BMW's Financial Performance in Q2 2025

The BMW Group has announced a significant 8.2% year-over-year decline in its second-quarter revenue for 2025, totaling €33.93 billion, down from €36.94 billion in the same period last year. This downturn is attributed to adverse currency translation effects and weakened demand in the Chinese market.

Profitability and Sales Insights

Net profit saw a sharp 31.9% decrease to €1.84 billion, with earnings per share (EPS) also falling by 29.6% to €2.85. Operating profit (EBIT) was not spared, dropping 31.4% to €2.66 billion. Despite these challenges, BMW remains optimistic, reaffirming its full-year guidance, albeit with caution due to potential impacts from U.S. tariffs.

Global vehicle deliveries remained stable at 621,477 units, with the MINI brand experiencing a robust 33.2% growth, counteracting a 2.6% decline in BMW-brand car sales. Notably, European sales increased by 10.2%, while the U.S. market saw a modest 1.4% rise in deliveries.

Leadership's Perspective

"Our performance in the first half of 2025 once again underscores the robustness of our business model. Our success today, as well as in the future, is based on three strong pillars: our global footprint, our strength in innovation, and our technology-neutral approach with highly attractive products," stated Oliver Zipse, chairman of the Management Board of BMW.
