NOTE 1. PRESENTATION

For purposes of this report, “Ford,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us,” or similar references mean Ford Motor Company, our consolidated subsidiaries, and our consolidated VIEs of which we are the primary beneficiary, unless the context requires otherwise. We also make reference to Ford Motor Credit Company LLC, herein referred to as Ford Credit. Our consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. We reclassified certain prior year amounts in our consolidated financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.

In the opinion of management, these unaudited financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of our results of operations and financial condition for the periods, and at the dates, presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. Reference should be made to the financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (“2025 Form 10-K Report”).

NOTE 2. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) adopted during 2026 had no material effect on our consolidated financial statements or financial statement disclosures.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted

ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“DISE”). In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new accounting standard to improve the disclosures about an entity’s expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of expenses included in commonly presented expense captions. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with retrospective application permitted. We are assessing the effect on our consolidated financial statement disclosures; however, adoption will not affect our consolidated income statements, balance sheets, or statements of cash flows.

ASU 2026-02, Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations. In May 2026, the FASB issued a new accounting standard to provide guidance on the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of environmental credits and environmental credit obligations. The new standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with retrospective application required. We are assessing the effect on our consolidated financial statements and financial statement disclosures.

All other ASUs issued but not yet adopted were assessed and determined to be not applicable or are not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements or financial statement disclosures.

(a)Includes extended service contract revenue.

NOTE 3. REVENUE(Continued)

The amount of consideration we receive and revenue we recognize on our vehicles, parts, and accessories varies with changes in return rights, marketing incentives we offer to our customers and their customers, and other pricing adjustments. Estimates of marketing incentives and other pricing adjustments are based on our expectation of retail and fleet sales volumes, mix of products to be sold, competitor actions, and incentive programs to be offered. Customer acceptance of products and programs, as well as other market conditions, will affect these estimates. As a result of changes in our estimate of variable consideration (e.g., marketing incentives), we recorded an increase related to revenue recognized in prior periods of $163 million in the third quarter of 2025 and a de minimis amount in the third quarter of 2026.

We had a balance of $6.2 billion and $6.6 billion of unearned revenue associated primarily with outstanding extended service contracts reported in Other liabilities and deferred revenue at December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2026, respectively. We expect to recognize approximately $600 million of the unearned amount in the remainder of 2026, $1.9 billion in 2027, and $4.1 billion thereafter. We recognized $525 million and $565 million of unearned amounts from prior years as revenue during the third quarter of 2025 and 2026, respectively, and $1.5 billion and $1.7 billion during the first nine months of 2025 and 2026, respectively.

Amounts paid to dealers to obtain extended service contracts are deferred and recorded as Other assets. Our deferred cost balances were $307 million and $272 million as of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2026, respectively. We recognized $27 million and $25 million of amortization during the third quarter of 2025 and 2026, respectively, and $79 million and $85 million during the first nine months of 2025 and 2026, respectively.

NOTE 4. OTHER INCOME/(LOSS)

Other28176116361
Total$560$922$1,633$2,144

NOTE 5. INCOME TAXES

For interim tax reporting, we estimate one single effective tax rate for tax jurisdictions not subject to a valuation allowance, which is applied to the year-to-date ordinary income/(loss). Tax effects of significant unusual or infrequently occurring items are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate calculation and recognized in the interim period in which they occur.

Our Provision for/(Benefit from) income taxes for the third quarter and first nine months of 2026 was a provision of $97 million and a benefit of $253 million, respectively, resulting in an effective tax rate of 4.5% for the third quarter and negative 8.4% for the first nine months. These rates were driven by a benefit of $179 million in the third quarter resulting from legal entity restructuring of our South American operations. The first nine months rate was also driven by a benefit resulting from the recognition of a U.S. Qualified Opportunity Zone tax incentive and a tax law change in the United Kingdom.

NOTE 8. FORD CREDIT FINANCE RECEIVABLES AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

Ford Credit manages finance receivables as “consumer” and “non-consumer” portfolios. The receivables are generally secured by the vehicles, inventory, or other property being financed.

Finance receivables are recorded at the time of origination or purchase at fair value and are subsequently reported at amortized cost, net of any allowance for credit losses.

