- NA: Freight, locomotives and AM decreased due to lower transport volumes, leading to lower utilization of existing vehicles and lower demand
- APAC: Impact by COVID-19 particularly in China (earlier than other countries in APAC), leading to OE delays and lower AM demand by operators
- EU: On similar OI level in Q1/20 vs. Q1/19
- Tough comparable financial figures: strong OI in Q4/19 due to timing of tender awards led to balanced OI in Q1/20

RVS - POSITIVE LONG TERM TREND IN RAIL IS UNCHANGED
Strong order book with more than € 1.2bn in manufacturing projects that provide long-term revenue visibility and ensure industrial activity for the period 2020-2024.
Customer commitment to the continuity of ongoing manufacturing projects.
Talgo
OE business
▪ | No cancellations, but selective tender process shifts |
▪ | Temporarily closed customer plants nearly all |
reopened |
Order backlog of USD 33.1bn in transportation. Gradual recovering in the second half of the year.
Bombardier
With some 151m passengers DB Long- Distance set a new passenger record
in 2019 (+1.9%yoy). New capital expenditures rose by 41% to € 5.6bn in 2019. DB' aim is to substantially increase the performance of rail in Germany.
Deutsche Bahn
Siemens Mobility, an integral part of Siemens AG, was
largely able to steer clear of the effects of the coronavirus crisis in Q2. Despitepandemic-related
restrictions limiting access to customer locations, Siemens Mobility continued to successfully execute its projects. Resilient performance supported by high order backlog of € 32bn.
Siemens Mobility
▪Temporary lower utilization of trains unlikely to |
impact positive long term trend of rail mobility |
▪China:1) COVID-19 impact in Feb., but V-shape |
recovery beginning in Mar. 2) Support by market |
demand and governmental stimuli |
▪Europe:1) COVID-19 impact in Q2/20 expected 2) |
Governmental support in many countries 3) |
Investments in eco-friendly mobility continues |
▪NA:1) COVID-19 impact in Q2/20 expected 2) Lower |
demand in Freight for longer expected, but limited |
Strong rail market fundamentals driven by sustainable transport needs. No cancellation of orders in backlog. Resilient market mid-term.Objective of a 5% average annual growth rate of sales over the period2019/20-2022/23should be slightly impacted
from temporary tender activity slowdown.

- Train availability improving, utilization low
- OE contracts include age limits of components
Knorr-Bremse AG 14
CVS - CONTENT PER VEHICLE AND AM MITIGATED COVID-19 IMPACT
- Cautious regarding the demand recovery even after the end of production lockdowns 2) U.S. and Europe demand would not recover similar to China
- The new normalin the U.S. and Europe could be 20% below previous levels.
Volvo/ MS
OE business
▪ | Nearly all customer plants are open again |
▪ | Support from content per vehicle growth continues |
As market conditions improve throughout the year, we have confidence that the company is positioned to build upon its quarter performance and take advantage of what we expect to be a stronger
second half. | Navistar |
Across all industries, we expect to increase the rate of production from May
onwards and perhaps we will be able to return to normal levels in June or July.
Daimler Trucks/ Handelsblatt
The effects of the corona pandemic have forced us to reconsider our investment priorities and research and development projects. And we are bracing ourselves for a substantial decline in both sales revenue and operating profit in the second quarter. All key figures will be negatively
impacted. Traton
▪EU:1) Slow down of TPR after many years of strong |
growth as expected 2) Clear impact by COVID-19 |
started end of March and first signs of recovery on a |
lower level |
▪NA:1) Normalization of TPR after many years of |
strong growth as expected 2) Strong COVID-19 |
impact started in Q2/20 and lasting |
▪China:1) COVID-19 impact in Feb./Mar. 2) Apr./May |
very strong recovery 3) Additional market share gains |
Without clear forward visibility on the COVID-19 endgame, the crystal ball is particularly opaque, as the economy begins to reemerge from its medically-induced coma… Coupling an otherwise structurally sound pre-COVID economy, with strong governmental support and rising pent-up demand, there is a case for the economy to rebound into 2021.
AM business
- AM demand with high resilience (e.g. growth in Q1/20 yoy)
- Pent-updemand AM after end of lockdowns expected
