FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q3 Ended Sep 30, 2025
Oct 24, 2025Ford Motor Company reported a strong third quarter and first nine months of 2025, demonstrating significant revenue growth and improved profitability compared to the prior year, primarily driven by increased sales in the Ford Pro and Ford Credit segments, alongside positive developments in cost management and operational efficiency. Total revenues increased by 9% year-over-year for the third quarter to $50.5 billion, and by 3% for the first nine months to $141.4 billion. Net income attributable to Ford Motor Company more than doubled year-over-year in the third quarter, reaching $2.45 billion ($0.60 diluted EPS), up from $892 million ($0.22 diluted EPS) in Q3 2024. This improvement was largely due to a significant decrease in "special items" and favorable tax adjustments, partially offset by lower performance in Ford Blue and Ford Model e segments. The company's strategic focus on its Ford+ plan appears to be yielding results, with robust performance in commercial vehicle sales (Ford Pro) and a healthy contribution from Ford Credit. While the Ford Model e segment continues to operate at a loss, there are signs of improvement in cost structures and increasing wholesale volumes, driven by new EV launches. Management guidance for the full year 2025 has been updated to reflect a positive outlook for Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted Free Cash Flow, though adjusted for the significant impact of the Novelis plant fire. Investors should monitor the company's progress in managing costs, navigating supply chain challenges, and advancing its electric vehicle strategy.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q2 Ended Jun 30, 2025
Jul 31, 2025Ford Motor Company reported a net loss of $36 million ($0.01 per diluted share) for the second quarter of 2025, a significant decline from a net income of $1,831 million ($0.46 per diluted share) in the same period last year. This downturn was primarily driven by substantial "special items," including a significant field service action for fuel injectors, expenses related to the cancellation of an electric vehicle program, and impairments related to equity method investments. Excluding these special items, adjusted EBIT was $2,140 million, down from $2,757 million year-over-year, reflecting continued profitability challenges in the Ford Blue and Ford Model e segments. Despite the quarterly loss, total revenues increased by 5% year-over-year to $50.2 billion, driven by higher sales in the Ford Pro and Ford Credit segments, alongside increased EV sales in Ford Model e. Ford Credit demonstrated a strong performance, with earnings before taxes (EBT) increasing to $645 million. The company maintained a robust liquidity position with $28.4 billion in Company cash and $46.6 billion in overall liquidity as of June 30, 2025. Ford reiterated its full-year 2025 guidance, expecting adjusted EBIT between $6.5 billion and $7.5 billion.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q1 Ended Mar 31, 2025
May 6, 2025Ford Motor Company reported a significant decrease in net income for the first quarter of 2025, with net income attributable to Ford standing at $471 million, down from $1,332 million in the prior year's first quarter. This decline was primarily driven by lower EBIT in the Ford Pro and Ford Blue segments, exacerbated by factors such as planned production downtime, dealer stock reductions, unfavorable exchange rates, and tariff-related costs. Despite these challenges, the Ford Model e segment showed improvement with a reduced EBIT loss, and the Ford Credit segment experienced an increase in Earnings Before Taxes (EBT). Total revenues also saw a decrease, falling to $40.7 billion from $42.8 billion year-over-year. The company is navigating a complex market environment characterized by evolving electric vehicle adoption rates, pricing pressures, and ongoing trade policy uncertainties, particularly concerning tariffs. Due to these material near-term risks, Ford has suspended its full-year 2025 guidance for adjusted EBIT, adjusted free cash flow, segment EBIT, and Ford Credit EBT, signaling caution amidst ongoing market volatility.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q3 Ended Sep 30, 2024
Oct 29, 2024Ford Motor Company reported its third quarter and first nine months results for 2024, demonstrating a mixed financial performance. Total revenues increased year-over-year for both periods, reaching $46.2 billion in Q3 2024 and $136.8 billion for the first nine months. However, net income attributable to Ford Motor Company decreased to $892 million for the third quarter of 2024, down from $1.2 billion in the prior year, and similarly declined for the first nine months from $4.9 billion to $4.1 billion. The company's performance was significantly impacted by "special items," particularly the cancellation of an all-electric three-row SUV program, which resulted in substantial charges. Despite these headwinds, Ford Credit's performance showed strength, with a notable increase in Earnings Before Taxes (EBT). The company is also navigating evolving market dynamics, particularly in the electric vehicle (EV) sector, adjusting its strategy in response to lower-than-anticipated adoption rates and pricing pressures.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q2 Ended Jun 30, 2024
