Compagnie Generale des Etablissements Michelin (ML.FR) said
Thursday that revenue rose for the first nine months of the year
and confirmed its 2019 guidance despite lowering its market
forecast for the fourth quarter.
Third-quarter revenue rose to 17.9 billion euros ($19.91
billion), up 1.3% compared with the same period last year on a
like-for-like basis, the French tire maker said. Michelin said that
its volume declined 0.8% during the period due to a
weaker-than-expected market.
Michelin confirmed its 2019 guidance but lowered its market
forecast for its fourth quarter. "Truck tire markets are expected
to weaken more quickly in the fourth quarter, to end the year down
4%," Michelin said, adding that "the full-year impact of raw
materials costs and customs duties is estimated at around a
negative EUR100 million."
