Ford reinstates full-year outlook, including $2 billion tariff hit
UNITED STATES, JUL 30 – Ford raises its full-year tariff cost forecast to $2 billion, citing ongoing steel, aluminum, and parts levies that continue to pressure earnings and offset strong EV sales growth.
- On Wednesday, Ford Motor Co. will report its second-quarter earnings after the market's close, with full-year guidance suspended in May due to tariffs.
- Amid ongoing U.S. levies, President Donald Trump’s 25% tariffs on imported vehicles and auto parts remain in effect, cutting $800 million from Ford’s quarter ending in June.
- Reporting $50.2 billion in revenue, Ford posted adjusted earnings per share of $0.37, beating analysts' $0.33 estimate.
- Forecasting full-year EBIT, Ford expects $6.5 billion to $7.5 billion, down from February’s projection of $7.0 billion to $8.5 billion.
- Future projections show Ford expects $2 billion in tariff costs this year, and the end of a $7,500 EV tax credit in September may dampen sales.
