ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Trade Policy and Tariffs

As of June 30, 2026, we expect to receive about $3 billion related to tariff reimbursements from the federal government and suppliers and as offsets to Company payment obligations to suppliers. As previously disclosed, included in this amount is about $1.3 billion related to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) and tariff rulings from the United States Supreme Court and the Court of International Trade in the first quarter of 2026.

T1Although we have started to receive reimbursements from the federal government (excluding IEEPA), the timing for our receipt of these reimbursements is uncertain and is subject to changes in trade policy. Despite this uncertainty, we currently expect to receive about $500 million of reimbursements related to IEEPA in the second half of 2026.

For additional information regarding the impact and potential impact of trade policy and tariffs on our business, see Item 1A. Risk Factors and “Key Trends and Economic Factors Affecting Ford and the Automotive Industry” in Item 7 in our 2025 Form 10-K Report.

Production and Supply Chain

As previously disclosed, T2in September 2025 and November 2025, fires at a Novelis Inc. plant in New York disrupted operations at the facility. Novelis is a major aluminum supplier to Ford, and since the initial fire occurred, we have been working closely with Novelis to address the situation and have temporarily sourced an alternative supply of aluminum. We have also sought mitigating actions to minimize potential disruptions to our operations. We experienced lower production subsequent to the Novelis fires in September and November 2025, and although the ultimate impact on Ford depends on a number of factors, in the second half of 2026, we expect to partially recover the production lost to date.

For more information regarding the impact and potential impact of the Novelis fires on our business, see the Outlook section on page 55 of this 10-Q Report.

See Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2025 Form 10-K Report for additional discussion of the risks related to disruptions to Ford’s and Ford’s suppliers’ production and operations.

Electric Vehicle Market

T3In December 2025, we announced our decision to rationalize our EV manufacturing capacity and product roadmap, including cancelling three previously planned EVs and ending production of the current generation F-150 Lightning EV. Related to the foregoing, in the second quarter of 2026, we recorded $481 million of charges to be paid in cash, primarily related to contractual commitments related to those programs. As previously disclosed, we may incur additional expenses and cash expenditures related to these actions, which we now expect to be up to $2 billion (on a pre-tax basis). We will recognize those charges in the quarter they are incurred as a special item.

Also as previously disclosed, in May 2026, Ford, SK On Co., Ltd., and SK Battery America, Inc., and BlueOval SK, LLC (“BOSK”) closed on the transactions contemplated by the Joint Venture Disposition Agreement (“JVDA”) the parties entered into in December 2025. In conjunction with the closing, our membership interest in BOSK was redeemed, we acquired from BOSK all of BOSK’s interests in two battery plants located in Kentucky, and we entered into a Loan Arrangement and Reimbursement Agreement with U.S. Department of Energy (the “Ford DOE Loan Agreement”), pursuant to which we assumed from BOSK all of its obligations under its U.S. Department of Energy loan related to the single Kentucky plant for which advances were made.

Upon closing of the transactions, we recognized pre-tax special item charges of $3.6 billion, which includes about $500 million of cash expenditures. For additional information about BOSK, the JVDA, and the Ford DOE Loan Agreement, see Notes 12 and 16 of the Notes to the Financial Statements.

We expect that the regulatory and market dynamics we have observed in the EV market will continue to occur, which may have a substantial adverse impact on our results of operations and/or business, including our investments in supply, production capacity, and equity method investments.

For additional discussion of the impact of changes in the EV market to our business, and the risks related thereto, see the “Governmental Standards” discussion in “Item 1. Business” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2025 Form 10-K Report.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In the second quarter of 2026, the net loss attributable to Ford Motor Company was $1,327 million, and Company adjusted EBIT was $2,503 million.

Net income/(loss) includes certain items (“special items”) that are excluded from Company adjusted EBIT. These items are discussed in more detail under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures That Supplement GAAP Measures” on page 58 and in Note 18 of the Notes to the Financial Statements. We report special items separately to allow investors analyzing our results to identify certain infrequent significant items that they may wish to exclude when analyzing ongoing operating results. Our pre-tax and tax special items were as follows (in millions):

T4We recorded $4,179 million of pre-tax special item charges in the second quarter of 2026, primarily reflecting charges we recognized upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by the BOSK JVDA and charges related to the EV program cancellations previously announced in December 2025.

We recorded a $1,152 million benefit from tax special items in the second quarter of 2026, primarily reflecting the tax effect of pre-tax special item charges and a $273 million benefit from the recognition of a U.S. Qualified Opportunity Zone tax incentive.

In Note 18 of the Notes to the Financial Statements, special items are reflected as a separate reconciling item, as opposed to being allocated among our segments. This reflects the fact that management excludes these items from its review of operating segment results for purpose of measuring segment profitability and allocating resources.

