25.06.25 15:23:56 Foxconn nears deal to supply electric buses to Mitsubishi Fuso, Nikkei reports
(Reuters) -Foxconn is nearing a deal to supply electric buses to Japanese commercial automaker Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus, Japan's Nikkei newspaper reported on Thursday, citing a source close to the Taiwanese chipmaker.

Mitsubishi Fuso, owned by Daimler Truck, plans to sell the Model T bus and Model U microbus, both developed by Foxconn, under its own brand, the report said.

Mitsubishi Fuso and Foxconn are looking to create a new company to oversee the buses, according to the report.

The Taiwanese chipmaker said in a briefing in April it intends to roll out the Model T and Model U buses in Japan in 2027.

Foxconn did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

Daimler Truck declined to comment on the report.

17.06.25 06:36:33 Volvo Group, Daimler look to technology joint venture in bid to save costs
GOTHENBURG (Reuters) -European truckmaking rivals AB Volvo and Daimler Truck hope to cut costs and reduce reliance on suppliers by jointly developing a software-defined vehicle program, they said on Tuesday.

Fleets and truck manufacturers, like automakers, have been racing to produce technology-packed vehicles while also grappling with the need to reduce costs.

Truckmakers are currently heavily reliant on suppliers because their software is closely tied to hardware, but Daimler and Volvo's new business - called Coretura - aims to develop a software-defined vehicle platform and reduce that dependence.

The companies are looking to create an "industry standard", Daimler Trucks CEO Karin Radstrom told reporters.

"We're looking at how we can move from our current reality where we are very much dependent on our suppliers - which drives both cost and sometimes timelines - and instead looking at what's the next generation of software that we need to bring to the vehicle", Radstrom said.

The Gothenburg-based venture will employ 50 employees to start, with the hope of first deliveries of its connectivity platform in 2027 and further deliveries towards the end of the decade.

"Everything in the vehicle industry is very much oriented around software and controlled by software", said Johan Lunden, a Volvo veteran and the newly appointed CEO of Coretura.

Software will play an increasingly vital role in achieving sustainability, productivity, and safety targets in the future, he added.

While rivals, Volvo Group and Daimler have collaborated on various businesses in recent years, such as within charging and hydrogen fuel cell development.

12.04.25 08:47:42 Daimler Truck Holding (ETR:DTG) Has Announced A Dividend Of €1.90
Daimler Truck Holding AG (ETR:DTG) has announced that it will pay a dividend of €1.90 per share on the 2nd of June. This means the annual payment is 5.9% of the current stock price, which is above the average for the industry.

AI is about to change healthcare. These 20 stocks are working on everything from early diagnostics to drug discovery. The best part - they are all under $10bn in marketcap - there is still time to get in early.

Daimler Truck Holding's Payment Could Potentially Have Solid Earnings Coverage

A big dividend yield for a few years doesn't mean much if it can't be sustained. Before making this announcement, Daimler Truck Holding was earning enough to cover the dividend, but it wasn't generating any free cash flows. In general, we consider cash flow to be more important than earnings, so we would be cautious about relying on the sustainability of this dividend.

The next year is set to see EPS grow by 47.6%. If the dividend continues on this path, the payout ratio could be 35% by next year, which we think can be pretty sustainable going forward.XTRA:DTG Historic Dividend April 12th 2025

Daimler Truck Holding Doesn't Have A Long Payment History

The company has maintained a consistent dividend for a few years now, but we would like to see a longer track record before relying on it. Since 2023, the dividend has gone from €1.30 total annually to €1.90. This means that it has been growing its distributions at 21% per annum over that time. We're not overly excited about the relatively short history of dividend payments, however the dividend is growing at a nice rate and we might take a closer look.

The Dividend Looks Likely To Grow

Investors could be attracted to the stock based on the quality of its payment history. We are encouraged to see that Daimler Truck Holding has grown earnings per share at 12% per year over the past five years. The lack of cash flows does make us a bit cautious though, especially when it comes to the future of the dividend.

Our Thoughts On Daimler Truck Holding's Dividend

Overall, it's nice to see a consistent dividend payment, but we think that longer term, the current level of payment might be unsustainable. While Daimler Truck Holding is earning enough to cover the payments, the cash flows are lacking. We would be a touch cautious of relying on this stock primarily for the dividend income.

Companies possessing a stable dividend policy will likely enjoy greater investor interest than those suffering from a more inconsistent approach. Meanwhile, despite the importance of dividend payments, they are not the only factors our readers should know when assessing a company. To that end, Daimler Truck Holding has 2 warning signs (and 1 which is a bit unpleasant) we think you should know about. If you are a dividend investor, you might also want to look at our curated list of high yield dividend stocks.

