Description: CON Continental February 28, 2026
Continental Aktiengesellschaft (ticker CON) is a global supplier that manufactures tires for passenger cars, trucks, buses, two-wheelers and specialty vehicles, while also offering digital tire-monitoring and management solutions. Beyond tires, the group produces a wide range of industrial rubber, plastic, metal and textile components-including hoses, conveyor belts, air springs, drive belts, and surface materials for sectors such as energy, mining, agriculture, construction, and automotive design-and provides contract-manufacturing services.
In FY 2025 Continental reported €45.2 billion in revenue, with the Automotive (tire) segment contributing €28.3 billion and an EBIT margin of 7.4 % across the group. R&D spending rose to €2.1 billion, reflecting a focus on electrified-vehicle technologies and advanced digital services. The company’s performance is being driven by the accelerating shift to electric vehicles-projected to account for 30 % of new car sales in Europe by 2027-and by tightening CO₂ regulations that boost demand for low-rolling-resistance tires and lightweight industrial components.