For all finance receivables, Ford Credit defines “past due” as any payment, including principal and interest, that is at least 31 days past the contractual due date.

(a)Net finance receivables subject to fair value exclude finance leases.

(b)The fair value of finance receivables is categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Ford Credit’s finance leases are comprised of sales-type and direct financing leases. Financing revenue from finance leases for the third quarter of 2025 and 2026 was $146 million and $152 million, respectively, and for the first nine months of 2025 and 2026 was $431 million and $459 million, respectively, and is included in Ford Credit revenueson our consolidated income statements.

At December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2026, accrued interest was $314 million and $287 million, respectively, which we report in Other assets in the current assets section of our consolidated balance sheets.

Included in the recorded investment in finance receivables at December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2026 were consumer receivables of $43.8 billion and $44.9 billion, respectively, and non-consumer receivables of $20.3 billion and $20.3 billion, respectively, (including Ford Blue, Ford Model e, and Ford Pro receivables sold to Ford Credit, which we report in Trade and other receivables) that have been sold for legal purposes in securitization transactions but continue to be reported in our consolidated financial statements. The receivables are available only for payment of the debt issued by, and other obligations of, the securitization entities that are parties to those securitization transactions; they are not available to pay the other obligations or the claims of Ford Credit’s other creditors. Ford Credit holds the right to receive the excess cash flows not needed to pay the debt issued by, and other obligations of, the securitization entities that are parties to those securitization transactions.

Credit Quality

Consumer Portfolio. Credit quality ratings for consumer receivables are based on aging. Receivables over 60 days past due are in intensified collection status.

Non-Consumer Portfolio. The credit quality of dealer financing receivables is evaluated based on Ford Credit’s internal dealer risk rating analysis. Ford Credit uses a proprietary model to assign each dealer a risk rating. This model uses historical dealer performance data to identify key factors about a dealer that are considered most significant in predicting a dealer’s ability to meet its financial obligations. Ford Credit also considers numerous other financial and qualitative factors of the dealer’s operations, including capitalization and leverage, liquidity and cash flow, profitability, and credit history with Ford Credit and other creditors.

Dealers are assigned to one of four groups according to risk ratings as follows:

Group I – strong to superior financial metrics

Group II – fair to favorable financial metrics

Group III – marginal to weak financial metrics

Group IV – poor financial metrics, including dealers classified as uncollectible

Ford Credit generally suspends credit lines and extends no further funding to dealers classified in Group IV.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses represents an estimate of the lifetime expected credit losses inherent in finance receivables as of the balance sheet date. The adequacy of the allowance for credit losses is assessed quarterly.

Adjustments to the allowance for credit losses are made by recording charges to Ford Credit interest, operating, and other expenses on our consolidated income statements. The uncollectible portion of a finance receivable is charged to the allowance for credit losses at the earlier of when an account is deemed to be uncollectible or when an account is 120 days delinquent, taking into consideration the financial condition of the customer or borrower, the value of the collateral, recourse to guarantors, and other factors.

Charge-offs on finance receivables include uncollected amounts related to principal, interest, late fees, and other allowable charges. Recoveries on finance receivables previously charged off as uncollectible are credited to the allowance for credit losses. In the event Ford Credit repossesses the collateral, the receivable is charged off and the collateral is recorded at its estimated fair value less costs to sell and reported in Other assets on our consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 12. DEBT(Continued)

U.S. Department of Energy Loan

In May 2026, we and the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) entered into a Loan Arrangement and Reimbursement Agreement (the “Ford DOE Loan Agreement”), and we assumed from BlueOval SK, LLC (“BOSK”), our former joint venture, all obligations under a $3.8 billion promissory note payable to the DOE for advances previously made to BOSK. The advances were made for the construction ofone oftwo plants in Kentucky that we acquired from BOSK upon the closing of the BOSK Joint Venture Disposition Agreement (“JVDA”). See Note 16 for more information on the BOSK JVDA. Thetwo Kentucky plants we acquired from BOSK are subject to existing liens in favor of the DOE.