Daimler Truck Holding's Future Dividend Projections Appear Well Covered By Earnings

Impressive dividend yields are good, but this doesn't matter much if the payments can't be sustained. Before making this announcement, Daimler Truck Holding was earning enough to cover the dividend, but it wasn't generating any free cash flows. Since a dividend means the company is paying out cash to investors, this could prove to be a problem in the future.

Over the next year, EPS is forecast to expand by 51.9%. Assuming the dividend continues along recent trends, we think the payout ratio could be 34% by next year, which is in a pretty sustainable range.XTRA:DTG Historic Dividend March 29th 2025

Daimler Truck Holding Is Still Building Its Track Record

The dividend has been pretty stable looking back, but the company hasn't been paying one for very long. This makes it tough to judge how it would fare through a full economic cycle. Since 2023, the dividend has gone from €1.30 total annually to €1.90. This implies that the company grew its distributions at a yearly rate of about 21% over that duration. We're not overly excited about the relatively short history of dividend payments, however the dividend is growing at a nice rate and we might take a closer look.

The Dividend Looks Likely To Grow

Investors who have held shares in the company for the past few years will be happy with the dividend income they have received. We are encouraged to see that Daimler Truck Holding has grown earnings per share at 12% per year over the past five years. The company is paying out a lot of its cash as a dividend, but it looks okay based on the payout ratio.

Our Thoughts On Daimler Truck Holding's Dividend

Overall, it's nice to see a consistent dividend payment, but we think that longer term, the current level of payment might be unsustainable. While the low payout ratio is a redeeming feature, this is offset by the minimal cash to cover the payments. We would probably look elsewhere for an income investment.

Investors generally tend to favour companies with a consistent, stable dividend policy as opposed to those operating an irregular one. Meanwhile, despite the importance of dividend payments, they are not the only factors our readers should know when assessing a company. To that end, Daimler Truck Holding has 2 warning signs (and 1 which is concerning) we think you should know about. If you are a dividend investor, you might also want to look at our curated list of high yield dividend stocks.

03.03.25 06:35:58 Daimler Truck Holding (ETR:DTG) Has Some Way To Go To Become A Multi-Bagger
If we want to find a potential multi-bagger, often there are underlying trends that can provide clues. Amongst other things, we'll want to see two things; firstly, a growing return on capital employed (ROCE) and secondly, an expansion in the company's amount of capital employed. This shows us that it's a compounding machine, able to continually reinvest its earnings back into the business and generate higher returns. With that in mind, the ROCE of Daimler Truck Holding (ETR:DTG) looks decent, right now, so lets see what the trend of returns can tell us.

Return On Capital Employed (ROCE): What Is It?

For those who don't know, ROCE is a measure of a company's yearly pre-tax profit (its return), relative to the capital employed in the business. To calculate this metric for Daimler Truck Holding, this is the formula:

Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities)

0.10 = €5.0b ÷ (€73b - €25b) (Based on the trailing twelve months to September 2024).

Thus, Daimler Truck Holding has an ROCE of 10%. In absolute terms, that's a pretty normal return, and it's somewhat close to the Machinery industry average of 8.9%.

Check out our latest analysis for Daimler Truck Holding XTRA:DTG Return on Capital Employed March 3rd 2025

Above you can see how the current ROCE for Daimler Truck Holding compares to its prior returns on capital, but there's only so much you can tell from the past. If you're interested, you can view the analysts predictions in our freeanalyst report for Daimler Truck Holding .

The Trend Of ROCE

The trend of ROCE doesn't stand out much, but returns on a whole are decent. Over the past five years, ROCE has remained relatively flat at around 10% and the business has deployed 52% more capital into its operations. Since 10% is a moderate ROCE though, it's good to see a business can continue to reinvest at these decent rates of return. Over long periods of time, returns like these might not be too exciting, but with consistency they can pay off in terms of share price returns.

Our Take On Daimler Truck Holding's ROCE

To sum it up, Daimler Truck Holding has simply been reinvesting capital steadily, at those decent rates of return. And long term investors would be thrilled with the 105% return they've received over the last three years. So even though the stock might be more "expensive" than it was before, we think the strong fundamentals warrant this stock for further research.

If you want to know some of the risks facing Daimler Truck Holding we've found 2 warning signs (1 shouldn't be ignored!) that you should be aware of before investing here.
