Stellantis N.V. (Stellantis) has announced that its First Quarter 2021 Shipments and Revenues will be released on Wednesday, May 5, 2021. Stellantis management will host a live audio webcast and conference call on that day at 2:00 p.m. CEST / 8:00 a.m. EDT to review the Q1 2021 Shipments and Revenues and answer questions. The webcast and recorded replay will be accessible under the Investors section of the Stellantis corporate website at the link below

Note: this is what we get instead of the the normal U.S. Quarterly Financial reporting in lieu of The new French reporting of mid-year financial and full-year financial reporting. The(French Government) thinking there's more ''long-term'' focus, but why do a quarterly sales call that could generate in theory on ''pushing product''?
 
Richard Palmer ….one of Sergio’s original management appointments is doing the call solo.
