DAIMLER TRUCK HOLDING AG reported its first-quarter adjusted operating profit fell 54% to 498 million euros ($584 million) as North American demand hit a 16-year low. Import tariffs and weak regional sales volumes drove the sharp decline from 1.08 billion euros a year earlier. Investors are weighing a 5.4% return on sales against a surge in new orders that suggests a recovery ahead.