Jul 25, 2024Ford Motor Company reported a mixed financial performance for the second quarter and first half of 2024. Total revenues saw an increase year-over-year, driven by higher sales in the Ford Pro segment and some recovery in Ford Blue. However, net income and adjusted EBIT declined due to significant cost pressures, particularly in the Ford Blue segment, and continued losses in the Ford Model e segment. The company is navigating a challenging electric vehicle market characterized by slower-than-anticipated adoption and pricing pressures, leading to a projected substantial loss for Ford Model e in 2024. Conversely, the Ford Pro segment continues to demonstrate robust growth and profitability. Ford Credit also reported increased net receivables and solid EBT, though with a slightly higher loss-to-receivables ratio and lower auction values. The company is actively managing its costs and investments, particularly in its EV strategy, while maintaining a strong liquidity position.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q1 Ended Mar 31, 2024
Apr 25, 2024Ford Motor Company reported first-quarter 2024 results showing a decrease in net income attributable to Ford Motor Company to $1.332 billion from $1.757 billion in the prior year period. Diluted EPS also fell to $0.33 from $0.44. Total revenues increased slightly to $42.777 billion from $41.474 billion year-over-year. The company experienced a significant decline in operating income, primarily driven by substantial losses in the Ford Model e segment, which incurred a loss of $1.320 billion. This segment's performance was impacted by lower net pricing and increased costs related to the EV transition, despite favorable battery raw material costs. Conversely, the Ford Pro segment demonstrated robust growth, with EBIT increasing to $3.008 billion from $1.366 billion, driven by higher volumes and favorable mix, particularly from the new Super Duty truck launch. Despite the challenges in the EV segment, Ford maintained strong liquidity with $25.1 billion in Company cash and $42.6 billion in overall liquidity at the end of the quarter. The company is navigating the evolving electric vehicle market by adjusting its spending and production plans to align with adoption rates. Full-year 2024 guidance anticipates adjusted EBIT between $10 billion and $12 billion, and adjusted free cash flow between $6.5 billion and $7.5 billion, indicating management's expectation for a stronger second half of the year. Investors should monitor the execution of the Ford+ plan and the profitability trajectory of the Ford Model e segment.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q3 Ended Sep 30, 2023
Oct 27, 2023Ford Motor Company's (F) third quarter 2023 results show a significant turnaround from the previous year, with net income attributable to Ford Motor Company reaching $1.2 billion, a substantial increase from a net loss of $827 million in the prior year's third quarter. This improvement was driven by higher revenues across all segments, particularly in Ford Pro and Ford Blue, and the non-recurrence of significant impairment charges related to investments in Argo AI and Rivian. Adjusted EBIT also saw a healthy increase, reaching $2.2 billion. Despite the positive top-line and profitability growth, the company is facing headwinds. The ongoing UAW strike, with a tentative agreement reached but not yet ratified, has already impacted production and is expected to result in a significant increase in labor costs over the contract's life. Furthermore, lower-than-anticipated electric vehicle (EV) adoption rates are leading Ford to reconsider its EV spending and production plans, with potential for further charges related to EV suppliers. The company withdrew its full-year 2023 guidance due to these uncertainties, highlighting the volatile operating environment.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q2 Ended Jun 30, 2023
Jul 28, 2023Ford Motor Company reported a significant increase in net income for the first half of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, driven by a substantial reduction in "special items," particularly the non-recurrence of a large mark-to-market loss on its Rivian investment. Total revenues also saw a healthy increase, reflecting improved vehicle volumes and pricing across most segments. The company continues to invest heavily in its electric vehicle (EV) transition, as evidenced by the Ford Model e segment's ongoing substantial operating loss, which is a key focus for investors monitoring the company's long-term strategy. Liquidity remains strong, with substantial cash reserves and available credit lines. Ford Credit's performance, while showing a decline in earnings before taxes (EBT) year-over-year due to higher borrowing costs and normalizing credit losses, still contributes positively. The company has reaffirmed its full-year 2023 guidance, signaling confidence in its strategic initiatives despite ongoing macroeconomic uncertainties and industry-wide headwinds like inflationary pressures and EV pricing competition.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q1 Ended Mar 31, 2023
