Smooth Sailing: Porsche AG is building on an optimistic end of the year as it logged a positive trend this first half of 2016 on the back of a new corporate strategy and with the new Porsche Panamera.
“Enthusiastic customers, secure jobs and an attractive return on sales are more important to us than production volumes,” said the deputy chairman of the Executive Board and member of the Executive Board responsible for Finance and IT, Lutz Meschke. Building on Porsche AG’s 3-percent increase in vehicle deliveries, 1.2-percent increase in sales, 8-percent increase in operating profit, and a 12-percent increase in total number of employees from a very competitive first half of the previous year, 2015.
