INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITIES
- Net sales of $26.1 billion in 2019, down 6% compared to 2018 (down 2% on a constant currency basis), as lower sales volume due to weak industry demand and dealer inventory reduction actions in our Agriculture and Construction segments more than offset positive price realization across the business
- Adjusted EBIT of $1,390 million in 2019, representing a 5.3% margin, down 40 basis points compared to 2018, mainly due to unfavorable volume and mix as well as raw material headwinds, which more than offset positive pricing and cost management actions
- Net debt at December 31, 2019 of $854 million, up by $255 million from December 31, 2018, due to higher working capital and cash investments related to the M&A activity performed during the year
