Third-Quarter Performance Exceeds Expectations
Luxury sports car manufacturer Ferrari announced a 5% increase in third-quarter core earnings on Tuesday, driven by robust pricing power and strong demand for models like the SF90 XX and 12Cilindri lines. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) reached €670 million (approximately $726 million USD as of November 4, 2023) for the July to September period, surpassing analyst consensus estimates of €649 million.
The positive results spurred a 1.8% increase in milan-listed Ferrari shares by 12:10 pm GMT, reversing earlier losses. This rebound suggests investor confidence in the company’s continued ability to deliver strong financial performance.
personalization Drives Revenue Growth
Beyond vehicle sales, increased personalization options - bespoke features and customizations requested by clients – significantly contributed to the strong quarterly results.While vehicle shipments remained relatively stable at 3,401 units, the higher revenue generated from these individualized orders boosted overall profitability.
2025 and Long-Term Outlook
Ferrari reaffirmed its full-year forecasts,having slightly improved them last month alongside the presentation of a new long-term business plan. The company projects net revenue of at least €7.1 billion (approximately $7.7 billion USD) and adjusted EBITDA of at least €2.72 billion (approximately $2.95 billion USD) for 2025.
However, investor reaction to Ferrari’s longer-term financial targets, unveiled on October 9th, had previously caused a nearly 20% decline in share value. Analysts viewed the 2030 guidance of approximately €9 billion in net revenue and at least €3.6 billion in adjusted EBITDA as conservative, indicating a potential for greater growth.
