NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our consolidated subsidiaries, including certain special purpose entities (SPEs) utilized in secured financing transactions, which are considered variable interest entities (VIEs). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, are condensed and do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the U.S. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements that are included in our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 6, 2019 (2018 Form 10–K). Except as otherwise specified, dollar amounts presented within tables are stated in millions.
The condensed consolidated financial statements at June 30, 2019, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, are unaudited and, in management’s opinion, include all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments and transactions or events discretely impacting the interim periods, considered necessary by management to fairly state our results of operations. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2018 was derived from audited annual financial statements.
Segment Information We are the wholly-owned captive finance subsidiary of General Motors Company (GM). We offer substantially similar products and services throughout many different regions, subject to local regulations and market conditions. We evaluate our business in two operating segments: North America (the North America Segment) and International (the International Segment). Our North America Segment includes operations in the U.S. and Canada. Our International Segment includes operations in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Peru, as well as our equity investments in joint ventures in China.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-02, "Leases" (ASU 2016-02) using the optional transition method, resulting in the recognition of right of use assets of $129 million, included in other assets, and lease obligations of $144 million, included in other liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet related to our existing operating leases at January 1, 2019. We elected to apply the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance in the new standard, which allowed us to carry forward our historical lease classification. The accounting for finance leases and leases where we are lessor remained substantially unchanged. The application of ASU 2016-02 had no impact on our condensed consolidated statement of income or condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.
The following table summarizes our minimum commitments under noncancelable operating leases having initial terms in excess of one year as of December 31, 2018:

Refer to Note 9 for information on our operating leases as of June 30, 2019.
As lessor, we have investments in leased vehicles recorded as operating leases. Leased vehicles consist of automobiles leased to customers and are carried at amortized cost less unearned manufacturer subvention payments, which are received up front. Depreciation expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease agreement to the estimated residual value. Manufacturer subvention is earned on a straight-line basis as a reduction to depreciation expense.
Generally, the lessee may purchase the leased vehicle at the maturity of the lease by paying the purchase price stated in the lease agreement, which equals the contract residual value determined at origination of the lease, plus any fees and all other amounts owed under the lease. If the lessee decides not to purchase the leased vehicle, the lessee must return it to a dealer by the lease's scheduled lease maturity date. Extensions may be granted to the lessee for up to six months. If the lessee extends the maturity date on their lease agreement, the lessee is responsible for additional monthly payments until the leased vehicle is returned or purchased. Since the lessee is not obligated to purchase the vehicle at the end of the contract, we are exposed to a risk of loss to the extent the customer returns the vehicle prior to or at the end of the lease term and the value of the vehicle is lower than the residual value estimated at inception of the lease.
We estimate the expected residual value based on third party data which considers various data points and assumptions including recent auction values, the expected future volume of returning leased vehicles, used vehicle prices, manufacturer incentive programs and fuel prices. Changes in the expected residual value result in increased or decreased depreciation of the leased asset

