• 📊 Watch how development efficiency, time to market for new models, and supplier integration progress alongside the current P/E of 6.58 and the analyst target range of €72 to €108.
• ⚠️ With debt not well covered by operating cash flow and a 5.57% dividend not well covered by free cash flow, extra investment in digital tooling may heighten attention on cash generation and capital allocation.
