According to MarketScreener, Schaeffler AG held its Q2 2026 earnings call on August 5, 2026, discussing revenue growth alongside continued margin pressure in its automotive and industrial businesses.

In that Q2 2026 period, the group reported higher revenue compared with the prior year quarter, while profitability remained under strain due to cost inflation and product mix, as outlined in the company's earnings communication summarized by MarketScreener for the Q2 2026 results.

Operational milestones in Greater China

Beyond the numbers, Schaeffler recently reported an industrial milestone in its Chinese operations, with its Greater China unit reaching production of 100,000 rear-wheel steering systems, as noted by Gasgoo on September 15, 2026.

As Gasgoo reports, the rear-wheel steering systems are part of Schaeffler's motion technology portfolio and support the group's positioning in high-value automotive components, providing a potential long-term tailwind for the business even as short-term margin pressure weighs on the share.

Stock stays under pressure on Xetra

With a closing price of EUR 6.95 on Xetra as of September 14, 2026, Schaeffler stock remains clearly below the higher levels seen earlier in the year and reflects investor caution around profitability, even as operational milestones such as the rear-wheel steering production achievement in Greater China offer strategic support.