The year-over-year decrease of $1,291 million in net income is primarily explained by higher special item charges, as described on page 36, offset partially by lower taxes. T5The year-over-year increase of $363 million in Company adjusted EBIT in the second quarter of 2026 primarily reflects higher Ford Blue and Model e EBIT and improved Ford Credit EBT, offset partially by lower Ford Pro EBIT.

In the second quarter of 2026, Ford Blue’s wholesales decreased 8% from a year ago, primarily reflecting the end of production of the Escape in North America and Focus in Europe and the impact of the Middle East conflict, offset partially by higher utility wholesales, including Expedition, Explorer, and Bronco. Second quarter 2026 revenue increased 1%, driven by favorable mix, exchange, and net pricing, offset partially by lower wholesales.

Ford Blue’s second quarter 2026 EBIT was $1,135 million, an increase of $474 million from a year ago, with an EBIT margin of 4.4%. The higher EBIT primarily reflects improved market factors, favorable exchange, lower regulatory compliance expense, and higher parts and accessories profit, offset partially by higher cost. The improved market factors reflect favorable product mix and higher net pricing, offset partially by lower volume. The higher cost primarily reflects higher commodity prices and temporary sourcing costs associated with the disruption in aluminum supply, offset partially by lower tariffs (excluding temporary Novelis-related).

Ford Model e’s second quarter 2026 EBIT loss was $919 million, a $410 million improvement from a year ago, with an EBIT margin of negative 89.6%. The improved EBIT primarily reflects lower losses on Gen-1 products, including lower volume and a favorable one-time adjustment related to a multi-year supply agreement, offset partially by higher warranty expenses.

In the second quarter of 2026, Ford Pro’s wholesales decreased 13% from a year ago, primarily reflecting the end of production of the Escape in North America for fleet customers (including daily rental), lower wholesales as a result of the aluminum supply disruption, and lower Ranger wholesales in Europe. Second quarter 2026 revenue decreased 5%, reflecting lower wholesales, offset partially by favorable mix and exchange.

Ford Pro’s second quarter 2026 EBIT was $1,718 million, a decrease of $600 million from a year ago as we continue to recover from the temporary disruption in aluminum supply, with an EBIT margin of 9.7%. The lower EBIT was primarily driven by the lower volume, higher commodity prices, and temporary sourcing costs associated with the disruption in aluminum supply. Favorable mix and net pricing, lower tariffs (excluding temporary Novelis-related), lower regulatory compliance expense, and higher parts and accessories profit were partial offsets.

Definitions and Information Regarding Ford Blue, Ford Model e, and Ford Pro Causal Factors

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

•Market Factors (exclude the impact of unconsolidated affiliate wholesale units):

◦Volume and Mix – primarily measures EBIT variance from changes in wholesale unit volumes (at prior-year average contribution margin per unit) driven by changes in industry volume, market share, and dealer stocks, as well as the 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 unit 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 (including tariff) 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 – 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 and Connectivity – consists primarily of costs for vehicle and software engineering personnel, prototype materials, testing, and outside engineering and software 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, Information Technology, and Selling – includes primarily costs for salaried personnel and purchased services related to our staff activities, information technology, and selling functions

•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

•Other – includes a variety of items, such as parts and services earnings, royalties, government incentives, compensation-related changes, and regulatory compliance expenses

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 or others, 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 or others. 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. Excludes transactions between Ford Blue, Ford Model e, and Ford Pro segments

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

•SAAR – seasonally adjusted annual rate

Ford Credit’s total net receivables of $143.2 billion were 0.3% lower than a year ago, explained primarily by lower non-consumer financing, exchange, and lower consumer financing, offset partially by a larger operating lease portfolio. The second quarter 2026 U.S. loss-to-receivables ratio of 52 basis points increased from a year ago, primarily reflecting higher repossessions and higher severities. U.S. auction values remain stable year over year.

Ford Credit’s second quarter 2026 EBT of $757 million was $112 million higher than a year ago, explained primarily by improved financing margin, net favorable items included in Other, and higher volume and mix. Included in Other is the non-recurrence of a charge related to U.K. commissions redress, offset partially by a decrease in favorable derivative market valuation adjustments.

