Daimler AG (DAI.XE) adjusted its full-year earnings expectations late Sunday due to an expected increase in expenses relating to ongoing governmental proceedings and measures regarding Mercedes-Benz diesel vehicles.

The German car maker sees a "high three-digit million" euro hit in the second quarter, which will be taken into account in its earnings before interest and taxes.

Daimler now expects 2019 EBIT to be in line with the year previous. Daimler previously guided for slight growth in its EBIT.

The company sees a return on sales of Mercedes-Benz vans between minus 4% and minus 2%.
