Current report
In the second quarter of 2025, Ford’s net EBIT impact related to tariffs implemented or revised in 2025 was about $800 million, including the impact of preferential tariff treatment and import adjustment offset amounts. These offsets are subject to periodic approval by the U.S. Department of Commerce and may be revised based on ultimate production and import levels.
Current report
Further, the pace of EV adoption and slower-than-anticipated development of the EV market may impact our strategy to comply with regulatory standards. Although recent actions taken or expected to be taken in the United States and elsewhere may reduce the stringency of such standards, if consumers do not purchase our EVs and other highly fuel-efficient vehicles in sufficient numbers, it may be difficult for Ford to meet applicable environmental standards in certain markets and may force us to take various product-led actions (e.g., curtailing the production and sale of certain internal combustion vehicles) that could have substantial adverse effects on our sales volume and operations. As previously reported, we have entered into agreements to purchase regulatory compliance credits for current and future model years in various regions, as, in some cases, we plan to utilize credits purchased from third parties to demonstrate regulatory compliance. Our obligations under these agreements generally are dependent on the continued existence of an underlying regulatory compliance requirement in the applicable jurisdiction. Following federal legislative action taken in the United States in the second quarter of 2025 that eliminated certain state compliance programs, we exercised our contractual right to terminate some of the credit purchase transactions under those agreements. As a result of these terminations, in addition to the delivery of credits to us under our purchase agreements and accruals we recorded for credits we are obligated to receive, our future purchase obligations under our compliance credit purchase agreements as of June 30, 2025 totaled about $2.8 billion, down from about $4.2 billion at December 31, 2024. In addition, we have written off, and may in the future write off, compliance credit assets that we are no longer able to use as a result of legislative or regulatory changes. Write-offs to date for such credit assets have been immaterial.
Current report
In the second quarter of 2025, Ford Pro’s wholesales increased 15% from a year ago, driven by higher daily rental volume and higher sales of the Transit family of vehicles, including the launch of the E-Transit Custom and E-Transit Courier in Europe. Second quarter 2025 revenue increased 11%, primarily reflecting higher wholesales, offset partially by moderated pricing across fleets (including daily rental).
Current report
Ford Pro’s second quarter 2025 EBIT was $2,318 million, a decrease of $244 million from a year ago, with an EBIT margin of 12.3%. The lower EBIT was primarily driven by unfavorable fleet pricing (including daily rental), tariff-related costs, and volume-related manufacturing costs, offset partially by higher volume.
Current report
Our second quarter and first half 2025 adjusted effective tax rates, which exclude special items, were 18.3% and 20.0%, respectively.
Current report
On July 4, 2025, P.L. 119-21 (otherwise known as the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”) was signed into law. We are analyzing the provisions within the act; however, we do not expect a material impact on our 2025 consolidated financial statements.
Current report
During the third quarter of 2025, we expect to recognize a non-cash charge to deferred tax assets of about $400 million to recognize the impact of tax legislation enacted in Germany on July 18, 2025. We expect the charge to be treated as a tax special item.
Current report
Capital spending was $2.1 billion in the second quarter of 2025, the same as a year ago. We now expect full year 2025 capital spending to be about $9 billion.
Current report
On July 28, 2025, we closed on a $3 billion delayed draw term loan facility, further strengthening our liquidity and providing additional financial flexibility. The commitments under the delayed draw term loan facility are available through July 28, 2026. Any unused commitments shall automatically terminate after July 28, 2026, and any loans drawn under the facility will mature on December 31, 2028. The terms and conditions of the delayed draw term loan facility are consistent with our corporate, supplemental, and 364-day revolving facilities; however, the delayed draw term loan facility does not include any sustainability-linked targets. As of July 30, 2025, all $3 billion was available for use.
Current report
On July 23, 2025, Ford Motor Company Limited, our operating subsidiary in the United Kingdom (“Ford of Britain”), entered into a £1 billion term loan credit facility with a syndicate of banks to support Ford of Britain’s general export activities. Accordingly, U.K. Export Finance (“UKEF”) provided an £800 million guarantee of the credit facility under its Export Development Guarantee scheme, which supports high value commercial lending to U.K. exporters. We have also guaranteed Ford of Britain’s obligations under the credit facility to the lenders. On July 28, 2025, Ford of Britain drew the full £1 billion available under the facility. This seven-year, partially amortizing loan matures on July 23, 2032.
Current report
We provided 2025 Company guidance in our earnings release furnished on Form 8-K dated July 30, 2025. The guidance is based on our expectations and best estimates as of July 30, 2025, and assumes no material change to our current assumptions for inflation, logistics issues, production, or macroeconomic conditions. Moreover, our guidance has not factored in any new policy changes by the administration in the United States, including future or revised tariffs, that have not been announced or tariffs or other policy changes that may be announced by other governments after the date hereof. Our actual results could differ materially from our guidance due to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, including those set forth in “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our 2024 Form 10-K Report and as updated by our subsequent filings with the SEC.
Current report
(a)When we provide guidance for Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted Free Cash Flow, we do not provide guidance for the most comparable GAAP measures because, as described in more detail below in “Non-GAAP Measures That Supplement GAAP Measures,” they include items that are difficult to predict with reasonable certainty.
Current report
For full-year 2025, we expect adjusted EBIT of $6.5 billion to $7.5 billion and adjusted free cash flow of $3.5 billion to $4.5 billion.
Current report
Our outlook for 2025 assumes:
Current report
•U.S. industry sales of 16.0 million to 16.5 million units
Current report
•Full year industry pricing about flat
Current report
•Net cost improvement target of $1.0 billion, excluding the impact of tariffs
Current report
•Net tariff headwind of about $2.0 billion
Current report
Our assumption for the net tariff headwind reflects approximately $3.0 billion of gross adverse adjusted EBIT impact, offset partially by $1.0 billion of recovery actions (primarily market factors).
Current report
(a) In the second quarter of 2025, there were 45 million shares excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings/(loss) per share, due to their anti-dilutive effect.

