AURORA, Ontario, Nov. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Magna International Inc. (TSX: MG; NYSE: MGA) is holding an Investor Day this morning in New York City, where it will showcase The Power of Magna. The presentation materials include new and compelling mid-term financial targets covering the period through 2030. The targets reflect Magna's strategy to grow above market, execute with excellence and deploy capital with discipline.

Financial Targets:

  • Organic sales growth: 2-4% above market on a compound annual basis through 2030
  • Adjusted EBIT margin: 200+ basis points of margin improvement from 2026 through 2030
  • Adjusted EPS: Compound annual growth of at least 15% through 2030
  • Free cash flow (FCF): Average FCF conversion on adjusted net income of at least 85% over the 2027-2030 period
  • Adjusted ROIC: Greater than 15% by 2030

Magna has solid visibility into its growth, with more than 90% of expected 2028 sales and more than 60% of expected 2030 sales supported by existing business and awarded programs. The company recently renewed its normal course issuer bid (NCIB) and intends to fully complete the repurchase of almost 26 million shares over the next 12 months.

"These targets reflect our confidence in Magna's strategy, our capabilities and the opportunities that lie ahead," said Swamy Kotagiri, Chief Executive Officer at Magna. "Against a modest growth environment, we believe we have a clear path to grow above market, continue expanding margins and create long-term value for our shareholders."

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we also use Non-GAAP financial measures in this press release. We believe the Non-GAAP financial measures are useful in analysis of the Company's financial position, results and targets. In particular, management believes that Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are useful measures in assessing the Company's financial performance by excluding certain items that are not indicative of the Company's core operating performance. Management also believes that Free Cash Flow is a useful measure in assessing the Company's ability to generate cash to maintain operations and repay its debt. Please refer to our Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Position for three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2026, as well as our press release dated October 30, 2026 for a reconciliation of Non-GAAP measures to their most comparable U.S. GAAP measure. Non-GAAP financial measures do not have standardized meanings and may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies in our industry. The presentation of Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the Company's related financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in this press release constitute "forward-looking information" or "forward-looking statements" (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). Any such forward-looking statements are intended to provide information about management's current expectations and plans and may not be appropriate for other purposes. Forward-looking statements may include financial and other projections, as well as statements regarding our future plans, strategic objectives or economic performance, or the assumptions underlying any of the foregoing, and other statements that are not recitations of historical fact. We use words such as "may", "would", "could", "should", "will", "likely", "expect", "anticipate", "assume", "believe", "intend", "plan", "aim", "forecast", "outlook", "project", "potential", "estimate", "target" and similar expressions suggesting future outcomes or events to identify forward-looking statements. Unless otherwise indicated, all forward-looking statements in this press release are made as at November 11, 2026, and are subject to change after that date.
