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, ~~2017~~2018 (“~~2017~~2018 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,~~2019, we changed our accounting method for ~~U.S. inventories~~reporting early termination losses related to ~~a first-in, first-out basis from a last-in, first-out basis.~~customer defaults on Ford Credit’s vehicles subject to operating leases. Previously, we presented the early termination loss reserve on operating leases due to customer default events as part of the allowance for credit losses within Net investment in operating leases. We now consider the effects of operating lease early terminations when determining depreciation estimates, which are included as part of accumulated depreciation within Net investment in operating leases.

~~NOTE 2. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS~~ ~~(Continued)~~

~~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 on 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 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 process of cataloging our existing lease contracts and implementing changes to our systems.

The amount of consideration we receive and revenue we recognize on our vehicles, parts, and accessories varies with changes in marketing incentives and returns we offer to our customers and their customers. As a result of changes in our estimate of marketing incentives, we recorded a decrease related to revenue recognized in prior periods of $718 million and $481 million in the first quarter of 2018 and 2019, respectively.

We sell separately-priced service contracts that extend mechanical and maintenance coverages beyond our base warranty agreements to vehicle owners (“extended service contracts”). At December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2018, $3.8 billion and $4 billion, respectively, of unearned revenue associated with outstanding contracts was reported in Other liabilities and deferred revenue. We recognized$298 million and $305 million of the unearned amounts as revenue during the first quarter of 2018 and 2019, respectively. At March 31, 2019, the unearned amount was $4 billion. We expect to recognize approximately $900 million of the unearned amount in the remainder of 2019, $1.1 billion in 2020, and $2 billion thereafter.

Amounts paid to dealers to obtain these contracts are deferred and recorded as Other assets. We had a balance of $247 million and $256 million in deferred costs as of December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019, respectively, and recognized $18 million and $19 million of amortization during the first quarter of 2018 and 2019, respectively.

~~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 continue to be recognized as expense when the products are sold. We recognize revenue for vehicle service contracts that extend mechanical and maintenance coverages beyond our base warranties over the life of the contract. 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 recorded a decrease to revenue recognized in prior periods of $610 million and $718 million in the first quarter of 2017 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.~~

~~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 contract inception and recognize revenue over the term of the agreement in proportion to the costs we expect to incur in satisfying the 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.~~ ~~We recognized$270 million and $298 million of the unearned amounts as revenue during the first quarter of 2017 and 2018, respectively. At March 31, 2018, the unearned amount was $3.9 billion~~. ~~We expect to recognize approximately $900 million of the unearned amount in the remainder of 2018, $1 billion in 2019, and $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 $232 million and $244 million in deferred costs as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018, respectively, and recognized $15 million and $18 million of amortization during the first quarter of 2017 and 2018, respectively.

~~NOTE 3. REVENUE~~ ~~(Continued)~~

~~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.~~

~~Ford Credit Segment~~

~~Leasing Income.~~ Ford Credit offers leasing plans to retail consumers through Ford and Lincoln brand dealers who originate the leases. Ford Credit records an operating lease upon purchase of a vehicle subject to a lease from the dealer. The retail consumer makes lease payments representing the difference between Ford Credit’s purchase price of the vehicle and the contractual residual value of the vehicle, plus lease fees that we recognize on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease agreement. Depreciation and the gain or loss upon disposition of the vehicle is recorded in ~~Ford Credit interest, operating, and other expenses~~.

~~Financing Income.~~ Ford Credit originates and purchases finance installment contracts. Financing income represents interest earned on the finance receivables (including direct financing leases). 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.

The amounts included in Other income/(loss), net for the periods ended March 31 were as follows (in millions):

NOTE 5. INCOME TAXES

For interim tax reporting, we estimate one single effective tax rate for tax jurisdictions not subject to a valuation allowance, which is applied to the year-to-date ordinary income/(loss). Tax effects of significant unusual or infrequently occurring items are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate calculation and recognized in the interim period in which they occur.

For the first quarter of 2018, our effective tax rate was 9.1%. During the first quarter of 2018, we recognized $235 million of benefit for non-U.S. capital loss carryforwards expected to be realized in the foreseeable future.

Credit Quality

Consumer Portfolio. Credit quality ratings for consumer receivables are based on aging. ~~Refer to the aging table above.~~

Consumer receivables credit quality ratings are as follows:

Pass – current to 60 days past due;

Special Mention – 61 to 120 days past due and in intensified collection status; and

Substandard – greater than 120 days past due and for which the uncollectible portion of the receivables has already been charged off, as measured using the fair value of collateral less costs to sell.

Non-Consumer Portfolio. Dealers are assigned to one of four groups according to risk ratings as follows:

Group I – strong to superior financial metrics;

Group II – fair to favorable financial metrics;

Group III – marginal to weak financial metrics; and

Group IV – poor financial metrics, including dealers classified as uncollectible.

NOTE 11. NET INVESTMENT IN OPERATING LEASES

Net investment in operating leases consist primarily of lease contracts for vehicles with individuals, daily rental

companies, government entities, and fleet customers. Assets subject to operating leases are depreciated using the

straight-line method over the term of the lease to reduce the asset to its estimated residual value. Estimated residual

values are based on assumptions for used vehicle prices at lease termination and the number of vehicles that are

expected to be returned.