May 3, 2023Ford Motor Company reported a strong first quarter for 2023, demonstrating a significant turnaround from the prior year. Total revenues increased by 20% to $41.5 billion, driven by substantial growth in the Ford Blue and Ford Pro segments. The company achieved a net income of $1.76 billion, a substantial improvement from a net loss of $3.11 billion in the first quarter of 2022. This recovery was largely due to favorable pricing, improved volume driven by easing supply chain constraints, and the non-recurrence of significant mark-to-market losses on equity investments, such as Rivian, which heavily impacted the prior year. The company's strategic focus on its core automotive business appears to be yielding positive results, with Ford Blue and Ford Pro segments showing robust EBIT growth. However, the Ford Model e segment continues to incur significant losses, reflecting ongoing investment in electric vehicle technology and capacity expansion. Ford Credit also experienced a decline in earnings before taxes due to higher borrowing costs and normalized credit losses. Looking ahead, Ford reiterates its full-year guidance for Adjusted EBIT between $9 billion and $11 billion, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow of approximately $6 billion, indicating confidence in its ongoing recovery and strategic execution. Investors will closely monitor the performance of the Ford Model e segment and the company's ability to manage costs amidst persistent economic uncertainties and industry-wide incentive pressures.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q3 Ended Sep 30, 2022
Oct 27, 2022Ford Motor Company reported a net loss of $827 million for the third quarter of 2022, a significant shift from the net income of $1,832 million in the same period last year. This loss was largely driven by a substantial $2.7 billion pre-tax impairment charge related to its investment in Argo AI, reflecting a strategic pivot away from Level 4 autonomous driving technology. Despite the net loss, the company's total revenues increased to $39.4 billion, up from $35.7 billion in Q3 2021, primarily due to higher automotive sales and improved pricing, partially offset by weaker currency exchange rates. Adjusted EBIT, a non-GAAP measure that excludes special items like the Argo AI impairment, was $1.8 billion, down from $3.0 billion in the prior year. The decline in adjusted EBIT was primarily attributed to increased commodity, material, and freight costs, along with unfavorable mix and weaker currencies impacting the Automotive segment. Ford Credit also saw a decrease in earnings before taxes (EBT) due to lower lease residual gains and financing margin. The company continues to navigate supply chain challenges, inflation, and rising interest rates. However, positive factors include robust demand for new products, strong pricing power, and a significant improvement in wholesale units and revenue in the Automotive segment, especially in North America and Europe.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q2 Ended Jun 30, 2022
Jul 28, 2022Ford Motor Company's second quarter 2022 results show a significant shift, with net income attributable to Ford improving to $667 million from a net loss of $2,443 million in the first half of 2021, largely influenced by a substantial loss on its Rivian investment. Total revenues for the first half of 2022 increased by 19% year-over-year to $74.7 billion, driven by strong performance in the Automotive segment, which saw revenues climb 21% to $70.0 billion, benefiting from improved wholesale volumes and pricing. Despite revenue growth, the company reported a net loss of $2,443 million for the first half of 2022, primarily due to a significant $7.9 billion loss on its Rivian investment and other special items. However, excluding these special items, Ford's adjusted EBIT showed robust growth, reaching $6.0 billion for the first half of 2022 compared to $4.9 billion in the prior year. The company maintained a solid liquidity position with $28.7 billion in Company cash at the end of June 2022, underscoring its ability to navigate ongoing industry challenges.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q1 Ended Mar 31, 2022
