The company’s net sales for the April–June period rose to 379.9 million euros, a 10.6% increase compared to the same quarter last year. This growth surpassed market performance across all regions, with the Passenger Car Tyres segment serving as the primary engine for the improved financial results. Meanwhile, the Heavy Tyres division returned to growth while maintaining stable profitability despite challenging conditions.

CEO Paolo Pompei noted that the quarterly performance aligns with the firm’s strategic shift to prioritize premium positioning. While manufacturing and material costs have trended downward, the company continues to manage inflationary pressures within its Vianor service centers. Looking ahead, Nokian Tyres maintains its guidance for the full year, anticipating net sales growth and an operating profit margin between 8% and 10%, provided that geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and global trade uncertainties do not escalate further.
