The Italian luxury sports car manufacturer said Friday that net profit in three months to end-June came in at 184 million euros ($204 million), up from 160 million in the same period last year.
Net revenues were up nearly 9% at 984 million euros. Total shipments were 2,671, an increase of 8% over the previous year.
