Key Takeaways
APTV gained 4.6% in a month, beating industry growth, with Q4 2025 earnings expected to rise year over year.
Aptiv is driving revenues with system integration, Gen 8 radar and a cockpit controller.
APTV added software scale via Wind River and partnerships. Its 1.79 current ratio signals solid liquidity.
Shares of Aptiv (APTV - Free Report) have gained 4.6% over the past month, outperforming the industry’s 3.1% growth. The company’s fourth-quarter 2025 earnings are expected to increase 2.3% year over year. Its 2025 and 2026 earnings are expected to rise 23.5% and 8%, respectively. Revenues are expected to grow 2.9% in 2025 and 3.5% in 2026.
Factors That Augur Well for APTV
APTV’s revenue growth is driven by its strong system integration capabilities. Rising demand for driver-assistance systems (ADAS) by automakers in the connected-car market is leading the company to innovate. In the third quarter of 2025, it launched a new Gen 8 radar, enabling enhanced hands-free driving with improved cost and efficiency and a high-performance cockpit controller for Mahindra's high-volume electric SUVs.
One of APTV’s recent acquisitions, Wind River, a software company, offers APTV new business across multiple end markets. Its offerings include cloud solutions for Black Box, which provides digital infrastructure, software and VxWorks RTOS (Real-time Operating System) for safety and reliability of mission-critical applications.
APTV forged partnerships with Latent AI, bringing AI capabilities to real-time edge platforms for mission-critical infrastructure and Toradex, which provides integration between hardware and software, making product development fast and easy. The company’s "smart architecture" also provides a competitive advantage. It uses local Original Equipment Manufacturers to offer its products to foreign customers, especially in China.
APTV’s current ratio was 1.79 at the end of the third quarter of 2025, up from 1.5 in the year-ago quarter. Although it is slightly below the industry's average of 1.81, a current ratio above 1 indicates that the company can pay off its short-term debt efficiently.
A Risk
APTV operates in a competitive market with companies such as Bosch, Continental, Magna and Denso. This makes it challenging to balance growth and profitability while continuously innovating, differentiating offerings, and maintaining cost efficiency.
BorgWarner carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) at present. BWA has a long-term earnings growth expectation of 10.2%. The company delivered an average trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 11%.
Atmus Filtration Technologies also holds a Zacks Rank of 2 at present, with a long-term earnings growth expectation of 5.8%. ATM delivered a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 10.7% on average.
