Reworded paragraphs (48)
Previous wording
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 the imposition of tariffs. Because we believe previously paid amounts regarding tariffs imposed under IEEPA 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.

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 six months ended June 30, 2026 driven by the strength of our product portfolio and ongoing cost discipline. However, the evolving tariff and policy landscape could continue to 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 earning 8.0-10.0% annualized EBIT-adjusted margins in GMNA on a sustained basis.
