Shares of Autoliv Inc. surged almost 10 percent Friday as the world's largest maker of automotive airbags and seatbelts reported first-quarter results that exceeded Wall Street expectations, driven by robust demand in Asia and better-than-anticipated operational performance despite softer global vehicle production.
At 11:37 a.m. EDT, Autoliv stock (NYSE: ALV) traded at $122.46, up 9.99 percent or $11.12 from Thursday's close. The sharp gain came on elevated volume following the company's pre-market release of Q1 2026 financial results and a subsequent conference call with investors.