Under the terms of the Ford DOE Loan Agreement, the interest rate for the loan is 4.814% per annum. Quarterly interest only payments are required through January 15, 2030, with quarterly principal and interest payments required commencing on April 15, 2030 through July 15, 2040, the final maturity date. The Ford DOE Loan Agreement also contains covenants substantially similar to those in our existing Credit Agreement dated as of December 15, 2006 (as amended and restated, amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time), including a liquidity covenant requiring that we not permit Available Liquidity (as defined in the Ford DOE Loan Agreement) to be less than $4.0 billion.

NOTE 13. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

In the normal course of business, our operations are exposed to global market risks, including the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, certain commodity prices, and interest rates. To manage these risks, we enter into derivative and nonderivative contracts and have elected to apply hedge accounting to certain of these instruments. Derivatives that are designated in hedging relationships are evaluated for effectiveness using regression analysis at the time they are designated and throughout the hedge period. Some derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting; for others, we elect not to apply hedge accounting.

NOTE 13. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES(Continued)

Balance Sheet Effect of Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative assets and liabilities are reported on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value and are presented on a gross basis. The notional amounts of the derivative instruments do not necessarily represent amounts exchanged by the parties and are not a direct measure of our financial exposure. We also enter into master agreements with counterparties that may allow for netting of exposures in the event of default or breach of the counterparty agreement. Collateral represents cash received or paid under reciprocal arrangements that we have entered into with our derivative counterparties, which we do not use to offset our derivative assets and liabilities.

The fair value of our derivative instruments and the associated notional amounts were as follows (in millions):

(b)At December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2026, the fair value of assets and liabilities available for counterparty netting was $814 million and $1,033 million, respectively. All derivatives are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Nonderivative Hedging Instruments

In the first quarter of 2026, we designated a foreign-denominated debt issuance as a net investment hedge to manage the foreign currency risk of a portion of our investment in a foreign subsidiary with a non-U.S. dollar functional currency. The designated balance of $828 million at September 30, 2026 is reported in Ford Credit debt on our consolidated balance sheets. The cumulative foreign currency remeasurement gains and losses on the designated debt are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss), offsetting translation adjustments on the investment. Upon the sale or substantial liquidation of our investment in the foreign subsidiary, the gains and losses would be reclassified to Other income/(loss), net. For the third quarter and first nine months of 2026, a $3 million gain and a $39 million gain, respectively, were recognized in Foreign currency translation, a component of Other comprehensive income/(loss), net of tax, and no amount was reclassified to income.

NOTE 14. EMPLOYEE SEPARATION ACTIONS AND EXIT AND DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES

We generally record costs associated with voluntary separations at the time of employee acceptance. We generally record costs associated with involuntary separation programs when management has approved the plan for separation, the affected employees are identified, and it is unlikely that actions required to complete the separation plan will change significantly. Costs associated with benefits that are contingent on the employee continuing to provide service are accrued over the required service period.

Employee separation actions and exit and disposal activities include employee separation costs, facility and other asset-related charges (e.g., impairment, accelerated depreciation), dealer and supplier payments, other statutory and contractual obligations, and other expenses, which are recorded in Cost of sales and Selling, administrative, and other expenses.

The following table summarizes the activities (primarily hourly and salaried worker separation programs in Europe, which are expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2027) for the periods ended September 30, which are recorded in Other liabilities and deferred revenue (in millions):

We estimate that we will incur total charges in 2026 that range between $500 million and $1 billion related to initiated actions, primarily attributable to employee separations; some charges are related to plans that are subject to negotiations with a works council, union, or other social partner. In addition, we continue to review our global businesses and may take additional restructuring actions where a path to sustained profitability is not feasible.

(a)We do not recognize deferred taxes for a majority of the foreign currency translation gains and losses because we do not anticipate reversal in the foreseeable future. However, we have made elections to tax certain non-U.S. operations simultaneously in U.S. tax returns, and have recorded deferred taxes for temporary differences that will reverse, independent of repatriation plans, in U.S. tax returns. Taxes or tax benefits resulting from foreign currency translation of the temporary differences are recorded in Other comprehensive income/(loss), net of tax.

(b)Reclassified to Other income/(loss), net.

(c)Excludes a $1 million loss related to noncontrolling interests in 2025.

