OTHER EVENTS On January 16, 2002, a news release was issued on the subject of fourth quarter consolidated earnings for General Motors Corporation (GM). The news release did not include certain financial statements, related footnotes and certain other financial information that will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of GM's Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following is the fourth quarter earnings release for GM, and their subsidiary Hughes Electronics Corporation's (Hughes) earnings release dated January 15, 2002. GM EARNS $1.5 BILLION, OR $3.23 PER SHARE IN CALENDAR-YEAR 2001 FOURTH QUARTER EARNINGS TOTAL $255 MILLION, OR $0.60 PER SHARE -- MARKET MOMENTUM, COST REDUCTIONS, STRONG CASH GENERATION ARE KEY DRIVERS -- GMAC HAS SEVENTH-STRAIGHT YEAR OF EARNINGS GROWTH DETROIT -- Market-share gains spurred by strong new product entries coupled with an intense focus on reducing costs partially offset relentless price pressures as General Motors Corp. (NYSE: GM, GMH) earned $1.5 billion, or $3.23 diluted earnings per share, in calendar-year 2001 on revenues of $177.3 billion, excluding special items. That compares with earnings of $5.0 billion, or $8.58 per share, and revenues of $183.3 billion in the prior year, excluding special items. Including special items, GM had net income of $601 million, or $1.77 per share, in 2001; this compares with $4.5 billion, or $6.68 per share, in the prior year. GM earned $255 million, or $0.60 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2001, including the approximately $97 million, or $0.14 per share, unfavorable effect of the currency devaluation in Argentina. This compares with $609 million, or $1.15 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2000, excluding special items. There were no special items in the fourth quarter of 2001. GM financial results described throughout the remainder of this release exclude special items unless otherwise noted (see Highlights). "Our performance in 2001 was quite strong considering all of the challenges we faced, and we intend to continue building momentum throughout the coming year," said GM Chairman Jack Smith. "Our market-share gains demonstrate that GM's dedication to developing innovative new products is paying off in the marketplace. Our focus in the coming year is to build on our market success and make further improvements in our financial performance." "We're in good shape to meet the tough competitive challenges in the year ahead," said GM President and Chief Executive Officer Rick Wagoner. "We gained momentum in the fourth quarter with our great products and the highly successful Keep America Rolling marketing campaign, ending the year with low U.S. dealer inventories. As we continue to introduce more new models this year, and intensify our focus on efficiencies and cost reductions, we're well-positioned when the economy rebounds." Cash, marketable securities, and assets of the Voluntary Employees' Beneficiary Association (VEBA) trust invested in short-term fixed-income securities, excluding Hughes, totaled $11.5 billion at Dec. 31, 2001, compared with $11.0 billion at Sept. 30, 2001. - 2 - GM AUTOMOTIVE OPERATIONS GM's global automotive operations earned $708 million in calendar-year 2001, compared with $3.9 billion in 2000. Fourth-quarter earnings totaled $66 million versus $393 million in the prior-year period. Wholesale volume declined approximately 8 percent in calendar-year 2001, and approximately 6 percent in the fourth quarter, compared with the same periods of 2000. Lower sales volume and strong pricing competition affected results in North America, where GM's annual wholesale vehicle sales declined 11 percent from prior-year levels. Similar pricing pressures affected Europe, along with the shift in consumer preference toward smaller, less-profitable vehicles and unfavorable country mix. Net price retention in calendar-year 2001 was negative 1.3 percent in both North America and Europe. Results in the Asia-Pacific region were driven by strong profitability and market leadership by Australia-based Holden. In the Latin America/Africa/Mid-East region, market share was the highest for a fourth quarter in 12 years and sales volume increased. However, pricing pressure from the supplier community, based partially on the decline in value of the Brazilian currency, and unfavorable product mix offset these gains. GM increased its calendar-year market share in the United States for the first time since 1990, as its strong truck lineup broke the industry record for truck sales. Sales of full-size pickups were the best since 1978, and GM shattered the all-time industry sport utility vehicle (SUV) sales record, becoming the first manufacturer to sell more than one million SUVs in a calendar year. GM's share of the U.S. truck market increased 2.2 percentage points to 29.2 percent for 2001, while total vehicle share increased 0.3 percentage points, totaling 28.1 percent for the year. Particularly significant was the improved mix of retail sales as GM continued to focus its sales efforts on the more profitable retail side of the business. Retail sales increased 2.8 percentage points to 81.6 percent of all GM U.S. sales. GM also gained market share in the GM North America (GMNA), Latin America/Africa/Mid-East (GMLAAM), and Asia-Pacific (GMAP) regions, while holding share steady in GM Europe (GME). GM's global market share totaled 15.1 percent in 2001, compared with 15.0 percent in 2000. Combined sales of GM and its automotive alliance partners - Fiat Auto, Fuji Heavy Industries (Subaru), Isuzu Motor Corp., and Suzuki Motor Corp. - represented 23.7 percent of the global automotive market in 2001, compared with 23.3 percent in the prior year. "To translate our market success into higher profits, our global automotive operations continue to focus on improving quality and increasing productivity, and our entire company is concentrating on reducing costs," Wagoner said. "We've targeted significant reductions in material and structural costs for 2002, in addition to reducing non-product-related capital expenditures." In the 2001 Harbour Report, GM's manufacturing operations outpaced all other multi-plant manufacturers in North America with an overall productivity improvement of nearly 8.5 percent. In addition, GM scored the biggest improvement of any automaker in the 2001 J.D. Power & Associates initial quality survey. GM not only achieved the highest quality gains, but also led all U.S. automakers and is closing the gap with the best Japanese manufacturers. - 3 - General Motors is receiving very positive reaction from the three new production vehicles and five concept cars that were unveiled to automotive journalists from around the world last week at the 2002 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. "The excitement that these vehicles generated amplifies the overall enthusiasm our products are generating in the market," Wagoner said. "We intend to build on this momentum by introducing nearly 40 new products between now and 2003, including six in the crucial entry-level market. This is continuing evidence that GM's aggressive product program, focused on great designs, excellent handling and innovation, is paying off." GM vehicles have received more than 70 awards since the beginning of 2001, including the following highly influential citations: - Motor Trend "SUV of the Year" - GMC Envoy - Motor Trend "Truck of the Year" - Chevrolet Avalanche - "North American Truck of the Year" - Chevrolet TrailBlazer - AutoWeek North American International Auto Show Awards - Cadillac Cien and Pontiac Solstice concept cars - "International Van of the Year" - First Place: Opel Vivaro; Second Place: Opel Combo - Brazilian Automotive Press Association "Popular Car of the Year" - Chevrolet Celta; "SUV of the Year" - Chevrolet Tracker (Vitara) GMAC For 2001, GMAC achieved income growth for the seventh consecutive year and posted record earnings for the third-straight year. GMAC's 2001 earnings of $1.8 billion were 9.4 percent higher than during the prior year. GMAC's fourth-quarter earnings in 2001 of $435 million were up $26 million, or more than 6 percent, from a year ago. Earnings from Financing Operations increased as higher asset levels and the positive impact from lower market interest rates more than offset weaker residual values and higher credit losses. For the quarter, Insurance Operations posted higher earnings as increases in underwriting income more than offset lower capital gains. Mortgage Operations were down slightly year-over-year but still achieved the second highest quarterly profit as strong new origination volumes kept pace with the high refinancing activity. HUGHES Calendar-year losses at Hughes totaled $525 million for 2001, compared with $303 million in the prior year. Hughes lost $131 million in the fourth quarter of 2001, compared with a loss of $74 million in the prior-year period, primarily because of the cost of adding DIRECTV subscribers. Hughes revenues were up 4 percent in the fourth quarter of 2001. Total DIRECTV subscriptions increased to 12.3 million, with approximately 518,000 more subscribers than in the third quarter of 2001, an increase of 4.4 percent. Total subscriptions were up 1.5 million from year-end-2000 levels. PROFIT SHARING, INCENTIVE COMPENSATION Based on GM's financial results in 2001, there will be no profit-sharing payments to hourly workers in the United States. In addition, there will be no annual incentive awards for GM executives, or enhanced variable pay for eligible U.S. and Canadian salaried employees. - 4 - LOOKING AHEAD GM has forecast total U.S. industry vehicle sales to be in the range of 15.0 million to 15.5 million units, and industry sales in Europe of approximately 18.5 million units. Sales in the Latin America/Africa/Mid-East and Asia-Pacific regions are expected to be relatively flat compared with 2001. U.S. dealer inventories are lean at less than 1 million units, and first-quarter North American production is expected to increase 7 percent over the first quarter of 2001. Net price retention in the first quarter is expected to be consistent with the prior guidance for the calendar year at approximately negative 1 percent. Based on these factors and considering the high-degree of economic uncertainty, GM's earnings target for the 2002 calendar year, excluding Hughes, remains at $3.00 per share, and first-quarter earnings are now expected to be approximately $1.00 per share. Including Hughes, the targets