Apr 28, 2022Ford Motor Company reported a net loss of $3.11 billion for the first quarter of 2022, a significant shift from the $3.26 billion net income in the prior year's first quarter. This loss was largely driven by a $5.4 billion mark-to-market loss on its investment in Rivian, impacting "Other income/(loss), net". Excluding this "special item" and other related adjustments, Ford's adjusted EBIT was $2.33 billion, down from $3.91 billion in Q1 2021, reflecting lower Automotive segment performance due to persistent supply chain constraints, particularly the semiconductor shortage, which reduced wholesale volumes and impacted product mix. Despite the net loss, revenue for the quarter was $34.48 billion, a slight decrease from $36.23 billion in Q1 2021. The Automotive segment's EBIT margin declined to 5.9% from 10.1%, primarily due to increased commodity and freight costs, higher warranty expenses, and unfavorable product mix stemming from supply constraints on popular models. However, strong net pricing in the Automotive segment provided some offset. Ford Credit's EBT remained robust, though slightly lower year-over-year, benefiting from strong used vehicle auction values and a low loss-to-receivables ratio, despite a decrease in total net receivables.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q3 Ended Sep 30, 2021
Oct 28, 2021Ford Motor Company's (F) third quarter and first nine months of 2021 performance showed a significant rebound in profitability and revenue compared to the same periods in 2020. For the first nine months of 2021, net income attributable to Ford Motor Company surged to $5.66 billion, a substantial increase from $1.51 billion in the prior year. This growth was driven by strong performance in the Automotive segment, which saw revenues climb to $90.89 billion. Ford Credit also contributed positively, with its earnings before taxes (EBT) reaching $3.66 billion for the first nine months. Despite ongoing challenges such as the global semiconductor shortage, which impacted wholesale volumes and production, Ford demonstrated resilience. The company's focus on higher-margin products and effective pricing strategies, coupled with cost management initiatives, helped to offset some of these pressures. Ford also advanced its strategic initiatives, including investments in electrification and software development, positioning itself for future growth. The company reiterated its full-year 2021 guidance, indicating confidence in its ongoing recovery and strategic direction.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q2 Ended Jun 30, 2021
Jul 29, 2021Ford Motor Company reported a significant turnaround in the first half of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, driven by strong revenue growth and improved profitability across its segments. Total revenues increased substantially due to higher vehicle sales and pricing. The company posted a net income of $3.815 billion for the first half of 2021, a marked improvement from a net loss of $875 million in the prior year. This performance was bolstered by a strong recovery in the Automotive segment, which saw its operating income turn positive, and a robust performance from Ford Credit, which significantly increased its earnings. Despite ongoing challenges like the semiconductor shortage, Ford demonstrated resilience and a positive financial trajectory. The company's balance sheet remains solid, with substantial cash and cash equivalents, and it actively managed its debt levels. Ford's strategic initiatives, including global redesign efforts, appear to be yielding positive results, contributing to improved operational efficiency and profitability. Investors should note the ongoing impact of the semiconductor shortage, which continues to pose a risk to production volumes, but also the company's proactive management of its financial resources and strategic investments in areas like electrification.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q1 Ended Mar 31, 2021
Apr 29, 2021Ford Motor Company reported a strong first quarter in 2021, demonstrating a significant turnaround from the prior year's loss. Net income attributable to Ford Motor Company surged to $3,262 million, compared to a net loss of $1,993 million in the first quarter of 2020. This profitability was driven by improved performance across segments, particularly in Automotive, with higher net pricing and favorable mix contributing significantly. Despite ongoing challenges like the semiconductor shortage, Ford managed to increase revenues to $36,228 million, up from $34,320 million year-over-year. The company's financial health also improved, with Company Adjusted EBIT reaching $4,816 million and Adjusted ROIC increasing to 8.2%. A notable contributor to 'Other Income/(Loss)' was a $902 million non-cash gain from Ford's investment in Rivian. While the semiconductor shortage continues to pose a risk to production volumes throughout 2021, the company's proactive management and strategic initiatives appear to be yielding positive financial results.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q3 Ended Sep 30, 2020