In the first quarter of 2018, we recognized both a remeasurement gain and a curtailment gain related to amendments to our U.S. defined benefit plans for senior management. Effective December 31, 2019, the plans will have a 35-year limit for service and pay for purposes of determining the pension benefits.

Pension Plan Contributions

During ~~2018,~~2019, we expect to contribute about $~~500~~650 million (most of which are mandatory contributions) from cash and cash equivalents to our ~~global~~worldwide funded pension plans and to make about $350 million of benefit payments to participants in unfunded plans, for a total of about $~~850 million~~1 billion. In the first quarter of ~~2018,~~2019, we contributed about $90300 million (including $140 million in discretionary contributions in the United States) to our ~~global~~worldwide funded pension plans and made about $90100 million of benefit payments to participants in unfunded plans.

NOTE 15. LEASE COMMITMENTS

We lease land, dealership facilities, offices, distribution centers, warehouses, and equipment under agreements with contractual periods ranging from less than one year to 40 years. Many of our leases contain one or more options to extend. In certain dealership lease agreements, we are the tenant and we sublease the site to a dealer. In the event the sublease is terminated, we have the option to terminate the head lease. We include options that we are reasonably certain to exercise in our evaluation of the lease term after considering all relevant economic and financial factors.

Leases that are economically similar to the purchase of an asset are classified as finance leases. The leased (“right-of-use”) assets in finance lease arrangements are reported in Net property on our consolidated balance sheet. Otherwise, the leases are classified as operating leases and reported in Other assets in the non-current assets section of our consolidated balance sheet.

For the majority of our leases commencing after January 1, 2019, we do not separate the non-lease components (e.g., maintenance and operating services) from the lease components to which they relate. Instead, non-lease components are included in the measurement of the lease liabilities. However, we do separate lease and non-lease components for contracts containing a significant service component (e.g., energy performance contracts). We calculate the initial lease liability as the present value of fixed payments not yet paid and variable payments that are based on a market rate or an index (e.g., CPI), measured at commencement. The majority of our leases are discounted using our incremental borrowing rate because the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. All other variable payments are expensed as incurred.

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.

NOTE 18.EMPLOYEE SEPARATION ACTIONS AND EXIT AND DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES

We record costs associated with voluntary separations at the time of employee acceptance, unless the acceptance requires explicit approval by the Company. We record costs associated with involuntary separation programs when management has approved the plan for separation, the affected employees are identified, and it is unlikely that actions required to complete the separation plan will change significantly. When a plan of separation requires approval by or consultation with the relevant labor organization or government, the costs are recorded after the required approval or consultation process is complete. Costs associated with benefits that are contingent on the employee continuing to provide service are accrued over the required service period.

Automotive Segment

As announced, we are executing a global redesign of our business. Redesign-related activities, including employee separation costs, payments to dealers and suppliers, and other charges, are recorded in Cost of sales and Selling, administrative and other expenses. Below are actions we have initiated as part of the redesign.

South America. On February 15, 2019, Ford Motor Company Brasil Ltda. (“Ford Brazil”), our subsidiary in Brazil, committed to a plan to exit the commercial heavy truck business in South America. As a result, Ford Brazil will cease production at the São Bernardo do Campo plant in Brazil during 2019.

Russia. On March 27, 2019, Ford Sollers Netherlands B.V. (“Ford Sollers”), a joint venture between Ford and Sollers PJSC (“Sollers”) in which Ford has control, announced its plan to restructure its business in Russia to focus exclusively on commercial vehicles and to exit the passenger car segment. As a result of these actions, Ford Sollers will cease production in 2019 at the Naberezhnye Chelny and St. Petersburg vehicle assembly plants and the Elabuga engine plant. As part of these restructuring actions, Ford plans to acquire a 100% ownership of Ford Sollers during the second quarter of 2019, and later in the year sell a 51% controlling interest in the restructured entity to Sollers.

Other Global Redesign Actions. In 2018, we announced our plan to end production at the Ford Aquitane Industries plant in Bordeaux, France, and in March 2019, we announced our plan to phase-out the production of the C-Max at the Saarlouis Body and Assembly Plant in Germany. Furthermore, we are reducing our global workforce and taking other restructuring actions.

NOTE ~~16.~~19. REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST

We formed the Ford Sollers joint venture with Sollers in October 2011 to operate in Russia. The value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest, reflecting redemption features embedded in the 50% equity interest in the joint venture that is held by Sollers, reported in the mezzanine section of our consolidated balance sheet at December 31,2018 and March 31, 2019 was $100 million and $135 million, respectively. The $35 million increase is reported in Income/(Loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests on our consolidated income statement. The redeemable noncontrolling interest became exercisable beginning on January 1, 2019, and Sollers exercised its option in March 2019. Subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, we will purchase the noncontrolling interest from Sollers in the second quarter of 2019 for $135 million. See Note 18 for information concerning our plan to restructure the business in Russia.

FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE ~~17.~~21. 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, 2017		March 31, 2018		December 31, 2018		March 31, 2019
Maximum potential payments	$	1,397	$	1,558	$	1,163	$	1,115
Carrying value of recorded liabilities related to guarantees and limited indemnities	408		447		351		350

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 ~~$1.4 billion~~$974 million as of March 31, ~~2018~~2019, 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 ~~$435~~$327 million as our best estimate of the amount we will have to pay under the guarantee.