In the first quarter of 2025, Ford’s costs related to tariffs implemented or increased in 2025 were about $200 million.
Previous report
In the first quarter of 2025, Ford Pro’s wholesales decreased 14% from a year ago, driven by planned downtime at the Kentucky Truck Plant for the Expedition and Navigator launch, which also impacted Super Duty production, planned downtime at the Kansas City Assembly Plant for facility improvements that impacted Transit production, as well as the end of production of the Edge in North America for fleet customers (including daily rental). First quarter 2025 revenue decreased 16%, reflecting lower wholesales and moderated pricing across fleets, including daily rental.
Previous report
Ford Pro’s first quarter 2025 EBIT was $1.3 billion, a decrease of $1.7 billion from a year ago, with an EBIT margin of 8.6%. The EBIT deterioration was driven by lower volume and mix, unfavorable fleet pricing (including daily rental), and tariff-related costs (primarily on parts).
Previous report
Our first quarter 2025 adjusted effective tax rate, which excludes special items, was 24.2%.

•On February 6, 2025, S&P affirmed the credit ratings for Ford and Ford Credit at BBB- and revised the outlook to negative from stable.
Previous report
Based on our current understanding and our expectation as of May 5, 2025 of how certain details and changes will be resolved related to tariffs, and subject to the uncertainties described in the succeeding paragraph, which could have a significant financial impact, we estimate a gross adverse adjusted EBIT impact of about $2.5 billion and a net adverse adjusted EBIT impact (reflecting expected offsetting actions) of about $1.5 billion for full-year 2025.
Previous report
Given material near-term risks, especially the potential for industrywide supply chain disruption impacting production, the potential for future or increased tariffs in the United States, changes in the implementation of tariffs including tariff offsets, retaliatory tariffs and other restrictions by other governments and the potential related market impacts, and policy uncertainties associated with tax and emissions policy, we are suspending our full-year 2025 adjusted EBIT and adjusted free cash flow guidance.
Previous report
In addition, we are suspending our guidance for Ford Blue, Ford Model e, and Ford Pro full-year 2025 segment EBIT and Ford Credit full-year 2025 EBT.

Reworded paragraphs (54)
Previous wording
Tariffs implemented to date in the United States and elsewhere have caused significant disruption, increased costs, and uncertainty in the automotive industry, including for Ford, other OEMs, suppliers, and dealers, as well as customers. Moreover, tariffs implemented in the United States and elsewhere in the future may exacerbate these impacts. Further, fragility in the supply chain exacerbated by tariffs and other industry concerns, such as China’s restriction on the export of rare earth minerals, increases the risk of production disruptions and may further increase costs. Tariffs have affected and will continue to affect all OEMs, to various degrees.

