Magna International (MG) reported a sales increase in its recent financial results release for Q2 2022.

Sales were $9.4 billion, an increase of 4 per cent over Q2 2021, as global light vehicle production increased 2 per cent, largely driven by a 14 per cent increase in North America.

Consumer confidence is one of the biggest drivers of Magna’s business. The company added that sales may be impacted by consumer perceptions and general trends related to the job, housing, and stock markets, as well as other macroeconomic and political factors. 

While the company has increased its sales outlook to $37.6 – $39.2 billion, it also admitted that adjusted diluted earnings per share decreased 41 per cent.