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 ~~17.~~21. 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 $~~700~~600 million. In addition, we have a reasonably possible risk of loss for an emission matter. Because the matter is preliminary, we cannot estimate the risk of loss or predict the outcome, and cannot provide reasonable assurance that it will not have a material adverse effect on us.

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 ~~an amount~~obligations for ~~estimated cost associated with~~ warranty costs and field service actions (i.e., safety recalls, emission recalls, and ~~customer satisfaction actions)~~other product campaigns) 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 ~~collection~~amount 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 estimated supplier recoveries, for the periods ended March 31 was as follows (in millions):


	First Quarter						First Quarter

NOTE ~~18.~~22. SEGMENT INFORMATION

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 other activities.

Automotive Segment

Our Automotive segment primarily includes the sale of Ford and Lincoln vehicles, service parts, and accessories worldwide, together with the associated costs to develop, manufacture, distribute, and service the vehicles, parts, and accessories.

Autonomous vehicles includes self-driving systems development and vehicle integration, autonomous vehicle research and advanced engineering, autonomous vehicle transportation-as-a-service network development, user experience, and business strategy and business development teams. FSM designs and builds mobility products and subscription services on its own, and collaborates with ~~start-ups~~service providers and ~~tech~~technology companies. In 2019, we began recording in the Mobility segment subscription related income previously reported in the Automotive segment. This income is generated from services managed in our Mobility segment.

Ford Credit Segment

The Ford Credit segment is comprised of the Ford Credit business on a consolidated basis, which is primarily vehicle-related financing and leasing activities.

Corporate Other

Corporate Other primarily includes corporate governance ~~costs,~~expenses, interest income (excluding interest earned on our extended service contract portfolio that is included in our Automotive segment) and portfolio gains and losses from our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, and foreign exchange derivatives gains and losses associated with intercompany lending. Corporate governance ~~costs~~expenses are primarily administrative, ~~expenses supporting oversight or stewardship~~delivering benefit on behalf of the global enterprise and are not allocated to specific Automotive business units or operating segments. ~~This includes~~These include expenses related to setting and directing global policy, ~~establishment of global systems~~providing oversight and ~~processes,~~stewardship, and ~~promotion of~~promoting the ~~Company as a whole.~~Company’s interests. The underlying assets and liabilities associated with these ~~financial results~~activities remain with the respective Automotive and Mobility segments.

Interest on Debt

Interest on Debt is presented as a separate reconciling item and consists of interest expense on Automotive and ~~other~~Other debt. The underlying liability is reported in the Automotive segment and in Corporate Other.

~~Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm~~

~~To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of~~

~~Ford Motor Company~~

~~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 March 31, 2018, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, and equity for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, including 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 for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have 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 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.

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.

Company Adjusted EBIT (Most Comparable GAAP Measure: Net Income Attributable to Ford) – Earnings 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 operating results aligned with industry reporting. Pre-tax special items consist of (i) pension and OPEB remeasurement gains and losses, ~~that are not reflective of our underlying business results,~~ (ii) significant ~~restructuring actions related to~~personnel and dealer-related costs stemming from 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 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: Company Net Income ~~Attributable to Ford divided by Company Revenue)~~Margin) – Company ~~Adjusted~~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.~~items, and restructuring impacts in non-controlling interests. 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 Adjusted 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. When we provide guidance for Company adjusted operating cash flow, we do not provide guidance for net cash provided by/(used in) operating activities because the GAAP measure will include items that are difficult to quantify or predict with reasonable certainty, including cash flows related to the Company's exposures to foreign currency exchange rates and certain commodity prices (separate from any related hedges), Ford Credit's operating cash flows, and cash flows related to special items, including separation payments, each of which individually or in the aggregate could have a significant impact to our net cash provided by/(used in) our operating activities.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Adjusted Cash Conversion (Most Comparable GAAP Measure: Net Cash Provided By / (Used In) Operating Activities divided by Net Income Attributable to Ford (“cash conversion”)) – Company Adjusted Cash Conversion is Company adjusted operating cash flow divided by Adjusted EBIT. This non-GAAP measure is useful to management and investors because it allows users to evaluate how much of Ford's Adjusted EBIT is converted into cash flow.

Adjusted Debt to EBITDA (Most Comparable GAAP Measure: Total Company Debt to Net income attributable to Ford) – This financial leverage ratio is commonly used to assess a company’s ability to repay its debt. This measure is useful to management and investors because it helps to assess how long we would need to operate at our current level to repay our debt (excl. Ford Credit’s debt). When we provide guidance for adjusted debt to EBITDA, we do not provide guidance for the most comparable GAAP measure 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. For more information, see the definitions of Adjusted Debt and Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted Debt (Most Comparable GAAP Measure: Total Company Debt) – Measure of total company debt (excl. Ford Credit), adjusted to include unamortized discount/premium and issuance costs (excl. Ford Credit), operating lease minimum commitments, and net pension liabilities excluding prepaid assets.

Adjusted EBITDA (Most Comparable GAAP Measure: Net income attributable to Ford) – Measure of Company Adjusted EBIT (see definition), excluding Ford Credit EBT and equity in net income/(loss) of affiliated companies, and further adjusted to include certain non-pension related special items, depreciation and tooling amortization (excl. Ford Credit), operating lease expense, and certain pension costs.