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

Definitions and Information Regarding Ford Credit Causal Factors

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 net receivables excluding the allowance for credit losses 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 vehicles sold and leased, the extent to which Ford Credit purchases retail financing and operating 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

◦Mix primarily measures changes in net financing margin driven by period-over-period changes in the composition of Ford Credit’s average net receivables excluding the allowance for credit losses by product within each region

•Financing Margin:

◦Financing margin variance is the period-over-period change in financing margin yield multiplied by the present period average net receivables excluding the allowance for credit losses 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 net receivables excluding the allowance for credit losses 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 forward looking macroeconomic conditions. For additional information, refer to the “Critical Accounting Estimates - Allowance for Credit Losses” section of Item 7 of Part II of our 2025 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 Ford Credit’s estimate of the number of vehicles that will be returned to it and sold. Depreciation on vehicles subject to operating leases includes early termination losses on operating leases due to customer default events. 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 2025 Form 10-K Report

•Exchange:

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

•Other:

◦Primarily includes operating expenses, other revenue, insurance expenses, and other income/(loss) 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 income/(loss) 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 in the Funding Structure and Liquidity tables) – Cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and restricted cash, excluding amounts related to insurance activities

•Debt (as shown in the Key Metrics and Leverage tables) – Debt on Ford Credit’s balance sheets. 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

•Earnings Before Taxes (“EBT”) – Reflects Ford Credit’s income before income taxes

•Loss-to-Receivables (“LTR”) Ratio – LTR ratio is calculated using net charge-offs divided by average finance receivables, excluding unearned interest supplements and the allowance for credit losses

•Return on Equity (“ROE”) (as shown in the Key Metrics table) – Reflects return on equity calculated by annualizing net income for the period and dividing by monthly average equity for the period

•Securitization and Restricted Cash (as shown in the Liquidity table) – Securitization cash is held for the benefit of the securitization investors (for example, a reserve fund). Restricted cash primarily includes cash held to meet certain local governmental and regulatory reserve requirements and cash held under the terms of certain contractual agreements

•Securitizations (as shown in the Public Term Funding Plan table) – Public securitization transactions, Rule 144A offerings sponsored by Ford Credit, and widely distributed offerings by Ford Credit Canada

•Term Asset-Backed Securities (as shown in the Funding Structure table) – Obligations issued in securitization transactions that are payable only out of collections on the underlying securitized assets and related enhancements

•Total Net Receivables (as shown in the Key Metrics table) – Includes finance receivables (retail financing 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 sheets 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

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

Corporate Other

Corporate Other primarily includes corporate governance expenses, past service pension and OPEB income and expense, interest income (excluding Ford Credit interest income and interest earned on our extended service contract portfolio) and realized and unrealized gains and losses on our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, and foreign exchange derivatives gains and losses associated with intercompany lending. Corporate governance expenses are primarily administrative, delivering benefit on behalf of the global enterprise, that are not allocated to operating segments. These include expenses related to setting and directing global policy, providing oversight and stewardship, and promoting the Company’s interests. In the second quarter of 2026, Corporate Other had a $188 million EBIT loss, compared to a $155 million EBIT loss a year ago.

Interest on Debt

Interest on Debt, which consists of interest expense on Company debt excluding Ford Credit, was $357 million in the second quarter of 2026, $60 million higher than a year ago, which includes the impact of our assumption of the DOE loan from BOSK.

Taxes

Our Provision for/(Benefit from) income taxes for the second quarter and first half of 2026 was a benefit of $711 million and $350 million, respectively, resulting in an effective tax rate of 35.0% for the second quarter and negative 39.8% for the first half. These rates were driven by a benefit of $273 million in the second quarter resulting from the recognition of a U.S. Qualified Opportunity Zone tax incentive, which was treated as a special item. The first half rate was also driven by a benefit resulting from a tax law change in the United Kingdom.

Our second quarter and first half 2026 adjusted effective tax rates, which exclude special items, were 20.5% and 16.6%, respectively.

During the third quarter of 2026, we anticipate recognizing a tax benefit of up to $200 million, resulting from legal entity restructuring of our South American operations. The benefit is expected to be treated as a special item.

We regularly review our organizational structure and income tax elections for affiliates in non-U.S. and U.S. tax jurisdictions, which may result in changes in affiliates that are included in or excluded from our U.S. tax return. Any future changes to our structure, as well as any changes in income tax laws in the countries that we operate, could cause increases or decreases to our deferred tax balances and related valuation allowances.

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

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At June 30, 2026, total cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and restricted cash, including Ford Credit and entities held for sale, was $31.6 billion.

We consider our key balance sheet metrics to be: (i) Company cash, which includes cash equivalents, marketable securities, and restricted cash (including cash held for sale), 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, excluding Ford Credit’s total available committed credit lines.

For plans without interim remeasurement, the discount rate and rate of expected return assumptions are unchanged from year-end 2025.

Liquidity. Our key priority is to maintain a strong balance sheet to withstand potential stress scenarios, while having resources available to invest in and grow our business. T6At June 30, 2026, we had Company cash of $22.3 billion and liquidity of $43.4 billion. At June 30, 2026, about 86% of Company cash was held by consolidated entities domiciled in the United States.

To be prepared for an economic downturn and other stress scenarios, we target an ongoing Company cash balance at or above $20 billion plus significant additional liquidity above our Company cash target. 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 or operating environment.

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 commercial paper, 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.