(d)Reclassified to Cost of sales. During the next twelve months, we expect to reclassify an existing net gain on cash flow hedges of $117 million (see Note 13).

NOTE 16. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

Certain of our affiliates are VIEs in which we are not the primary beneficiary. Our maximum exposure to any potential losses associated with these unconsolidated affiliates is limited to our equity investments, accounts receivable, loans, and guarantees and was $5.2 billion and $298 million at December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2026, respectively. At December 31, 2025, the guarantee exposure was related to certain debt at our unconsolidated affiliates, which included amounts outstanding as well as potential future draws up to a maximum amount of $4.9 billion related to certain obligations of our VIEs (see Note 17). At September 30, 2026, such amount was $0. The decrease in maximum exposure from December 31, 2025 is primarily related to BOSK, which is no longer a VIE of Ford, as discussed below.

In July 2022, Ford, SK On Co., Ltd. (“SK On”), and SK Battery America, Inc. (“SKBA,” a wholly owned subsidiary of SK On) completed the creation of BOSK, a 50/50 joint venture formed to build and operate an EV battery plant in Tennessee andtwo EV battery plants in Kentucky to supply batteries to Ford and Ford affiliates. Upon its formation, BOSK was a VIE of which we were not the primary beneficiary, and we used the equity method of accounting for our investment. In December 2024, BOSK entered into a loan agreement with the DOE of up to $9.6 billion (the “BOSK DOE Loan”). In conjunction with the loan agreement, Ford agreed to guarantee its 50% share of BOSK’s payment obligations under the BOSK DOE Loan. After its draws on the BOSK DOE Loan, BOSK distributed $3.1 billion (including $1.7 billion in the first nine months of 2025) to Ford as returns of capital.

In December 2025, Ford, SK On, SKBA, and BOSK entered into a Joint Venture Disposition Agreement (“JVDA”), and in May 2026, closing on the transactions contemplated by the JVDA occurred.

Upon closing, Ford’s membership interest in BOSK was redeemed in full, Ford’s obligation to make further capital contributions to BOSK was terminated, and Ford was released from its 50% guarantee of BOSK’s payment obligations under the BOSK DOE Loan. We also acquired from BOSK assets with a fair value of $0.9 billion, includingtwo plants located in Kentucky and related fixed assets, received cash of $0.1 billion, and assumed certain liabilities, including a $3.8 billion promissory note payable to DOE related to the Kentucky plant for which advances were made under the BOSK DOE Loan. (For more information on Ford’s DOE loan, see Note 12.) The acquisition of the Kentucky plants and the related fixed assets and the assumption of debt represented non-cash investing and financing activities.

During the second quarter of 2026, we recognized charges of $2.9 billion in Equity in net income/(loss) of affiliated companies reflecting the amount by which the value of the liabilities assumed exceeded the value of the assets acquired in exchange for the redemption of our interest in BOSK. Also, in the second quarter of 2026, we recognized charges of $0.7 billion in Cost of sales related to settlement of pre-existing claims of $0.5 billion and a non-cash write down of fixed assets of $0.2 billion.

NOTE 17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments and contingencies primarily consist of guarantees and indemnifications, litigation and claims, and warranty and field service actions.

Guarantees and Indemnifications

Financial Guarantees. Financial guarantees and indemnifications are recorded at fair value at their inception. Subsequent to initial recognition, the guarantee liability is adjusted at each reporting period to reflect the current estimate of expected payments resulting from possible default events over the remaining life of the guarantee. The maximum potential payments for financial guarantees were $5.4 billion and $0.5 billion at December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2026, respectively. See Note 16 for additional information. The carrying value of recorded liabilities related to financial guarantees was $92 million at December 31, 2025 and de minimis at September 30, 2026.

Our financial guarantees consist of debt and lease obligations of certain joint ventures, as well as certain financial obligations of outside third parties, including suppliers, to support our business and economic growth. Expiration dates vary through 2034, and guarantees will terminate on payment and/or cancellation of the underlying obligation. A payment by us would be triggered by failure of the joint venture or other third party to fulfill its obligation covered by the guarantee. In some circumstances, we are entitled to recover from a third party amounts paid by us under the guarantee.