Adjusted ROIC – Adjusted Return on Invested Capital (“ROIC”) provides management and investors with useful information to evaluate the Company’s after-cash tax operating return on its invested capital for the period presented. Adjusted net operating profit after cash tax measures operating results less special items, interest on debt (excl. Ford Credit Debt), and certain pension/OPEB costs. Average invested capital is the sum of average balance sheet equity, debt (excl. Ford Credit Debt), and net pension/OPEB liability. When we provide guidance for adjusted ROIC, we do not provide guidance on an unadjusted ROIC basis because it will include potentially significant special items that have not yet occurred and are difficult to predict with reasonable certainty prior to year-end.

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.

Wholesale volumes, at 1.7 million units, were down 2% compared with first quarter 2017, 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.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

The chart below shows our first quarter ~~2018 net income attributable to Ford and Company adjusted EBIT by segment.~~

Our Automotive 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 fill2019 key metrics for the ~~newly launched EcoSport and a stock build for Focus. Importantly, total cost excluding commodities was about flat~~Company, compared to a year ago.

~~The increase~~

Net income attributable to Ford 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 ~~2018 due to fixed contracts~~2019 was $1.1 billion or ~~hedges in place.~~

~~In our Mobility segment, we incurred a loss~~$0.29 diluted earnings per share of ~~$102~~Common and Class B stock, down $600 million ~~driven by autonomous vehicle development costs. These results benefited~~or $0.14 per share from ~~a one-time gain on investments in Smart Mobility of about $58 million. The quarterly loss was $38 million worse 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. ~~The improvement~~Company adjusted EBIT for the first quarter of 2019 was ~~broad-based, including growth~~$2.4 billion or $0.44 diluted adjusted earnings per share, up $300 million or $0.01 per share year over year.

Company adjusted EBIT improved ~~loss-to-receivables ratio. Auction values improved~~year over year despite external headwinds of about $500 million versus a year ~~ago by about 1% at constant mix,~~ago. This includes lower industry volume; continued, though smaller, increases in commodity costs, including tariff-related effects; and adverse exchange. This $500 million impact is net of pricing actions that we ~~now expect full year average auction values~~took in South America 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.~~

Automotive Segment

The chart below shows our first quarter ~~2018~~2019 Automotive segment EBIT by region.

In the first quarter of 2019, our Automotive segment EBIT improved from a year ago. Although the combined loss in the business units outside North America was ~~the largest EBIT contributor earning $1.9 billion, down $195 million~~unchanged from a year ago, ~~with an EBIT margin~~it represents a strong $632 million improvement from the fourth quarter of ~~7.8%, down 1.1 percentage points.

~~Outside~~We saw progress in each of the three business units that drove the year-over-year decline in Company adjusted EBIT in 2018 – China, Europe, and North ~~America in the Automotive segment, results were~~America.

In China, we incurred a ~~combined~~ loss of ~~$203~~$128 million ~~with each region incurring~~on lower volume. This was an improvement from the $150 million we lost a ~~loss except Europe. The combined~~year ago, which was, by far, China’s best quarterly result in 2018. In the second through fourth quarters of 2018, our average quarterly loss was ~~$248 million worse~~$465 million. The improvement from a year ago was driven by our consolidated operations, offset partially by lower JV equity net income. The main elements of the consolidated operations’ improvement were strong cost performance and favorable exchange, although we also saw favorable mix and achieved flat year-over-year pricing in a negative industry-pricing environment. The favorable currency effect essentially was a reversal of an equivalent adverse impact we incurred in China over the past several years. The lower JV equity net income was entirely due to lower volume. Importantly, we ended the quarter with dealer stocks in good shape and improving dealer profitability.

In Europe, we were profitable, but at a lower level than a year ago, more than explained by ~~Asia Pacific.

In ~~Europe,~~North America, we ~~earned~~achieved our best EBIT since second quarter 2018 and an EBIT margin of ~~$119 million, $90 million~~8.7%, both improved from a year ago. We achieved this through strong mix and higher net pricing, aided by structural costs that were slightly 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)

From a product standpoint, North America’s EBIT improvement was driven by our F-Series despite new competitive challenges; Ranger, as it came to market; and Transit, America’s best-selling van. North America’s EBIT also benefited substantially from the decision to exit traditional passenger sedans. The strong financial performance of F-Series was matched by robust performance in the marketplace. In the first quarter of 2019 and in the face of new competitive entries, F-Series customer sales and average transaction prices held strong from a year ago, while share of segment increased. Our plan is to strengthen our position further with a new Super Duty launching later this year, a new F-150 coming in 2020, followed by a battery electric vehicle relatively soon thereafter.

In general, we measure year-over-year change in Automotive segment EBIT using the causal factors listed below, with net pricing and cost variances calculated at ~~present-year~~present-period volume and mix and exchange:

Market Factors(exclude the impact of unconsolidated affiliate wholesales):


◦	Volume and Mix – primarily measures EBIT 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~~EBIT 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 EBIT 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

Cost:


◦	Contribution Costs – primarily measures EBIT 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 EBIT 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:


▪	Manufacturing, Including ~~Volume Related~~Volume-Related – consists primarily of costs for hourly and salaried manufacturing personnel, plant overhead (such as utilities and taxes), and new product launch expense.