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

Material Cash Requirements. Our material cash requirements may include:

•Capital expenditures (for additional information, see the “Changes in Company Cash” section below) and other payments for engineering, software, product development, and implementation of our plans for electrified products

•Purchase of raw materials and components to support the manufacturing and sale of vehicles (including electrified vehicles), parts, accessories, and payment of tariffs (for additional information, see the description of our “purchase obligations” in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources - Company Excluding Ford Credit” section in Item 7 of our 2025 Form 10-K Report)

•Marketing incentive payments to dealers

•Payments for warranty and field service actions (for additional information, see Note 17 of the Notes to the Financial Statements herein)

•Debt repayments including finance lease payments (for additional information, see Note 18 of the Notes to the Financial Statements in our 2025 Form 10-K Report)

•Discretionary and mandatory payments to our global pension plans (for additional information, see the “Liquidity and Capital Resources - Total Company” section in Item 7 of our 2025 Form 10-K Report, the “Changes in Company Cash” section below, and Note 11 of the Notes to the Financial Statements herein)

•Employee wages, benefits, and incentives

•Operating lease payments (for additional information, see Note 17 of the Notes to the Financial Statements in our 2025 Form 10-K Report)

•Cash effects related to the restructuring of our business

•Strategic acquisitions and investments to grow our business, including electrification

Subject to approval by our Board of Directors, shareholder distributions in the form of dividend payments and/or a share repurchase program (including share repurchases to offset the anti-dilutive effect of increased share-based compensation) may require the expenditure of a material amount of cash. We generally target shareholder distributions of 40% to 50% of adjusted free cash flow. Moreover, we may be subject to additional material cash requirements that are contingent upon the occurrence of certain events, e.g., legal contingencies, uncertain tax positions, and other matters.

We plan to utilize our liquidity (as described above) and our cash flows from business operations to fund our material cash requirements.

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

Changes in Company Cash. In managing our business, we classify changes in Company cash into operating and non-operating items. Operating items include: Company adjusted EBIT excluding Ford Credit EBT; capital spending; depreciation and tooling amortization; changes in working capital; Ford Credit distributions; interest on debt; cash taxes; and all other and timing differences (including timing differences between accrual-based EBIT and associated cash flows). Non-operating items include: restructuring costs; changes in Company debt excluding Ford Credit and finance lease payments; finance lease payments; contributions to funded pension plans; shareholder distributions; and other items (including gains and losses on investments in equity securities, acquisitions and divestitures, equity investments, and other transactions with Ford Credit).

With respect to “Changes in working capital,” in general, the Company excluding Ford Credit carries relatively low trade receivables compared with our trade payables because the majority of our wholesales are financed (primarily by Ford Credit) immediately upon the sale of vehicles to dealers, which generally occurs shortly after being produced. In contrast, our trade payables are based primarily on industry-standard production supplier payment terms of about 45 days. As a result, our cash flow deteriorates if wholesale volumes (and the corresponding revenue) decrease while trade payables continue to become due. Conversely, our cash flow improves if wholesale volumes (and the corresponding revenue) increase while new trade payables are generally not due for about 45 days.

For example, the suspension of production at most of our assembly plants and lower industry volumes due to COVID-19 in early 2020 resulted in an initial deterioration of our cash flow, while the subsequent resumption of manufacturing operations and return to pre-COVID-19 production levels at most of our assembly plants resulted in a subsequent improvement of our cash flow. Disruptions to our production due to supplier shortages or otherwise may have similar cash flow timing impacts. Even in normal economic conditions, however, 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 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 response to, or in anticipation of, supplier disruptions, we may stockpile certain components or raw materials to help prevent disruption in our production operations. Such actions could have a short-term adverse impact on our cash and increase our inventory. Moreover, in order to secure critical materials to manufacture electrified products, we have entered into and we may, in the future, enter into offtake agreements with raw material suppliers and make investments in certain raw material and battery suppliers. Such investments could have an additional adverse impact on our cash in the near-term.

The terms of the offtake agreements we have entered into, and those we may enter into in the future, vary by transaction, though they generally obligate us to purchase a certain percentage or minimum amount of output produced by the counterparty over an agreed upon period of time. The purchase price mechanisms included in our offtake agreements are typically based on the market price of the material at the time of delivery. The terms may also include conditions to our obligation to purchase the materials, such as quality or minimum output. Subject to satisfaction of those conditions, we will be obligated to purchase the materials or otherwise compensate the supplier in an amount determined by the contract.

As of June 30, 2026, our estimated expenditures for the maximum quantity that we are committed to purchase under these offtake agreements through 2035, subject to certain conditions, total approximately $6.4 billion based on our present forecast; however, our forecast could fluctuate from period to period based on market prices, which may result in significant increases or decreases in our estimate. The actual price paid for these materials will be recorded on our balance sheet at the time of purchase. In the event that we do not expect to consume all of the materials we are obligated to purchase pursuant to the terms of these agreements, we may sell the excess materials back to the supplier or another party.

