Net income of $7.2 Billion+
- Full year 2013 pre-tax profit of $8.6 billion, an increase of $603 million from a year ago, was one of Ford’s best years ever; full year earnings per share of $1.62, an increase of 21 cents per share compared with a year ago
- Full year net income of $7.2 billion, or $1.76 per share, including pre-tax special item charges of $1.6 billion and favorable tax special items of $2.2 billion
- Highest full year Automotive pre-tax profit in more than a decade; record profits in North America and Asia Pacific Africa; about breakeven in South America; lower loss in Europe than last year
- Full year top-line growth with wholesale volume and total company revenue up 12 percent and 10 percent, respectively, compared with a year ago; growth supported by year-over-year market share gains in the U.S., South America and in Asia Pacific Africa, which was driven by record market share in China; higher retail share in Europe
- Ford Credit solidly profitable
- Total company fourth quarter pre-tax profit of $1.3 billion, a decrease of $402 million compared with a year ago; 18th consecutive quarter of profitability; fourth quarter earnings per share of 31 cents, unchanged from 2012
- Fourth quarter net income of $3 billion, or 74 cents per share, an increase of $1.4 billion compared with a year ago, including pre-tax special item charges of $311 million and favorable tax special items of $2.1 billion
- Record positive Automotive operating-related cash flow of $6.1 billion for the full year; fourth quarter Automotive operating-related cash flow of $500 million — the 15th consecutive quarter of positive performance. Ford ended 2013 with Automotive gross cash of $24.8 billion, exceeding debt by $9.1 billion, and a strong liquidity position of $36.2 billion
- Global pension plans funded status improved about $10 billion compared with year-end 2012
- Ford’s outlook for 2014 is unchanged. Ford expects another solid year with total company pre-tax profit to range from $7 billion to $8 billion; Automotive revenue to be about the same as last year; Automotive operating margin to be lower; and Automotive operating-related cash flow to be positive but substantially lower than 2013

The financial results discussed herein are presented on a preliminary basis; final data will be included in Ford’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2013. The following information applies to the information throughout this release:
|
•
|
Pre-tax results exclude special items unless otherwise noted.
|
•
|
All references to records by Automotive business units — Ford North America, Ford South America, Ford Europe and Ford Asia Pacific Africa — are since at least 2000 when Ford began reporting results for these business units.
|
•
|
All references to records for Automotive operating-related cash flow are since 2001
|
•
|
See tables at the end of this release for the nature and amount of special items, and reconciliation of items designated as “excluding special items” to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Also see the tables for reconciliation to GAAP of Automotive gross cash, operating-related cash flow and net interest.
|
•
|
Discussion of overall Automotive cost changes is measured primarily at present-year exchange and excludes special items and discontinued operations; in addition, costs that vary directly with production volume, such as material, freight and warranty costs, are measured at present-year volume and mix.
|
•
|
Wholesale unit sales and production volumes include the sale or production of Ford-brand and JMC-brand vehicles by unconsolidated affiliates. JMC refers to our Chinese joint venture, Jiangling Motors Corporation. See materials supporting the Jan. 28, 2014 conference calls at www.shareholder.ford.com for further discussion of wholesale unit volumes.
|
++
|
Excludes special items and “Income/(Loss) attributable to non-controlling interests.” See tables at the end of this release for the nature and amount of these special items and reconciliation to GAAP.
|
•
|
Decline in industry sales volume, particularly in the United States or Europe, due to financial crisis, recession, geopolitical events, or other factors;
|
•
|
Decline in Ford’s market share or failure to achieve growth;
|
•
|
Lower-than-anticipated market acceptance of Ford’s new or existing products;
|
•
|
Market shift away from sales of larger, more profitable vehicles beyond Ford’s current planning assumption, particularly in the United States;
|
•
|
An increase in or continued volatility of fuel prices, or reduced availability of fuel;
|
•
|
Continued or increased price competition resulting from industry excess capacity, currency fluctuations, or other factors;
|
•
|
Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and interest rates;
|
•
|
Adverse effects resulting from economic, geopolitical, or other events;
|
•
|
Economic distress of suppliers that may require Ford to provide substantial financial support or take other measures to ensure supplies of components or materials and could increase costs, affect liquidity, or cause production constraints or disruptions;
|