are approximately $2.60 per share for the calendar year, and $0.90 per share for the first quarter. # # # In this press release and related comments by General Motors management, our use of the words "outlook," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "forecast," "project," "likely," "objective," "plan," "designed," "goal" and similar expressions is intended to identify forward looking statements. While these statements represent our current judgment on what the future may hold, and we believe these judgments are reasonable, actual results may differ materially due to numerous important factors that are described in GM's most recent report on SEC Form 10-K (at page II-10,11) which may be revised or supplemented in subsequent reports on SEC Forms 10-Q and 8-K. Such factors include, among others, the following: changes in economic conditions, currency exchange rates or political stability; shortages of fuel, labor strikes or work stoppages; market acceptance of the corporation's new products; significant changes in the competitive environment; changes in laws, regulations and tax rates; and the ability of the corporation to achieve reductions in cost and employment levels to realize production efficiencies and implement capital expenditures at levels and times planned by management. - 5 - General Motors Corporation List of Special Items - After Tax (dollars in millions) Year to Date 2001 ---------------------------------------- Other GMNA GME GMLAAM GMAP Hughes ACO ---- --- ------ ---- ------ ----- Reported Net Income (Loss) $1,270 $(765) $(81) $(57) $(618) $(916) Ste.

- 20 - Hughes Reports Fourth Quarter 2001 Financial Results Strong DIRECTV U.S. Subscriber Growth Beats Expectations El Segundo, Calif., January 15, 2002 -- Hughes Electronics Corporation, the world's leading provider of digital television entertainment, broadband services, satellite-based private business networks, and global video and data broadcasting, today reported fourth quarter 2001 revenues increased 10.8% to $2,280.6 million, compared with $2,059.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2000. EBITDA(1) for the quarter was $118.2 million and EBITDA margin(1) was 5.2%, compared with the fourth quarter of 2000 EBITDA of $153.8 million and EBITDA margin of 7.5%. "I am pleased to report that in the fourth quarter we met or exceeded all of our key financial commitments while making excellent progress toward our goal of improving operational performance," said Jack A. Shaw, HUGHES' president and chief executive officer. "Our DIRECTV U.S. business substantially exceeded expectations by adding 405,000 net new subscribers in the quarter. Additionally, we had solid revenue growth in the quarter driven by continued strong demand for DIRECTV(R) services in both the United States and Latin America, as well as increased sales of DIRECTV receivers and DIRECWAY systems at Hughes Network Systems." Shaw continued, "EBITDA increased in each of our key businesses driven by operational improvements including aggressive cost reductions, a reduced workforce and lower customer churn at our DIRECTV businesses. These improvements were partially offset by the losses from our new DIRECTV DSL(TM) service, which were not included in our 2000 results, and a $29 million charge at DIRECTV Latin America due to the devaluation of the Argentinean peso." Also impacting the EBITDA change were one-time favorable adjustments in the fourth quarter of 2000 for corporate expenditures primarily related to pension and other employee costs. HUGHES had a fourth quarter 2001 net loss of $132.6 million compared to net income of $1,057.8 million in the same period of 2000. The change was primarily due to the gain on the sale of HUGHES' satellite manufacturing businesses in the fourth quarter of 2000, increased net interest expense, and the lower EBITDA. These reductions were partially offset by a $42 million tax benefit resulting from losses previously booked on HUGHES' investment in Motient Corporation. FULL-YEAR FINANCIAL REVIEW For 2001, revenues increased 13.4% to $8,262.0 million, compared to $7,287.6 million for the same period in 2000. This increase was primarily due to continued subscriber growth at DIRECTV in the United States and Latin America, partially offset by fewer sales and sales-type leases at PanAmSat and lower shipments of DIRECTV receiver systems at Hughes Network Systems. - 21 - EBITDA for 2001 was $389.9 million and EBITDA margin was 4.7%, compared to EBITDA of $594.0 million and EBITDA margin of 8.2% in 2000. The decrease in EBITDA and EBITDA margin was primarily attributable to the higher outright sales and sales-type leases of satellite transponders at PanAmSat in 2000, increased investment in HNS' consumer DIRECWAY business, losses from the new DIRECTV DSL service, as well as one-time severance charges recorded in the third quarter of 2001. These items were partially offset by improved DIRECTV operating performance due to the higher gross profit resulting from the larger subscriber bases in the United States and Latin America, and lower corporate expenses. For 2001, net losses totaled $621.6 million compared to net income of $813.0 million in 2000. The change was primarily due to the sale of HUGHES' satellite manufacturing businesses in 2000, the lower EBITDA and an increase in depreciation and amortization expense in the Direct-To-Home Broadcast segment and at PanAmSat. Segment Financial Review: Fourth Quarter 2001 Direct-To-Home Broadcast Fourth quarter 2001 revenues for the segment increased 12.7% to $1,714.2 million from $1,520.