The resale price may or may not be the same as the original purchase price, depending on then-current market conditions and negotiated terms. As a result, we have recorded, and may in the future record, accruals related to either the resale when the purchase price mechanism under our agreements is higher than the expected resale price of the excess materials or when we are required to otherwise compensate the supplier. Accruals recorded to date for such items have been immaterial.

As market conditions dictate, we have entered, and may in the future enter, into additional offtake agreements with raw material suppliers or renegotiate existing agreements. For additional discussion of the risks related to our offtake agreements and other long-term purchase contracts, see Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2025 Form 10-K Report.

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

Financial institutions participate in a supply chain finance (“SCF”) program that enables our suppliers, at their sole discretion, to sell their Ford receivables (i.e., our payment obligations to the suppliers) to the financial institutions on a non-recourse basis in order to be paid earlier than our payment terms provide. Our suppliers’ voluntary inclusion of invoices in the SCF program has no bearing on our payment terms, the amounts we pay, or our liquidity. We have no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to participate in the SCF program, and we do not provide any guarantees in connection with it. As of June 30, 2026, the outstanding amount of Ford receivables that suppliers elected to sell to the SCF financial institutions was $68 million. The amount settled through the SCF program during the first half of 2026 was $491 million.

Note: Numbers may not sum due to rounding.

Our second quarter 2026 Net cash provided by/(used in) operating activities was $4.3 billion, $2.0 billion lower than a year ago (see page 61 for additional information). The decrease primarily reflects lower net income and lower Ford Credit operating cash flows, offset partially by higher working capital. Company adjusted free cash flow was $2.1 billion, $0.7 billion lower than a year ago, primarily driven by unfavorable timing differences and higher net spending and tax and interest payments. Higher Ford Credit distributions, working capital, and Company adjusted EBIT excluding Ford Credit were partial offsets.

Capital spending was $2.4 billion in the second quarter of 2026, an increase of $0.3 billion from a year ago. T7We continue to expect full year 2026 capital spending to be in the range of $9.5 billion to $10.5 billion.

Second quarter 2026 working capital impact was $0.6 billion, driven by higher trade payables, offset partially by higher inventory and higher receivables, each compared to March 31, 2026. All other and timing differences were $0.6 billion. Timing differences include differences between accrual-based EBIT and the associated cash flows (e.g., marketing incentive and warranty payments to dealers, JV equity income, compensation payments, and pension and OPEB income or expense). Cash outflows related to our warranty accruals are expected to occur over several years.

In the second quarter of 2026, we contributed $148 million to our global funded pension plans. We continue to expect to contribute about $550 million to our global funded pension plans in 2026.

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

Shareholder distributions were $0.6 billion in the second quarter of 2026, all of which was attributable to our regular dividend.

Available Credit Lines. Total Company committed credit lines, excluding Ford Credit, at June 30, 2026 were $23.7 billion, consisting of $13.5 billion of our corporate credit facility, $2.0 billion of our supplemental revolving credit facility, $2.5 billion of our 364-day revolving credit facility, $3.0 billion of our delayed draw term loan facility, and $2.7 billion of local credit facilities. At June 30, 2026, $2.3 billion of committed Company credit lines, excluding Ford Credit, was utilized under local credit facilities for our affiliates, and the full amount under each of our corporate, supplemental, 364-day, and delayed draw term loan credit facilities was available.

Our corporate, supplemental, and 364-day revolving credit facilities were amended as of April 15, 2026 to extend the maturity dates of the commitments under each facility. Lenders under our corporate credit facility have $3.4 billion of commitments maturing on April 13, 2029 and $10.1 billion of commitments maturing on April 15, 2031. Lenders under our supplemental revolving credit facility have $2.0 billion of commitments maturing on April 13, 2029. Lenders under our 364-day revolving credit facility have $2.5 billion of commitments maturing on April 14, 2027.

Our delayed draw term loan facility was also amended as of April 15, 2026 to extend the available draw period for the $3.0 billion of commitments to December 31, 2026. Any unused commitments shall automatically terminate after December 31, 2026, and any loans drawn under the facility will mature on December 31, 2028.

The sustainability-linked targets previously included in the corporate, supplemental, and 364-day credit agreements were removed as part of the April 2026 amendments and the applicable margin and facility fees under those facilities will no longer be adjusted based on whether Ford achieves, or fails to achieve, certain sustainability-linked targets.

The corporate credit facility is unsecured and free of material adverse change conditions to borrowing, restrictive financial covenants (for example, interest or fixed-charge coverage ratio, debt-to-equity ratio, and minimum net worth requirements), and credit rating triggers that could limit our ability to obtain funding or trigger early repayment. 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 corporate credit facility, supplemental revolving credit facility, and 364-day revolving credit facility. If our senior, unsecured, long-term debt does not maintain at least two investment grade ratings from Fitch, Moody’s, and S&P, the guarantees of certain subsidiaries will be required.