Previous wording
Although there is uncertainty regarding the application, scope, and duration of tariffs, those that have been implemented and any additional tariffs or other measures that are implemented in the United States and retaliatory tariffs or other measures or restrictions that are implemented by other governments and the potential related market impacts, should they be sustained for an extended period of time, would have a significant adverse effect, including both operationally and financially, on the overall automotive industry, Ford, and our supply chain in 2025 and potentially beyond.
Current wording
Although there is uncertainty regarding the application, scope, duration, and timing for implementation of tariffs (including related offsets), those that have been implemented and any additional tariffs or other measures that are implemented in the United States and retaliatory tariffs or other measures or restrictions that are implemented by other governments and the potential related market impacts, should they be sustained for an extended period of time, would have a significant adverse effect, including both operationally and financially, on the overall automotive industry, Ford, and our supply chain in 2025 and beyond.

Previous wording
Although we continue to invest in our electric vehicle strategy, we have observed lower-than-anticipated industrywide electric vehicle adoption rates and near-term pricing pressures, which has led us, and may in the future lead us, to adjust our investments, spending, production, and/or product or future technology launches to better match the pace of electric vehicle adoption. Further, significant unexpected changes in the EV demand environment have led, and may in the future lead, to incremental competitive pricing actions, and we may continue to incur expenses related to payments to our electric vehicle-related suppliers (battery, raw material, or otherwise), asset write-downs, or other matters. These market dynamics may continue to occur, which could have a substantial impact on our business, including our investments in supply and production capacity. In addition, policy change in the United States could reduce or eliminate supply- and demand-side incentives, resulting in slower adoption of EVs.
Current wording
Although we continue to invest in our electric vehicle strategy, we have observed lower-than-anticipated industrywide electric vehicle adoption rates and near-term pricing pressures, which has led us, and may in the future lead us, to adjust our investments, spending, production, and/or product or future technology launches to better match the pace of electric vehicle adoption. We previously announced the cancellation of an all-electric three-row SUV program. In addition to incurring expenses of $1.3 billion through the first quarter of 2025 for the cancellation of that program and for which we may continue to incur expenses, the impact of that cancellation has resulted in changes to future technology and product launches, for which we have incurred and may continue to incur additional expenses. In the second quarter of 2025, we recorded $308 million of expenses related to the program cancellation and resulting actions. We may incur additional expenses and cash expenditures of about $1.5 billion and will reflect those in the quarter they are incurred as a special item. Further, significant unexpected changes in the EV demand environment have led, and may in the future lead, to incremental competitive pricing actions, and we may continue to incur expenses related to payments to our electric vehicle-related suppliers (battery, raw material, or otherwise), asset write-downs, or other matters. These market dynamics may continue to occur, which could have a substantial adverse impact on our business, including our investments in supply, production capacity, and equity method investments. In addition, policy changes in the United States are currently phasing out certain demand-side incentives to purchase EVs and may further reduce supply-side benefits to produce EVs, all of which may result in slower adoption of EVs or otherwise disrupt the market for EVs.
Previous wording
Further, the pace of EV adoption and slower-than-anticipated development of the EV market may impact our strategy to comply with regulatory standards. If consumers do not purchase our EVs and other highly fuel-efficient vehicles in sufficient numbers, it may be difficult for Ford to meet applicable environmental standards and may force us to take various product-led actions (e.g., curtailing the production and sale of certain internal combustion vehicles) that could have substantial adverse effects on our sales volume and operations. In some cases, we plan to utilize credits purchased from third parties to demonstrate regulatory compliance. See Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2024 Form 10-K Report for additional discussion of the risks related to lower-than-anticipated electric vehicle volumes and our planned transition to a greater mix of electric vehicles.

Previous wording
The year-over-year decrease of $861 million in net income and $1,744 million in Company adjusted EBIT in the first quarter of 2025 was driven by lower Ford Pro and Ford Blue EBIT, offset partially by a reduced Model e EBIT loss and higher Ford Credit EBT. The decrease in net income was also offset partially by lower special item charges, including lower year-over-year restructuring related charges and the non-recurrence of charges related to an extended EV program changeover at the Oakville Assembly Plant.
Current wording
The year-over-year decrease of $1,867 million in net income and $617 million in Company adjusted EBIT in the second quarter of 2025 was driven by lower Ford Blue, Ford Pro, and Model e EBIT, offset partially by higher Ford Credit EBT. The decrease in net income was also driven by higher special item charges, as described on page 36.

