 billion, above the consensus of $19.83 billion. The company also lifted its full-year adjusted EPS forecast to a range of $7.30 to $7.60, compared to analyst expectations of $7.24.

For the third quarter, Aptiv projects revenue between $4.95 billion and $5.1 billion, in line with the consensus of $4.96 billion, though its EPS guidance of $1.60 to $1.80 falls slightly below the $1.84 analyst estimate.

The company generated $510 million in cash from operations during the quarter, down from $643 million in the prior year period. Aptiv had $1.4 billion in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, with total available liquidity of $4.0 billion.
