Current report

Following these recent U.S. Government policy changes, including the termination of consumer tax incentives for EV purchases and the reduction in stringency of emissions regulations, we expect the adoption rate of EVs to slow. These developments have caused us to reassess our EV capacity and manufacturing footprint to align with expected consumer demand. Based on a planned strategic realignment of our EV capacity and manufacturing footprint to expected consumer demand, we recorded charges of $1.6 billion in GMNA in the three months ended September 30, 2025. The reassessment of our EV capacity and manufacturing footprint, including our investments in our battery component manufacturing, is ongoing and it is reasonably possible that we will recognize additional future material cash and non-cash charges that may adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows in the period in which they are recognized. These amounts will be recognized in our results as decisions are made and will be reflected as adjustments in our non-GAAP financial measures. Refer to the "Non-GAAP Measures" section of this MD&A for additional information. Our strategic realignment of EV capacity does not impact today's retail portfolio of Chevrolet, GMC, and Cadillac EVs currently in production, and we expect these models to remain available to consumers.

Current report

(a)These adjustments were excluded because they relate to our planned strategic realignment of our EV capacity and manufacturing footprint to expected consumer demand.

Current report

(b)These adjustments were excluded because they relate to investigations and litigation associated with our former OnStar Smart Driver product.
Reworded paragraphs (65)

Previous wording

Our financial performance continues to be driven by the strength of our vehicle portfolio, including high margin full-size pickup trucks and SUVs, strong consumer demand for our products and the execution of our core business strategy. We remain focused on maintaining an efficient cost structure and pricing discipline. We continue to prioritize driving down costs and building scale in our EV portfolio to improve profitability. In February 2025, we completed the acquisition of the noncontrolling interests in Cruise and are prioritizing the development of ADAS on a path to fully autonomous personal vehicles. We are monitoring industry pricing pressures, changing interest rates, inflation, warranty claims, consumer demand trends, changes to the regulatory environment, including with respect to fuel economy standards, GHG emissions regulations, corporate taxes and EV incentives.

Previous wording

In the first quarter of 2025, the U.S. Government announced new tariffs, inclusive of vehicles and parts imported into the U.S. The tariff environment continues to remain highly dynamic and the specific tariffs applicable to goods imported by GM and its suppliers into the U.S., including under the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement, continue to evolve, as do import tariffs charged by other countries. Based on the current tariff environment, we estimate that impacts to EBIT-adjusted could range from $4.0 billion to $5.0 billion for the year ending December 31, 2025. Refer to Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors for a full discussion of the risks associated with the U.S. tariff environment.

In October 2025, the U.S. Government announced certain modifications to tariffs relevant to the automotive industry, including tariffs related to imports of heavy-duty trucks and, separately, to parts for passenger vehicles and light-duty trucks. With respect to tariffs on imports of heavy-duty trucks, we do not anticipate that such tariffs will have a material impact on our business results. With respect to the expansion and extension of the import adjustment offset program established pursuant to Presidential Proclamation 10925, and due in part to increased competitiveness of our U.S. produced vehicles, GM anticipates that the recently announced changes will result in a material positive benefit to our fourth quarter 2025 business results, as well as in future quarters. Based on the current tariff environment, we estimate that impacts to EBIT-adjusted could range from $3.5 billion to $4.5 billion for the year ending December 31, 2025. Refer to Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors for a full discussion of the risks associated with the U.S. tariff environment.

On July 4, 2025, the Act was signed into law that includes the extension and modification of certain key provisions of the TCJA, modification of certain IRA incentives, acceleration of the phase-out of clean vehicle and other clean energy credits and sets the civil penalties to zero for noncompliance with CAFE standards. The Act also introduces a new auto loan interest deductibility provision that allows some individuals to deduct up to $10,000 per year in interest on new, U.S.-assembled personal vehicles purchased between 2025 and 2028. There are a variety of effective dates in the Act and only certain key provisions with financial reporting implications are expected to affect our financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2025. We are currently unable to estimate the financial impacts of the Act which could be material and may adversely affect EV profitability.

In July 2025, the EPA proposed to remove GHG regulations for light-, medium- and heavy-duty on-highway vehicles on a retrospective and prospective basis. Should the EPA remove GHG regulations, the majority of the carrying amount of our acquired credits of $1.2 billion may be subject to impairment in the near term and our ongoing cost of compliance to the GHG regulations would be favorably impacted.

Current wording

We face continuing market, operating and regulatory challenges in several countries across the globe due to, among other factors, competitive pressures, our product portfolio offerings, heightened emission standards, labor disruptions, foreign exchange volatility, evolving trade policy and political uncertainty. In addition, we are monitoring a potential disruption to automotive industry supply chains with respect to certain electrical subcomponents, including transistors, diodes and other semiconductors. While we are working with our supply chain partners to avoid impacts to GM, a disruption in the supply of such electrical subcomponents is possible, which could have an impact on our planned production schedules. Refer to Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2024 Form 10-K and Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors for a discussion of these challenges.

We achieved strong margins in the six months ended June 30, 2025 driven by the strength of our product portfolio and ongoing cost discipline.

We continue to monitor and evaluate opportunities to strengthen our competitive position over the long term while maintaining a strong investment-grade balance sheet. These actions may include opportunistic payments to reduce our long-term obligations, and the possibility of acquisitions, dispositions and investments with joint venture partners, as well as strategic alliances that we believe would generate significant advantages and substantially strengthen our business. To support our transition to EVs, we anticipate making investments in suppliers or providing funding towards the execution of strategic, multi-year supply agreements to secure critical materials. In addition, we have entered, and plan to continue to enter, into offtake agreements that generally obligate us to purchase defined quantities of output. These arrangements could have a short-term adverse impact on our cash and increase our inventory.