Non-Financial Guarantees. Non-financial guarantees and indemnifications are recorded at fair value at their inception. We regularly review our performance risk under these arrangements, and in the event it becomes probable we will be required to perform under a guarantee or indemnity, the probable amount of payment is recorded. The maximum potential payments and carrying values of recorded liabilities related to non-financial guarantees were de minimis at both December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2026.

In the ordinary course of business, we execute contracts involving indemnifications standard in the industry and indemnifications specific to a transaction, such as the sale of a business. These indemnifications might include and are not limited to claims relating to any of the following: environmental, tax, and shareholder matters; intellectual property rights; power generation contracts; governmental regulations and employment-related matters; dealer, supplier, and other commercial contractual relationships; and financial matters, such as securitizations. Performance under these indemnities generally would be triggered by a breach of contract claim brought by a counterparty, including a joint venture or alliance partner, or a third-party claim. While some of these indemnifications are limited in nature, many of them do not limit potential payment. Therefore, we are unable to estimate a maximum amount of future payments that could result from claims made under these unlimited indemnities.

NOTE 17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES(Continued)

Litigation and Claims

Various legal actions, proceedings, and claims (generally, “matters”) are pending or may be instituted or asserted against us. These include, but are not limited to, matters arising out of alleged defects in our products; product warranties; governmental regulations relating to safety, emissions, and fuel economy or other matters; government incentives; tax matters, including trade and customs; alleged illegal acts resulting in fines or penalties; financial services; employment-related matters; dealer, supplier, and other contractual relationships; intellectual property rights; environmental matters; shareholder or investor matters; and financial reporting matters. Certain of the pending legal actions are, or purport to be, class actions. Some of the matters involve or may involve claims for compensatory, punitive, or antitrust or other treble damages that are significant, or demands for field service actions, environmental remediation programs, sanctions, loss of government incentives, assessments, or other relief, which, if granted, would require significant expenditures.

The extent of our financial exposure to these matters is difficult to estimate. Many matters do not specify a dollar amount for damages, and many others specify only a jurisdictional minimum. To the extent an amount is asserted, our historical experience suggests that in most instances the amount asserted is not a reliable indicator of the ultimate outcome.

We accrue for matters when losses are deemed probable and reasonably estimable. In evaluating matters for accrual and disclosure purposes, we take into consideration factors such as our historical experience with matters of a similar nature, the specific facts and circumstances asserted, the likelihood that we will prevail, and the severity of any potential loss. We reevaluate and update our accruals as matters progress over time.

For the majority of matters, which generally arise out of alleged defects in our products, we establish an accrual based on our extensive historical experience with similar matters. We do not believe there is a reasonably possible outcome materially in excess of our accrual for these matters. For the remaining matters, where our historical experience with similar matters is of more limited value (i.e., “non-pattern matters”), we evaluate the matters primarily based on the individual facts and circumstances. For non-pattern matters, we evaluate whether there is a reasonable possibility of a material loss in excess of any accrual that can be estimated.

Our estimate of reasonably possible loss in excess of our accruals for all material matters currently reflects indirect tax and regulatory matters, for which we estimate the aggregate risk to be a range of up to about$0.6 billion.

As noted, the litigation process is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of individual matters is not predictable with assurance. Our assessments are based on our knowledge and experience, but the ultimate outcome of any matter could require payment substantially in excess of the amount that we have accrued and/or disclosed.

NOTE 17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES(Continued)

Warranty and Field Service Actions

We accrue the estimated cost of both base warranty coverages and field service actions at the time of sale. We establish our estimate of base warranty obligations using a patterned estimation model, using historical information regarding the nature, frequency, and average cost of claims for each vehicle line by model year. We establish our estimates of field service action obligations using a patterned estimation model, using historical information regarding the nature, frequency, severity, and average cost of claims for each model year. In addition, from time to time, we issue extended warranties at our expense, the estimated cost of which is accrued at the time of issuance. Warranty and field service action obligations are reported in Other liabilities and deferred revenue. We reevaluate the adequacy of our accruals on a regular basis.

We recognize the benefit from a recovery of the costs associated with our warranty and field service actions when specifics of the recovery have been agreed with our supplier and the amount of recovery is virtually certain. Recoveries are reported in Trade and other receivables, netand Other assets.

