Positive Points Forvia SE (FURCF) reported an increase in operating margin by 20 basis points to 5.4%, supported by strict cost control and effective tariff mitigation. The company achieved significant net cash flow improvement, reaching EUR418 million, driven by stronger EBITDA and reduced CapEx. Forvia SE (FURCF) reduced its net debt by almost EUR200 million, lowering the leverage ratio to 1.8 times.

The Electronics business recorded strong commercial success, representing 34% of the order intake, with significant orders in zone controllers and battery management systems. Negative Points Forvia SE (FURCF) posted a net loss of EUR269 million in H1, primarily due to a non-cash charge related to SYMBIO and high restructuring charges. The company experienced a 0.4% decline in reported sales due to negative currency effects, impacting revenues by 1.5%. Organic growth of 1.1% represented an underperformance of 2 points compared to global automotive production. The Interiors division faced operational challenges in North America, impacting profitability.

Q & A Highlights Q: Can you discuss the sustainability of the impressive CapEx decline and what you are targeting for the second half of the year? A: Martin Fischer, CEO: We have worked on CapEx and R&D very carefully, achieving true reductions in gross R&D and maintaining a strict regime on CapEx. Some program delays helped hold CapEx back in H1. We expect to maintain good discipline in H2, but the reduction might not be as significant as in H1.

Q: Can you comment on the plan to improve the profitability of the Interior division? A: Martin Fischer, CEO: We have seen improvements but need to address operational challenges in North America. We are reinforcing teams and leadership, focusing on becoming more locally adapted, and implementing the FORVIA Excellence System to drive improvements. Q: What are your goals for gross debt reduction and ideal cash balance in the intermediate term? A: Olivier Durand, CFO: Our objective is to be below 1.5 times leverage by the end of 2026, with a midterm goal of EUR3.5 billion in gross cash. We aim for investment-grade eligibility, targeting a leverage ratio around 1.2 times. Q: How do you plan to improve the outperformance of the business in China? A: Martin Fischer, CEO: We have a strong local team empowered to cater to customer needs, focusing on cost efficiency and innovation. We aim to be first to market with new products, leveraging local competencies and speed to market. Q: Can you update on the factoring program for this year and next? A: Olivier Durand, CFO: We are committed to keeping factoring below EUR1.3 billion, which is a cap we have maintained since acquiring HELLA. This is one of our funding sources, and we monitor its cost and value closely. Q: With better-than-expected free cash flow in H1, why not increase the full-year guidance? A: Olivier Durand, CFO: We confirm our guidance to be above last year's EUR655 million. While H1 results are encouraging, we must consider potential volume declines and increased restructuring in H2.

China's soymeal glut raises demand doubts ahead of US soybean export season
By Ella Cao and Naveen Thukral BEIJING/SINGAPORE (Reuters) -China's appetite for soybeans is likely to weaken during the peak U.S. marketing season later this year, as record imports earlier in 2025 and tepid demand from animal feed producers have pushed up soymeal inventories at home, trade sources said. The world's biggest soybean importer has yet to book U.S. cargoes for the fourth quarter, with traders closely monitoring talks in Stockholm aimed at resolving longstanding economic disputes at the centre of the U.S.-China trade war. A slowdown in Chinese demand could pressure Chicago soybean futures, which are already down for a second consecutive week on expectations of a bumper U.S. harvest. [GRA/] China's soymeal futures fell for a fourth straight session on Tuesday amid ample supplies. In the physical market, spot soymeal in north China was quoted at 2,925 yuan ($408) per metric ton, down 6.5% from 3,130 yuan a year ago, said Wang Wenshen, an analyst at Shandong province-based consultancy Sublime China Information. "If third-quarter prices stay weak and crushers face losses, fourth-quarter soybean purchases may fall short of expectations," Wang said. The last quarter of the year is typically the main U.S. soybean marketing season. China's overall soybean imports hit a record high in May and their second-highest level in June, boosting oilseed processing and leading to a buildup in soymeal inventories, traders said. CRUSHER SHUTDOWNS The surplus is straining China's crushing plants, with some already shutting down due to storage constraints. "Small-scale shutdowns have already begun at crushing plants in regions like south China primarily because soybean meal has accumulated with no room for more stock," said a Shanghai-based trader, adding that a broader suspension was "highly likely". Crush margins in Rizhao, China's main processing hub, have been negative since mid-May. The glut has been worsened by weak demand from animal feed producers amid sluggish meat consumption in the world's top pork market. Crushers will face "huge soymeal stock pressure" over the next one to two months, said Cheang Kang Wei, vice president at StoneX in Singapore. Authorities have pledged to cut breeding sow numbers, curb new capacity, and reduce soymeal use in feed to stabilise meat prices after steep declines this year, measures analysts say will further limit soymeal consumption. China's purchases of Argentine soymeal, amid high tariffs of U.S. beans, in the last few weeks are likely to add to the glut. "Even with such big supply of soymeal in the local market, it is profitable to import meal from Argentina," said a Singapore-based trader at an international trading company. "This will only add to the stocks of soymeal." A trade deal with Washington could shift buying patterns. "If a trade deal is reached, Chinese buyers could resume U.S. purchases for the fourth quarter, as prices are favourable without tariffs," said Johnny Xiang, founder of Beijing-based AgRadar Consulting.