Oct 29, 2020Ford Motor Company reported a strong third quarter of 2020, with net income attributable to the company reaching $2,385 million, a significant increase from the prior year. This performance was driven by improved results in the Automotive segment, particularly in North America, where favorable net pricing, improved product mix, and lower incentive spending offset the impacts of lower wholesale volumes. The company also demonstrated robust liquidity, ending the quarter with $45.5 billion, including $29.5 billion in cash, benefiting from disciplined balance sheet management and a debt issuance earlier in the year. Ford Credit also performed well, with a notable increase in EBT driven by favorable auction performance on off-lease vehicles and lower operating costs, despite a decrease in net receivables. However, the company acknowledges the ongoing volatility and uncertainty stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic, which continues to pose risks to future results, particularly concerning supply chain stability and consumer demand.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q2 Ended Jun 30, 2020
Jul 31, 2020Ford Motor Company's (F) Q2 2020 results, filed on July 30, 2020, reflect the significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Revenues were substantially down compared to the prior year due to production suspensions and reduced economic activity. While the company reported a net income of $1.117 billion due to a large gain from the Argo AI and Volkswagen transaction, adjusted EBIT was a loss of $1.946 billion. Ford maintained strong liquidity, ending the quarter with $39.3 billion in cash, bolstered by recent debt issuances, and repaid a significant portion of its revolving credit facility shortly after the quarter end. The company is navigating ongoing challenges, including the lingering effects of the pandemic on demand, supply chains, and consumer behavior. Despite operational improvements and cost-saving measures, the outlook for the full year 2020 remains a net loss in adjusted EBIT, with significant uncertainties persisting.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q1 Ended Mar 31, 2020
Apr 29, 2020Ford Motor Company's first quarter 2020 results, filed on April 28, 2020, were significantly impacted by the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The company reported a substantial net loss of $1.993 billion, a stark contrast to the net income of $1.183 billion in the same period of the prior year. This downturn was driven by a significant decrease in revenues, down 15% to $34.320 billion, largely due to the suspension of manufacturing operations in late March across most of the globe. In response to the crisis, Ford took decisive actions to bolster liquidity, including fully drawing down its corporate and supplemental revolving credit facilities for $15.4 billion and suspending its quarterly dividend. The company also issued $8 billion in unsecured debt in April 2020. While operations are beginning to restart in the second quarter, the full financial impact of the pandemic remains uncertain, with management expecting full-year 2020 results to be adversely affected. Despite these challenges, Ford maintained a strong cash position, ending the quarter with $26.160 billion in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q3 Ended Sep 30, 2019
Oct 24, 2019Ford Motor Company's third quarter and nine-month period ending September 30, 2019, demonstrated a mixed financial performance. While total revenues saw a slight decrease compared to the prior year, net income experienced a significant decline, largely due to substantial "special items" charges related to global redesign initiatives, including plant closures and impairments. Despite these headwinds, the company's Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted Free Cash Flow showed improvement, indicating underlying operational strength and effective cost management in core businesses, particularly within Ford Credit and improved performance in China and Europe. Key strategic actions, such as the planned divestiture of certain India automotive operations and ongoing global redesigns, are impacting profitability in the short term but are aimed at long-term efficiency and competitiveness. The company is actively managing its liquidity, maintaining a substantial cash balance, and has bolstered its credit facilities. Investors should monitor the execution of these restructuring efforts and their impact on future profitability, alongside the broader automotive market conditions.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q2 Ended Jun 30, 2019
Jul 25, 2019Ford Motor Company's second quarter and first half of 2019 results show a significant year-over-year decrease in net income, primarily driven by "special item charges" related to global redesign initiatives, particularly in Europe and South America. While total revenues remained largely flat, the Automotive segment experienced a decline in EBIT year-over-year due to increased warranty costs and launch-related volume impacts, despite strong pricing and mix. Ford Credit, however, demonstrated improved performance with a 29% increase in EBT, benefiting from favorable loss metrics and better-than-expected auction values for off-lease vehicles. The company highlighted its focus on maintaining strong liquidity, with Company cash levels targeted at or above $20 billion. Significant investments continue in the Mobility segment, particularly in autonomous vehicle capabilities.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q1 Ended Mar 31, 2019
