Trade Policy.
−Removed: To the extent governments in various regions implement or intensify barriers to imports, such as erecting tariff or non-tariff barriers or manipulating their currency, and provide advantages to local exporters selling into the global marketplace, there can be a significant negative impact on manufacturers based in other markets.
−Removed: In addition, as governments consider an expanded use of tariffs as a lever in achieving a balance of trade, this new dynamic could have a substantial adverse effect on our business and the automotive sector.
−Removed: The new, substantial tariff increases on imports to the United States from Canada and Mexico (in addition to China) announced on February 1, 2025, should they be implemented and sustained for an extended period of time, would have a significant adverse effect, including financial, on the overall automotive industry, Ford, and our supply chain.
−Removed: We will continue to monitor and address the developing role that geopolitical, climate, and labor concerns are playing in trade relations.
+Added: To the extent governments in various regions implement or intensify restrictions or barriers to trade, such as tariff or non-tariff barriers, export controls, currency manipulation, or policies that otherwise favor domestic companies, there can be a significant negative impact on manufacturers based in other markets.
+Added: Tariffs implemented to date in the United States and elsewhere have caused significant disruption, increased costs (both directly and indirectly), and uncertainty in the automotive industry, including for Ford, other OEMs, suppliers, and dealers, as well as customers.
+Added: Moreover, tariffs implemented or increased in the United States and elsewhere in the future may exacerbate these impacts.
+Added: Further, instability in the supply chain exacerbated by tariffs and other industry concerns, such as China’s restriction on the export of rare earth minerals and various components, has resulted in production disruptions and increased costs and heightens the risk of future production disruptions and additional cost increases.
+Added: Tariffs have affected and will continue to affect all OEMs, to various degrees.
+Added: In 2025, Ford’s gross costs related to tariffs implemented or revised in 2025 was about $3 billion, including the impact of tariff relief, and the net EBIT impact was about $2 billion after offsets.
+Added: This relief is subject to periodic approval by the U.S.
+Added: Department of Commerce and may be revised based on factors such as U.S.
+Added: production and import content levels.
+Added: As of December 31, 2025, we recognized a receivable of $974 million reflecting tariffs paid but for which we had not yet received refunds.
+Added: Although we have started to receive refunds, the timing for our receipt of refunds is uncertain and is subject to changes in trade policy.
+Added: Tariffs, particularly on auto parts for U.S.
+Added: assembly, if sustained for an extended period of time, will have a significant adverse effect on U.S.
+Added: production and the overall automotive industry.
+Added: For additional information regarding the impact and potential impact of trade policy and tariffs on our business, see the Outlook section on page 74 of this Report and Item 1A.
+Added: Risk Factors.
Production and Supply Chain.
−Removed: We continued to see improved supply chain throughput in 2024 resulting from improved resilience to short term disruptions.
−Removed: However, production constraints due to capacity and labor shortages remain as we adjust to shifting market conditions and balance our production mix, and the increased tariffs announced on February 1, 2025 and any additional tariffs, as discussed above, could have a significant impact on our supply chain and, in turn, our production.
+Added: Market volatility and shifting global supply chains have continued to create some production constraints, though conditions have improved from the immediate post-COVID period.
+Added: As we adjust to shifting market conditions and balance our production mix, continued uncertainty with regard to current and future levels of tariffs, as discussed above, could have a significant impact on our supply chain and, in turn, our production.
We continue to reevaluate our supply base and sourcing decisions and may in the future incur charges to improve flexibility and cost competitiveness.
+Added: In September 2025 and November 2025, fires at a Novelis Inc.
+Added: plant in New York disrupted operations at the facility.
+Added: 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 exploring potential alternative sources of aluminum.
+Added: We have also sought mitigating actions to minimize potential disruptions to our operations.
+Added: Although the ultimate impact on Ford is uncertain, we experienced lower production in the fourth quarter of 2025 driven by the Novelis fires, which we expect to recover partially in 2026.
+Added: For more information regarding the impact and potential impact of the Novelis fires on our business, see the Outlook section on page 74 of this Report.
+Added: Risk Factors for additional discussion of the risks related to disruptions to Ford’s and Ford’s suppliers’ production and operations.
+Added: Electric Vehicle Market.
+Added: Although we are investing in our EV strategy, we anticipate that the EV market will continue to evolve.
+Added: To date, we have observed lower-than-anticipated industrywide EV adoption rates due to changes in consumer sentiment, competitive dynamics, legal and policy changes, and significant developments in vehicle pricing dynamics, among other factors that we continue to monitor.
+Added: The trend may be further exacerbated as policy changes in the United States have reduced or eliminated supply- and demand-side EV incentives, which may further slow the adoption of EVs.
