The Italian-American car maker on Wednesday said it posted adjusted earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) of 2.28 billion euros ($2.7 billion) in the July-September period. That topped a 1.152 billion euro forecast in an analyst poll compiled by Reuters.
“Our record results were driven by our team’s tremendous performance in North America,” Chief Executive Mike Manley said in a statement.
Milan-listed shares in FCA trimmed earlier losses after the results were released. By 1110 GMT they were down 3%.
FCA, which earlier this year withdrew its guidance for its full-year results, said it now forecast a 3-3.5 billion euro adjusted EBIT in 2020, but added that the new guidance was not assuming further significant disruptions from COVID-19.
