In the first quarter of 2024, the TRATON GROUP generated sales revenue of 
€11.8  billion (3M  2023: €11.2  billion), 5% higher year-on-year despite a 4% 
 decline in unit sales. Operating result (adjusted) was €1.1  billion (3M  2023: 
€0.9 billion), while operating return on sales (adjusted) increased by 1.0 per -
centage points, from 8.4% to 9.4%.  
The Executive Board and the Supervisory Board of TRATON SE decided in 
 February to strengthen Group-wide research and development as well as 
brand-specific development. To do this, significant parts of the research and 
development departments of the individual brands will be merged into a 
cross-brand organization. This new structure will further drive forward the 
 development of the TRATON Modular System with the aim of delivering 
 sustainable, efficient, and connected transportation solutions to the market.
At its meeting in February, TRATON SE’s Supervisory Board extended the 
 contracts of TRATON GROUP Executive Board members Alexander Vlaskamp 
and Mathias Carlbaum by five years in each case until 2029.

14 Selected Financial Information
Incoming orders were down 3% overall year-on-year in the reporting period. 
This was the result of different trends at product and regional level. For 
 example, TRATON only recorded a 1% decline in incoming orders in the truck 
business. In this case, a sharp decline in order levels as demand in the EU27+3 
region returned to normal was almost offset by very buoyant market demand 
from North and South America. A particular standout was Brazil, where in-
coming orders for trucks more than doubled compared with the previous year 
due to the new emissions regulation that had come into force at that time. In 
contrast to a sharp decline in incoming orders for the MAN TGE model, there was 
good demand for buses, particularly in the EU27+3 and USA/Canada regions. 
Unit sales in the first three months were down 4% year-on-year. The 2% decline 
in the truck business is attributable to a market-driven decline in sales figures 
in the EU27+3 region, which were also impacted by a model year change at 
MAN Truck & Bus in the first quarter of 2024. As expected, unit sales of trucks 
in North America were also down on the previous year, while significantly 
more trucks were sold in South America. The primary reason for the decline in 
unit sales in the bus business was the delayed ramp-up of the new school bus 
model at Navistar . Fewer buses were also sold in South America than in the 
previous year. 
The book-to-bill ratio in the first quarter was 0.8 (3M 2023: 0.8), which resulted 
in the order backlog continuing to return to normal. 
130 (3M  2023: 91) all-electric trucks, 158 (3M  2023: 76) all-electric buses, and  
27 (3M 2023: 91) MAN eTGE models were sold in the reporting period. Addition-
ally, 35 (3M 2023: 47) hybrid trucks and 76 (3M 2023: 45) hybrid buses were sold.

Operating result
The TRATON GROUP generated sales revenue of €11.8  billion (3M  2023: 
€11.2 billion) in the reporting period, up 5% on the previous year’s level. This 
 increase is mainly attributable to a favorable product mix and better unit price 
realization in the TRATON Operations business area. The Vehicle Services 
 business made a considerable contribution to business performance, account-
ing for 19% (3M 2023: 20%) of total sales revenue. Sales revenue in the TRATON 
Financial Services segment increased by 29% due to the further expansion of 
the portfolio, reaching €453 million (3M 2023: €352 million).
The TRATON GROUP’s gross profit improved by 13% compared with the prior- 
year period in the first quarter of 2024. This increase is primarily due to con-
tinued good price management combined with an improved cost structure in 
the TRATON Operations business area. The cost structure at MAN Truck & Bus, 
in particular, was positively impacted compared with the prior-year quarter by 
the realignment program completed by the end of 2023. By contrast, lower 
 capacity utilization impacted gross profit. Gross margin increased by 1.4 percent-
age points to 21.8% (3M 2023: 20.4%) in the TRATON GROUP and by 1.6 percent-
age points to 21.5% (3M 2023: 19.9%) in the TRATON Operations business area. 
Distribution expenses in the TRATON GROUP were up €60 million and admin-
istrative expenses were up €45 million year-on-year. In both cases, the higher 
figure (by 7% and 11%, respectively) was due largely to inflation-driven cost 
  increases. The ratio of distribution and administrative expenses to sales revenue 
therefore rose by 0.3 percentage points to 11.7% (3M 2023: 11.4%).
Other operating result increased by €37 million compared with the prior-year 
quarter. The improvement is primarily attributable to the discontinuation of 
expenses of €102 million in connection with the sale of Scania Finance Russia 
in the prior-year period. Offsetting factors in the first quarter of 2024 were, in 
particular, expenses attributable to civil lawsuits against Scania and MAN in 
connection with the EU truck cases in individual countries.
The TRATON GROUP’s operating result rose by €223 million (27%) year-on-year 
as a result of the effects described above.

