底特律，2020 年 3 月 25 日 - 美国车桥制造有限公司 (AAM)（纽约证券交易所代码：AXL）今天宣布，由于轻型车辆生产意外中断，以及受 COVID-19影响造成的经济不确定性，AAM 将撤回其 2020 年的财务展望。

AAM 董事长兼首席执行官 David C. Dauch 表示： “在这个对于 AAM、汽车行业和全世界来说前所未有的时期，我们的注意力仍然是我们的员工、他们的家庭和社区的健康和福祉。此外，我们还实施了重大措施，根据客户修订的生产计划调整运营，包括灵活调整可变成本结构，并严格管理可控费用。”

  • our ability to achieve the level of cost reductions required to sustain global cost competitiveness;
  • supply shortages or price increases in raw materials, utilities or other operating supplies for us or our customers as a result of natural disasters or otherwise;
  • our ability or our customers' and suppliers' ability to successfully launch new product programs on a timely basis;
  • our ability to realize the expected revenues from our new and incremental business backlog;
  • risks related to a failure of our information technology systems and networks, and risks associated with current and emerging technology threats and damage from computer viruses, unauthorized access, cyber attack and other similar disruptions;
  • global economic conditions;
  • our ability to maintain satisfactory labor relations and avoid work stoppages;
  • our suppliers', our customers' and their suppliers' ability to maintain satisfactory labor relations and avoid work stoppages;
  • price volatility in, or reduced availability of, fuel;
  • our ability to protect our intellectual property and successfully defend against assertions made against us;
  • our ability to attract and retain key associates;
  • availability of financing for working capital, capital expenditures, research and development (R&D) or other general corporate purposes including acquisitions, as well as our ability to comply with financial covenants;
  • our customers' and suppliers' availability of financing for working capital, capital expenditures, R&D or other general corporate purposes;
