Tariff Impacts
General Motors provides a letter to shareholders that is typically brief, but does provide some interesting details.
In it Marry Barra said:
“For example, in June we announced $4 billion of new investment in our U.S. assembly plants to add 300,000 units of capacity for high margin light-duty pickups, full-size SUVs and crossovers. This will help us satisfy unmet customer demand, greatly reduce our tariff exposure, and capture upside opportunities as we launch new models. The capacity begins coming online in just 18 months, after which we project building more than 2 million vehicles in the U.S. each year as we scale.”
Tariffs continue to be in focus. In the second quarter GM said they were a $1.1 billion net impact. I’ve attached the slide on tariffsf rom their earnings presentation below.

General Motors (NYSE: GM) reported Q2 earnings this morning, and Wall Street isn’t too pleased with what they’re seeing.
The automaker is down 3% in premarket trading. Let’s take a look at the earnings, the impacts of tariffs, and more as we’ll keep this live article updated with news and analysis throughout the morning.
The Big Figures
Whenever you’re looking at earnings, the two key figures to watch are revenue and EPS and how they compare to Wall Street estimates. In that regard, General Motors exceeded expectations.
EPS of $2.53 beat Wall Street estimates of $2.34 while revenue of $47.12 billion beat estimates of $45.85 billion.
Not all figures beat, with vehicle sales of 974,000 units below estimates that were just a shade below a million.
So, why are shares down? The company maintains a full-year EPS of $8.25 to $10, but Wall Street estimates had moved up to an estimate of $9.37. That’s above the midpoint GM just reported, so full-year earnings are now below Wall Street expectations.