The terms and conditions of the supplemental revolving credit facility, the 364-day revolving credit facility, and the delayed draw term loan facility are consistent with our corporate credit facility. Ford Credit has been designated as a subsidiary borrower under the corporate credit facility and the 364-day revolving credit facility.

Debt. As shown in Note 12 of the Notes to the Financial Statements, at June 30, 2026, Company debt excluding Ford Credit was $23.6 billion (including $1.0 billion of finance leases). This balance is $1.7 billion higher than at December 31, 2025, primarily reflecting our assumption of the DOE loan from BOSK in May 2026, offset partially by the repayment of the principal amount of our 0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due March 15, 2026 in the first quarter.

Leverage. We manage Company debt (excluding Ford Credit) levels with a leverage framework that targets investment grade credit ratings through a normal business cycle. The leverage framework includes a ratio of total Company debt (excluding Ford Credit), underfunded pension liabilities, operating leases, and other adjustments, divided by Company adjusted EBIT (excluding Ford Credit EBT), and further adjusted to exclude depreciation and tooling amortization (excluding Ford Credit).

Ford Credit’s leverage is calculated separately as described in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources - 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 Company debt excluding Ford Credit.

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

Ford Credit Segment

Ford Credit remains well capitalized with a strong balance sheet and funding diversified across platforms and markets. Ford Credit ended the second quarter of 2026 with $27.4 billion of liquidity, up $2.8 billion from year-end. Ford Credit continues to have robust access to capital markets, completing $19 billion of public term issuances through July 27, 2026.

Key elements of Ford Credit’s funding strategy include:

•Maintain strong liquidity and funding diversity

•Prudently access public markets

•Continue to leverage retail deposits in Europe

•Flexibility to increase asset-backed securities mix as needed; preserving assets and committed capacity

•Target financial statement leverage of 9:1 to 10:1

•Maintain self-liquidating balance sheet

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 regularly stress tests its balance sheet and liquidity to ensure that it can continue to meet its financial obligations through economic cycles.

Ford Credit’s net liquidity available for use will fluctuate quarterly based on factors including near-term debt maturities, receivable growth and decline, and timing of funding transactions. At June 30, 2026, Ford Credit’s net liquidity available for use was $27.4 billion, $2.8 billion higher than year-end 2025, reflecting strong access to public funding markets. At June 30, 2026, Ford Credit’s liquidity sources, including cash, committed asset-backed facilities, and committed unsecured credit facilities, totaled $52.7 billion, down $1.7 billion from year-end 2025, primarily explained by lower cash and committed asset-backed facilities.

Material Cash Requirements. Ford Credit’s material cash requirements include: (1) the purchase of retail financing and operating lease contracts from dealers and providing wholesale financing for dealers to finance new and used vehicles; and (2) debt repayments (for additional information on debt, see the “Balance Sheet Liquidity Profile” section in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources - Ford Credit Segment” section in Item 7 of Part II and Note 18 of the Notes to the Financial Statements in our 2025 Form 10-K Report). In addition, subject to approval by Ford Credit’s Board of Directors, shareholder distributions may require the expenditure of a material amount of cash. Moreover, Ford Credit may be subject to additional material cash requirements that are contingent upon the occurrence of certain events, e.g., legal contingencies, uncertain tax positions, and other matters.

Ford Credit plans to utilize its liquidity (as described above) and its cash flows from business operations to fund its material cash requirements.

Funding and Liquidity Risks. Ford Credit’s funding plan is subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond its control, including disruption in the capital markets, that could impact both unsecured debt and asset-backed securities issuance and the effects of regulatory changes on the financial markets. Refer to the “Liquidity and Capital Resources - Ford Credit Segment - Funding and Liquidity Risks” section of Item 7 of Part II of our 2025 Form 10-K Report for more information.

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, Fitch, Moody’s, and S&P.

In several markets, locally recognized rating agencies also rate us. A credit rating reflects an assessment by the rating agency of the credit risk associated with a corporate entity or particular securities issued by that entity. Rating agencies’ ratings of us are based on information provided by us and other sources. Credit ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell, or hold securities and are subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency. Each rating agency may have different criteria for evaluating company risk and, therefore, ratings should be evaluated independently for each rating agency.

There have been no rating actions taken by these NRSROs since the filing of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.

OUTLOOK

T8We provided 2026 Company guidance in our earnings release furnished on Form 8-K dated July 28, 2026. The guidance is based on our expectations and best estimates as of July 28, 2026, and assumes no material change to our current assumptions for inflation, logistics issues, production, or macroeconomic conditions. Our guidance does not include potential impacts of a significant escalation in the Middle East or a material downturn in the U.S. economy, which could have a substantial impact on industry demand. Moreover, our guidance has not factored in any new policy changes by the administration in the United States, including future or revised tariffs or related offsets, that have not been announced or tariffs or other policy changes that may be announced by other governments after the date hereof.