The estimate of our future warranty and field service action costs, net of estimated supplier recoveries, for the periods ended September 30 was as follows (in millions):

First Nine Months

Ending balance$16,584$17,699

Changes to our estimated costs are reported as changes in accrual related to pre-existing warranties in the table above. In addition, our estimate of reasonably possible costs in excess of our accruals for material field service actions and customer satisfaction actions is a range of up to about $1.8 billion in the aggregate.

NOTE 18. SEGMENT INFORMATION

We report segment information consistent with the way our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), our President and Chief Executive Officer, evaluates the operating results and performance of the Company. Accordingly, we analyze the results of our business through the following segments: Ford Blue, Ford Model e, Ford Pro, and Ford Credit.

Below is a description of our reportable segments and other activities.

Ford Blue Segment

Ford Blue primarily includes the sale of Ford and Lincoln internal combustion engine (“ICE”) and hybrid (excluding extended range electric vehicles (“EREVs”)) vehicles, service parts, accessories, and digital services for retail customers, together with the associated costs of development, manufacture, and distribution of the vehicles, parts, accessories, and services. This segment focuses on developing Ford and Lincoln ICE and hybrid vehicles. Additionally, this segment provides hardware engineering and manufacturing capabilities to Ford Model e and manufactures vehicles on behalf of Ford Pro and, in certain cases, Ford Model e. Ford Blue also includes:

All sales for markets not presently in scope for Ford Model e or Ford Pro (as further described below)

In markets outside of the United States and Canada, sales to commercial, government, and rental customers of ICE and hybrid vehicles not considered core to Ford Pro

Sales of EVs, including EREVs, by our unconsolidated affiliates in China

All sales of vehicles manufactured and sold to other OEMs

Ford Model e Segment

Ford Model e primarily includes the sale of our EVs (including EREVs), service parts, accessories, and digital services for retail customers, together with the associated costs of development, manufacture, and distribution of the vehicles, parts, accessories, and services. This segment focuses on developing EV and digital vehicle technologies, as well as software development. Additionally, this segment provides software and connected vehicle technologies on behalf of the enterprise and manufactures certain EVs, including for Ford Pro. Ford Model e operates in North America, Europe, and China. Ford Model e also includes EV and related sales not considered core to Ford Pro to commercial, government, and rental customers in Europe, China, and Mexico. Ford Model e also includes our battery energy storage systems business, including the associated costs of development, manufacture, sales, and distribution of these systems and services.

Ford Pro Segment

Ford Pro primarily includes the sale of Ford and Lincoln vehicles, service parts, accessories, and services for commercial, government, and rental customers. Included in this segment are sales of all core Ford Pro vehicles, such as Super Duty and the Transit range of vans in North America and Europe and all sales of Ranger in Europe. In the United States and Canada, Ford Pro also includes all vehicle sales to commercial, government, and rental customers. This segment focuses on selling ICE, hybrid, and electric vehicles and providing digital and physical services to optimize and maintain fleets, including telematics and EV charging solutions. This segment reflects external sales of vehicles produced by Ford Blue and Ford Model e, and the costs (including intersegment markup) associated with acquiring vehicles for sale and providing services are reflected in this segment. Ford Pro operates in North America and Europe.

The Ford Credit segment is comprised of the Ford Credit business on a consolidated basis, which is primarily vehicle-related financing and leasing activities.

Corporate Other

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 realized and unrealized gains and losses on 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. Corporate Other assets include: cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities; tax-related assets; defined benefit pension plan net assets; and other assets managed centrally.

Interest on Debt

Interest on Debt is presented as a separate reconciling item and consists of interest expense on Company debt excluding Ford Credit.

Special Items

Special items are presented as a separate reconciling item. They consist of (i) pension and OPEB remeasurement gains and losses, (ii) significant personnel expenses, supplier- and dealer-related costs, and facility-related charges stemming from our efforts to match production capacity and cost structure to market demand and changing model mix, and (iii) other items that we do not generally consider to be indicative of earnings from ongoing operating activities. Our management excludes these items from its review of the results of the operating segments for purposes of measuring segment profitability and allocating resources. We also report these special items separately to help investors track amounts related to these activities and to allow investors analyzing our results to identify certain infrequent significant items that they may wish to exclude when analyzing operating results.