+Added: Moreover, potentially significant reductions in the stringency of federal emissions and fuel economy standards and federal legislation that eliminated the authority of California and other states to implement and enforce their most stringent emissions standards and zero-emission vehicle sales requirements, and other actions that may be forthcoming, may add to the disruption of the market for EVs in the United States, our largest market.
+Added: These developments, which may continue to affect the pace of EV adoption, could extend the period of underutilization of EV production capacity across the industry.
+Added: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
+Added: This environment has led us, and may in the future lead us, to adjust our investments, spending, production, and product and future technology launches to better match the pace of EV adoption.
+Added: As a result of the lower-than-anticipated adoption rates, near-term pricing pressures, and other factors, we have recorded and may continue to incur charges related to payments to our EV-related suppliers (battery, raw material, or otherwise), inventory adjustments, impairments, or other matters.
+Added: For example, in 2024, we announced the cancellation of an all-electric three-row SUV program.
+Added: The impact of that cancellation also resulted in changes to future technology and product launches.
+Added: Through December 31, 2025, we incurred expenses of $2.4 billion related to these actions, all of which we reported as special items.
+Added: Although we do not expect to incur significant additional expenses, cash payments related to these actions will continue through 2026.
+Added: In 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.
+Added: As a result of the challenges facing the EV market and the decisions we made in response to those challenges, we recorded the following charges as special items:
+Added: an $8.4 billion pre-tax non-cash impairment charge, including goodwill, for our Model e long-lived assets;
+Added: $1.1 billion of non-cash asset write-downs related to the EV program cancellations described above;
+Added: and $1.2 billion of other charges to be paid in cash (primarily related to contractual commitments related to those programs).
+Added: We may incur additional expenses and cash expenditures of up to about $4 billion related to these actions and will recognize those charges in the quarter they are incurred as a special item.
+Added: In addition, in December 2025, Ford, SK On Co., Ltd., and SK Battery America, Inc., and BlueOval SK, LLC (“BOSK”) entered into a Joint Venture Disposition Agreement (“JVDA”), pursuant to which our membership interest in BOSK will be redeemed, and a Ford subsidiary will receive BOSK’s two Kentucky plants and related assets, and will assume the related liabilities.
+Added: The value of the liabilities assumed is expected to exceed the value of the assets received;
+Added: accordingly, we do not expect to recover the carrying amount of our investment in BOSK.
+Added: Therefore, in the fourth quarter of 2025, we recorded a $3.2 billion pre-tax non-cash impairment charge as a special item.
+Added: Upon closing of the transactions contemplated by the JVDA (expected in the first half of 2026), we expect to recognize additional special item charges of about $3 billion, which includes about $500 million of cash expenditures.
+Added: For additional information about BOSK and the JVDA, see Note 23 of the Notes to the Financial Statements.
+Added: In total, in the fourth quarter of 2025, we recorded about $13.8 billion of charges related to our updated EV strategy and the expected disposition of our BOSK investment.
+Added: These regulatory and market dynamics may continue to occur, which could have a substantial adverse impact on our results of operations and/or business, including our investments in supply, production capacity, and equity method investments.
+Added: Further, the pace of EV adoption and slower-than-anticipated development of the EV market may impact our strategy to comply with regulatory emissions and fuel economy standards and zero-emission vehicle requirements.
+Added: Although recent actions taken and expected to be taken in the United States and elsewhere may eliminate or reduce the stringency of such standards, if consumers do not purchase our EVs and other highly fuel-efficient vehicles in sufficient numbers, it may be difficult for Ford to meet applicable environmental standards in certain markets and may force us to take various product-led actions (e.g., curtailing the production and sale of certain internal combustion vehicles) that could have substantial adverse effects on our sales volume and operations and/or purchase compliance credits from third parties.
+Added: 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.
+Added: Business” and “Item 1A.
+Added: Risk Factors” above.
Currency Exchange Rate Volatility.
−Removed: Globally, central banks have begun shifting from tightening policy by raising interest rates to holding rates steady or, in several markets, beginning to cut rates.
−Removed: As they do, they need to carefully balance the risk that inflation remains elevated against the heightened financial and economic risks associated with high interest rates.
+Added: Although a few global central banks have raised interest rates recently, most remain in the process of lowering policy rates that had been elevated in order to address inflation concerns.
+Added: As these policy rates shift, central banks need to carefully balance the risk that inflation remains elevated against the heightened financial and economic risks associated with high interest rates.
This is notable for many emerging markets, which may also face increased exposure to commodity prices and political instability, contributing to unpredictable movements in the value of their exchange rates.
2 unchanged sentences
However, in some markets, exchange rates are heavily influenced or controlled by governments.
+Added: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Pricing Pressure.
−Removed: Despite vehicle pricing remaining elevated over the last year due to strong demand, supply shortages, and inflationary costs, we have already observed some declines in new and used vehicle prices as auto production recovers from the semiconductor shortage, but it is unclear whether prices will decline fully to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels.
