The company said its nine-month group earnings were $880 million, compared to $846 million in the same period last year. Group sales climbed 6% to $41 billion during the same period.
The board of directors of Daimler-Benz said in the report that the sinking dollar could have a negative impact on the competitiveness of goods produced at the company’s domestic production sites.