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

over the remaining term of the lease. Upon disposition, a gain or loss is recorded for any difference between the net book value of the lease and the proceeds from the disposition of the asset, including any insurance proceeds. Under the accounting for impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, vehicles on operating leases are evaluated by asset group for impairment. We aggregate leased vehicles into asset groups based on make, year and model. When asset group indicators of impairment exist and aggregate future cash flows from the operating lease, including the expected realizable fair value of the leased assets at the end of the lease, are less than the book value of the lease asset group, an immediate impairment write-down is recognized if the difference is deemed not recoverable.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In June 2016 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" (ASU 2016-13), which requires entities to use a new impairment model based on current expected credit losses (CECL) rather than incurred losses. We plan to adopt ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 on a modified retrospective basis, which will result in an increase to our allowance for credit losses and a decrease to retained earnings as of the adoption date.
We are currently testing and refining our risk forecasting models, assumption review processes, corporate governance controls and accounting and financial reporting for our implementation of this standard. Estimated credit losses under CECL will consider relevant information about past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectibility of the reported amount, resulting in recognition of lifetime expected credit losses upon loan origination. We expect that our allowance for credit losses will increase under CECL, though the amount of the increase is heavily dependent on the volume, credit mix and seasoning of our loan portfolio.
Note 2. Related Party Transactions
We offer loan and lease finance products through GM-franchised dealers to customers purchasing new vehicles manufactured by GM and certain used vehicles and make commercial loans directly to GM-franchised dealers and their affiliates. We also offer commercial loans to dealers that are consolidated by GM and those balances are included in our finance receivables, net.
Under subvention programs, GM makes cash payments to us for offering incentivized rates and structures on retail loan and lease finance products. In addition, GM makes cash payments to us to cover interest payments on certain commercial loans.
We purchase certain program vehicles from GM subsidiaries. We simultaneously lease these vehicles to those subsidiaries for use primarily in their vehicle-sharing arrangements. We account for these leases as direct-finance leases, sales-type leases or loans depending on the origin of the asset, all of which are included in our finance receivables, net.
We periodically purchase finance receivables from other GM subsidiaries for vehicles sold to rental car companies and for vehicles sold to certain dealerships. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we purchased $442 million and $280 million of these receivables from GM, which are included in our finance receivables, net.
We have related party payables due to GM, primarily for commercial finance receivables originated but not yet funded.

_________________
(a)
Included in finance receivables, net.
(b)
Included in related party receivables. We received subvention payments from GM of $0.9 billion and $1.1 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 and $2.0 billion and $1.7 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.
(c)
Included in related party payables.
(d)
Included in finance charge income.
(e)
Included as a reduction to leased vehicle expenses.
Under the support agreement with GM (the Support Agreement), if our earning assets leverage ratio at the end of any calendar quarter exceeds the applicable threshold set in the Support Agreement, we may require GM to provide funding sufficient to bring our earning assets leverage ratio to within the applicable threshold. In determining our earning assets leverage ratio (net earning assets divided by adjusted equity) under the Support Agreement, net earning assets means our finance receivables, net, plus leased vehicles, net, and adjusted equity means our equity, net of goodwill and inclusive of outstanding junior subordinated debt, as each may be adjusted for derivative accounting from time to time.
Additionally, the Support Agreement provides that GM will own all of our outstanding voting shares as long as we have any unsecured debt securities outstanding. GM also agrees to certain provisions in the Support Agreement intended to ensure that we maintain adequate access to liquidity. Pursuant to these provisions, GM provides us with a $1.0 billion junior subordinated unsecured intercompany revolving credit facility (the Junior Subordinated Revolving Credit Facility), and GM agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that we will continue to be designated as a subsidiary borrower under GM's corporate revolving credit facilities.
In April 2019, GM renewed the 364-day, $2.0 billion facility (the GM Revolving 364-Day Credit Facility) for an additional 364-day term. This facility has been allocated for exclusive access by us since April 2018. At June 30, 2019, we had no amounts borrowed under any of the GM facilities.
We are included in GM's consolidated U.S. federal income tax returns and certain U.S. state returns, and we are obligated to pay GM for our share of these tax liabilities. Amounts owed to GM for income taxes are accrued and recorded as a related party payable. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there are no related party taxes payable to GM.

Retail Credit Quality Our retail finance receivables portfolio includes loans made to consumers and businesses to finance the purchase of vehicles for personal and commercial use. We review the credit quality of our retail finance receivables based on customer payment activity. A retail account is considered delinquent if a substantial portion of a scheduled payment has not been received by the date such payment was contractually due. Retail finance receivables are collateralized by vehicle titles and, subject to local laws, we generally have the right to repossess the vehicle in the event the customer defaults on the payment terms of the contract. The following is a consolidated summary of the contractual amounts of delinquent retail finance receivables, which is not significantly different than the recorded investment for such receivables:

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the accrual of finance charge income had been suspended on retail finance receivables with contractual amounts due of $838 million and $888 million.
Impaired Retail Finance Receivables - TDRs Retail finance receivables that become classified as troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) are separately assessed for impairment. A specific allowance is estimated based on the present value of the expected future cash flows of the receivable discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate. Accounts that become classified as TDRs because of a payment deferral accrue interest at the contractual rate and an additional fee is collected (where permitted) at each time of deferral and recorded as a reduction of accrued interest. No interest or fees are forgiven on a payment deferral to a customer; therefore, there are no additional financial effects of deferred loans becoming classified as TDRs. Accounts in the U.S. in Chapter 13 bankruptcy would have already been placed on non-accrual; therefore, there are no additional financial effects from these loans becoming classified as TDRs. Finance charge income from loans classified as TDRs is accounted for in the same manner as other accruing loans. Cash collections on these loans are allocated according to the same payment hierarchy methodology applied to loans that are not classified as TDRs.
The outstanding recorded investment for retail finance receivables that are considered to be TDRs and the related allowance is presented below:

Commercial Credit Quality Our commercial finance receivables consist of dealer financings, primarily for inventory purchases. Proprietary models are used to assign a risk rating to each dealer. We perform periodic credit reviews of each dealership and adjust the dealership's risk rating, if necessary. Dealers in Group VI are subject to additional restrictions on funding, including suspension of lines of credit and liquidation of assets.

Secured Debt Most of the secured debt was issued by VIEs and is repayable only from proceeds related to the underlying pledged assets. Refer to Note 7 for further discussion.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we entered into new or renewed credit facilities with a total net additional borrowing capacity of $150 million, and we issued $10.4 billion in aggregate principal amount of securitization notes payable with an initial weighted average interest rate of 2.98% and legal final maturity dates ranging from 2022 to 2026.
Unsecured Debt During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we issued $5.4 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior notes with an initial weighted average interest rate of 4.20% and maturity dates ranging from 2021 to 2029.
The principal amount outstanding of our commercial paper in the U.S. was $1.0 billion and $1.2 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
General Motors Financial Company, Inc. is the sole guarantor of its subsidiaries' unsecured debt obligations for which a guarantee is provided.
Compliance with Debt Covenants Several of our revolving credit facilities require compliance with certain financial and operational covenants as well as regular reporting to lenders, including providing certain subsidiary financial statements. Certain of our secured debt agreements also contain various covenants, including maintaining portfolio performance ratios as well as limits on deferment levels. Our unsecured debt obligations contain covenants including limitations on our ability to incur certain liens. At June 30, 2019, we were in compliance with these debt covenants.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

These amounts are related to securitization and credit facilities held by consolidated VIEs. Our continuing involvement with these VIEs consists of servicing assets held by the entities and holding residual interests in the entities. We have determined that we are the primary beneficiary of each VIE because we hold both (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact the VIEs' economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses from and the right to receive benefits of the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. We are not required, and do not currently intend, to provide any additional financial support to these VIEs. Liabilities recognized as a result of consolidating these entities generally do not represent claims against us or our other subsidiaries and assets recognized generally are for the benefit of these entities' operations and cannot be used to satisfy our or our other subsidiaries' obligations.

Note 8. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions. We manage economic risks, including interest rate risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, we enter into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Our derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of our known or expected cash receipts and our known or expected cash payments principally related to our borrowings.
Certain of our foreign operations expose us to fluctuations of foreign interest rates and exchange rates. We primarily finance our earning assets with debt in the same currency to minimize the impact to earnings from our exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates. When we use a different currency, these fluctuations may impact the value of our cash receipts and payments in terms of our functional currency. We enter into derivative financial instruments to protect the value or fix the amount of certain assets and liabilities in terms of the relevant functional currency. The table below presents the gross amounts of fair value of our derivative instruments and the associated notional amounts:

 _________________
(a)
The gross amounts of the fair value of our assets and liabilities are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively. Amounts accrued for interest payments in a net receivable position are included in other assets. Amounts accrued for interest payments in a net payable position are included in other liabilities. All our derivatives are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value for Level 2 instruments was derived using the market approach based on observable market inputs including quoted prices of similar instruments and foreign exchange and interest rate forward curves.
(b)
We primarily enter into derivative instruments through AmeriCredit Financial Services, Inc. (AFSI); however, our SPEs may also be parties to derivative instruments. Agreements between AFSI and its derivative counterparties include rights of setoff for positions with offsetting values or for collateral held or posted. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the fair value of assets and liabilities available for offset was $353 million and $320 million. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we held $162 million and $30 million and posted $140 million and $451 million of collateral available for netting.

Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies
Operating Leases Our lease obligations consist primarily of real estate office space. Certain leases contain escalation clauses and renewal options, and generally our leases have no residual value guarantees or material covenants. We exclude from our balance sheet leases with a term equal to one year or less and do not separate non-lease components from our real estate leases. Rent expense under operating leases was $13 million and $18 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. At June 30, 2019, operating lease right of use assets, included in other assets, were $138 million and operating lease liabilities, included in other liabilities, were $159 million. Operating lease right of use assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations were $27 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019. As of June 30, 2019, our undiscounted future lease obligations related to operating leases having initial terms in excess of one year are $14 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019 and $27 million, $26 million, $24 million, $20 million and $78 million for the years 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and thereafter. The weighted average discount rate is 4.4% and the weighted average remaining lease term is 8.0 years as of June 30, 2019. Imputed interest for operating leases and variable lease costs were insignificant for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.
Guarantees of Indebtedness At both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we guaranteed approximately $1.1 billion in aggregate principal amount of Euro Medium Term Notes issued by General Motors Financial International B.V., our former subsidiary, pursuant to our Euro Medium Term Note Programme. Subject to the terms and conditions of a letter agreement with BNP Paribas in connection with the sale of certain of our European Operations, BNP Paribas will reimburse us for any amount that we may pay under any such guarantees.
Legal Proceedings We are subject to various pending and potential legal and regulatory proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including litigation, arbitration, claims, investigations, examinations, subpoenas and enforcement proceedings. Some litigation against us could take the form of class actions. The outcome of these proceedings is inherently uncertain, and thus we cannot confidently predict how or when proceedings will be resolved. An adverse outcome in one or more of these proceedings could result in substantial damages, settlements, fines, penalties, diminished income or reputational harm. We identify below the material proceedings in connection with which we believe a material loss is reasonably possible or probable.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

In accordance with the current accounting standards for loss contingencies, we establish reserves for legal matters when it is probable that a loss associated with the matter has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The actual costs of resolving legal matters may be higher or lower than any amounts reserved for these matters. At June 30, 2019, we estimated our reasonably possible legal exposure for unfavorable outcomes is up to $67 million, and we have accrued $23 million.
In 2014 and 2015, we were served with investigative subpoenas from various state attorneys general and other governmental offices to produce documents and data relating to our automobile loan and lease business and securitization of loans and leases. We believe that we have cooperated fully with all reasonable requests for information. We are currently unable to estimate any reasonably possible loss or range of loss that may result from these investigations.
Other Administrative Tax Matters We accrue non-income tax liabilities for contingencies when management believes that a loss is probable and the amounts can be reasonably estimated, while contingent gains are recognized only when realized. In the event any losses are sustained in excess of accruals, they will be charged against income at that time.
In evaluating indirect tax matters, we take into consideration factors such as our historical experience with matters of similar nature, specific facts and circumstances, and the likelihood of prevailing. We reevaluate and update our accruals as matters progress over time. Where there is a reasonable possibility that losses exceeding amounts already recognized may be incurred, our estimate of the additional range of loss is up to $14 million as of June 30, 2019.

Note 11. Income Taxes
For interim income tax reporting we estimate our annual effective tax rate and apply it to our year-to-date ordinary income. Tax jurisdictions with a projected or year-to-date loss for which a tax benefit cannot be realized are excluded from the annualized effective tax rate. The tax effects of unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, are reported in the interim period in which they occur.
During the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, income tax expense of $133 million and $94 million primarily resulted from tax expense attributable to entities included in our effective tax rate calculation. The increase in income tax expense is due primarily to a reduction in our electrical vehicle tax credit. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, income tax expense of $221 million and $168 million primarily resulted from tax expense attributable to entities included in our effective tax rate calculation. The increase in income tax expense is due primarily to a reduction in our electrical vehicle tax credit.
We are included in GM’s consolidated U.S. federal income tax return and for certain states’ income tax returns. Net operating losses and certain tax credits generated by us have been utilized by GM; however, income tax expense and deferred tax balances are presented in these financial statements as if we filed our own tax returns in each jurisdiction.