Apr 26, 2019Ford Motor Company reported lower net income in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, with diluted earnings per share decreasing to $0.29 from $0.44. Total revenues also saw a slight decline, from $41.96 billion to $40.34 billion. The company's adjusted EBIT, a non-GAAP measure, showed improvement, increasing to $2.4 billion from $2.1 billion year-over-year, driven by better performance in the Automotive and Ford Credit segments. The Automotive segment benefited from improved performance in North America, China, and Europe, despite facing external headwinds. Ford Credit delivered its strongest Earnings Before Taxes (EBT) in nearly nine years, supported by lower depreciation on leased vehicles and improved credit loss reserves. However, the Mobility segment incurred increased losses due to planned investments in autonomous vehicle development and mobility services. The company also highlighted ongoing global redesign actions, particularly in South America and Russia, which are expected to incur significant charges. Despite the decrease in net income, Ford maintained a strong liquidity position with $37.9 billion in cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and restricted cash at the end of the quarter.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q3 Ended Sep 30, 2018
Oct 25, 2018Ford Motor Company's third quarter 2018 report shows a mixed financial performance. While total revenues saw an increase to $37.7 billion from $36.5 billion in the prior year's third quarter, driven by strong automotive sales in North America, net income attributable to Ford Motor Company decreased to $991 million from $1,572 million in the prior year. This decline is largely attributed to higher interest expenses on automotive debt and a significant decrease in other income, net. The Ford Credit segment, however, continued to perform well, demonstrating resilience with strong earnings, supported by favorable lease residuals and healthy consumer credit metrics. The company is strategically shifting its focus towards trucks, utilities, and vans, which are more profitable, particularly in North America, while navigating economic challenges in markets like South America and strategically addressing the competitive landscape in China. Investments in the growing Mobility segment are ongoing, contributing to segment losses but reflecting the company's long-term vision. Looking ahead, Ford maintains a strong liquidity position with $36.5 billion in total cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and restricted cash. The company reaffirmed its full-year adjusted earnings per share guidance of $1.30 to $1.50, signaling confidence in its operational strategies despite the quarterly earnings dip. Key areas of focus include managing structural costs, optimizing production capacity, and adapting to evolving market demands, particularly the growth in SUVs and trucks. Investors should monitor the company's progress in its strategic transformation, especially in international markets, and its ability to leverage its strong North American performance to offset challenges elsewhere.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q2 Ended Jun 30, 2018
Jul 26, 2018Ford Motor Company reported its financial results for the second quarter and first half of 2018, presenting a mixed performance. While total revenues showed a slight increase year-over-year for the first half of the year ($80.9 billion vs. $79.0 billion), net income attributable to Ford decreased significantly to $1.07 billion in Q2 2018 from $2.05 billion in Q2 2017. This decline was primarily driven by challenges within the Automotive segment, particularly in North America due to production disruptions from a supplier fire and performance issues in China. Despite these headwinds, the Ford Credit segment continued to perform strongly, demonstrating growth in receivables and healthy consumer credit metrics. The company ended the quarter with a solid liquidity position, reporting $16.8 billion in cash and cash equivalents, though overall cash levels were impacted by investing activities. Management expressed confidence in their liquidity and capital resources to navigate future investments and obligations.

Net income attributable to Ford increased to $1.736 billion from $1.592 billion in the prior year's quarter, with diluted earnings per share rising to $0.43 from $0.40. This performance was bolstered by a lower effective tax rate, partially offset by increased commodity costs and adverse exchange effects impacting the Automotive segment. The Ford Credit segment also showed significant improvement, with earnings before taxes increasing by $160 million year-over-year, attributed to growth in receivables globally and healthy U.S. consumer credit metrics. The company maintained a strong liquidity position with substantial cash and marketable securities, aiming to balance investments in future growth, debt obligations, and shareholder returns. The company is also navigating significant investments in its Mobility segment, which incurred a loss due to autonomous vehicle development, signaling a strategic shift towards future technologies.

