Summary
Ford Motor Company filed an 8-K/A amendment on January 16, 2008, to correct an error in a previously filed presentation by Jim Farley, Group Vice President for Marketing and Communications. The amendment specifically addresses a correction on Slide 3 of Mr. Farley's presentation, which was delivered at the 2008 Auto Analysts of New York Conference. The correction pertains to U.S. market share data, changing a downward arrow to a horizontal arrow, suggesting a stabilization or lack of decline in market share rather than a negative trend at that point. This filing is an update to a prior 8-K report filed on the same day. The original report incorporated presentations by Derrick Kuzak, Group Vice President for Global Product Development, and Mr. Farley. The primary purpose of this amendment is to ensure the accuracy of publicly disseminated information regarding Ford's market position. Investors should note that this is a technical amendment for data correction and does not introduce new financial results or significant strategic shifts beyond the accuracy of previously shared market share information.
