CNH Industrial NV’s truck and bus division Iveco Group NV declined during its first day of trading that valued the company at about 3.9 billion euros ($4.4 billion), weeks after a similar move by Daimler AG’s truck unit to better face the industry’s deep technology shifts.

Iveco slumped as much as 11% to 9.99 euros a share Monday in Milan following the spinoff from CNH, after initially rising slightly above the opening price of 11.26 a share. Controlled by Italy’s billionaire Agnelli family, CNH aims to extract more value from separated agricultural equipment brands like New Holland and commercial vehicles as the sector seeks to cut emissions.