+Added: Despite vehicle pricing remaining elevated over the last year due to strong demand, lingering supply shortages, tariffs, and inflationary costs, we have already observed some declines in new and used vehicle prices, especially in the EV segment, but it is unclear whether industry prices will decline fully to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels as costs remain elevated.
Intense competition and excess capacity are likely to put downward pressure on inflation-adjusted prices, including increased marketing incentives, for similarly contented vehicles and contribute to a challenging pricing environment for the automotive industry in most major markets.
−Removed: Electric Vehicle Market.
−Removed: Although we continue to invest in our electric vehicle strategy, we have observed lower-than-anticipated industrywide electric vehicle adoption rates and near-term pricing pressures, which has led us, and may in the future lead us, to adjust our spending, production, and/or product launches to better match the pace of electric vehicle adoption.
−Removed: In 2024, we recorded $1.2 billion of expenses related to the cancellation of a previously announced all-electric three-row SUV program.
−Removed: We may incur additional expenses and cash expenditures of about $700 million related to the cancellation, the majority of which we expect to record by the first half of 2025.
−Removed: Further, significant unexpected changes in the EV demand environment have led, and may in the future lead, to incremental competitive pricing actions, and we may continue to incur expenses related to payments to our electric vehicle-related suppliers (battery, raw material, or otherwise), asset write-downs, or other matters.
−Removed: These market dynamics may continue to occur, which could have a substantial impact on our business, including our investments in supply and production capacity.
−Removed: In addition, policy change in the United States could reduce or eliminate supply- and demand-side incentives, resulting in slower adoption of EVs.
−Removed: Further, the pace of EV adoption could force Ford to take various product-led actions (e.g., curtailing the production and sale of certain internal combustion vehicles) that could have substantial adverse effects on our sales volume and operations.
−Removed: Risk Factors for additional discussion of the risks related to lower-than-anticipated electric vehicle volumes and our planned transition to a greater mix of electric vehicles.
Commodity and Energy Prices.
Prices for commodities remain volatile.
−Removed: Spot prices for various commodities have recently diverged somewhat, as weakening in global industrial activity mitigates price increases for base metals such as steel and aluminum, while precious metals (e.g., palladium), and raw materials that are used in batteries for electric vehicles (e.g., lithium, cobalt, and nickel) have declined from historic highs but remain elevated.
−Removed: The net impact on us and our suppliers has been higher material costs overall.
−Removed: To help ensure supply of raw materials for critical components (e.g.,
−Removed: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
−Removed: batteries), we, like others in the industry, have entered into multi-year sourcing agreements and may enter into additional agreements.
−Removed: Similar dynamics are impacting energy markets, with Europe particularly exposed to the risk of both higher prices and constraints on supply of natural gas due to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
−Removed: Such shortages may impact facilities operated by us or our suppliers, which could have an impact on us in Europe and other regions.
+Added: Spot prices for various commodities have recently diverged, as weakening global EV demand mitigates price increases for battery-related commodities, while base metals such as steel and aluminum face tariff-related impacts, and precious metals (e.g., palladium) also remain at elevated price levels due to geopolitical uncertainty and other factors.
+Added: Overall, the net impact on us and our suppliers has been higher material costs.
+Added: To help ensure supply of raw materials for critical components, we, like others in the industry, have entered into multi-year sourcing agreements and may enter into additional agreements.
In the long term, the outcome of de-carbonization and electrification of the vehicle fleet may depress oil demand, but geopolitical dynamics and the global energy transition will also contribute to ongoing volatility of oil and other energy prices.
+Added: Inflation and Interest Rates.
+Added: We continue to see lingering impacts on our business due to inflation, including ongoing geopolitical volatility, driving up labor costs, freight premiums, and other operating costs above historical rates.
+Added: Although headline inflation in the United States and Europe appears to have peaked, core inflation (excluding food and energy prices) remains elevated and is a source of continued cost pressure on businesses and households.
+Added: Interest rates have increased significantly and are only now beginning to decline, as central banks in developed countries attempted to subdue inflation while government deficits and debt remain at high levels in many global markets.
+Added: Accordingly, the eventual implications of higher government deficits and debt, tighter monetary policy, and potentially higher long-term interest rates may drive a higher cost of capital for our business.
+Added: At Ford Credit, rising interest rates may impact its ability to source funding and offer financing at competitive rates, which could reduce its financing margin.
Vehicle Profitability.
2 unchanged sentences
For example, in Ford Blue, our larger, more profitable vehicles had an average contribution margin that was 153% of our total average contribution margin across all vehicles, whereas our smaller vehicles had significantly lower contribution margins.
−Removed: In addition, government regulations aimed at reducing emissions and increasing fuel efficiency (e.g., ZEV mandates and low emission zones), and other factors that accelerate the transition to electrified vehicles, may increase the cost of vehicles by more than the perceived benefit to consumers and dampen margins.