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2000. The segment had negative EBITDA of $5.3 million compared with EBITDA of $16.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2000. United States: As reported last week, DIRECTV added 910,000 gross subscribers in the quarter and after accounting for churn, substantially exceeded expectations by adding 405,000 net subscribers in the quarter. As a result, DIRECTV had 10.7 million subscribers as of December 31, 2001, representing a 13% increase over the 9.5 million customers attained as of December 31, 2000. DIRECTV reported quarterly revenues of $1,518 million, an increase of 12% from last year's fourth quarter revenues of $1,351 million. The increase was primarily due to continued subscriber growth. EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2001 was $63 million compared to EBITDA of $59 million in last year's fourth quarter. This increase was due to the additional gross profit gained from DIRECTV's larger subscriber base, mostly offset by increased investments in its customer service and installation network. DIRECTV DSL: The DIRECTV DSL service was created following HUGHES' April 2001 acquisition of Telocity. As a result, no comparative financial data for DIRECTV DSL is included for 2000. The DIRECTV DSL service had fourth quarter 2001 revenues of $11 million and negative EBITDA of $32 million. Approximately 17,500 net customers were added to the DIRECTV DSL service in the quarter. As of December 31, 2001, DIRECTV DSL had about 91,000 residential broadband customers in the United States compared to about 48,000 customers as of December 31, 2000. Latin America: The DIRECTV service in Latin America added 113,000 net subscribers in the fourth quarter of 2001. The total number of DIRECTV subscribers in Latin America as of December 31, 2001, was approximately 1,610,000 compared to about 1,305,000 as of December 31, 2000, representing an increase of approximately 23%. DIRECTV Latin America generated $186 million in revenues for the quarter compared with $169 million in the fourth quarter of 2000. This 10% increase was primarily due to continued subscriber growth and the impact from the financial consolidation of the Argentinean and Colombian local operating companies following their acquisition in the first half of 2001. - 22 - Excluding a $29 million charge for the recent devaluation of the Argentinean peso, DIRECTV Latin America had negative EBITDA of $7 million in the quarter compared to negative EBITDA of $43 million in the same period of 2000. The improvement was primarily due to the increased gross profit generated from the larger subscriber base, aggressive costs reductions and reduced marketing costs. These improvements were partially offset by losses related to the consolidation of the Argentinean and Colombian local operating companies. Satellite Services PanAmSat, which is 81%-owned by HUGHES, generated fourth quarter 2001 revenues of $203.7 million compared with $202.9 million in the prior year's period. EBITDA for the quarter was $139.3 million and EBITDA margin was 68.4%, compared with fourth quarter 2000 EBITDA of $136.1 million and EBITDA margin of 67.1%. The increase in EBITDA and EBITDA margin was principally due to recently implemented cost reduction programs. As of December 31, 2001, PanAmSat had contracts for satellite services representing future payments (backlog) of over $5.8 billion compared to approximately $6.0 billion at the end of the fourth quarter of 2000. Network Systems Hughes Network Systems (HNS) generated fourth quarter 2001 revenues of $435.7 million versus $389.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2000. The 11.9% increase resulted from increased shipments of DIRECTV receiver systems and higher sales of DIRECWAY(R) systems to both enterprises and consumers. HNS added approximately 14,000 net DIRECWAY residential broadband customers in the quarter, bringing the cumulative total to approximately 101,000 subscribers in North America. Additionally, HNS shipped 814,000 DIRECTV receiver systems in the fourth quarter of 2001 compared to 680,000 units in the same period last year. In the quarter, HNS reported negative EBITDA of $14.1 million compared to negative EBITDA of $34.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2000. The improvement in EBITDA is primarily attributable to higher operating margins on the increased DIRECTV receiver shipments, partially offset by increased investment in the DIRECWAY and SPACEWAY broadband businesses. BALANCE SHEET From December 31, 2000 to December 31, 2001, the company's consolidated cash balance decreased $808.0 million to $700.1 million and total debt increased $1,330.7 million to $2,647.3 million. The major uses of cash were for satellite and capital expenditures, a settlement with the Raytheon Company on a purchase price adjustment related to Raytheon's 1997 merger with Hughes Defense, and the purchase of Telocity.