CODM Evaluation of the Business

When we report segment earnings before interest and taxes (“Segment EBIT”) for each of the Ford Blue, Ford Model e, and Ford Pro segments, it consists of the earnings for the particular segment and does not include interest and taxes. Ford Credit segment earnings include interest and exclude taxes (“Segment EBT”). Each segment’s EBIT/EBT also excludes the results reported in Corporate Other and Special Items. For the Ford Blue, Ford Model e, and Ford Pro segments, our CODM reviews Segment EBIT and Segment EBIT margin, as well as market share, revenue, and wholesale volume to evaluate performance and allocate resources, predominately in the budgeting, planning, and forecasting processes. For Segment EBIT, our CODM reviews the year-over-year change in EBIT, sequential change in EBIT, and change in EBIT from internal forecasts/budgets. Revenue and certain of our costs, such as material costs, generally vary directly with changes in volume and mix of vehicles. As a result, our CODM reviews the effect of changes in volume and mix, exchange, and net pricing and cost categories (at constant volume and mix and/or exchange) on EBIT. For the Ford Credit segment, our CODM reviews Segment EBT to evaluate performance and allocate resources. Expense information is provided to and reviewed by the CODM on a consolidated basis to evaluate cost efficiency and company level performance.

Segment Revenue, Cost, and Asset Principles for Ford Blue, Ford Model e, and Ford Pro

External vehicle and digital services revenue is generally vehicle-specific and included in the segment responsible for the external vehicle sale. A majority of parts and accessories revenue and cost is attributed to customer sales channels or vehicle lines based on recent end-customer sales and is included in the respective segment.

In the normal course of business, Ford Blue, Ford Model e, and Ford Pro transact between segments and cooperate to leverage synergies, including developing and manufacturing vehicles on behalf of another segment. When one segment produces a vehicle that is sold externally by another segment, an intersegment transaction occurs. The producing segment will report intersegment revenue to recoup the costs associated with the unit produced. This includes material cost, labor and overhead (including depreciation and amortization), inbound freight, and an intersegment markup. The intersegment markup amount is set to deliver a competitive return to the producing segment for its manufacturing and distribution service. Costs are reflected in the associated segment externally reporting the vehicle sale, as detailed in the table below:

Income Statement ElementsExamplesSegment Reporting
Costs specific to a particular vehicleBill of material cost and initial warranty accrualReported in the segment externally selling the vehicle
Costs identifiable by product lineManufacturing and logistics costs, depreciation & amortization expense, direct research & development costsTypically identifiable to the product line or production location. Reported in the segment externally selling the vehicle, based on relative volume
Shared costsSelling, general & administrative expense, and indirect/cross product line research & development costsTypically shared across all segments, generally based on relative volume. Certain costs clearly linked to a segment are reported in the specific segment
Intersegment markup costs for intersegment vehicle transactionsContract manufacturing and distribution feesReported in the segment externally selling the vehicle, for each applicable vehicle transaction

Assets are reported in each segment, aligned to the appropriate operational responsibility. Manufacturing assets, e.g., our plants and the machinery and equipment therein, are included in our Ford Blue and Ford Model e segments. Manufacturing assets producing only, or primarily, EVs and related components are reflected in Ford Model e. Manufacturing assets that support the production of ICE and hybrid vehicles, including those producing ICE and electric vehicles in the same facility, are included in Ford Blue. Company-owned vendor tooling dedicated to producing EV parts is reported in Ford Model e. Purchased regulatory credit compliance assets are reported in Ford Blue. There are no Ford manufacturing, Company-owned vendor tooling, or regulatory credit compliance assets reported in Ford Pro. Depreciation and amortization expense is reflected on the basis of production volume. Regulatory compliance credit expense is allocated by vehicle line between the Ford Blue and Ford Pro segments. Regardless of the segment reporting the asset, the related expenses are reported in the segment that reports the external vehicle sale.

Equity in net income/(loss) of affiliated companies is included in Income/(Loss) before income taxes, based primarily on which segment the entity supports or has the majority of the entity’s purchases or sales. The table below shows the segment reporting for our most significant unconsolidated entities:
