FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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 referenced to as Ford Credit. Our financial statements are presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.
In the opinion of management, these unaudited financial statements reflect 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, 20162017 (“20162017 Form 10-K Report”). We reclassified certain prior year amounts in our consolidated financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.
Change in Presentation
Effective January 1, 2018, we changed our reportable segments to reflect the manner in which we now manage our business. Based on recent changes to our organization structure and how our Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) reviews operating results and makes decisions about resource allocation, we now have three reportable segments that represent the primary businesses reported in our consolidated financial statements: Automotive, Mobility, and Ford Credit. See Note 18 for a description of our new segment presentation.
Change in Accounting
We carry inventory on our consolidated balance sheet that is comprised of finished products, raw materials, work-in-process, and supplies. As of January 1, 2018, we changed our accounting method for U.S. inventories to a first-in, first-out basis from a last-in, first-out basis. We believe this change in accounting method is preferable as it is consistent with how we manage our business, results in a uniform method to value our inventory across all regions in our business, and improves comparability with our peers. The effect of this change was immaterial on our consolidated income statement, balance sheet, and statement of cash flow amounts for the interim period ended March 31, 2018.
We have retrospectively applied this change in accounting method to all prior periods. As of December 31, 2016, the cumulative effect of the change increased Retained earnings by $559 million.
The effect of this change on our consolidated financial statements was as follows (in millions except for per share amounts):

NOTE 2. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09, Stock Compensation - Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment AccountingASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging..On January 1, 2017,2018, we adopted the amendments to accounting standardsstandard codification (“ASC”) 718815 which simplifyaligns hedge accounting with risk management activities and simplifies the requirements to qualify for share-based payment transactions. Prior to this amendment, excess tax benefits resulting from the difference between the deduction for tax purposes and the compensation costs recognized for financial reporting were not recognized until the deduction reduced taxes payable. Under the new method, we will recognize excess tax benefits in the current accounting period. In addition, prior to January 1, 2017, the employee share-based compensation expense was recorded net of estimated forfeiture rates and subsequently adjusted at the vesting date, as appropriate. As part of the amendment, we have elected to recognize the actual forfeitures by reducing the employee share-based compensation expense in the same period as the forfeitures occur. We have adopted these changes in accounting method using the modified retrospective method by recognizing one-time adjustments to retained earnings for excess tax benefits previously unrecognized and the change in accounting for forfeited awards.
ASU 2014-09,Revenue - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. On January 1, 2017, we adopted the new accounting standard ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all the related amendments (“new revenue standard”) to all contracts using the modified retrospective method. We recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying the new revenue standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. We expect the impact of the adoption of the new revenue standardto be immaterial to our net income on an ongoing basis.
A majority of our sales revenue continues to be recognized when products are shipped from our manufacturing facilities. For certain vehicle sales where revenue was previously deferred, such as vehicles subject to a guaranteed resale value recognized as a lease and transactions in which a Ford-owned entity delivered vehicles, we now recognize revenue when vehicles are shipped in accordance with the new revenue standard.
The new revenue standard also provided additional clarity that resulted in reclassifications to or from Revenue, Cost of sales, and Financial Services other income/(loss), net.

As part of ASU 2016-09, we retrospectively reclassified cash paid to taxing authorities related to shares withheld for tax purposes from operating activities to financing activities on our consolidated statement of cash flows. Cash paid to taxing authorities related to shares withheld for tax purposes was about $57 million and $56 million for the first half of 2016 and 2017, respectively. This standardhedge accounting. Adoption did not have a material impact on our second quarter and first half 2017 consolidated income statement or June 30, 2017 consolidated balancesheet.

We adopted the impactmeasurement alternative for equity investments without readily determinable fair values (often referred to as cost method investments) on a prospective basis.

ASU 2017-07, Retirement Benefits - Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.On January 1, 2017, we adopted the amendments to ASC 715 that improve the presentation of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs. We retrospectively adopted the presentation of service cost separate from the other components of net periodic costs. The interest cost, expected return on assets, amortization of prior service costs, net remeasurement, and other costs have been reclassified from Cost of Sales and Selling, administrative, and other expenses to Non-Financial Services other income/(loss), net. We elected to apply the practical expedient which allows us to reclassify amounts disclosed previously in the retirement benefits note as the basis for applying retrospective presentation for comparative periods as it is impracticable to determine the disaggregation of the cost components for amounts capitalized and amortized in those periods. On a prospective basis, the other components of net periodic benefit costs will not be included in amounts capitalized in inventory or property, plant, and equipment.
The effect of the retrospective presentation change related to the net periodic cost of our defined benefit pension and other postretirement employee benefits (“OPEB”) plans on our consolidated income statement for the periods ended June 30, 2016 was as follows (in millions):

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted
The following represent the standards that will, or are expected to, result in a significant change in practice and/or have a significant financial impact to Ford.
ASU 2016-13, Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new accounting standard which replaces the current incurred loss impairment method with a method that reflects expected credit losses. The new standard is effective as of January 1, 2020, and early adoption is permitted as of January 1, 2019. We will adopt the new credit loss guidance by recognizing the cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings.Retained earnings. We are assessinganticipate adoption will increase the potentialamount of expected credit losses reported in Ford Credit finance receivables, net on our consolidated balance sheet and do not expect a material impact to our financial statements and disclosures.consolidated income statement.

ASU 2016-02, Leases. In February 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard which provides guidance on the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of leases. The new standard supersedes the present U.S. GAAP standard on leases and requires substantially all leases to be reported on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and lease obligations. We plan to adopt the new standard aton its effective date of January 1, 2019. We anticipate adoption of the standard will add between $1.5 billion and $2 billion in right-of-use assets and lease obligations to our consolidated balance sheet and will not significantly impact pre-tax profit.results. We plan to elect the practical expedients upon transition that will retain the lease classification and initial direct costs for any leases that exist prior to adoption of the standard. We will not reassess whether any contracts entered into prior to adoption are leases. We are in the early stagesprocess of implementation.cataloging our existing lease contracts and implementing changes to our systems.

NOTE 3. REVENUE (Continued)
Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied; generally this occurs with the transfer of control of our vehicles, parts, accessories, or services. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. Sales, value add, and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense. The expected costs associated with our base warranties and field service actions continue to be recognized as expense when the products are sold (see Note 16).sold. We recognize revenue for vehicle service contracts that extend mechanical and maintenance coverages beyond our base warranties over the life of the contract.

NOTE 3. REVENUE (Continued) We do not have any material significant payment terms as payment is received at or shortly after the point of sale.
Automotive Segment
Vehicles, Parts, and Accessories. For the majority of vehicles, parts, and accessories, we transfer control and recognize a sale when we ship the product from our manufacturing facility to our customer (dealers and distributors). We receive cash equal to the invoice price for most vehicle sales at the time of wholesale. When the vehicle sale is financed by our wholly-owned subsidiary Ford Credit, the dealer pays Ford Credit when it sells the vehicle to the retail customer. Payment terms on part sales to dealers, distributors, and retailers range from 30 days to 120 days. The amount of consideration we receive and revenue we recognize varies with changes in marketing incentives and returns we offer to our customers and their customers. When we give our dealers the right to return eligible parts and accessories, we estimate the expected returns based on an analysis of historical experience. We adjust our estimate of revenue at the earlier of when the most likely amount of consideration we expect to receive changes or when the consideration becomes fixed. As a result, we recognizedrecorded a decrease to revenue fromrecognized in prior periods of $610 million and $718 million in the secondfirst quarter of 2017 of $259 million.and 2018, respectively.
Depending on the terms of the arrangement, we may also defer the recognition of a portion of the consideration received because we have to satisfy a future obligation (e.g., free extended service contracts). We use an observable price to determine the stand-alone selling price for separate performance obligations or a cost plus margin approach when one is not available. We have elected to recognize the cost for freight and shipping when control over vehicles, parts, or accessories have transferred to the customer as an expense in Cost of sales.
We sell vehicles to daily rental companies and guarantee that we will pay them the difference between an agreed amount and the value they are able to realize upon resale. At the time of transfer of vehicles to the daily rental companies, we record the probable amount we will pay under the guarantee to Other liabilities and deferred revenue.
Sale of Used Vehicles. We sell used vehicles both at auction and through our consolidated dealerships. Proceeds from the sale of these vehicles are recognized in Automotive revenues upon transfer of control of the vehicle to the customer and the related vehicle carrying value is recognized in Cost of sales.
Extended Service Contracts. We sell separately-priced service contracts that extend mechanical and maintenance coverages beyond our base warranty agreements to vehicle owners. The separately priced service contracts range from 12 months to 120 months. We receive payment at thecontract inception of the contract and recognize revenue over the term of the agreement in proportion to the costs expectedwe expect to be incurredincur in satisfying the obligations under the contract.contract obligations. At January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2017, $3.5 billion and $3.8 billion, respectively, of unearned revenue associated with outstanding contracts was reported in Other Liabilities and deferred revenue,revenue. We recognized$271270 million and $541$298 million of this was recognizedthe unearned amounts as revenue during the secondfirst quarter and first half of 2017 and 2018, respectively. At June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, the unearned amount was $3.7$3.9 billion. We expect to recognize approximately $550$900 million of the unearned amount in 2017, $950 millionthe remainder of 2018, $1 billion in 2018,2019, and $2.2$2 billion thereafter.
We record a premium deficiency reserve to the extent we estimate the future costs associated with these contracts exceed the unrecognized revenue. Amounts paid to dealers to obtain these contracts are deferred and recorded as Other assets. These costs are amortized to expense consistent with how the related revenue is recognized. We had a balance of $239$232 million and $244 million in deferred costs as of June 30,December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018, respectively, and recognized $14$15 million and $29$18 million of amortization during the secondfirst quarter and first half of 2017 and 2018, respectively.

Other Revenue. Other revenue consists primarily of net commissions received for serving as the agent in facilitating the sale of a third party’s products or services to our customers and payments for vehicle-related design and testing services we perform for others. We have applied the practical expedient to recognize Automotive revenues for vehicle-related design and testing services over the two to three year term of these agreements in proportion to the amount we have the right to invoice.
Leasing Income. We sell vehicles to daily rental companies with an obligation to repurchase the vehicles for a guaranteed amount, exercisable at the option of the customer. The transactions are accounted for as operating leases. Upon the transfer of vehicles to the daily rental companies, we record proceeds received in Other liabilities and deferred revenue. The difference between the proceeds received and the guaranteed repurchase amount is recorded in Automotive revenues over the term of the lease using a straight-line method. The cost of the vehicle is recorded in Net investment in operating leases on our consolidated balance sheet and the difference between the cost of the vehicle and the estimated auction value is depreciated in Cost of sales over the term of the lease.

Interest is recognized using the interest method, and includes the amortization of certain direct origination costs.
Insurance Income. Income from insurance contracts is recognized evenly over the term of the agreement. Insurance commission revenue is recognized on a net basis at the time of sale of the third party’s product or service to our customer.

NOTE 10. INVENTORIES
All inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost for a substantial portion of U.S. inventories is determined on a last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) basis. LIFO was used for 30% and 34% of total inventories at December 31, 2016 and June 30, 2017, respectively. Cost of other inventories is determined by costing methods that approximate a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis.

NOTE 14.15. 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 highly effective derivative contracts. We have elected to apply hedge accounting to certain derivatives. 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.

Balance Sheet Effect of Derivative Financial Instruments
Derivative assets and liabilities are recorded on theour consolidated balance sheet 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.

Item 1. Financial Statements (Continued)
FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 16.17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments and contingencies primarily consist of guarantees and indemnifications, litigation and claims, and warranty.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
The maximum potential payments and the carrying value of recorded liabilities related to guarantees and limited indemnities were as follows (in millions):
| | | December 31, 2016 | | June 30, 2017 | December 31, 2017 | | March 31, 2018 |
Maximum potential payments | $ | 177 |
| | $ | 1,613 |
| $ | 1,397 |
| | $ | 1,558 |
|
Carrying value of recorded liabilities related to guarantees and limited indemnities | 23 |
| | 481 |
| 408 |
| | 447 |
|
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 amount of probable payment is recorded.
We guarantee the resale value of vehicles sold in certain arrangements to daily rental companies. The maximum potential payment of $1.5$1.4 billion as of June 30, 2017March 31, 2018 included in the table above represents the total proceeds we guarantee the rental company will receive on re-sale. Reflecting our present estimate of proceeds the rental companies will receive on resale from third parties, we have recorded $459$435 million as our best estimate of the amount we will have to pay under the guarantee. See Note 2 for additional information on the adoption of the new revenue standard.
We also guarantee 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 2033, 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. However, our ability to enforce these rights is sometimes stayed until the guaranteed party is paid in full, and may be limited in the event of insolvency of the third party or other circumstances.
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 terms of the contract or by 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.
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; 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 in very large amounts, or demands for field service actions, environmental remediation programs, sanctions, loss of government incentives, assessments, or other relief, which, if granted, would require very large 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.
Item 1. Financial Statements (Continued)
FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 16.17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)
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 customs matters, for which we estimate the aggregate risk to be a range of up to about $2.8 billion700 million.
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.
Warranty and Field Service Actions
We accrue obligationsan amount for estimated cost associated with warranty costs and field service actions (i.e., safety recalls, emission recalls, and other product campaigns)customer satisfaction actions) at the time of sale using a patterned estimation model that includes historical information regarding the nature, frequency, and average cost of claims for each vehicle line by model year. 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 amountcollection of the recovery is virtually certain. Recoveries are reported in Trade and other receivables and Other assets.
The estimate of our future warranty and field service action costs, net of supplier recoveries, for the periods ended June 30 wereMarch 31 was as follows (in millions):

NOTE 17.18. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Effective January 1, 2018, we changed our reportable segments to reflect the manner in which we now manage our business. Based on recent changes to our organization structure and how our Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) reviews operating results and makes decisions about resource allocation, we now have three reportable segments that represent the primary businesses reported in our consolidated financial statements: Automotive, Mobility, and Ford Credit.
In addition to the change in reportable segments, consistent with how our CODM now assesses performance of the segments, we changed the measurement of our segment profits and losses as described below:
Global governance costs, which were previously reported as part of our Automotive segment, will now be reported as part of Corporate Other
Autonomous vehicle development costs, which were previously reported as part of our Automotive segment, will now be reported in Mobility
Interest income and portfolio gains and losses, which were previously reported in our segment results, will now be reported in Corporate Other. Interest expense (other than interest expense incurred by Ford Credit) will now be reported as a separate reconciling item
Prior period amounts were adjusted retrospectively to reflect the segment and measurement changes.
Below is a description of our reportable segments and the business activities included in All Other.other activities.
Automotive Segment
Our Automotive segment primarily includes the sale of Ford and Lincoln brand vehicles, service parts, and accessories worldwide, together with the associated costs to develop, manufacture, distribute, and service the vehicles, parts, and accessories. This segment includes revenues and costs related to our electrification vehicle programs. The segment includes five regional business units: North America, South America, Europe, Middle East & Africa, and Asia Pacific.
Financial ServicesMobility Segment
Our Mobility segment primarily includes development costs related to our autonomous vehicles and our investment in emerging mobility services through Ford Smart Mobility LLC (“FSM”). FSM designs and builds mobility services on its own, and collaborates with start-ups and tech companies.
Ford Credit Segment
The Financial ServicesFord Credit segment is comprised of the Ford Credit business on a consolidated basis, which is primarily includes our vehicle-related financing and leasing activities at Ford Credit.activities.
AllCorporate Other
AllCorporate Other is a combination of two operating segments that did not meet the quantitative thresholds in this reporting period to qualify as reportable segments. All Other consists of our Central Treasury Operations and Ford Smart Mobility LLC. The Central Treasury Operations segment is primarily engaged in decision making for investments, risk management activities, and providing financing for the Automotive segment. Interestincludes corporate governance costs, interest income (excluding interest earned on our extended service contract portfolio that is included in our Automotive segment), interest expense, and portfolio gains and losses onfrom our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, and foreign exchange derivatives gains and losses associated with intercompany lending,lending. Corporate governance costs are included inprimarily administrative expenses supporting oversight or stewardship on behalf of the resultsglobal enterprise and not allocated to specific business units or segments. This includes setting and directing global policy, establishment of Central Treasury Operations.global systems and processes, and promotion of the Company as a whole. The underlying assets and liabilities primarily cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, debt, and derivatives,associated with these financial results remain with the respective Automotive segment.and Mobility segments.

Results of Review of Financial Statements
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Ford Motor Company and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, and the related consolidated statements of income, and comprehensive income, and equity for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30,March 31, 2018 and 2017 and 2016 and the consolidated statement of equity and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six-monththree-month periods ended June 30,March 31, 2018 and 2017, and 2016. Theseincluding the related notes (collectively referred to as the “interim financial statements”). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial statements arefor them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the responsibilityUnited States of the Company’s management.America.
We conducted our reviewhave previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). (“PCAOB”), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2017, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated February 8, 2018, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. As discussed in Note 1 to the accompanying interim financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for U.S. inventories to a first-in, first-out basis from a last-in, first-out basis. The accompanying December 31, 2017 consolidated balance sheet reflects this change.
Basis for Review Results
These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States),PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated February 9, 2017, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2016, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
OVERVIEW
Non-GAAP Financial Measures That Supplement GAAP Measures
We use both generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and non-GAAP financial measures for operational and financial decision making, and to assess Company and segment business performance. The non-GAAP measures listed below are intended to be considered by users as supplemental information to their equivalent GAAP measures, to aid investors in better understanding our financial results. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide useful perspective on underlying business results and trends, and a means to assess our period-over-period results. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies due to possible differences in method and in items or events being adjusted.
Total Company Adjusted Pre-tax ProfitEBIT (Most Comparable GAAP Measure: Net Income Attributable to Ford) – TheEarnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) includes non-controlling interests and excludes interest on debt (excl. Ford Credit Debt), taxes, and pre-tax special items. This non-GAAP measure is useful to management and investors because it allows users to evaluate our pre-taxoperating results excluding pre-tax special items.aligned with industry reporting. Pre-tax special items consist of (i) pension and other postretirement employee benefits (“OPEB”)OPEB remeasurement gains and losses that are not reflective of our underlying business results, (ii) significant restructuring actions related to our efforts to match production capacity and cost structure to market demand and changing model mix, and (iii) other items that we do not necessarily consider to be indicative of earnings from ongoing operating activities. When we provide guidance for adjusted pre-tax profit,EBIT, we do not provide guidance on a net income basis because the GAAP measure will include potentially significant special items that have not yet occurred and are difficult to predict with reasonable certainty prior to year-end, including pension and OPEB remeasurement gains and losses.
Company Adjusted EBIT Margin (Most Comparable GAAP Measure: Net Income Attributable to Ford divided by Company Revenue) – Company Adjusted EBIT margin is Company adjusted EBIT divided by Company revenue. This non-GAAP measure is useful to management and investors because it allows users to evaluate our operating results aligned with industry reporting.
Adjusted Earnings Per Share (Most Comparable GAAP Measure: Earnings Per Share) – Measure of Company’s diluted net earnings per share adjusted for impact of pre-tax special items (described above) and tax special items. The measure provides investors with useful information to evaluate performance of our business excluding items not indicative of the underlying run rate of our business. When we provide guidance for adjusted earnings per share, we do not provide guidance on an earnings per share basis because the GAAP measure will include potentially significant special items that have not yet occurred and are difficult to predict with reasonable certainty prior to year-end, including pension and OPEB remeasurement gains and losses.
Adjusted Effective Tax Rate (Most Comparable GAAP Measure: Effective Tax Rate) – Measure of Company’s tax rate excluding pre-tax special items (described above) and tax special items. The measure provides an ongoing effective rate which investors find useful for historical comparisons and for forecasting. When we provide guidance for adjusted effective tax rate, we do not provide guidance on an effective tax rate basis because the GAAP measure will include potentially significant special items that have not yet occurred and are difficult to predict with reasonable certainty prior to year-end, including pension and OPEB remeasurement gains and losses.
Company Operating Cash Flow (Most Comparable GAAP Measure: Net Cash Provided By / (Used In) Operating Activities) – Measure of Company’s operating cash flow excluding Ford Credit’s operating cash flows. The measure contains elements management considers operating activities, including Automotive and Mobility capital spending, Ford Credit distributions to its parent, and settlement of derivatives. The measure excludes cash outflows for funded pension contributions, separation payments, and other items that are considered operating cash outflows under U.S. GAAP. This measure is useful to management and investors because it is consistent with management’s assessment of the Company’s operating cash flow performance.
Ford Credit Managed Receivables (Most Comparable GAAP Measure: Net Finance Receivables plus Net Investment in Operating Leases) – Measure of Ford Credit’s total net receivables, excluding unearned interest supplements and residual support, allowance for credit losses, and other (primarily accumulated supplemental depreciation). The measure is useful to management and investors as it closely approximates the customer’s outstanding balance on the receivables, which is the basis for earning revenue.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Ford Credit Managed Leverage (Most Comparable GAAP Measure: Financial Statement Leverage) – Ford Credit’s debt-to-equity ratio adjusted (i) to exclude cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities (other than amounts related to insurance activities), and (ii) for derivative accounting. The measure is useful to investors because it reflects the way Ford Credit manages its business. Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities are deducted because they generally correspond to excess debt beyond the amount required to support operations and on-balance sheet securitization transactions. Derivative accounting adjustments are made to asset, debt, and equity positions to reflect the impact of interest rate instruments used with Ford Credit’s term-debt issuances and securitization transactions. Ford Credit generally repays its debt obligations as they mature, so the interim effects of changes in market interest rates are excluded in the calculation of managed leverage.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Total Company
Net income attributable to Ford. The chart below shows our secondfirst quarter 2018 key metrics for the Company.
Company revenue in the first quarter of 2018 was $42 billion, up 7% from a year ago, driven by higher volume from consolidated operations, favorable exchange-related effects, and higher net pricing. Revenue was up across all parts of the business except Middle East and Africa, with Europe delivering the greatest increase due to exchange and higher pricing on new products and to recover Brexit-related effects, with incentives holding flat year over year.
Wholesale volumes, at 1.7 million units, were down 2% compared with first quarter 2017, net income attributable to Ford.driven by lower volume at our unconsolidated China joint ventures. Volumes at consolidated operations were up about 3%.
Industry SAARs were up globally and in each region, with the largest growth coming from Asia Pacific, mainly China. Ford’s global market share was 6.5%, down 60 basis points year over year with declines in each region. This reflects mainly lower market share in China, the United States, and the United Kingdom.
Net income attributable to Ford in the secondfirst quarter of 20172018 was $2$1.7 billion or $0.51$0.43 diluted earnings per share of Common and Class B Stock, an increase of $72$144 million or $0.02$0.03 per share compared with the second quarter of 2016. Second quarter 2017 pre-tax results of our Automotive segment, Financial Services segment, All Other, and Special Items, as well as Taxes are discussed in the following sections in “Results of Operations.”from a year ago. The increase was more than explained by a lower effective tax rate.
Revenue. Company revenue in the second quarter of 2017 was $39.9 billion, $368 million higher than a year ago.
Cost of sales and Selling, administrative, and other expenses for the second quarter of 2017 were $36.1 billion, an increase of $0.8 billion. Cost of sales and Selling, administrative, and other expenses adjusted EBIT for the first halfquarter of 20172018 was $71.6$2.2 billion, down $335 million year over year. This was driven by Automotive, which delivered an increaseEBIT of $3.1 billion. The detail for$1.7 billion, down $443 million.

Company adjusted EBIT margin was 5.2% in the first quarter of 2018, down 1.2 percentage points from a year ago, reflecting Asia Pacific, North America, and Europe performance.
Company operating cash flow in the quarter was $3 billion, up $1 billion from a year ago due to higher distributions from Ford Credit, and our balance sheet remained strong, with cash and marketable securities of $27.6 billion and ample liquidity of more than $38 billion.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Equity. At June 30, 2017, total equity attributable to Ford was $32.2 billion, an increase of $3.1 billion compared with December 31, 2016. The detail for this change is shown below (in billions):

The chart below shows our secondfirst quarter 2017 total2018 net income attributable to Ford and Company adjusted pre-tax results and the pre-tax results of our Automotive segment, our Financial Services segment, and All Other, which is mainly net interest expense and the results of Ford Smart Mobility LLC.EBIT by segment.
Our total Company adjusted pre-tax profitAutomotive segment’s EBIT in the first quarter of 2018 was $1.7 billion. The lower year-over-year EBIT was caused by commodity cost increases of about $480 million, along with adverse exchange effects of about $240 million. These impacts were offset partially by higher net pricing, particularly in Europe, and higher volume from favorable stock changes in North America. The North America stock changes reflect pipeline fill for the secondnewly launched EcoSport and a stock build for Focus. Importantly, total cost excluding commodities was about flat compared to a year ago.
The increase in commodity cost was largely metals, driven, in part, by the market’s reaction to potential increases in U.S. tariffs. Nearly one-half of our full year exposure to commodity price changes was locked in as of the end of the first quarter of 20172018 due to fixed contracts or hedges in place.
In our Mobility segment, we incurred a loss of $102 million driven by autonomous vehicle development costs. These results benefited from a one-time gain on investments in Smart Mobility of about $58 million. The quarterly loss was $2.5 billion, $486$38 million lowerworse than a year ago, more than explained by increased investment in autonomy.
Our Ford Credit segment turned in a strong quarter, earning $641 million, $160 million higher than a year ago. Adjusted earnings per share of Common and Class B stockThe improvement was $0.56, up $0.04 per share comparedbroad-based, including growth in receivables globally. In the quarter, Ford Credit’s portfolio remained robust with the second quarter of 2016.
Our total Company adjusted pre-tax profit of $2.5 billion consisted of: Automotive segment profit of about $2.2 billion, a profit of $603 million in the Financial Services segment, and a loss of $287 million in All Other, largely net interest expense.
As shown below the chart, the Automotive segment profit decline fromhealthy U.S. consumer credit metrics, including an improved loss-to-receivables ratio. Auction values improved versus a year ago drove the lower total Company adjusted pre-tax profit.by about 1% at constant mix, and we now expect full year average auction values to decline just 1% to 2%. At March 31, 2018, Ford Credit’s managed leverage was 8.4 to 1, in line with our target of 8:1 to 9:1.
For the foreseeable future, Ford Credit plans to maintain its managed receivables at about the same level as at the end of first quarter 2018. Our focus is to maintain a strong risk profile for Ford and Ford Credit, balancing receivables, funding requirements, liquidity, profitability, and distributions. This will allow us to continue supporting auto sales while preserving capacity for future mobility initiatives. It will also enable relatively consistent distributions to Ford approximately equal to Ford Credit’s annual net income.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
AUTOMOTIVE SEGMENTAutomotive Segment
The chart below shows our first quarter 2018 Automotive segment EBIT by region.
In our Automotive segment, North America was the largest EBIT contributor earning $1.9 billion, down $195 million from a year ago, with an EBIT margin of 7.8%, down 1.1 percentage points. The year-over-year declines were more than explained by higher commodity cost. Market factors (volume, mix, and net pricing) were positive, and total cost was flat excluding commodities.
Outside North America in the Automotive segment, results were a combined loss of $203 million, with each region incurring a loss except Europe. The combined loss was $248 million worse than a year ago more than explained by Asia Pacific. Asia Pacific’s loss of $119 million was driven by a loss in Ford China. While we earned China equity income of $138 million, this was more than offset by engineering costs incurred by Ford for future products, including for newly localized entries, including Lincoln, as well as a loss for Lincoln as we continue to establish and grow the brand and the network. The China loss was offset partially by a profit in the rest of Asia Pacific. This includes a substantial improvement in India, although it still incurred a small loss. We also benefited in the quarter from record first quarter sales in the Asia Pacific markets outside of China.
In Europe, we earned an EBIT of $119 million, $90 million lower than a year ago. We delivered strong net pricing increases in the quarter. This was more than offset, however, by lower volume and unfavorable mix, adverse exchange due to sterling, and higher commodity cost. The adverse volume and mix were due mainly to a weaker industry and lower Ford market share in the United Kingdom as well as lower demand for diesel passenger vehicle derivatives in the region.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
In general, we measure year-over-year change in Automotive segment pre-tax resultsEBIT using the causal factors listed below, with net pricing and cost variances calculated at present-year volume and mix and exchange:
| |
◦ | Volume and Mix – primarily measures profitEBIT variance from changes in wholesale volumes (at prior-year average contribution margin per unit) driven by changes in industry volume, market share, and dealer stocks, as well as the profit variance resulting from changes in product mix, including mix among vehicle lines and mix of trim levels and options within a vehicle line |
| |
◦ | Net Pricing – primarily measures profitEBIT variance driven by changes in wholesale prices to dealers and marketing incentive programs such as rebate programs, low-rate financing offers, special lease offers, and stock adjustments on dealer inventory |
Contribution Costs – primarily measures profit variance driven by per-unit changes in cost categories that typically vary with volume, such as material costs (including commodity and component costs), warranty expense, and freight and duty costs
Structural Costs – primarily measures profit variance driven by absolute change in cost categories that typically do not have a directly proportionate relationship to production volume. Structural costs include the following cost categories:

Our second quarter 2017 Automotive pre-tax results by business unit are shown above. Automotive profit was driven by North America with EuropeItem 2. Management’s Discussion and Asia Pacific also profitable. Outside North America, other regions were about breakeven in total.Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
As shown below the chart, the decline in Automotive profit versus last year was due to North America and Europe; results improved in Asia Pacific, South America, and Middle East & Africa.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Shown above are the second quarter 2017 key metrics for our Automotive segment. Wholesale volume was down 3% from a year ago, while Automotive revenue was about flat.Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Global industry SAAR is estimated at 93.2 million units, up 4%; this was driven by Asia Pacific, Europe, and South America.
Global market share, at 7.4%, was down one-tenth of a percentage point, reflecting lower share in North America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. Market share improved in Asia Pacific and South America.
Automotive operating margin and pre-tax profit, at 5.9% and $2.2 billion, respectively, were both lower than a year ago.
As shown below the chart, first half 2017 Automotive revenue was up 2% year over year, while all other key metrics were lower.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Shown above are the factors that contributed to the $641 million decline in second quarter 2017 Automotive segment pre-tax profit. The lower profit is explained by higher commodity cost, with steel the largest factor, unfavorable exchange, and the non-repeat of a gain from an asset sale in North America last year.
Market factors were positive, driven by favorable mix and higher net pricing.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Shown above are the second quarter 2017 key metrics for North America. Revenue was up 3%, driven by the continued strong mix and higher net pricing. All other key metrics were flat to lower than a year ago.
North America SAAR, at 21 million units, and U.S. SAAR, at 17 million units, were both down 500,000 units from a year ago.
North America market share was down one-tenth of a percentage point, with U.S. share also down one-tenth of a point to 15.2%. This was driven by lower U.S. fleet sales. We gained share in the growing utilities and truck segments.
In the quarter, F-Series sales improved 7.4% compared to a year ago and gained share, reflecting our best second quarter sales performance since 2001. Ford-brand SUVs also had outstanding results, achieving record sales for the quarter. Lincoln continued to grow, up 3% with retail sales up 8%, delivering the brand’s best sales performance in a decade.
Operating margin was 9% and pre-tax profit was $2.2 billion, both lower than a year ago.
As shown below the chart, each of North America’s first half key metrics, except for revenue, was lower than a year ago.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
As shown above, North America’s pre-tax profit was $505 million lower than a year ago, reflecting mainly higher commodity cost and the non-repeat of last year’s gain on the sale of a majority of our stake in OEConnection LLC.
Market factors were positive due to favorable mix and higher net pricing. The mix reflects primarily the continued strength of F-Series.
For 2017, we continue to expect North America operating margin and profit to be lower than 2016, mainly due to higher commodity cost and increased engineering expense, mainly for utility and autonomous vehicles. Exchange is also expected to be unfavorable.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
As shown above, the metrics continue to demonstrate the disciplined approach we take to our business. This is true everywhere we operate, but highlighted here for North America.
Our year-over-year average transaction price in the U.S. in the second quarter of 2017 grew nearly five times faster than the industry due to the strength of F-Series. In the quarter, F-Series transaction prices were up over $3,100 per unit compared to a year ago, outpacing the overall segment increase of $1,400 per unit, reflecting strong customer demand for high-level trim series on both Super Duty and F-150, including the Raptor.
We also continued our disciplined approach to incentives. While industry incentives as a percent of vehicle price were up in the second quarter, our levels were slightly lower as we managed supply and demand well and benefited from the strength of our products.
Our U.S. stocks remain in good shape and we continue to take a disciplined approach to match supply to demand.
Ford’s days supply tend to be slightly higher than industry average because of our stronger position in trucks and the associated larger number of product configurations we offer, a Ford strength.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
All key metrics for South America in the second quarter of 2017 improved from a year ago -- our third consecutive quarter of improvement across the board.
The top-line improved with wholesale volume up 12% and revenue up 18%. The higher volume was driven by higher industry and improved market share, while the higher revenue was due to the volume increase and higher pricing.
Industry SAAR for the region, at 4.2 million units, was up 17%, or 600,000 units. Brazil SAAR, at 2.3 million units, was up 15%, or 300,000 units. The increase was the first quarterly year-over-year improvement in Brazil in four years.
Our market share for the region, at 9.2%, was up five-tenths of a percentage point due to strong sales of Ka.
Operating margin and pre-tax results for the region both improved sharply from a year ago.
As shown below the chart, each of South America’s key metrics improved significantly in the first half from a year ago.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
As shown above, South America’s second quarter 2017 pre-tax result improved $80 million compared to a year ago due to higher net pricing and volume.
Total cost was about flat as we continued to improve the fitness of our business while inflation and exchange effects moderated.
For 2017, we continue to expect South America’s loss to improve from last year as a result of favorable market factors as the economy continues to recover. We expect most of the full year improvement to occur in the second half as the economy gains momentum.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Shown above are the second quarter 2017 key metrics for Europe. We delivered our ninth consecutive quarterly profit, but all key metrics were lower.
The top line declined with wholesale volume down 13% and revenue down 12% from a year ago. The lower wholesales were driven by a decrease in dealer stocks this quarter compared to an increase a year ago. This reflects the launch effect of the all-new Fiesta. The lower revenue was driven by the lower volume and adverse exchange.
Europe SAAR, at 20.7 million units, was 5% higher than a year ago, including the first quarterly year-over-year improvement in Russia since fourth quarter of 2012.
Market share, at 7.3%, was down two-tenths of a percentage point, driven by Fiesta. Commercial vehicle share improved, and Ford remained Europe’s best-selling commercial vehicle brand in the second quarter.
Europe’s operating margin was 1.2% and pre-tax profit was $88 million, both lower than a year ago.
As shown below the chart, our year-to-date market share was flat compared to a year ago. Top line metrics were down modestly, while operating margin and profit were down more sharply.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Europe’s second quarter 2017 pre-tax profit was $379 million lower than a year ago, reflecting the weaker sterling and lower U.K. industry resulting from Brexit, the launch effects of the all-new Fiesta, and higher commodity cost.
Although not shown, results in Russia continued to improve.
For 2017, we continue to expect Europe to remain profitable, although at levels below 2016. This is due mainly to Brexit effects and higher commodity cost. Favorable market factors and continued improvement in Russia will be a partial offset.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Shown above are the key metrics for Middle East & Africa for the second quarter of 2017, where our pre-tax result improved from a year ago despite declines in all other key metrics.
The top line was down due to lower wholesale volume, largely reflecting lower share and lower industry in the Middle East.
Industry SAAR for the region, at 3.7 million units, was down 100,000 units from 2016. Within this, the markets where we participate declined 300,000 units.
Our market share was 3.4%, down 1.2 percentage points, mostly reflecting performance in the Middle East.
As shown below chart, each of the key metrics in the first half was lower compared with a year ago because of volume declines as a result of lower industry volume and market performance in the Middle East.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
As shown above, Middle East & Africa’s second quarter 2017 pre-tax result improved $12 million from a year ago.
The better result was due to favorable cost performance, reflecting mainly lower material and freight and distribution costs, and favorable exchange. This was partially offset by lower volume driven by market performance and lower industry volume in the Middle East, along with related dealer stock adjustments.
For 2017, we continue to expect results in Middle East & Africa to improve compared to 2016 due to lower cost and favorable exchange with lower volume a partial offset.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Asia Pacific’s second quarter 2017 key metrics are shown above, where we delivered a pre-tax profit of$143 million with all key metrics improving from a year ago.
Wholesale volume increased by 7% and revenue from consolidated operations increased by 21%, reflecting the strength of our full line up of SUVs and continued growth of Lincoln in China.
Asia Pacific SAAR was 43.7 million units, up 2.3 million units, driven by a 1.9 million unit increase in China SAAR, estimated at 27.2 million units.
Asia Pacific market share was 3.7%, up one-tenth of a percentage point due to higher share in China because of strong JMC commercial vehicle gains and Lincoln performance.
Asia Pacific’s operating margin and pre-tax profit both increased significantly from a year ago.
In the quarter, our China joint ventures contributed $195 million to pre-tax profit, reflecting our equity share of the JVs’ after-tax earnings. This was $101 million lower than last year due mainly to lower investment incentives and unfavorable exchange. Net income margin was 10.7%, down 5.4 percentage points.
As shown below the chart, all key metrics except market share improved in the first half versus a year ago.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
As shown above, Asia Pacific’s second quarter 2017 pre-tax profit was $151 million higher than a year ago, driven by higher volume and mix. This reflects higher share and industry volume in China, favorable stock adjustments for Ford brand imports to China, and favorable mix in Australia.
China drove lower net industry pricing and unfavorable exchange.
Our results in markets outside of China improved compared to a year ago, particularly in Australia and India.
For 2017, we continue to expect Asia Pacific’s pre-tax profit to improve from 2016 due to favorable volume and mix and lower cost. Partial offsets will be lower net industry pricing in China and unfavorable exchange because of a weaker RMB.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Ford Credit Segment
In general, we measure year-over-year changes in Ford Credit’s pre-tax resultsEBT using the causal factors listed below:
Volume and Mix:
| |
◦ | Volume primarily measures changes in net financing margin driven by changes in average managed receivables at prior period financing margin yield (defined below in financing margin) at prior period exchange rates. Volume changes are primarily driven by the volume of new and used vehicle sales and leases, the extent to which Ford Credit purchases retail installment sale and lease contracts, the extent to which Ford Credit provides wholesale financing, the sales price of the vehicles financed, the level of dealer inventories, Ford-sponsored special financing programs available exclusively through Ford Credit, and the availability of cost-effective funding for the purchase of retail installment sale and lease contracts and to provide wholesale financing |
| |
◦ | Mix primarily measures changes in net financing margin driven by period over period changes in the composition of Ford Credit’s average managed receivables by product and by country or region |
•Financing Margin:
| |
◦ | Financing margin variance is the period-to-period change in financing margin yield multiplied by the present period average managed receivables at prior period exchange rates. This calculation is performed at the product and country level and then aggregated. Financing margin yield equals revenue, less interest expense and scheduled depreciation for the period, divided by average managed receivables for the same period |
| |
◦ | Financing margin changes are driven by changes in revenue and interest expense. Changes in revenue are primarily driven by the level of market interest rates, cost assumptions in pricing, mix of business, and competitive environment. Changes in interest expense are primarily driven by the level of market interest rates, borrowing spreads, and asset-liability management |
| |
◦ | Credit loss is the change in the provision for credit losses at prior period exchange rates. For analysis purposes, management splits the provision for credit losses into net charge-offs and the change in the allowance for credit losses |
| |
◦ | Net charge-off changes are primarily driven by the number of repossessions, severity per repossession, and recoveries. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are primarily driven by changes in historical trends in credit losses and recoveries, changes in the composition and size of Ford Credit’s present portfolio, changes in trends in historical used vehicle values, and changes in economic conditions. For additional information, on the allowance for credit losses, refer to the “Critical Accounting Estimates - Allowance for Credit Losses” section of Item 7 of Part II of our 20162017 Form 10-K Report |
| |
◦ | Lease residual measures changes to residual performance at prior period exchange rates. For analysis purposes, management splits residual performance primarily into residual gains and losses, and the change in accumulated supplemental depreciation |
| |
◦ | Residual gain and loss changes are primarily driven by the number of vehicles returned to Ford Credit and sold, and the difference between the auction value and the depreciated value (which includes both base and accumulated supplemental depreciation) of the vehicles sold. Changes in accumulated supplemental depreciation are primarily driven by changes in Ford Credit’s estimate of the expected auction value at the end of the lease term, and changes in the estimate of the number of vehicles that will be returned to it and sold. For additional information, on accumulated supplemental depreciation, refer to the “Critical Accounting Estimates - Accumulated Depreciation on Vehicles Subject to Operating Leases” section of Item 7 of Part II of our 20162017 Form 10-K Report |
Exchange:
| |
◦ | Reflects changes in pre-tax resultsEBT driven by the effects of converting functional currency income to U.S. dollars |
| |
◦ | Primarily includes operating expenses, other revenue, and insurance expenses at prior period exchange rates |
| |
◦ | Changes in operating expenses are primarily driven by salaried personnel costs, facilities costs, and costs associated with the origination and servicing of customer contracts |
| |
◦ | In general, other revenue changes are primarily driven by changes in earnings related to market valuation adjustments to derivatives (primarily related to movements in interest rates) and other miscellaneous items |
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
In addition, the following definitions and calculations apply to Ford Credit when used in this report:
Cash (as shown on the Funding Structure, Liquidity Sources, and Leverage charts) – Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, excluding amounts related to insurance activities
Earnings Before Taxes (EBT) – Reflects Ford Credit’s income before income taxes
Return on Equity (ROE) (as shown on the Key Metrics chart) – Reflects return on equity calculated by annualizing net income for the period and dividing by average equity for the period
Securitizations (as shown on the Public Term Funding Plan chart) – Public securitizations, Rule 144A offerings sponsored by Ford Motor Credit, and widely distributed offerings by Ford Credit Canada
Term Asset-Backed Securities (as shown on the Funding Structure chart) – Obligations issued in securitization transactions that are payable only out of collections on the underlying securitized assets and related enhancements
Total Debt (as shown on the Leverage chart) – Debt on Ford Credit’s balance sheet. Includes debt issued in securitizations and payable only out of collections on the underlying securitized assets and related enhancements. 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

As shown above, Ford Credit’s secondThe charts below detail first quarter 2018 key metrics and the change in first quarter 2018 EBT compared with first quarter 2017 pre-tax profit improvement of $219 million from a year ago was driven by most factors. The favorable volume and mix reflects primarily growth in retail receivables globally. Improved credit loss performance is due to a smaller increase in reserves, offset partially by higher losses.causal factor for the Ford Credit segment.
Recent auction value performance has been better than expected. As a result, Ford Credit’s year-over-year lease residual performance was flat. Derivatives market valuation was favorable, reflecting primarily higher interest rates in Canada and the United Kingdom in the second quarter of 2017, versus the Brexit effect of lower rates globally in the second quarter of 2016.
For the remainder of 2017, Ford Credit continues to plan for lower auction values; however, Ford Credit’s outlook for full-year supplemental depreciation has improved, reflecting the latest third party valuations. Ford Credit’s full-year pre-tax profit is now expected to be higher than $1.5 billion, reflecting an improved lease residual outlook, along with higher volume, financing margin, and a strong cost focus. Ford Credit’s pre-tax profit in the second half of 2017 is expected to be lower than in the first half of the year due to seasonally higher credit losses and operating costs, along with adverse lease residual performance.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
In the second quarter of 2017, lease share was lower compared to a year ago and remains below the industry average. In addition, Ford Credit’s lease portfolio continues to be smaller than major competitors.
Ford Credit’s off-lease auction values in the second quarter were lower than a year ago, but higher than the prior quarter. Three-year auction values in the quarter were down less than 5% year-over-year.
Ford Credit is encouraged by the relative strength of the used vehicle market given the increase in off-lease volume; however, it continues to plan for three-year full year auction values to be down about 6% at constant mix.
The second quarter repossession ratio was higher than last year but down seasonally from first quarter and remains within expectations. Severity is higher than last year but lower than first quarter, reflecting primarily improvements in auction values.
Charge-offs and LTR were higher than last year but seasonally lower than first quarter.
Credit quality remains strong reflecting a strong business environment and healthy consumer credit conditions.

This increase is more than explained by higher net interest expense, higher net lossesThe non-recurrence of gains on cash equivalents and marketable securities and Ford Smart Mobility LLC’s results.more than explains the greater loss.
SPECIAL ITEMSInterest on Debt
Interest on Debt consists of interest expense on Automotive and other debt. First quarter 2018 interest expense on Automotive and other debt was $289 million, $4 million lower than a year ago.
Special Items
In Note 1718 of the Notes to the Financial Statements, special items are reflected as a separate reconciling item, as opposed to being allocated among the Automotive segment, Financial ServicesMobility segment, and All Other.Ford Credit segment. This reflects the fact that management excludes these items from its review of operating segment results for purposes of measuring segment profitability and allocating resources.
Our pre-tax and tax special items were as follows:
Taxes
Our tax provision in first quarter 2018 was $174 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 9.1%. The effective tax rate includes a $235 million benefit for non-U.S. capital loss carryforwards expected to be realized in the foreseeable future. Our first quarter 2018 adjusted effective tax rate, which excludes special items, was 9.0%.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
TAXES
Our tax provisions for the second quarter and first six months of 2017 were $209 million and $858 million, respectively, resulting in GAAP effective tax rates of 9.3% and 19.1%, respectively.
Our second quarter and first six months 2017 non-GAAP adjusted effective tax rates, which exclude special items, were 10.2% and 18.8%, respectively, 19.9 and 10.2 percentage points lower than a year ago, reflecting the realization of benefits from foreign tax credits in the second quarter of 2017.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Company excluding Ford Credit
Automotive Segment
Liquidity. One of our key priorities is to maintain a strong balance sheet, while at the same time having resources available to invest in and grow our business. Based on our planning assumptions, we believe we have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to continue to invest in new products and services, that customers want and value, transform and grow our business, pay our debts and obligations as and when they come due, pay a sustainable regular dividend at the current level, and provide protection within an uncertain global economic environment.
Our key balance sheet metrics include totalcompany cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and restricted cash, excluding Ford Credit’s cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities (collectively “Automotive“Company cash”), AutomotiveCompany liquidity, which includes AutomotiveCompany cash and total available committed credit lines, and cash net of debt.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
At June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, we had $28.4$27.6 billion of AutomotiveCompany cash, of which 82% waswith 84% held by consolidated entities domiciled in the United States. We target to have an average ongoing AutomotiveCompany cash balance of about $20 billion. We expect to have periods when we will be above or below this amount due to: (i) future cash flow expectations, such as for pension contributions, debt maturities, capital investments, investments in future opportunities, capital investments, debt maturities, pension contributions, or restructuring requirements, (ii) short-term timing differences, and (iii) changes in the global economic environment.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Our AutomotiveCompany cash investments primarily include U.S. Department of Treasury obligations, federal agency securities, bank time deposits with investment-grade institutions, corporate investment-grade securities, commercial paper rated A-1/P-1 or higher, and debt obligations of a select group of non-U.S. governments, non-U.S. governmental agencies, and supranational institutions. The average maturity of these investments is approximately one year and is adjusted based on market conditions and liquidity needs. We monitor our AutomotiveCompany cash levels and average maturity on a daily basis.
In addition to our target AutomotiveCompany cash balance, we also target to maintain a corporate credit facility, discussed below, for our Automotive business of about $10 billion to protect against exogenous shocks. We assess the appropriate long-term target for total AutomotiveCompany liquidity, which includes AutomotiveCompany cash and the Automotive portion of the corporate credit facility, to be about $30 billion, which is an amount we believe is sufficient to support our business priorities and to protect our business. At June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, we had $39.3$38.6 billion of AutomotiveCompany liquidity. Our AutomotiveWe may reduce our Company cash and Automotive liquidity targets could be reduced over time, based on improved operating performance and changes in our risk profile.
Changes in AutomotiveCompany Cash. Beginning in 2018, we are reporting Company operating cash flow, which includes Automotive, Mobility, Corporate Other, and Interest on Debt cash flows, as well as Ford Credit distributions. Prior to 2018, Ford Credit distributions were reported as a non-operating cash flow.
Changes in AutomotiveCompany cash are summarized below (in billions):below:
In managing our Automotive business, we classify changes in AutomotiveCompany cash into operating and other items. Operating items include: Automotive segment pre-tax profits,Company adjusted EBIT excluding Ford Credit, capital spending, depreciation and tooling amortization, changes in working capital, Ford Credit distributions, and Allall other and timing differences. Non-operating items include: separation payments, other transactions with other segments,Ford Credit, acquisitions and divestitures, changes in Automotive debt, contributions to funded pension plans, and shareholder distributions.

Capital spending was $1.5$1.8 billion in the secondfirst quarter of 2017, and our2018. Our outlook for full year capital spending remainsis expected to peak at about $7.5 billion in 2018 and decline to about $7 billion for the full year. Based on expected cash flows and the identification of additional opportunities for profitable growth, the ongoing amount of capital spending to support product development, growth, restructuring, and infrastructure is now expected to be about $8 billion annually throughstarting in 2020.
Shareholder distributions were about $1.2 billion in the first quarter of 2018, including a supplemental dividend of about $500 million and anti-dilutive share repurchases wereof about $700 million in the second quarter of 2017. For the$100 million. We expect full year we expect distributions to beof about $2.7$3 billion.
With respect to “Changes in working capital,” in general we carry relatively low Automotive segment trade receivables compared with our trade payables because the majority of our Automotive wholesales are financed (primarily by Ford Credit) immediately upon sale of vehicles to dealers, which generally occurs at the time the vehicles are gate-released shortly after being produced. In addition, our inventories are lean because we build to order, not for inventory. In contrast, our Automotive trade payables are based primarily on industry-standard production supplier payment terms generally ranging between 30 days to 45 days. As a result, our cash flow tends to improve as wholesale volumes increase, but can deteriorate significantly when wholesale volumes drop sharply. These working capital balances generally are subject to seasonal changes that can impact cash flow. For example, we typically experience cash flow timing differences associated with inventories and payables due to our annual summer and December shutdown periods, when production, and therefore inventories and wholesale volumes, are usually at their lowest levels, while payables continue to come due and be paid. The net impact of this typically results in cash outflows from changes in our working capital balances during these shutdown periods.
Available Credit Lines. Total committed AutomotiveCompany credit lines excluding Ford Credit at June 30, 2017March 31, 2018 were $11.9$12 billion, consisting of $10.4 billion of our corporate credit facility and $1.5$1.6 billion of local credit facilities for use by our non-U.S. Automotive affiliates.facilities. At June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, the utilized portion of the corporate credit facility was about $35 million, representing amounts utilized for letters of credit. At June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, the utilized portion of the local credit facilities was about $980 million.$1.1 billion.
Our corporate credit facility was amended as of April 28, 2017 to extend the maturities by one year. Lenders under our corporate credit facility have commitments to us totaling $13.4 billion, with 75% of the commitments maturing on April 30, 2022 and 25% of the commitments maturing on April 30, 2020. We have allocated $3 billion of commitments to Ford Credit on an irrevocable and exclusive basis to support its growth and liquidity. AnyWe would guarantee any borrowings by Ford Credit under the corporate credit facility would be guaranteed by us.facility.
The corporate credit facility is unsecured and free of material adverse change conditions to borrowing, restrictive financial covenants (for example, interest or fixed charge coverage ratio, debt-to-equity ratio, and minimum net worth requirements), and credit rating triggers that could limit our ability to obtain funding. The corporate credit facility contains a liquidity covenant that requires us to maintain a minimum of $4 billion in aggregate of domestic cash, cash equivalents, and loaned and marketable securities and/or availability under the facility. If our senior, unsecured, long-term debt does not maintain at least two investment grade ratings from Fitch, Moody’s, and S&P (each as defined under “Credit Ratings” below), the guarantees of certain subsidiaries will be required.
We are in the process of amending our corporate credit facility, with the closing scheduled to occur on April 26, 2018. When complete, we expect to maintain total commitments of $13.4 billion, extend the respective maturity dates by one year, and maintain the $3 billion allocation to Ford Credit.
Debt. TotalAt March 31, 2018, Company debt excluding Ford Credit was $16.4 billion and Automotive debt at June 30, 2017 was $16.2 billion, which is $280$15.8 billion. Both balances were about $100 million higherlower than at December 31, 2016. The increase is more than explained by an increase in local debt in international markets (including the impact of the adoption of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers) and foreign currency exchange effects, partially offset by debt repayments.2017.
Leverage. We manage Automotive debt levels with a leverage framework to maintain strong, investment grade credit ratings through a normal business cycle. The leverage framework includes a ratio of Automotive debt, underfunded pension liabilities, operating leases, and other adjustments, divided by Automotive income before income tax,Company adjusted EBIT, excluding Ford Credit EBT, and further adjusted for depreciation, amortization, interest expense on Automotive debt, and other adjustments. Ford Credit’s leverage is calculated as a separate business as described in the Liquidity - Financial ServicesFord Credit section of Item 2. Ford Credit is self-funding and its debt, which is used to fund its operations, is separate from our Automotive debt.

Financial Services Segment
Ford Credit Segment
Funding Overview. Ford Credit’s primary funding and liquidity objective is to be well capitalized with a strong, investment grade balance sheet and ample liquidity to support its financing activities and growth under a variety of market conditions, including short-term and long-term market disruptions. Ford Credit’s funding strategy remains focused on diversification, and it plans to continue accessing a variety of markets, channels, and investors.
Ford Credit’s liquidity profile continues to be diverse, robust, and focused on maintaining liquidity levels that meet its business and funding requirements. Ford Credit annually stress tests its balance sheet and liquidity to ensure that it continues to meet its financial obligations through economic cycles.
Funding Portfolio. The chart below shows the trends in funding for Ford Credit’s managed receivables:
Managed receivables of $142$156 billion as of June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, were funded primarily with term debt and term asset-backed securities. Securitized funding as a percent of managed receivables was 34%36%.
Ford Credit expects the mix of securitized funding to remain around 35%. The calendarization of the funding plan will result in quarterly fluctuations of the securitized funding percentage.
In April 2017, FCE Bank plc launched retail deposits in the United Kingdom backed by the U.K. Financial Service Compensation Scheme, which further diversifies its funding. As of June 30, 2017, retail deposits represented about $100 million of funding.

Public Term Funding Plan. The following chart shows Ford Credit’s issuances for full-year 20152016 and 2016,2017, planned issuances for full-year 2017,2018, and its global public term funding issuances through July 25, 2017,April 24, 2018, excluding short-term funding programs:
For 2017, Ford Credit’s full-year forecast fortotal unsecured public term funding plan is categorized by currency of issuance. Ford Credit plans to issue its European debt from the United States. For 2018, Ford Credit projects full-year public term funding in the range of $26$24 billion to $31 billion. The range is lower than the prior forecast reflecting higher utilization of private ABS facilities to align to Ford Credit’s liquidity target and lower receivables growth. As noted, Ford Credit plans to maintain its managed receivables level for the foreseeable future at about the same level as at the end of first quarter 2018. Through July 25, 2017,April 24, 2018, Ford Credit has completed over $17$11 billion of public term issuance.

Liquidity. Ford Credit defines gross liquidity as cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities (excluding amounts related to insurance activities) and committed capacity (which includes its credit and asset-backed facilities and bank lines), less utilization of liquidity. Utilization of liquidity is the amount funded under Ford Credit’s liquidity sources and also includes the cash and cash equivalents required to support securitization transactions. Securitization cash is cash held for the benefit of the securitization investors (for example, a reserve fund). Net liquidity available for use is defined as gross liquidity less certain adjustments for asset-backed capacity in excess of eligible receivables and cash related to the Ford Credit Revolving Extended Variable-utilization program (“FordREV”), which can be accessed through future sales of receivables. While not included in available liquidity, these adjustments represent additional funding sources for future originations
The following chart shows Ford Credit’s liquidity sources and utilization:
Ford Credit’s liquidity available for use will fluctuate quarterly based on factors including near-term debt maturities, receivable growth, and timing of funding transactions. Ford Credit targets liquidity of at least $25 billion. At June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, Ford Credit’s liquidity available for use was $1.5$1.3 billion higherlower than at year-end 20162017 and $0.8$1.1 billion lower than at March 31, 2017.
As of June 30, 2017, Ford Credit’s liquidity remained strong at $28.5 billion. Ford Credit’s sources of liquidity include cash, committed asset-backed facilities, unsecured credit facilities, and the corporate credit facility allocation. As of June 30, 2017, Ford Credit’s liquidity sources totaled $48.1 billion, down $2.8 billion from year-end 2016.

Leverage. Ford Credit uses leverage, or the debt-to-equity ratio, to make various business decisions, including evaluating and establishing pricing for finance receivable and operating lease financing, and assessing its capital structure.
The chart below shows the calculation of Ford Credit’s financial statement leverage and managed leverage:
Ford Credit plans its managed leverage by considering prevailing market conditions and the risk characteristics of its business. At June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, Ford Credit’s financial statement leverage was 9.3:9.1:1, and its managed leverage was 8.8:8.4:1. Ford Credit targets managed leverage in the range of 8:1 to 9:1.