Our actual results could differ materially from our guidance due to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, including those set forth in “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our 2025 Form 10-K Report and as updated by our subsequent filings with the SEC.

Total Company

Adjusted EBIT (a)

Adjusted Free Cash Flow (a)

__________

(a)When we provide guidance for Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted Free Cash Flow, we do not provide guidance for the most comparable GAAP measures because, as described in more detail below in “Non-GAAP Measures That Supplement GAAP Measures,” they include items that are difficult to predict with reasonable certainty.

For full-year 2026, we now expect adjusted EBIT of $10.0 billion to $11.0 billion and adjusted free cash flow of $6.0 billion to $7.0 billion.

On a segment basis we expect:

•Ford Pro EBIT of $7.0 billion to $7.5 billion

•Ford Blue EBIT of $5.0 billion to $5.5 billion

•Ford Model e EBIT loss of about $4.0 billion

•Ford Credit EBT of above $2.5 billion

Our outlook for 2026 assumes:

•U.S. SAAR of 16.0 million to 16.5 million

•U.S. industry pricing up about 0.5%

•A net $1.0 billion improvement from the Novelis recovery, which includes about $1.5 billion of temporary costs (including tariffs)

•Commodity headwinds of just above $2.0 billion, largely due to higher aluminum pricing driven by global supply constraints. This excludes Novelis-related aluminum costs.

•A $1.0 billion improvement in material costs and warranty reductions (primarily coverages)

•An incremental investment of about $1.0 billion in Model e to support the ramp of our Universal EV platform and Ford Energy

•IEEPA cash recovery of about $0.5 billion in 2026

Cautionary Note on Forward-Looking Statements

Statements included or incorporated by reference herein may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on expectations, forecasts, and assumptions by our management and involve a number of risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those stated, including, without limitation:

•Ford’s long-term success depends on delivering the Ford+ plan, including improving cost competitiveness;

•Ford’s products have been and could continue to be affected by defects that result in recall campaigns, increased warranty costs, or delays in new model launches, and the time it takes to improve the quality of our products and services and reduce the costs associated therewith could continue to have an adverse effect on our business;

•Ford is highly dependent on its suppliers to deliver components in accordance with Ford’s production schedule and specifications, and a shortage of or inability to timely acquire key components or raw materials has previously disrupted and may, in the future, disrupt Ford’s operations;

•Ford’s production, as well as Ford’s suppliers’ production, and/or the ability to deliver products to consumers could be disrupted by labor issues, public health issues, natural or man-made disasters, adverse effects of climate change, financial distress, production difficulties, capacity limitations, or other factors;

•Ford may not realize the anticipated benefits of existing or pending strategic alliances, joint ventures, acquisitions, divestitures, commercial relationships, or business strategies or the benefits may take longer than expected to materialize;

•Ford may not realize the anticipated benefits of restructuring actions and such actions may cause Ford to incur significant charges, disrupt our operations, or harm our reputation;

•Failure to develop and deploy secure digital services that appeal to customers, retain existing subscribers, and grow our subscription rates could have a negative impact on Ford’s business;

•Ford’s ability to maintain a competitive cost structure could be affected by labor or other constraints;

•Ford’s ability to attract, develop, grow, support, and reward talent is critical to its success and competitiveness;

•Operational information systems, security systems, products, and services could be affected by cybersecurity incidents, ransomware attacks, and other disruptions and impact Ford, Ford Credit, their suppliers, and dealers;

•To facilitate access to the raw materials and other components necessary for the manufacture of electrified products, Ford has entered into and may, in the future, enter into multi-year commitments to raw material and other suppliers that subject Ford to risks associated with lower future demand for such items as well as costs that fluctuate and are difficult to accurately forecast;

•With a global footprint and supply chain, Ford’s results and operations have been and could continue to be adversely affected by economic or geopolitical developments, including protectionist trade policies such as tariffs, or other events;

•Ford’s new and existing products and digital, software, and physical services are subject to market acceptance and face significant competition from existing and new entrants in the automotive and digital and software services industries, and Ford’s reputation may be harmed based on positions it takes or if it is unable to achieve the initiatives it has announced;

•Ford may face increased price competition for its products and services, including pricing pressure resulting from industry excess capacity, currency fluctuations, competitive actions, legal and policy changes, or economic or other factors, particularly for electrified vehicles;

•Inflationary pressure and fluctuations in commodity and energy prices, foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, and market value of Ford or Ford Credit’s investments, including marketable securities, can have a significant effect on results;

•Ford’s results are dependent on sales of larger, more profitable vehicles, particularly in the United States;

•Industry sales volume can be volatile and could decline if there is a financial crisis, recession, public health emergency, or significant geopolitical event;

