What the filing says
Autoliv announced on May 8, 2026 that it will discontinue manufacturing operations in Turkey (affecting ~2,200 employees), with complete closure expected in H1 2028. Total restructuring charges are ~$142M (~$90M recognized in Q2 2026), with expected annual pre-tax savings of $40M beginning 2027. Concurrently, the company achieved strong organic sales growth of 1.0% in Q2 (vs. -0.3% LVP) driven by 44% sales growth to Chinese OEMs (now 55% of China sales vs. 40% YoY) and 36% growth in India. Q2 adjusted operating income increased 7.3% to $270M despite $21M raw material headwinds and tariff impacts.
Why this rating
Restructuring charge of $142M is ~1.7% of $8.6B market cap—material but manageable. China OEM opportunity is strategically significant. However, near-term cash outflow limited, operating margins remain healthy at 9.6%, and 2026 guidance reiterated.