Total Company
Pension Plans - Underfunded Balances. As of June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, our total Company pension underfunded status reported on our balance sheet was $8.3$6.3 billion and reflects the net underfunded status at December 31, 20162017, updated for service and interest cost, expected return on assets, separation expense, interim remeasurement expense, actual benefit payments, and cash contributions. The discount rate and rate of expected return assumptions are unchanged from year-end 2016,2017, and the reported number does not reflect anythe impact from the changesany change in interest rates or asset returns since year-end 2016.2017.

CREDIT RATINGS
Our short-term and long-term debt is rated by four credit rating agencies designated as nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (“NRSROs”) by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission:
•DBRS Limited (“DBRS”);
•Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”);
•Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”); and
Standard & Poor’s•S&P Global Ratings Services, a division of McGraw Hill Financial (“S&P”).
In several markets, locally-recognized rating agencies also rate us. A credit rating reflects an assessment by the rating agency of the credit risk associated with a corporate entity or particular securities issued by that entity. Rating agencies’ ratings of us are based on information provided by us and other sources. Credit ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell, or hold securities, and are subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency. Each rating agency may have different criteria for evaluating company risk and, therefore, ratings should be evaluated independently for each rating agency.
There have been no rating actions taken by these NRSROs since the filing of our Quarterly Report on2017 Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.10-K Report.
The following chart summarizes certain of the credit ratings and outlook presently assigned by these four NRSROs:

GDP AND INDUSTRY PLANNING ASSUMPTIONS
Based on the current environment, our GDP and industry planning assumptions include the following:
Since the filing of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, we have updated our expectations for full year industry sales for the United States, Brazil, Europe, and China.
We are adjusting our 2017 guidance for the United States down to 17.5 million units, primarily because of a weaker fleet industry during the first half of the year. Retail volume remains slightly below our assumptions.
We have raised our outlook for Brazil to 2.3 million units based on second quarter volume, but we are monitoring the political risks.
In Europe, we expect industry volume to be slightly higher compared to our prior guidance for 2017, reflecting gains across most EU20 markets, with the exception of the United Kingdom.
In China, we expect industry volume at 28 million units in 2017 to be supported by a stabilizing economy and the continued tax incentive for vehicles with small displacement engines.

OUTLOOK
Based on the current economic environment, our Company guidance for 20172018 includes the following:
Effective this quarter, we are modifyingLooking at the full year, our approach to Company guidance adoptingreflects the following:
Company revenue to be modestly higher than 2017;
Company adjusted EPS to be in a range of adjusted earnings per share. For 2017, our full year guidance is for an adjusted EPS range$1.45 to $1.70;
Company operating cash flow to be positive and about the same as 2017;
Pension contributions of $1.65 to $1.85. This reflects different potential outcomes for market factorsabout $500 million;
Capital spending of about $7.5 billion; and cost performance, including warranty expense, over the balance of the year. It also reflects an
An adjusted effective tax rate of about 15%, which is substantially more favorable than prior guidance and reflects 2017 planned actions to bring foreign tax credits onto our balance sheet. We would expect to return to a more normal adjusted effective tax rate, about 30%, after this year.
Our prior guidance implied a full year adjusted EPS of $1.58. The improvement in our range of adjusted EPS versus the implied $1.58 is more than explained by the lower tax rate.In addition:
For the full year, we are guiding to lower EBIT in North America due to higher commodity cost and higher spending to support future growth.
We expect to incur a loss in Asia Pacific again in the second quarter of 2018, with profits returning in the second half of the year as we expect total Company adjusted pre-tax profitbegin to launch 16 new products. For the full year, EBIT will be lower thandriven by our first-half performance, with the first half, consistent with historical experience. The third quarter is expected to be the lowest quarterly profitrun rate of the year due to seasonal factors andbusiness strengthening through the launch of the Expedition and Lincoln Navigator.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)fourth quarter.
For the full year, we expect EBIT in Europe to improve from 2017 levels due to a heavy mix of new products, which should drive strongly higher net pricing. From the end of 2017 through 2019, Europe will benefit from an 88% volume-weighted mix of all-new or significantly new products.
Our business unit guidanceFor the full year, we expect Ford Credit EBT to be flat-to-lower than 2017 as we continue to plan for 2017 includes the following:lower financing margins due to rising interest rates. While we expect auction values to trend better than our initial expectations, we expect them to be down slightly year-over-year.
The business unit guidance above provides our latest assessment of full year 2017 “puts and takes” for each region or segment compared to results in 2016.
We are reassessing our 2018 guidance and will provide an updated view at a future date.

June 30,March 31, 2018 and 2017 and 2016 has not been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”). In reviewing such information, PwC has applied limited procedures in accordance with professional standards for reviews of interim financial information.

PwC is not subject to the liability provisions of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 for its reports on interim financial information, because such reports do not constitute “reports” or “parts” of registration statements prepared or certified by PwC within the meaning of Sections 7 and 11 of the Securities Act of 1933.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Automotive Segment
Foreign Currency Risk. The net fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts (including adjustments for credit risk), as of March 31, 2018, was an asset of $104 million, compared with a liability of $22 million as of December 31, 2016, was an asset of $528 million compared with an asset of $227 million as of June 30, 2017. The potential decrease in fair value from a 10% adverse change in the underlying exchange rates, in U.S. dollar terms, was $2.7$2.8 billion at both March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2016 and June 30, 2017.
Commodity Price Risk. The net fair value of commodity forward contracts (including adjustments for credit risk) as of DecemberMarch 31, 20162018, was an asseta liability of $5$21 million, compared with an asset of $9$33 million as of June 30,at December 31, 2017. The potential decrease in fair value from a 10% adverse change in the underlying commodity prices, in U.S. dollar terms, was $54$62 million at March 31, 2018, compared with $69 million at December 31, 2016, compared with $56 million at June 30, 2017.
Financial ServicesFord Credit Segment
Interest Rate Risk. To provide a quantitative measure of the sensitivity of its pre-tax cash flow to changes in interest rates, Ford Credit uses interest rate scenarios that assume a hypothetical, instantaneous increase or decrease of one percentage point in all interest rates across all maturities (a “parallel shift”), as well as a base case that assumes that all interest rates remain constant at existing levels. The differences in pre-tax cash flow between these scenarios and the base case over a 12-month period represent an estimate of the sensitivity of Ford Credit’s pre-tax cash flow. Under this model, Ford Credit estimates that at June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, all else constant, such an increase in interest rates would increasedecrease its pre-tax cash flow by $5$17 million over the next 12 months, compared with an increase of $21$14 million at December 31, 20162017. In reality, interest rate changes are rarely instantaneous or parallel and rates could move more or less than the one percentage point assumed in Ford Credit’s analysis. As a result, the actual impact to pre-tax cash flow could be higher or lower than the results detailed above.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. James P. Hackett, our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), and Bob Shanks, our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), have performed an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), as of June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, and each has concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the CEO and CFO to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Mark Fields, President and Chief Executive Officer, retired effective May 22, 2017. He was succeeded by James P. Hackett, formerly chairman of Ford Smart Mobility LLC.There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings.
Notice of Violation to Ford Dearborn Truck Plant. As reported in our 2016 Form 10-K Report, on December 26, 2015, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) issued a notice of violation to our Dearborn Truck Plant. EPA alleges that the plant violated several requirements related to its air permit. We have reached an agreement with EPA to resolve the matter for $389,000.
ITEM 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
On February 15, 2018, we issued 8.6 million shares of Ford Common Stock valued at $96 million to certain stockholders of Autonomic, Inc. (“Autonomic”) as part of the merger consideration in conjunction with Ford’s acquisition of Autonomic. The issuance was made in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, afforded by Regulation D thereunder. Each recipient of the shares represented to us that he or she was an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act, was not acquiring the shares with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution of the shares within the meaning of the Securities Act, and had received and had access to adequate information about Ford. Approximately 8.2 million of the shares will vest over four years beginning February 2019. The remaining shares have various vesting schedules, with the first tranche vesting in May 2018. All of the shares are subject to restrictions on transfer.
In the secondfirst quarter of 2017,2018, we completedrepurchased shares of Ford Common Stock from our employees or directors related to certain exercises of stock options, in accordance with our various compensation plans. We also repurchased shares through a modest anti-dilutive share repurchase program to offset the dilutive effect of share-based compensation granted during 2017.2018 and the shares issued as part of the Autonomic transaction described above. The plan authorized repurchases of up to 11.828.5 million shares of Ford Common Stock.