•The impact of government incentives on Ford’s business has been and could continue to be significant, and Ford’s receipt of government incentives could be subject to reduction, termination, or clawback;

•Ford and Ford Credit’s access to debt, securitization, or derivative markets around the world at competitive rates or in sufficient amounts could be affected by credit rating downgrades, market volatility, market disruption, regulatory requirements, asset portfolios, or other factors;

•Ford Credit could experience higher-than-expected credit losses, lower-than-anticipated residual values, or higher-than-expected return volumes for leased vehicles;

•Economic and demographic experience for pension and OPEB plans (e.g., discount rates or investment returns) could be worse than Ford has assumed;

•Pension and other postretirement liabilities could adversely affect Ford’s liquidity and financial condition;

•Ford and Ford Credit have experienced and could continue to experience unusual or significant litigation, governmental investigations, or adverse publicity arising out of alleged defects in products, services, perceived environmental impacts, or otherwise;

•Ford may need to substantially modify its product plans and facilities to respond to shifting consumer sentiment and competitive dynamics as a result of policy changes affecting, or otherwise to comply with safety, emissions, fuel economy, autonomous driving technology, environmental, and other regulations;

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

•Ford and Ford Credit could be affected by the continued development of more stringent privacy, data use, data protection, data access, and artificial intelligence laws and regulations as well as consumers’ heightened expectations to safeguard their personal information; and

•Ford Credit could be subject to new or increased credit regulations, consumer protection regulations, or other regulations.

We cannot be certain that any expectation, forecast, or assumption made in preparing forward-looking statements will prove accurate, or that any projection will be realized. It is to be expected that there may be differences between projected and actual results. Our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of their initial issuance, and we do not undertake, and expressly disclaim to the extent permitted by law, any obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. For additional discussion, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2025 Form 10-K Report, as updated by our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10‑Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.

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 operating results and trends, and a means to compare 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/(Loss) Attributable to Ford) – Earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”) excludes interest on debt (excluding Ford Credit Debt), taxes, and pre-tax special items. This non-GAAP measure is useful to management and investors because it focuses on underlying operating results and trends, and improves comparability of our period-over-period results. Our management excludes special items from its review of the results of the operating segments for purposes of measuring segment profitability and allocating resources. Our categories of pre-tax special items and the applicable significance guideline for each item (which may consist of a group of items related to a single event or action) are as follows:

Pre-Tax Special Item

Significance Guideline

∘ Pension and OPEB remeasurement gains and losses

∘ No minimum

∘ Personnel expenses, supplier- and dealer-related costs, and facility-related charges stemming from our efforts to match production capacity and cost structure to market demand and changing model mix

∘ Generally $100 million or more

∘ Other items that we do not generally consider to be indicative of earnings from ongoing operating activities

∘ $500 million or more for individual field service actions; generally $100 million or more for other items

•Company Adjusted EBIT Margin (Most Comparable GAAP Measure: Company Net Income/(Loss) Margin) – Company adjusted EBIT margin is Company adjusted EBIT divided by Company revenue. This non-GAAP measure is useful to management and investors because it allows users to evaluate our operating results aligned with industry reporting.

•Adjusted Earnings/(Loss) Per Share (Most Comparable GAAP Measure: Earnings/(Loss) Per Share) – Measure of Company’s diluted net earnings/(loss) per share adjusted for impact of pre-tax special items (described above), tax special items, and restructuring impacts in noncontrolling interests. The measure provides investors with useful information to evaluate performance of our business excluding items not indicative of earnings from ongoing operating activities.

•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.

•Company Adjusted Free 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 Company excluding Ford Credit capital spending, Ford Credit distributions to its parent, and settlement of derivatives. The measure excludes cash outflows for funded pension contributions, restructuring actions, and other items that are considered operating cash flows 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.

•Adjusted ROIC – Calculated as the sum of adjusted net operating profit/(loss) after cash tax from the last four quarters, divided by the average invested capital over the last four quarters. Adjusted Return on Invested Capital (“Adjusted 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/(loss) after cash tax measures operating results less special items, interest on debt (excluding Ford Credit Debt), and certain pension/OPEB costs. Average invested capital is the sum of average balance sheet equity, debt (excluding Ford Credit Debt), and net pension/OPEB liability.

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

When we provide guidance for adjusted EBIT, adjusted earnings/(loss) per share, and adjusted effective tax rate, we do not provide guidance for their respective most comparable GAAP measures as those GAAP measures will include potentially significant special items that have not yet occurred and are difficult to predict with reasonable certainty prior to year-end, including gains and losses on pension and OPEB remeasurement, and other items that are difficult to quantify. When we provide guidance for Company adjusted free cash flow, we do not provide guidance for its most comparable GAAP measure (net cash provided by/(used in) operating activities) as 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.