Previous wording
In the first quarter of 2025, Ford Blue’s wholesales decreased 6% from a year ago, primarily reflecting the end of production of the Edge in North America, lower production of the Bronco and Ranger due to planned plant down weeks, and a planned reduction in dealer stocks resulting in lower wholesales across multiple nameplates. Higher F-150 wholesales were a partial offset, as the first quarter of 2024 included lower wholesales due to the launch of a new model. First quarter 2025 revenue decreased 3%, driven primarily by lower wholesales and unfavorable exchange, offset partially by favorable mix and pricing.
Current wording
In the second quarter of 2025, Ford Blue’s wholesales decreased 6% from a year ago. The decrease primarily reflects lower F-150 wholesales due to the non-repeat of the stock build in 2024 following the launch of the new model. Second quarter 2025 revenue decreased 3%, driven primarily by lower wholesales and unfavorable exchange, offset partially by favorable mix and pricing.
Previous wording
Ford Blue’s first quarter 2025 EBIT was $96 million, a decrease of $805 million from a year ago, with an EBIT margin of 0.5%. The lower EBIT primarily reflects lower volume driven by planned production downtime and dealer stock reductions, adverse exchange, and tariff-related costs (primarily on parts). Favorable net pricing was a partial offset.
Current wording
Ford Blue’s second quarter 2025 EBIT was $661 million, a decrease of $506 million from a year ago, with an EBIT margin of 2.6%. The lower EBIT primarily reflects lower volume and adverse exchange, offset partially by lower costs and favorable net pricing. The lower costs reflect ongoing cost reduction initiatives, including lower warranty costs, which more than offset increased tariff-related costs.
Previous wording
In the first quarter of 2025, Ford Model e’s wholesales increased significantly from a year ago, primarily due to the launch of EV products in Europe, including the Explorer, Capri, and Puma, and higher F-150 Lightning wholesales in North America. First quarter 2025 revenue increased to $1.2 billion, reflecting higher wholesales and favorable net pricing driven by the non-recurrence of EV price adjustments on units in dealer stock in the first quarter of 2024.
Current wording
In the second quarter of 2025, Ford Model e’s wholesales increased significantly from a year ago, primarily due to the launch of EV products in Europe, including the Explorer, Puma, and Capri, and higher F-150 Lightning and Mustang Mach-E wholesales in North America. Second quarter 2025 revenue increased by $1,207 million, reflecting higher wholesales.
Previous wording
Ford Model e’s first quarter 2025 EBIT loss was $849 million, a $478 million improvement from a year ago, with an EBIT margin of negative 68.4%. The improved EBIT was primarily driven by favorable net pricing and lower material costs.
Current wording
Ford Model e’s second quarter 2025 EBIT loss was $1,329 million, a $179 million higher loss than a year ago, with an EBIT margin of negative 56.4%. The increased EBIT loss was primarily driven by tariff-related costs, volume-related manufacturing costs, and adverse net pricing.

Previous wording
Ford Credit’s total net receivables of $141.6 billion were 5% higher than a year ago, reflecting higher consumer financing, a larger operating lease portfolio, and higher non-consumer financing, offset partially by exchange. The first quarter 2025 U.S. loss-to-receivables (“LTR”) ratio of 63 basis points increased from a year ago, reflecting higher repossessions and increased loss severity. U.S. auction values increased 3% year over year, reflecting low industrywide used vehicle availability; tariffs and economic outlook create uncertainty for used vehicle pricing.
Current wording
Ford Credit’s total net receivables of $143.7 billion were 4% higher than a year ago, explained primarily by a larger operating lease portfolio, higher consumer financing, and exchange. The second quarter 2025 U.S. loss-to-receivables (“LTR”) ratio of 48 basis points increased from a year ago, reflecting higher repossessions and increased loss severity. U.S. auction values increased 4% year over year, reflecting industrywide low used vehicle supply and high demand.
Previous wording
Ford Credit’s first quarter 2025 EBT of $580 million was $254 million higher than a year ago, explained primarily by higher financing margin, favorable volume and mix, and a favorable derivative market valuation adjustment (included in Other), offset partially by higher credit losses.
Current wording
Ford Credit’s second quarter 2025 EBT of $645 million was $302 million higher than a year ago, explained primarily by higher financing margin and receivables and a favorable derivative market valuation adjustment (included in Other), partially offset by an accrual related to an industrywide review of historical U.K. discretionary dealer commissions (also included in Other).
Previous wording
Corporate Other primarily includes corporate governance expenses, past service pension and OPEB income and expense, interest income (excluding Ford Credit interest income and interest earned on our extended service contract portfolio) and gains and losses from our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, and foreign exchange derivatives gains and losses associated with intercompany lending. Corporate governance expenses are primarily administrative, delivering benefit on behalf of the global enterprise, that are not allocated to operating segments. These include expenses related to setting and directing global policy, providing oversight and stewardship, and promoting the Company’s interests. In the first quarter of 2025, Corporate Other had a $117 million EBIT loss, compared to a $143 million EBIT loss a year ago.

