Stellantis Takes 22-Billion-Euro Hit to Speed Up EV Rollout
Stellantis disclosed a 22-billion-euro charge to overhaul its business to accelerate its electric and hybrid-vehicle rollout, blaming overestimation of the energy transition pace and prior execution issues. As part of a reset, it will pause its 2026 dividend and issue up to 5 billion euros in bonds while pursuing a large U.S. investment that will add 5,000 jobs. The company still targets mid-single-digit revenue growth and a low-single-digit margin rise in 2026, after signaling a likely 2025 net loss and noting a sharp drop in its shares.