Oct 26, 2017Ford Motor Company's third quarter 2017 results showed a significant increase in net income attributable to Ford, rising to $1.564 billion from $957 million in the prior year's third quarter. This translated to a diluted EPS of $0.39, up from $0.24 in the same period last year. Total revenues for the quarter reached $36.5 billion, a slight increase driven by the Automotive segment. The company highlighted improved profitability across most operating segments, with the Automotive segment's pre-tax results showing a notable increase due to favorable cost performance and market factors. The Financial Services segment also contributed positively with increased pre-tax profit, driven by strong receivables growth and lease residual performance. While overall results were strong, the company did experience a wider loss in the 'All Other' segment, primarily due to Ford Smart Mobility LLC's performance and increased net interest expense.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q2 Ended Jun 30, 2017
Jul 26, 2017Ford Motor Company's (F) Q2 2017 filing indicates a slight increase in total revenues to $39.9 billion, up from $39.5 billion in the prior year's second quarter. Net income attributable to Ford increased modestly to $2.04 billion, or $0.51 per diluted share, compared to $1.97 billion, or $0.49 per diluted share, in Q2 2016. The Automotive segment experienced a pre-tax profit of $2.2 billion, a decrease from the previous year, largely due to higher commodity costs and unfavorable exchange rates, partially offset by favorable net pricing and product mix. The Financial Services segment, primarily Ford Credit, showed strong performance with its best quarterly pre-tax profit since 2011, driven by increased receivables and improved credit loss performance. Despite the slight revenue and net income growth, investors should note the decline in Automotive segment profit and the significant increase in total costs and expenses. While Ford Credit's performance is a positive, the overall financial health is influenced by the core automotive business. The company anticipates lower total company adjusted pre-tax profit in the second half of 2017 compared to the first half, with the third quarter expected to be the lowest due to seasonal factors and new model launches. The company is also updating its full-year adjusted EPS guidance to a range of $1.65 to $1.85, benefiting from a more favorable adjusted effective tax rate.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q1 Ended Mar 31, 2017
Apr 27, 2017Ford Motor Company reported its first quarter 2017 financial results, indicating a decline in net income attributable to Ford compared to the prior year. Net income for the quarter was $1.587 billion, down from $2.452 billion in the first quarter of 2016, translating to diluted earnings per share of $0.40 versus $0.61 in the prior year. Total revenues increased slightly to $39.146 billion from $37.718 billion in the same period last year, driven primarily by the Automotive segment. Despite increased revenues, total costs and expenses also rose, contributing to the lower profitability. The company's Automotive segment experienced a decrease in pre-tax profit, primarily due to higher costs related to warranty expenses (including recalls), engineering investments, and commodity prices. The Financial Services segment, primarily Ford Credit, also saw a slight decline in pre-tax profit, influenced by less favorable lease residual performance. While overall profitability declined year-over-year, Ford's liquidity remains strong, with total cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities at $39.989 billion. Management has guided for a decline in total Company adjusted pre-tax profit for the full year 2017 compared to 2016, with most of this decline occurring in the first quarter.

Oct 27, 2016Ford Motor Company's Q3 2016 report shows a mixed financial performance compared to the prior year. While total revenues decreased, driven by a decline in the Automotive segment, net income attributable to Ford also significantly decreased, primarily due to lower Automotive segment pre-tax results. The company highlighted strong performance in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific within its Automotive segment, despite overall revenue challenges. The Financial Services segment, largely driven by Ford Credit, demonstrated robust profitability and growth in receivables. Looking ahead, Ford indicated a cautious outlook for the global business environment, with modest growth expected. The company reaffirmed its full-year guidance for total adjusted pre-tax profit, expecting it to be around $10.2 billion, reflecting a second-best performance since 2000.

This represents a significant decrease from the $1,611 million net income ($0.40 per diluted share) reported in the same period of 2013.

Nov 2, 2012Ford Motor Company (F) reported its third-quarter and first nine months 2012 financial results, showing a largely stable net income for the third quarter compared to the prior year, primarily driven by improved Automotive sector results offset by a higher tax provision. For the first nine months of 2012, net income saw a notable decrease compared to 2011, largely due to lower operating results and increased tax expense related to a tax valuation allowance release. The company's Automotive segment experienced a slight decrease in revenues but improved pre-tax results and operating margin in the third quarter. The Financial Services sector, primarily Ford Credit, saw a decline in pre-tax profit due to fewer lease terminations and lower financing margins.

