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 to improve profitability and are aligning EV capacity to expected consumer demand. We are monitoring industry pricing pressures, changing interest rates, inflation, warranty claims, consumer demand trends, geopolitical tensions, and changes to the regulatory environment, including with respect to tariffs, fuel economy standards, and emissions regulations.

In 2025, the U.S. and other governments implemented new tariffs relevant to GM and its suppliers, including tariffs on vehicles and parts imported into the U.S. The tariff environment remains highly dynamic, and the specific tariffs applicable to goods imported by GM and its suppliers continue to evolve, including with respect to imports under the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement and other trade agreements. We have acted with urgency and discipline to maintain strong positioning within the industry. On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court concluded that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) did not authorize imposition of tariffs. Because we believe previously paid amounts are refundable, we recorded a net $0.5 billion favorable adjustment primarily due to previously charged IEEPA tariffs in the three months ended March 31, 2026. Based on the current tariff environment, we estimate that impacts to EBIT-adjusted could range from $2.5 billion to $3.5 billion for the year ending December 31, 2026 and may be subject to change if new tariffs or changes to existing tariffs arise. Refer to Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2025 Form 10-K for a full discussion of the risks associated with the global tariff environment.

Following U.S. Government policy changes in 2025, including the termination of certain consumer tax incentives for EV purchases and the reduction in the stringency of emissions regulations, industry-wide consumer demand for EVs in North America began to slow. As a result, in 2025, we reassessed our EV capacity and manufacturing footprint to align to expected consumer demand and recorded total charges in GMNA of $7.9 billion. In the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recorded additional charges of $1.1 billion primarily related to the ongoing commercial negotiations with our supply base and joint venture partners associated with our reassessment of our EV capacity. We incurred cash outflows of $2.2 billion in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and $0.4 billion in the year ended December 31, 2025 related to these charges. While we have completed the reassessment of our EV capacity and manufacturing footprint, we expect to recognize additional material cash and non-cash charges in 2026 related to continued commercial negotiations with our supply base and joint venture partners, which we believe will be significantly less than the EV-related charges incurred in 2025. In addition, we expect to record impairment charges of up to $1.0 billion to write off the carrying amount of our acquired emissions credits because the EPA finalized a rule (effective April 20, 2026) repealing its endangerment finding and removing GHG regulations for light-, medium-, and heavy-duty on-highway vehicles on a retrospective and prospective basis. These expected future EV-related charges 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 wording
During the year ended December 31, 2025, we recorded charges of $7.9 billion in GMNA related to our EV strategic realignment. In the three months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded additional net charges of $2.3 billion, primarily related to $1.3 billion for ongoing commercial negotiations with our supply base and joint venture partners, $1.1 billion of losses on contractual supply agreements, and $0.5 billion associated with compliance-related assets, net of $0.7 billion of recoveries under a cost sharing arrangement. Of these charges, $1.6 billion will have a cash impact when paid. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, net charges were $3.4 billion and, in addition to the charges recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2026, consisted of $1.0 billion of charges for ongoing commercial negotiations with our supply base and joint venture partners. Of these charges, $2.5 billion will have a cash impact when paid. We incurred cash outflows of $4.1 billion related to these charges in the six months ended June 30, 2026. We expect additional charges in the year ending December 31, 2026, and while circumstances may change in the future, we believe we have substantially completed the recognition of material cash charges related to our EV strategic realignment. The charge associated with our compliance-related assets in April 2026 was due to the repeal of the EPA's endangerment finding. At June 30, 2026, the carrying amount of our compliance-related assets was $0.7 billion. The expected future EV-related charges will be reflected as adjustments to 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.

We achieved solid margins in the three months ended March 31, 2026 driven by the strength of our product portfolio and ongoing cost discipline. However, the evolving tariff and policy landscape could have a material impact on our profitability going forward. We remain focused on improving our EV profitability while maintaining our focus on cost. In addition, our outlook is dependent on continued supply chain availability, the resiliency of the U.S. economy, and overall economic conditions, including the imposition of tariffs, less available offsets and deductions, or other trade restrictions by the U.S. or its trading partners. Looking ahead, our top priority is returning GMNA to its historical 8.0-10.0% annualized EBIT-adjusted margins.

Following U.S. Government policy changes in 2025, including the termination of certain consumer tax incentives for EV purchases and the reduction in the stringency of emissions regulations, industry-wide consumer demand for EVs in North America began to slow. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we reassessed our EV capacity and manufacturing footprint to align to expected consumer demand and U.S. Government policy and recorded charges in GMNA of $7.9 billion. These charges included non-cash impairment and other charges of $3.2 billion and cash related charges of $4.7 billion, primarily consisting of supplier commercial settlements, contract cancellation fees, battery cell JV settlements, and other charges that will have a cash impact when paid. The non-cash impairment charges include the cost of writing down EV-related tooling and equipment to its nominal salvage value. In the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recorded additional charges of $1.1 billion primarily related to $1.0 billion for the ongoing commercial negotiations with our supply base and joint venture partners associated with our reassessment of our EV capacity that will have a cash impact when paid. We incurred cash outflows of $2.2 billion in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and $0.4 billion in the year ended December 31, 2025 related to these charges. It is reasonably possible that we will recognize additional future material contract cancellation fees and commercial settlements associated with EV-related investments that may adversely affect our cash flows in the period in which they are paid. 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. We also 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.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we recorded charges of $7.9 billion in GMNA related to our EV strategic realignment. These charges included non-cash impairment and other charges of $3.2 billion and cash related charges of $4.7 billion, primarily consisting of supplier commercial settlements, contract cancellation fees, battery cell JV settlements, and other charges that will have a cash impact when paid.

We incurred cash outflows of $0.4 billion related to these charges in the year ended December 31, 2025. In the six months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded additional net charges of $3.4 billion, primarily related to $2.4 billion for ongoing commercial negotiations with our supply base and joint venture partners, $1.1 billion of losses on contractual supply agreements, and $0.5 billion associated with compliance-related assets, net of $0.7 billion of recoveries under a cost sharing arrangement. We incurred cash outflows of $4.1 billion related to these charges in the six months ended June 30, 2026. We expect to recognize additional charges in the year ending December 31, 2026, and while circumstances may change in the future, we believe we have substantially completed the recognition of material cash charges related to our EV strategic realignment.
