Audi cuts forecast over US tariffs and restructuring costs
July 28 (Reuters) - German automaker Volkswagen's premium brand Audi lowered its full-year financial guidance on Monday, citing the impact of higher U.S. import tariffs and ongoing restructuring costs. The Ingolstadt-based company now expects revenue of between 65 billion euros and 70 billion euros ($76 billion and $82 billion), down from its previous forecast of 67.5 billion euros to 72.5 billion euros. Audi also cut its operating margin forecast to 5% to 7%, compared to the earlier range of 7% to 9%. Audi said it is still assessing the implications of the trade deal reached between the United States and the European Union on Sunday. The agreement set a 15% baseline U.S. tariff on imports from the EU, including cars, which had previously faced customs duties of 27.5%. "Should the 15% tariff stay in place long-term, it would still put Audi at a competitive disadvantage, because its key peers have a more pronounced U.S. production footprint," said Fabio Hoelscher, an analyst from Warburg Research. Audi is among the carmakers most exposed to U.S. tariffs as it has no manufacturing facilities in the United States. Although the deal provides clarity on the new tariff regime, enabling better operational and strategic planning, the 15% rate still represents a structural shift from the 2.5% rate before U.S. President Donald Trump took office, said Pal Skirta, equity analyst from Metzler Equities. That leaves German carmakers facing persistently higher U.S. tariffs on their exports and long-term competitiveness challenges, he said. The Volkswagen Group also cut its full-year guidance on Friday after taking a $1.5-billion tariff hit in the first half of 2025. Global automakers have booked billions of dollars of losses and some issued profit warnings due to U.S. import tariffs. The European industry is also facing stiffening competition from China, and domestic regulations aimed at speeding up the electric-vehicle transition. ($1 = 0.8535 euros)

Tributes to 'loving' YFC member who died in A40 car crash
TRIBUTES have been paid to a teenager who was killed in a car crash on her way home to Pembrokeshire from the Royal Welsh Show last week. Sally Allen's 'big beaming smile would light up the room', while she was also described as a 'friend to everyone, young or old' by her local Young Farmers Club (YFC). Sally, 18, died at the scene of a road traffic collision involving a red Renault Clio and Blue Audi Q5 on the A40 at Broadoak, between Carmarthen and Llandeilo, at 8am on Wednesday, July 23. Martletwy YFC, of which Sally was a member, said it was 'heartbroken' at news of her death. 'Sally's family are heavily involved in our club, with brother William and sister Issie also being active members,' said the club, in a heartwarming tribute on its Facebook page. 'Sally's mum Kate is an active leader and her dad Richard an ever present helper. 'Sally was the warmest, most loving person and with her big beaming smile she would light up the room. 'She was always very generous with her hugs and free with her advice. She was a friend to everyone, young or old. 'She spent her last night at the show with her friends in the members tent, dancing the night away with a croc on one foot and a trainer on the other, that was just Sal. 'We would like to pass on our deepest condolences to Sally's family and to her wide circle of friends outside YFC. 'We will be with you to support along the way, we're working closely with DPJ and Sandybear, so if anyone feels they need to talk please don't hesitate to contact our club. 'We express our thanks to these charities and the wider YFC family for their support at this difficult time. Fly high beautiful girl.' In a statement, her family said they were both devastated and in shock, adding that Sally was 'endlessly caring, unintentionally hilarious and the most amazing, supportive and joyful person'. 'In only 18 years of her life, she touched the hearts of so many people within her community, her school, her work and social life,' they said. A huge lover of horses, Sally was said to have found happiness at Martletwy YFC, the family said. 'Sally was a much-loved sister to William and Issie, and a treasured daughter of Richard and Kate,' said the Allen family, who added that she was a beloved granddaughter and loved by all her aunties, uncles and cousins. 'She had a large number of friends and was very popular with everyone who knew her,' they said. 'Since her death it has become apparent how much Sally was loved and cherished. Her sudden absence leaves an unfillable space in the lives so many people that knew and loved her.' Sally was from Cresswell Quay, Kilgetty, near Tenby, and was a former pupil at the town's Ysgol Greenhill. A Eucharist service for Sally was due to be held in Jeffreyston Church, near her home, at 10.30am on Saturday morning, July 26. Dyfed Powys Police is appealing for witnesses following the fatal collision. A spokesperson for the force said: 'Sadly, the female driver of the Renault passed away at the scene. Their next of kin have been informed and are being supported by specialist officers. 'The occupants of the other vehicle were taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.'