TRATON GROUP 49 102
 
In the current reporting period, the adjustments amounted to €49 million and 
were related to civil lawsuits against Scania and MAN as a result of the EU truck 
cases in individual countries. These were recognized in the course of the 
 updated assessment of the risks. In the prior-year period, the adjustments  
had amounted to €102 million in the TRATON Financial Services segment in 
 connection with the sale of Scania Finance Russia. The TRATON GROUP’s oper-
ating result (adjusted) therefore rose by €171 million year-on-year, equivalent 
to an increase of 18%.
The TRATON GROUP increased its operating return on sales (adjusted) by 
1.0  percentage points to 9.4% (3M  2023: 8.4%). In the TRATON Operations 
 business area, operating return on sales (adjusted) was 10.4% (3M 2023: 9.0%), 
up 1.3 percentage points year-on-year.
Financial result
The TRATON GROUP’s financial result improved by €118 million compared with 
the prior-year quarter. This increase was principally attributable to the higher 
share of earnings of the investment in Sinotruk (Hong Kong) Limited, Hong 
Kong, China (Sinotruk), which is accounted for using the equity method.  
Taxes
Income taxes amounted to €–293 million (3M 2023: €–148 million) in the first 
quarter of 2024. This corresponds to a tax rate of 28% (3M 2023: 21%). The 
higher tax rate compared with the previous year is due largely to the discon-
tinuation of offsetting effects from the recognition of loss carryforwards 
from previous years.

Scania Vehicles & Services recorded a moderate increase in incoming orders in 
the first quarter of 2024. A decline in incoming orders in Europe was more than 
offset by very strong growth in Brazil. Unit sales rose substantially, driven by 
the high order backlog, more stable supply chains, and the increase in produc-
tion volume.
Sales revenue also grew substantially year-on-year. This growth was mainly 
 attributable to the increase in the New Vehicles business in the EU27+3 and 
South America regions. In addition to the volume-related increase in sales 
 revenue, operating result (adjusted) was lifted by a positive product mix and 
lower product costs. The Vehicle Services business also made a positive contri-
bution to earnings as a result of improved margins. Higher personnel expenses 
weighed on operating result (adjusted).

MAN Truck & Bus recorded a sharp decline in incoming orders in the reporting 
period compared with the previous year. This was due in particular to weaker 
demand for trucks in the EU27+3 region. The significant year-on-year decline in 
unit sales is attributable primarily to a model year change in the first quarter of 
2024 and to catch-up effects in the comparative period. 
Sales revenue was slightly higher than in the previous year, largely because of 
an improved product mix for trucks and MAN TGE vans. A positive operating 
performance in the bus business and in the Vehicle Services business offset 
the volume-related lower operating result (adjusted) in the truck business.  
In addition, the realignment program completed by the end of 2023 had a 
 positive impact on the cost structure.

Navistar Sales & Services recorded a noticeable increase in incoming orders in 
the reporting period compared with the previous year. Incoming orders in the 
previous year were affected by restrictive order acceptance. Unit sales were 
down significantly year-on-year. This was primarily the result of the delayed 
ramp-up of unit sales of the new school bus model.
Sales revenue was also significantly lower year-on-year, primarily due to the 
decline in unit sales. In addition, sales revenue in the Vehicle Services business 
was impacted by a decline in transportation activity in the USA. In addition  
to the decline in sales revenue, operating result (adjusted) was negatively 
 impacted by ongoing supply shortages. By contrast, improved unit price reali-
zation positively impacted the result.

Volkswagen Truck & Bus recorded a moderate decline in unit sales in the re -
porting period. This was the result of a sharp decline in the unit sales of buses. 
Sales revenue was noticeably higher year-on-year. This increase was achieved 
in spite of a lower volume of unit sales and resulted primarily from improved 
product positioning and unit price realization in Brazil, which also positively 
impacted operating result (adjusted). Operating return on sales (adjusted) 
rose by 1.8 percentage points.