These costs could be affected by volume for operating pattern actions such as overtime, line-speed, and shift schedules


▪	Engineering – consists primarily of costs for engineering personnel, prototype materials, testing, and outside engineering services


▪	Spending-Related – consists primarily of depreciation and amortization of our manufacturing and engineering assets, but also includes asset retirements and operating leases


▪	Advertising and Sales Promotions – includes costs for advertising, marketing programs, brand promotions, customer mailings and promotional events, and auto shows


▪	Administrative and Selling – includes primarily costs for salaried personnel and purchased services related to our staff activities and selling functions, as well as associated information technology costs


▪	Pension and OPEB – consists primarily of past service pension costs and other postretirement employee benefit costs

Other – includes a variety of items, such as parts and services ~~profits,~~earnings, royalties, government incentives, and compensation-related changes. Other also includes:

◦

Exchange – primarily measures EBIT variance driven by one or more of the following: (i) transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies of the relevant entities, (ii) effects of converting functional currency income to U.S. dollars, (iii) effects of remeasuring monetary assets and liabilities of the relevant entities in currencies other than their functional currency, or (iv) results of our foreign currency hedging


◦	Beginning in 2018, in our discussion of Asia Pacific EBIT, Other includes the equity income from our China JVs. In prior periods, the impact of our equity income from our China JVs was spread across each causal factor

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

In addition, definitions and calculations used in this report include:

Wholesales and Revenue – wholesale unit volumes include all Ford and Lincoln badged units (whether produced by Ford or by an unconsolidated affiliate) that are sold to dealerships, units manufactured by Ford that are sold to other manufacturers, units distributed by Ford for other manufacturers, and local brand units produced by our China joint venture, Jiangling Motors Corporation, Ltd. (“JMC”), that are sold to dealerships. Vehicles sold to daily rental car companies that are subject to a guaranteed repurchase option (i.e., rental repurchase), as well as other sales of finished vehicles for which the recognition of revenue is deferred (e.g., consignments), also are included in wholesale unit volumes. Revenue from certain vehicles in wholesale unit volumes (specifically, Ford badged vehicles produced and distributed by our unconsolidated affiliates, as well as JMC brand vehicles) are not included in our revenue

~~Automotive Segment EBIT Margin~~ ~~– defined as Automotive segment EBIT divided by Automotive segment revenue~~

Industry Volume and Market Share – based, in part, on estimated vehicle registrations; includes medium and heavy duty trucks

Mobility Segment

Our Mobility segment primarily includes development costs related to our autonomous vehicles and our investment in mobility through Ford Smart Mobility LLC (“FSM”). Autonomous vehicles includes self-driving systems development and vehicle integration, autonomous vehicle research and advanced engineering, autonomous vehicle transportation-as-a-service network development, user experience, and business strategy and business development teams. FSM designs and builds mobility products and subscription services on its own, and collaborates with ~~start-ups~~service providers and ~~tech~~technology companies. In 2019, we began recording in the Mobility segment subscription related income previously reported in the Automotive segment. This income is generated from services managed in our Mobility segment.

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 EBT 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~~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:


◦	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.~~conditions

◦

As of January 1, 2019, we changed our accounting method for reporting early termination losses related to customer defaults on operating leases. Previously, we presented the early termination loss reserve on operating leases due to customer default events as part of the allowance for credit losses which reduces Net investment in operating leases on the balance sheet. We now consider the effects of operating lease early terminations when determining depreciation estimates, which are included as part of accumulated depreciation within Net investment in operating leases on the balance sheet. We believe this change in accounting method is preferable as the characterization of these changes are better reflected as depreciation. We have reclassified prior period amounts to reflect the above changes. For additional information, refer to the “Critical Accounting Estimates - Allowance for Credit Losses” section of Item 7 of Part II of our ~~2017~~2018 Form 10-K Report

Lease Residual:


◦	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~~Ford Credit’s estimate of the number of vehicles that will be returned to it and sold. With the change in accounting method discussed above, accumulated depreciation now reflects early termination losses on operating leases due to customer default events, for all periods presented. For additional information, refer to the “Critical Accounting Estimates - Accumulated Depreciation on Vehicles Subject to Operating Leases” section of Item 7 of Part II of our ~~2017~~2018 Form 10-K Report

Exchange:


◦	Reflects changes in EBT driven by the effects of converting functional currency income to U.S. dollars

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Other:


◦	Primarily includes operating expenses, other revenue, ~~and~~ insurance expenses, and other income 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~~income 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 monthly average equity for the period

Securitizations (as shown on the Public Term Funding Plan chart) – Public ~~securitizations,~~securitization transactions, Rule 144A offerings sponsored by Ford ~~Motor~~ Credit, and widely distributed offerings by Ford Credit Canada

Securitization Cash (as shown on the Liquidity Sources chart) – Cash held for the benefit of the securitization investors (for example, a reserve fund)

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

Total Net Receivables (as shown on the Total Net Receivables Reconciliation toTo Managed Receivables chart) – Includes finance receivables (retail and wholesale) sold for legal purposes and net investment in operating leases included in securitization transactions that do not satisfy the requirements for accounting sale treatment. These receivables and operating leases are reported on Ford Credit’s balance sheet and are available only for payment of the debt issued by, and other obligations of, the securitization entities that are parties to those securitization transactions; they are not available to pay the other obligations of Ford Credit or the claims of Ford Credit’s other creditors

Corporate Other

Corporate Other primarily includes corporate governance ~~costs,~~expenses, interest income (excluding interest earned on our extended service contract portfolio that is included in our Automotive segment) and portfolio gains and losses from our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, and foreign exchange derivatives gains and losses associated with intercompany lending.

