The German multinational auto parts manufacturer adjusted the outlook for the adjusted margin of its tires business upwards to 12.5-13.5% from 12-13% previously, as higher pricing compensated for a decline in North America and Europe.

"We still have significant ground to gain in the fourth quarter," Chief Financial Officer Katja Garcia Vila, formerly Dürrfeld, said.