We regularly review our organizational structure and income tax elections for affiliates in non-U.S. and U.S. tax jurisdictions, which may result in changes in affiliates that are included in or excluded from our U.S. tax return. Any future changes to our structure, as well as any changes in income tax laws in the countries that we operate, could cause increases or decreases to our deferred tax balances and related valuation allowances.

For example, in the near-term, we anticipate releasing valuation allowances in certain jurisdictions where restructuring actions have improved business operations.

In response to, or in anticipation of, supplier disruptions, we may stockpile certain components or raw materials to help prevent disruption in our production of vehicles. Such actions could have a short-term adverse impact on our cash and increase our inventory. Moreover, in order to secure critical materials for production of electric vehicles, we have entered into and we may, in the future, enter into offtake agreements with raw material suppliers and make investments in certain raw material and battery suppliers, including contributing up to a maximum of $6.6 billion in capital to BlueOval SK, LLC (“BOSK”) over a five-year period ending in 2026. As of March 31, 2025, we have recognized contributions (net of returns of capital) to BOSK of $2.4 billion (for additional information, see Note 17 of the Notes to the Financial Statements herein). Our actual capital outlay could vary significantly based on the final project costs and potential financing opportunities. Such investments could have an additional adverse impact on our cash in the near-term.

Previous wording
The terms of the offtake agreements we have entered into, and those we may enter into in the future, vary by transaction, though they generally obligate us to purchase a certain percentage or minimum amount of output produced by the counterparty over an agreed upon period of time. The purchase price mechanisms included in the offtake agreements are typically based on the market price of the material at the time of delivery. The terms may also include conditions to our obligation to purchase the materials, such as quality or minimum output. Subject to satisfaction of those conditions, we will be obligated to purchase the materials or otherwise compensate the supplier in an amount determined by the contract. As of March 31, 2025, our estimated expenditures for the maximum quantity that we are committed to purchase under these offtake agreements through 2035, subject to certain conditions, consist of approximately $2.3 billion of purchase obligations and approximately $4.3 billion of contingent purchase obligations based on our present forecast; however, our forecast could fluctuate from period to period based on market prices, which may result in significant increases or decreases in our estimate. The actual price paid for these materials will be recorded on our balance sheet at the time of purchase. In the event that we do not expect to consume all of the materials we are obligated to purchase pursuant to the terms of these agreements, we may sell the excess materials back to the supplier or another party. The resale price may or may not be the same as the original purchase price, depending on then-current market conditions and negotiated terms. As a result, we have recorded, and may in the future record, accruals related to either the resale when the purchase price mechanism under our agreements is higher than the expected resale price of the excess materials or when we are required to otherwise compensate the supplier. Accruals recorded to date for such items have been immaterial.

Financial institutions participate in a supply chain finance (“SCF”) program that enables our suppliers, at their sole discretion, to sell their Ford receivables (i.e., our payment obligations to the suppliers) to the financial institutions on a non-recourse basis in order to be paid earlier than our payment terms provide. Our suppliers’ voluntary inclusion of invoices in the SCF program has no bearing on our payment terms, the amounts we pay, or our liquidity. We have no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to participate in the SCF program, and we do not provide any guarantees in connection with it. As of March 31, 2025, the outstanding amount of Ford receivables that suppliers elected to sell to the SCF financial institutions was $176 million. The amount settled through the SCF program during the first quarter of 2025 was $301 million.
