Continental is a leading tire manufacturer and industry specialist that develops and produces sustainable, safe and convenient solutions for automotive manufacturers as well as industrial and end customers worldwide.
The Continental group sector ContiTech has reached an agreement with employee representatives on key workforce measures for Germany related to the cost‑saving program announced in November 2025. The agreement (German: Interessenausgleich, reconciliation of interests) defines the conditions for the reduction of around 1,600 in Germany. Some of the affected activities will be relocated to countries with more competitive cost structures.
Continental started 2026 with a good first quarter. The Tires and ContiTech group sectors both increased their adjusted EBIT margins compared with the same quarter of last year, despite burdens from tariffs and exchange-rate effects. Adjusted free cash flow was also up year-on-year. By contrast, the economic environment and weak global markets hampered sales growth. Even against the backdrop of current geopolitical developments, the DAX-listed company has confirmed its full-year outlook. For 2026, Continental still expects consolidated sales of around €17.3 billion to €18.9 billion and an adjusted EBIT margin of around 11.0 to 12.5 percent.
Sabrina Soussan (56) took over as chair of the Supervisory Board of Continental AG on April 30, 2026. At its constituent meeting immediately following the 2026 Annual Shareholders’ Meeting, the Supervisory Board unanimously elected her as its chair.
