During a conference call on Wednesday, Porsche's management disclosed that the company had preemptively shipped additional inventory to the US market in order to mitigate potential tariff impacts while upholding March's order prices. According to minutes from an investor meeting released by Bernstein Research, Porsche anticipates its operating profit margin to fall below the annually projected range of 10%-12%. This forecast does not yet account for the potential 25% tariff on auto imports that the US government may impose. This strategic move underscores Porsche's acute awareness of tariff policy shifts and its responsive approach.