Note 13. Regulatory Capital and Other Regulatory Matters
We are required to comply with a wide variety of laws and regulations. Certain of our entities operate in international markets as either banks or regulated finance companies that are subject to regulatory restrictions. These regulatory restrictions, among other things, require that certain of these entities meet minimum capital requirements and may restrict dividend distributions and ownership of certain assets. We were in compliance with all regulatory capital requirements as most recently reported. Total assets of our regulated international banks and finance companies were approximately $7.7 billion and $7.9 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-looking statements in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) are not guarantees of future performance and may involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Refer to the "Forward-Looking Statements" section of this MD&A and the "Risk Factors" section of our 2018 Form 10-K for a discussion of these risks and uncertainties.
Basis of Presentation
This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2018 Form 10-K.
Except as otherwise specified, dollar amounts presented within tables are stated in millions. Average balances are calculated using daily balances, where available. Otherwise, average balances are calculated using monthly balances.
Results of Operations
Earnings before taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2019 decreased to $895 million from $979 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 due primarily to the following:
Retail finance charge income increased $151 million due primarily to an increase in the average balance of the consumer finance receivables portfolio, partially offset by a decrease in effective yield as the portfolio shifts to lower yielding prime loan assets.
Commercial finance charge income increased $94 million due to an increase in the average balance of the commercial finance receivables portfolio as well as increased interest rates on the portfolio.
Leased vehicle income net of leased vehicle expenses increased $97 million due primarily to a higher volume of lease terminations.
Provision expense increased $90 million due primarily to a decrease in the loss confirmation period and an increase in the recovery rate forecast on repossessed vehicles, both of which we recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Interest expense increased $364 million with $183 million of the increase due to an increase in the average balance of debt outstanding, and $181 million of the increase due to an increase in the effective rate of interest on debt.
Return on average common equity is widely used to measure earnings in relation to invested capital. Our return on average common equity decreased to 13.0% for the four quarters ended June 30, 2019 from 14.7% for the four quarters ended June 30, 2018 due primarily to a higher effective tax rate.
We use return on average tangible common equity (a non-GAAP measure) to measure our contribution to GM's enterprise profitability and cash flow. Our return on average tangible common equity decreased to 14.7% for the four quarters ended June 30, 2019 from 16.8% for the four quarters ended June 30, 2018 due primarily to a higher effective tax rate.
The following table presents our reconciliation of return on average tangible common equity to return on average common equity, the most directly comparable GAAP measure:

Our calculation of this non-GAAP measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential differences between companies in the method of calculation. As a result, the use of this non-GAAP measure has limitations and should not be considered superior to, in isolation from, or as a substitute for, related U.S. GAAP measures. This non-GAAP measure allows investors the opportunity to measure and monitor our performance against our externally communicated targets and evaluate the investment decisions being made by management to improve our return on average tangible common equity. Management uses this measure in its financial, investment and operational decision-making processes, for internal reporting and as part of its forecasting and budgeting processes. For these reasons we believe this non-GAAP measure is useful for our investors.

Average retail finance receivables increased due to a higher volume of new loan originations in excess of principal collections and payoffs. Our retail penetration of GM's retail sales in the U.S. increased to 47.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from 45.4% for three months ended June 30, 2018 due primarily to further alignment with GM and greater dealer engagement. Average commercial finance receivables increased due primarily to an increase in our GM-franchised dealer commercial lending relationships. Leased vehicles purchased during the three months ended June 30, 2019 decreased primarily as a result of a change in GM's retail sales mix.

Finance charge income on commercial finance receivables increased due to growth in the portfolio, including an increase in the number of dealers in our floorplan program, and an increase in the effective yield resulting from rising benchmark interest rates.
Other income increased due primarily to an increase in investment income due to higher short-term interest rates.