Special Items

In Note 1822 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,~~ Mobility, ~~segment,~~ and Ford Credit ~~segment.~~segments. 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.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 2019, total balance sheet cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and restricted cash (including Ford Credit) was $37.9 billion.

We analyze our balance sheet on a “Company” basis which excludes Ford Credit. We consider our key balance sheet metrics to be: (i) Company cash, which includes cash equivalents, marketable securities, and restricted cash, excluding Ford Credit’s cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and restricted cash; and (ii) Company liquidity, which includes Company cash, less restricted cash, and total available committed credit lines.

Company excluding Ford Credit

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, 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 company cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and restricted cash, excluding Ford Credit’s cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities (collectively “Company cash”), Company liquidity, which includes Company cash and total available committed credit lines, and cash net of debt.

At March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, we had ~~$27.6 billion of~~ Company cash of $24.2 billion, with ~~84%~~87% held by consolidated entities domiciled in the United States. WeTo be prepared for an economic downturn, we target ~~to have~~ an ~~average~~ ongoing Company cash balance ~~of about~~at or above $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 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 Company cash investments primarily include U.S. Department of Treasury obligations, federal agency securities, bank time deposits with investment-grade institutions, investment-grade corporate securities, 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 adjusted based on market conditions and liquidity needs. We monitor our Company cash levels and average maturity on a daily basis.

In addition to our ~~target~~ Company cash ~~balance,~~target, we also target to maintain a $10 billion available balance under our 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 Company liquidity, which includes Company cash and the Automotive portion of the corporate credit facility, to be ~~about~~at or above $30 billion, which is an amount we believe is sufficient to support our business priorities and to protect our business. At March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, we had ~~$38.6~~$35.2 billion of Company liquidity. We may reduce our Company cash and liquidity targets over time, based on improved operating performance and changes in our risk profile.

Changes in Company 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 Company cash are summarized below:~~

In managing our business, we classify changes in Company cash into operating and ~~other~~non-operating items. Operating items include: Company adjusted EBIT excluding Ford Credit, capital spending, depreciation and tooling amortization, changes in working capital, Ford Credit distributions, and all other and timing differences. Non-operating items include: restructuring (including separation ~~payments,~~payments), other transactions with Ford Credit, acquisitions and divestitures, changes in Automotive and Other debt, contributions to funded pension plans, and shareholder distributions.

First quarter 2018 Company operating cash flow was $3 billion positive, driven by Company adjusted EBIT excluding Ford Credit EBT, the seasonal impact of higher production payables on working capital, and Ford Credit distributions. Company operating cash flow improved $1 billion compared with first quarter 2017, reflecting Ford Credit distributions.

~~Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)~~

Capital spending was $1.8 billion in the first quarter of 2018. Our outlook for full year capital spending is expected to peak at about $7.5 billion in 2018 and decline to about $7 billion annually starting 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 of about $100 million. We expect full year distributions of about $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 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.

In the first quarter of 2019, the majority of our operating cash flow was generated by the Automotive segment. For 2019, we continue to expect improved Company adjusted operating cash flow versus 2018.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Changes in Company cash excluding Ford Credit are summarized below:

Capital spending was $1.6 billion in the first quarter of 2019. We continue to expect full year 2019 capital spending to be about the same as 2018. As we redesign our business, the ongoing amount of capital spending to support product development, growth, and infrastructure is expected to be about $7 billion annually through 2022.

First quarter 2019 working capital was about $500 million positive, more than explained by an increase in production payables.

First quarter 2019 all other and timing differences were about $600 million negative, reflecting primarily assorted timing differences, interest payments on Automotive and Other debt, and cash taxes.

Shareholder distributions were about $600 million in the first quarter of 2019. We expect full year distributions of $2.6 billion.

Available Credit Lines. Total committed Company credit lines excluding Ford Credit at March 31, ~~2018~~2019 were ~~$12~~$11.9 billion, consisting of $10.4 billion of our corporate credit facility and ~~$1.6~~$1.5 billion of local credit facilities. At March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, the utilized portion of the corporate credit facility was ~~about $35~~$27 million, representing amounts utilized for letters of credit. At March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, the utilized portion of the local credit facilities was ~~about $1.1 billion.~~$858 million.

Our corporate credit facility was amended as of April 23, 2019 to extend the maturity dates 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~~2024 and 25% of the commitments maturing on April 30, ~~2020.~~2022. We have allocated $3 billion of commitments to Ford Credit on an irrevocable and exclusive basis to support its ~~growth and~~ liquidity. We would guarantee any borrowings by Ford Credit under the corporate credit facility.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

The corporate credit facility is unsecured and free of material adverse change conditions to borrowing, restrictive financial covenants (for example, interest or ~~fixed charge~~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~~Also on April 23, 2019, we closed on a $3.5 billion supplemental credit facility, further strengthening our liquidity and providing additional financial flexibility.

Debt. AtAs shown in Note 16 of the Notes to the Financial Statements, at March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, Company debt excluding Ford Credit was ~~$16.4~~$14.2 billion, ~~and~~including Automotive debt ~~was $15.8~~of $13.6 billion. Both balances were about ~~$100~~$60 million ~~lower~~higher than at December 31, ~~2017.~~2018.

