KTM:  In 2018, European motorcycle producer KTM heads for its 8th record year in a row. In 2018 KTM gained disproportionately in market share in the key markets and outperformed the market in both Europe and North America. In Europe the market grew by about 7 % last year – mainly driven by Germany, France and Italy; KTM has increased the registrations in the same period by more than 20 %. In the overall declining US market (minus 2 %) KTM increased the registrations by more than 10 %. Thus, both in Europe and in the USA substantial increases in market share have been achieved. In 2019, KTM expects a consolidation of the European motorcycle market. With respect to the US market, KTM expects a further market decline. Due to the increasing volatility of the global economic and political environment, KTM is focusing on increasing efficiency and productivity over the next two years. This is considered as the basis in order to play a strong role during the expected consolidation of the industry. It is the aim to keep EBIT margin and to increase the free cash flow potential to 3-5% of the sales (p.a.).
KTM Industries: weekly performance: -8.14%