Operating Expenses Operating expenses as an annualized percentage of average earning assets decreased to 1.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from 1.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2018, due primarily to efficiency gains achieved through higher earning asset levels.
Provision for Loan Losses As an annualized percentage of average retail finance receivables, the provision for retail loan losses increased to 1.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from 1.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2018, due primarily to an increase in our recovery rate forecast on repossessed vehicles we recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2018.
Interest Expense Interest expense increased due to an increase in the average debt outstanding resulting from growth in earning assets as well as a higher effective rate of interest on our debt.
Taxes Our consolidated effective income tax rate was 26.9% and 19.1% of income before income taxes and equity income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. The increase in the effective income tax rate is due primarily to a reduction in our electrical vehicle tax credit.
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment Foreign currency translation adjustments included in other comprehensive income (loss) were $8 million and $(245) million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. Translation adjustments resulted from changes in the values of our international currency-denominated assets and liabilities as the value of the U.S. Dollar changed in relation to international currencies. The foreign currency translation gain for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was due primarily to changes in the value of the Chinese Yuan Renminbi and the Canadian Dollar. The foreign currency translation loss for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was due primarily to changes in the value of the Brazilian Real, the Chinese Yuan Renminbi, the Mexican Peso and the Canadian Dollar.

Operating Expenses Operating expenses as an annualized percentage of average earning assets decreased to 1.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from 1.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, due primarily to efficiency gains achieved through higher earning asset levels.
Provision for Loan Losses As an annualized percentage of average retail finance receivables, the provision for retail loan losses increased to 1.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from 1.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, due primarily to a decrease in the loss confirmation period as well as an increase in our recovery rate forecast on repossessed vehicles, both of which we recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2018. The loss confirmation period, which represents the average amount of time between when a loss event first occurs to when the receivable is charged off, decreased due to a shift in the credit mix of the portfolio to a larger percentage of prime loans.
Interest Expense Interest expense increased due to an increase in the average debt outstanding resulting from growth in earning assets as well as a higher effective rate of interest on our debt.
Taxes Our consolidated effective income tax rate was 27.4% and 19.0% of income before income taxes and equity income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. The increase in the effective income tax rate is due primarily to a reduction in our electrical vehicle tax credit.
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment Foreign currency translation adjustments included in other comprehensive income (loss) were $65 million and $(186) million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. Translation adjustments resulted from changes in the values of our international currency-denominated assets and liabilities as the value of the U.S. Dollar changed in relation to international currencies. The foreign currency translation gain for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was due primarily to changes in the value of the Canadian Dollar and the Mexican Peso. The foreign currency translation loss for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was due primarily to changes in the value of the Brazilian Real, the Canadian Dollar and the Chinese Yuan Renminbi.

Used vehicle prices for the six months ended June 30, 2019 decreased slightly compared to the same period in 2018. We expect used vehicle prices to decrease between 4% and 5% for the full year 2019 compared to 2018, due primarily to continued increases in the industry supply of used vehicles as well as increases in our volume of lease terminations.

(b)
Calculated as the number of operating leases returned divided by the number of operating leases terminated.
Operating leases originated decreased primarily as a result of a change in GM's retail sales mix. Operating leases terminated and operating lease vehicles returned increased due to the maturity of the leased asset portfolio. The return rate can fluctuate based upon the level of used vehicle pricing compared to residual values at lease inception and growth and age of the lease portfolio.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
General Our primary sources of cash are finance charge income, leasing income and proceeds from the sale of terminated leased vehicles, net distributions from credit facilities, securitizations, secured and unsecured borrowings, and collections and recoveries on finance receivables. Our primary uses of cash are purchases of retail finance receivables and leased vehicles, the funding of commercial finance receivables, repayment of secured and unsecured debt, funding credit enhancement requirements in connection with securitizations and secured credit facilities, interest costs and operating expenses.
Typically, our purchase and funding of retail and commercial finance receivables and leased vehicles are financed initially by utilizing cash and borrowings on our secured credit facilities. Subsequently, we typically obtain long-term financing for finance receivables and leased vehicles through securitization transactions and the issuance of unsecured debt.

