  "account": "Herzogenaurach – German automotive and industrial supplier Schaeffler is accelerating its cost-cutting plans, according to the company's announcement on Monday. By September 30th, Schaeffler had already reached its target of 3,715 job cuts out of the planned 4,700, one year ahead of schedule and potentially saving over 20% of the projected €290 million in cost reductions for 2029. The company also decided to release unused reserves for the restructuring of around €84 million in the third quarter, as they were not required. Schaeffler's stock price surged by nearly 5% following the positive news. Additionally, the company finalized 1,768 new senior job contracts by October 5th, which will bring a positive cash flow effect as early as 2027. Schaeffler expects a positive earnings impact of around €55 million for 2029, with additional reserves of approximately €70 million needed through 2030 for one-time payments.",