This decline was primarily driven by lower operating results in the Automotive sector, particularly in Europe, and higher tax expenses.

Despite the profit decline, the company maintained a strong liquidity position with $23.7 billion in gross cash and marketable securities for the Automotive sector and $11.1 billion for Ford Credit. Ford Credit's managed leverage ratio improved, and credit losses remained at historically low levels, indicating resilience in its financial services arm. However, the challenging European market outlook suggests potential headwinds for the company's overall performance in the latter half of the year. The company is navigating a complex global economic landscape, with continued strength expected in North America due to new product launches, while Europe presents significant challenges leading to an expected full-year loss exceeding $1 billion for the region. Ford is implementing strategies to manage these regional disparities, focusing on cost control and operational efficiency across its global operations. Investors should monitor the company's ability to adapt to the European economic downturn and the impact of its new product introductions on future revenue and profitability.

May 4, 2012Ford Motor Company (F) reported a net income attributable to Ford Motor Company of $1.4 billion ($0.35 per share) for the first quarter of 2012. This represents a significant decrease from the $2.6 billion ($0.61 per share) reported in the same period of 2011. The decrease is primarily attributed to higher tax expenses resulting from the release of the tax valuation allowance in the prior year, as well as lower operating results across both the Automotive and Financial Services sectors. Despite the year-over-year decline in net income, the company's liquidity remains strong, with Automotive gross cash at $23.0 billion and available credit lines providing substantial financial flexibility. The Automotive sector saw a decrease in revenue and pre-tax operating profit, largely driven by weaker performance in Ford Europe and Ford Asia Pacific Africa, which offset strong results in Ford North America. Ford North America, in particular, reported its highest quarterly pre-tax operating profit since at least 2000, driven by favorable volume, mix, and pricing. The Financial Services sector, primarily Ford Credit, also experienced a decline in pre-tax operating profit due to fewer lease terminations and lower financing margins. The company reiterates its commitment to its 'One Ford' plan, focusing on profitable growth and strengthening its balance sheet, with an outlook for full-year 2012 pre-tax operating profit to be about equal to 2011.

The company achieved a net income of $997 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, a stark contrast to the net loss of $161 million, or $0.07 per share, reported in Q3 2008. This improvement was driven by a recovery in both the Automotive and Financial Services sectors. The Automotive sector's pre-tax income turned positive at $545 million from a loss of $732 million, largely due to favorable net pricing and cost improvements. The Financial Services sector also saw a considerable boost in pre-tax income, reaching $670 million compared to $159 million in the prior year, primarily attributed to lower depreciation on leased vehicles and a reduced provision for credit losses.
FORD MOTOR CO Quarterly Report for Q2 Ended Jun 30, 2009
Aug 5, 2009Ford Motor Company reported a significant turnaround in its second quarter of 2009, with a net income attributable to Ford Motor Company of $2.26 billion, or $0.69 per diluted share, a substantial improvement from a net loss of $8.7 billion, or ($3.89) per diluted share, in the same period of 2008. This dramatic swing was largely driven by a massive $3.4 billion gain on debt reduction actions and a $1.2 billion gain from the conversion of convertible notes, significantly offsetting operational challenges. The Automotive sector, while still facing revenue declines of 35% year-over-year due to lower volumes and the non-recurrence of Jaguar Land Rover sales, showed a significant improvement in pre-tax income due to the absence of major impairment charges from the prior year and substantial gains from debt management. The Financial Services sector also demonstrated a strong recovery, primarily due to the non-recurrence of a large operating lease impairment charge and improved auction values for leased vehicles. Despite the positive net income in the quarter, Ford's liquidity remained a key focus. The Automotive sector's gross cash stood at $21.0 billion, but the company had drawn down $10.1 billion on its revolving credit facility. Ford Credit's funding strategy continued to rely on government-sponsored programs and securitizations amidst volatile credit markets. While the company achieved significant debt reduction through various transactions, its overall debt levels remained substantial, and credit ratings continued to be a concern.