TRATON Financial Services is continuing to prepare to take over the activities 
of MAN Financial Services and Volkswagen Truck & Bus Financial Services.  
In addition, it drove forward the relaunch of the captive financial services pro-
vider Navistar Financial Services in the first quarter of 2024. Operating result 
(adjusted) of €63 million was €19 million lower than in the prior-year period. 
Higher costs due to the integration as well as higher refinancing and risk costs 
were not offset by a higher portfolio volume.
Earnings before tax were significantly higher year-on-year. Earnings before  
tax in the first quarter of 2023 had been impacted by negative accumulated 
other comprehensive income of €102 million from currency translation effects 
 attributable to Scania Finance Russia that were reclassified to the income 
statement at the time of disposal. As a result, return on equity rose very sharply 
year-on-year to 13.2%.

13 Report on Expected Developments
14 Selected Financial Information
The TRATON GROUP ’s net cash provided by operating activities rose by 
€11 million year-on-year to €211 million. This was primarily attributable to the 
€176 million increase in gross cash flow, which above all reflects the €223 mil-
lion increase in operating result. By contrast, cash tied up in working capital 
rose by €165 million year-on-year to €1.2 billion. This was mainly attributable to 
the increase in financial services receivables, which was €306 million higher 
than in the prior-year period.
In the first quarter of 2024, the €1.2 billion change in working capital was largely 
attributable to the €691  million increase in inventories due to the decline  
in unit sales in the TRATON Operations business area and the €697  million 
 increase in financial services receivables resulting from the expansion of busi-
ness volume in the TRATON Financial Services business area.
Net cash used in investing activities attributable to operating activities in-
creased by €171 million year-on-year to €451 million. This is mainly a result of 
the nonrecurrence of the positive prior-year effect of €96 million from the sale 
of Scania Finance Russia. This effect was the result of the purchase price 
 payment of €400  million in the TRATON Operations business area, less the 
 disposal of the cash of Scania Finance Russia of €304 million, which affected 
the TRATON Financial Services business area.

Net financial debt rose by €286 million to €19.8 billion in the first quarter of 
2024, driven mainly by the development of net cash flow described above.
To finance its activities, the TRATON GROUP issued bonds amounting to 
€3.1 billion (3M 2023: €433 million) in the first three months of 2024, including 
€2.5 billion (3M 2023: €299 million) issued by TRATON Finance Luxembourg 
S.A., Strassen, Luxembourg ( TRATON Finance), allocated to Corporate Items. 
Repayments totaling €674 million (3M 2023: €653 million) had an offsetting 
effect. Of this amount, €514 million (3M 2023: €– million) was attributable to 
TRATON Finance (Corporate Items) and €151  million (3M  2023: €641  million) 
was attributable to Scania Vehicles & Services in the TRATON Operations busi-
ness area. The bond issues and repayments related primarily to the European 
Medium Term Notes programs.
Additionally, a loan of €500 million was taken out with Volkswagen International 
Finance N.V., Amsterdam, Netherlands, and the loan liabilities to Volkswagen 
Group of America Finance, LLC, Wilmington, USA, were increased by €275 mil-
lion. This was offset by TRATON SE repaying Schuldscheindarlehen in the

amount of €350 million (3M 2023: €– million). In addition, miscellaneous finan-
cial liabilities decreased by €1.4 billion, in contrast to the €299 million  increase 
in the previous year, due largely to the repayment of external loans that were 
predominantly allocated to Corporate Items.
TRATON SE placed €800 million (3M 2023: €– million) with Volkswagen AG on 
a short-term basis.
The net financial debt/EBITDA (adjusted) ratio for the TRATON Operations 
business area including Corporate Items was –0.9 (December 31, 2023: –1.0) as 
of March 31, 2024, and hence a slight improvement of –0.1 on the prior-year 
comparative figure. The improvement in the net financial debt/EBITDA 
 (adjusted) ratio is due to a decrease in net financial debt in the TRATON 
 Operations business area including Corporate Items to €5.5  billion (Decem-
ber 31, 2023: €5.8 billion) and an increase in EBITDA (adjusted) over the last 
twelve months in the TRATON Operations business area including Corporate 
Items to €5.9 billion (December 31, 2023: €5.5 billion).