FORD CREDIT EARNS FULL YEAR 2013 PRE-TAX PROFIT OF $1.8 BILLION; NET INCOME OF $1.5 BILLION
DEARBORN, Mich., Jan. 28, 2014 – Ford Motor Credit Company reported a pre-tax profit of $1.8 billion in 2013, compared with $1.7 billion a year earlier. The improvement was more than explained by higher volume, primarily in North America, driven by an increase in leasing reflecting changes in Ford’s marketing programs, as well as higher non-consumer finance receivables due to higher dealer stocks. Partial offsets were higher credit losses due to lower credit loss reserve reductions in all geographic segments and unfavorable residual performance related to lower than expected auction values in North America. Ford Credit’s net income was $1.5 billion in 2013, compared with $1.2 billion in the previous year.
In the fourth quarter of 2013, Ford Credit’s pre-tax profit was $368 million, a decrease of $46 million from a year earlier. The decrease primarily reflects unfavorable residual performance related to lower auction values and lower financing margin, both in North America, as well as credit loss reserve changes; higher volume was a partial offset. Ford Credit reported fourth quarter net income of $568 million, an increase of $300 million from a year earlier. The increase is primarily explained by a reduction in its tax liability resulting from favorable one-time tax items recorded in the quarter.
“We’re pleased with our team’s 2013 performance,” Ford Credit Chairman and CEO Bernard Silverstone said. “The team delivered solid results in all the key measures of our business. We remain focused on continuous improvement and providing ongoing support to Ford, our dealers and our customers in 2014.”
On Dec. 31, 2013, Ford Credit’s total net receivables were $100 billion, compared with $89 billion at year-end 2012.** Managed receivables were $103 billion on Dec. 31, 2013, up from $92 billion on Dec. 31, 2012.***
On Dec. 31, 2013, managed leverage was 8.5:1, compared with 8.3:1 on Dec. 31, 2012. Ford Credit distributed $445 million to its parent in 2013.
For 2014, Ford Credit expects full year pre-tax profit to be about equal to 2013. Ford Credit also expects managed receivables at year-end of about $110 billion, managed leverage to continue in the range of 8:1 to 9:1, and distributions to its parent of about $250 million
* The financial results discussed herein are presented on a preliminary basis; final data will be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
** For additional information, refer to subnote (c) in the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP measures to GAAP section of the Appendix.

Risk Factors
Statements included or incorporated by reference herein may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on expectations, forecasts, and assumptions by our management and involve a number of risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those stated, including, without limitation:
- Decline in industry sales volume, particularly in the United States or Europe, due to financial crisis, recession, geopolitical events, or other factors;
- Decline in Ford’s market share or failure to achieve growth;
- Lower-than-anticipated market acceptance of Ford’s new or existing products;
- Market shift away from sales of larger, more profitable vehicles beyond Ford’s current planning assumption, particularly in the United States;
- An increase in or continued volatility of fuel prices, or reduced availability of fuel;
- Continued or increased price competition resulting from industry excess capacity, currency fluctuations, or other factors;
- Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and interest rates;
- Adverse effects resulting from economic, geopolitical, or other events;
- Economic distress of suppliers that may require Ford to provide substantial financial support or take other measures to ensure supplies of components or materials and could increase costs, affect liquidity, or cause production constraints or disruptions;
- Work stoppages at Ford or supplier facilities or other limitations on production (whether as a result of labor disputes, natural or man-made disasters, tight credit markets or other financial distress, production constraints or difficulties, or other factors);
- Single-source supply of components or materials;
- Labor or other constraints on Ford’s ability to maintain competitive cost structure;
- Substantial pension and postretirement health care and life insurance liabilities impairing our liquidity or financial condition;
- Worse-than-assumed economic and demographic experience for postretirement benefit plans (e.g., discount rates or investment returns);
- Restriction on use of tax attributes from tax law “ownership change;”
- The discovery of defects in vehicles resulting in delays in new model launches, recall campaigns, or increased warranty costs;
- Increased safety, emissions, fuel economy, or other regulations resulting in higher costs, cash expenditures, and/or sales restrictions;
- Unusual or significant litigation, governmental investigations, or adverse publicity arising out of alleged defects in products, perceived environmental impacts, or otherwise;
- A change in requirements under long-term supply arrangements committing Ford to purchase minimum or fixed quantities of certain parts, or to pay a minimum amount to the seller (“take-or-pay” contracts);
- Adverse effects on results from a decrease in or cessation or clawback of government incentives related to investments;
- Inherent limitations of internal controls impacting financial statements and safeguarding of assets;
- Cybersecurity risks to operational systems, security systems, or infrastructure owned by Ford, Ford Credit, or a third-party vendor or supplier;