Leverage. We manage ~~Automotive~~Company debt (excluding Ford Credit) 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~~total company debt ~~underfunded~~(excluding Ford Credit) adjusted to include unamortized discount/premium and issuance costs (excluding Ford Credit), operating lease minimum commitments, and net pension liabilities ~~operating leases, and other adjustments,~~excluding prepaid assets, divided by Company adjusted EBIT, excluding Ford Credit EBT, and further adjusted ~~for~~to include depreciation and tooling amortization (excluding Ford Credit), operating lease expense, and ~~other adjustments.~~ certain pension costs. At March 31, 2019, our ratio of Company debt to net income attributable to Ford was 50.9:1, and our ratio of adjusted debt to EBITDA was 3.2:1.

Ford Credit’s leverage is calculated as a separate business as described in the Liquidity - Ford Credit Segment section of Item 2. Ford Credit is self-funding and its debt, which is used to fund its operations, is separate from our Automotive and Other debt.

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 ~~$156~~$155 billion as of March 31, ~~2018,~~2019 were funded primarily with term debt and term asset-backed securities. Securitized funding as a percent of managed receivables was ~~36%~~38%. Ford Credit ~~expects the~~targets a mix of securitized funding ~~to remain around~~between 35% and 40%. The calendarization of the funding plan will result in quarterly fluctuations of the securitized funding percentage.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Public Term Funding Plan. The following chart shows Ford Credit’s issuances for full-year ~~2016~~2017 and ~~2017,~~2018, planned issuances for full-year ~~2018,~~2019, and its global public term funding issuances through April 24, ~~2018,~~2019, excluding short-term funding programs:

Ford Credit’s total unsecured public term funding plan is categorized by currency of issuance. Ford Credit plans to ~~issue~~continue issuing its ~~European~~eurocurrency-denominated (e.g., euro and sterling) public unsecured debt from the United States. For ~~2018,~~2019, Ford Credit now projects full-year public term funding in the range of ~~$24~~$27 billion to ~~$31~~$32 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 April 24, ~~2018,~~2019, Ford Credit has completed ~~$11~~$13 billion of public term issuances.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Liquidity. 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~~about $25 billion.

At March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, Ford Credit’s net liquidity available for use was ~~$1.3~~$31 billion, ~~lower~~$3.7 billion higher than at year-end ~~2017 and $1.1 billion lower than at March 31, 2017.~~2018.

Ford Credit’s sources of liquidity include cash, committed asset-backed facilities, unsecured credit facilities, and the corporate credit facility allocation. At March 31, 2019, Ford Credit’s liquidity sources including cash totaled $54.3 billion, up $2.7 billion from year-end 2018.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

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 March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, Ford Credit’s financial statement leverage was ~~9.1:~~9.6:1, and its managed leverage was ~~8.4:~~8.8:1. Ford Credit targets managed leverage in the range of 8:1 to 9:1.

Total Company

Pension Plans - Underfunded Balances. As of March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, our total Company pension underfunded status reported on our balance sheet was ~~$6.3~~$5.6 billion and reflects the net underfunded status at December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, 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 ~~2017,~~2018, and the reported number does not reflect the impact from any change in interest rates or asset returns since year-end ~~2017.~~2018.

Based on our planning assumptions for asset returns, discount rates, and contributions, we expect our funded status to improve at year-end ~~2018~~2019 compared to the end of ~~2017.~~2018.

Return on Invested Capital. We analyze total Company performance using an adjusted Return on Invested Capital (“ROIC”) financial metric based on an after-tax rolling four quarter average. The following table contains the calculation of our ROIC for the periods shown:

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

•S~~&P Global Ratings (“S&P”).~~&P.

In several markets, ~~locally-recognized~~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.

OUTLOOK

Based on ~~the~~our current ~~economic environment,~~assumptions, our Company guidance for ~~2018~~2019 includes the following:

~~Looking at~~For 2019, we now expect year-over-year improvement in the key metrics as shown above, including our revenue growth to be greater than 2%, adjusted EBIT margin to be greater than 4.4%, adjusted ROIC to be greater than 7.1%, and adjusted cash conversion to be greater than 40%. We now expect adjusted debt to EBITDA to be higher than 3.2:1 by the end of the year.

We expect first quarter 2019 Company adjusted EBIT to be the strongest of the year due to seasonal factors and major product launches ahead. For the full year, ~~our~~we now expect Company ~~guidance reflects the following:~~adjusted EBIT to be higher than in 2018.

~~Company revenue~~We continue to ~~be modestly higher than 2017;~~

expect full-year 2019 Company adjusted ~~EPS to be in a range of $1.45 to $1.70;~~

~~Company~~ operating cash flow to be ~~positive~~stronger and ~~about the same as 2017;~~

~~Pension contributions of about $500 million;~~

~~Capital spending of about $7.5 billion;~~Automotive EBIT to improve, driven by gains in China, Europe, and

~~An adjusted effective tax rate of about 15%~~

~~In addition:~~

North America. 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.~~

For the full year, EBIT will be lower~~ driven by ~~our first-half performance, with the run rate of the business strengthening through the fourth quarter.~~favorable mix, higher net pricing, and lower cost; and North America’s EBIT and EBIT margin to improve from 2018.

