will discount such a profitability mix. Over the medium term, we continue to see most

sales growth drivers (sales to partners, international operations, electrifying Dacia, etc)

as profitability margin dilutive. For further details, please refer to our detailed report and

Autoliv partners with Great Wall Motor for global

expansion

Autoliv announced a new Global Strategic Cooperation Framework Agreement with

Great Wall Motor (GWM), expanding the partnership established in 2023. The

agreement is aimed at supporting GWM’s international expansion and increasing

cooperation in areas such as global business development, supply chain coordination,

localized operations, integrated safety systems and sustainability. Both companies

highlighted closer alignment on innovation, product strategy and long-term growth.

Our view: Autoliv and GWM have already been working together for several years, and

the release does not include any new business awards, financial commitments or volume

targets. That said, the agreement reinforces Autoliv’s position with one of China’s

leading OEMs and highlights its ability to participate in the global expansion of Chinese

automakers, an increasingly important source of industry growth. While the near-term

earnings impact should be limited, the partnership could support future content and

market-share opportunities as GWM expands internationally. Overall, positive for the

long-term strategic outlook but unlikely to move earnings in the near term.

Earnings/Share price impact: Positive for sentiment.