GENERAL MOTORS FINANCIAL COMPANY, INC.

Cash Flow During the six months ended June 30, 2019, net cash provided by operating activities increased due primarily to a decrease in net collateral posted for derivative positions of $0.7 billion as a result of favorable changes in interest rates on our collateralized derivative portfolio.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, net cash used in investing activities decreased due primarily to increased collections and recoveries on retail finance receivables of $4.5 billion, an increase in proceeds received on terminated leases of $1.1 billion, a decrease in purchases of leased vehicles of $0.9 billion, and a decrease in funding of commercial finance receivables of $0.3 billion, partially offset by an increase in purchases of retail finance receivables of $3.3 billion.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, net cash used in financing activities increased due primarily to an increase in payments, net of borrowings of $5.2 billion.

Includes $430 million and $503 million in unrestricted cash outside of the U.S. at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. This cash is considered to be indefinitely invested based on specific plans for reinvestment of these earnings.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, available liquidity increased due primarily to an increase in borrowing capacity on new and renewed secured revolving credit facilities, resulting from the issuance of securitizations and unsecured debt.
The Support Agreement provides that GM will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that we will continue to be designated as a subsidiary borrower under GM's unsecured revolving credit facilities. In April 2019, GM renewed the GM Revolving 364-Day Credit Facility for an additional 364-day term. This facility has been allocated for exclusive access by us since April 2018. At June 30, 2019, we had no borrowings outstanding under any of these facilities.
Credit Facilities In the normal course of business, in addition to using our available cash, we fund our operations by borrowing under our credit facilities, which may be secured and/or structured as securitizations, or may be unsecured. We repay these borrowings as appropriate under our liquidity management strategy.

Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains several "forward-looking statements." Forward-looking statements are those that use words such as "believe," "expect," "intend," "plan," "may," "likely," "should," "estimate," "continue," "future" or "anticipate" and other comparable expressions. These words indicate future events and trends. Forward-looking statements are our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. These forward-looking statements are subject to many assumptions, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ significantly from historical results or from those anticipated by us. The most significant risks are detailed from time to time in our filings and reports with the SEC, including our 2018 Form 10-K. It is advisable not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to, and do not, publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, except as required by federal securities laws, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
The following factors are among those that may cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or from the forward-looking statements:
GM's ability to sell new vehicles that we finance in the markets we serve;
the viability of GM-franchised dealers that are commercial loan customers;
changes in the automotive industry that result in a change in demand for vehicles and related vehicle financing;
the sufficiency, availability and cost of sources of financing, including credit facilities, securitization programs and secured and unsecured debt issuances;
our joint ventures in China, which we cannot operate solely for our benefit and over which we have limited control;
the adequacy of our underwriting criteria for loans and leases and the level of net charge-offs, delinquencies and prepayments on the loans and leases we purchase or originate;
the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses on our finance receivables;
the effect, interpretation or application of new or existing laws, regulations, court decisions and accounting pronouncements;
adverse determinations with respect to the application of existing laws, or the results of any audits from tax authorities, as well as changes in tax laws and regulations, supervision, enforcement and licensing across various jurisdictions;
the prices at which used vehicles are sold in the wholesale auction markets;
vehicle return rates, our ability to estimate residual value at the inception of a lease and the residual value performance on vehicles we lease;
interest rate fluctuations and certain related derivatives exposure;
foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and other risks applicable to our operations outside of the U.S.;
changes to the LIBOR calculation process and potential phasing out of LIBOR;
our ability to effectively manage capital or liquidity consistent with evolving business or operational needs, risk management standards, and regulatory or supervisory requirements;
changes in local, regional, national or international economic, social or political conditions;
our ability to maintain and expand our market share due to competition in the automotive finance industry from a large number of banks, credit unions, independent finance companies and other captive automotive finance subsidiaries;
our ability to secure private customer and employee data or our proprietary information, manage risks related to security breaches and other disruptions to our networks and systems and comply with enterprise data regulations in all key market regions; and
changes in business strategy, including expansion of product lines and credit risk appetite, acquisitions and divestitures.
If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary materially from those expected, estimated or projected.
