“In this uncertain environment, the Group is pursuing competitiveness programmes and continuing to shift its production toward premium and speciality tyres, while also stepping up its expansion in high-tech materials and services and solutions.”
Outlook for 2021:
Michelin says in 2021, in a still highly uncertain environment as the health crisis unfolds, passenger car and light truck tyre markets are expected to expand by 6% to 10% during the year, truck tyre markets by between 4% and 8% and speciality markets by 8% to 12%.
In this market scenario and barring any new systemic impact from Covid-19, Michelin’s objectives are to deliver full-year segment operating income in excess of EUR2.5bn at constant exchange rates and structural free cash flow of around EUR1bn.