For the full year, we expect ~~EBIT~~a larger loss in ~~Europe~~Mobility as we increase our investment in mobility services and as our autonomous vehicle efforts move closer to ~~improve from 2017 levels due to~~commercialization with 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.bespoke product in late 2021.

~~For~~We now expect EBT for the full year ~~we expect~~at Ford Credit ~~EBT~~ to be ~~flat-to-lower than 2017~~about the same as ~~we continue to plan~~2018. This includes a continued expectation for ~~lower financing margins due to rising interest rates. While we expect~~ auction values to ~~trend better than~~decline on average over the year by about four percent, at constant mix.

We have identified a total of about $11 billion in potential EBIT charges for our ~~initial expectations,~~Global Redesign actions, with negative cash effects of about $7 billion. In 2019, we expect ~~them~~to incur $3 billion to $3.5 billion of the EBIT charges, with negative cash effects of about $2.5 billion.

~~REVIEW BY INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM~~

~~The interim financial information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the periods ended~~

March 31, 2018 and 2017 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. Readers should restrict reliance on PwC’s reports on such information accordingly. 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,~~2019, was a liability of $176 million, compared with an asset of ~~$104 million, compared with a liability of $22~~$363 million as of December 31, ~~2017.~~2018. The potential decrease in fair value from a 10% adverse change in the underlying exchange rates, in U.S. dollar terms, was ~~$2.8~~$2.4 billion at ~~both~~ March 31, ~~2018 and~~2019, compared with $2.5 billion at December 31, ~~2017.~~2018.

Commodity Price Risk. The net fair value of commodity forward contracts (including adjustments for credit risk) as of March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, was a liability of ~~$21~~$16 million, compared with ~~an asset~~a liability of ~~$33~~$62 million at December 31, ~~2017.~~2018. The potential decrease in fair value from a 10% adverse change in the underlying commodity prices, in U.S. dollar terms, was ~~$62~~$102 million at March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, compared with ~~$69~~$90 million at December 31, ~~2017.~~2018.

Ford 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 March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, all else constant, such an increase in interest rates would ~~decrease~~increase its pre-tax cash flow by ~~$17~~$7 million over the next 12 months, compared with an increase of ~~$14~~$51 million at December 31,~~2017~~ 2018. 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 March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, 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. ~~There were no changes in internal control over financial~~During the first quarter of 2019, we launched a new lease administration and accounting system to support our implementation of ASU 2016-02, Leases. We also began utilizing a new global profit 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.~~ system for segment reporting and impairment testing.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 2.1. ~~Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.~~Legal Proceedings.

~~On February 15,~~OTHER MATTERS

European Competition Law Matter (as previously reported on page 23 of our 2018 ~~we issued 8.6 million shares~~Form 10-K Report). As previously reported, on October 5, 2018, FCE Bank plc (“FCE”) received a notice from the Italian Competition Authority (the “ICA”) concerning an alleged violation of ~~Ford Common Stock valued at $96 million to certain stockholders of Autonomic, Inc. (“Autonomic”) as part~~Article 101 of the ~~merger consideration~~Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. The ICA alleges that FCE and other parties engaged in ~~conjunction with Ford’s acquisition of Autonomic. The issuance was made~~anti-competitive practices in ~~reliance on an exemption~~relation to the automotive finance market in Italy. On January 9, 2019, FCE received a decision from the ~~registration requirements~~ICA, which included an assessment of a fine against FCE in the amount of about $50 million. On March 8, 2019, FCE appealed the decision and the fine with the ultimate resolution 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.matter potentially taking several years.

InEmissions Certification (as previously reported on page 23 of our 2018 Form 10-K Report). As previously reported, the ~~first quarter~~Company has become aware of a potential concern involving its U.S. emissions certification process. This matter currently focuses on issues relating to road load estimations, including analytical modeling and coastdown testing. The potential concern does not involve the use of defeat devices (see page 10 of our 2018 ~~we repurchased shares~~Form 10-K Report for a definition of ~~Ford Common Stock from our employees or directors related~~defeat devices). We voluntarily disclosed this matter 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 2018~~U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the ~~shares issued as part~~California Air Resources Board on February 18, 2019 and February 21, 2019, respectively. Subsequently, the U.S. Department of Justice opened a criminal investigation into the ~~Autonomic transaction described above. The plan authorized repurchases~~matter. In addition, we have notified a number of ~~up to 28.5 million shares of Ford Common Stock.~~

other state and federal agencies. We are fully cooperating with all government agencies. Because this matter is still in the preliminary stages, we cannot predict the outcome, and we cannot provide assurance that it will not have a material adverse effect on us.

CONSUMER MATTERS

We provide warranties on the vehicles we sell. Warranties are offered for specific periods of time and/or mileage, and vary depending upon the type of product and the geographic location of its sale. Pursuant to these warranties, we will repair, replace, or adjust all parts on a vehicle that are defective in factory-supplied materials or workmanship during the specified warranty period. We are a defendant in numerous actions in state and federal courts alleging damages based on state and federal consumer protection laws and breach of warranty obligations. Remedies under these statutes may include repurchase, civil penalties, and plaintiff’s attorney fees. In some cases, plaintiffs also include an allegation of fraud.

The cost of these matters is included in our warranty costs. We accrue obligations for warranty costs 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. We reevaluate the adequacy of our accruals on a regular basis.

We are currently a defendant in a significant number of litigation matters relating to the performance of vehicles equipped with DPS6 transmissions.
