DETROIT – General Motors (NYSE: GM) today announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2009, which predominantly reflect the effects of continued global economic pressures and low auto industry volumes worldwide. Industry sales volume was down 21 percent globally in the first quarter versus the year-ago period, leading to significantly reduced volume and revenue for GM.

“Our first quarter results underscore the importance of executing GM’s revised Viability Plan, which goes further and faster to lower our break-even point,” said Fritz Henderson, president and chief executive officer. “Our Plan is designed to fix the fundamentals of our business by restructuring and deleveraging our balance sheet, enhancing our revenue capability and dramatically reducing costs. It’s focused on taking care of customers every single day, winning with four core brands, and investing in new products and technology, while at the same time accelerating actions to lower our cost structure to return GM to profitability quickly.”

GM posted a reported net loss of $6.0 billion, including special items, or $9.78 per share in the first quarter of 2009. This compares with a reported net loss of $3.3 billion, or $5.80 per share, in the year-ago quarter. Excluding special items, the company reported an adjusted net loss of $5.9 billion, or $9.66 per share, in the first quarter of 2009 compared to an adjusted net loss of $381 million, or $0.67 per share, in the first quarter of 2008.

The reported results for the first quarter of 2009 include special items and charges netting to a loss of $73 million. The special items include GM’s $906 million gain on debt extinguishment and $385 million related to GM’s portion of GMAC Financial Services’ (GMAC) gain associated with the accounting on its debt extinguishment. These items were offset by charges of $116 million for restructuring, a charge of $822 million related to Saab filing for reorganization, and a charge of $291 million in GM North America (GMNA) related to asset impairments. Charges of $135 million were recorded for advances made under the Delphi Advance Agreement. A reserve was recorded to write-off the receivable as it is deemed uncollectable.

GM’s revenue for the first quarter of 2009 was $22.4 billion, down 47 percent from $42.4 billion in the year-ago quarter. The drop in revenue was primarily due to GM’s production volume decline of 903,000 units, or approximately 40 percent, on a global basis year-over-year.


Beginning in the first quarter of 2009 and reflected in this release, GM will report its automotive operations and regional results on an earnings-before-interest-and-taxes (EBIT) basis, with interest expense and income tax reported in the corporate sector.

GM Automotive Operations

GM recorded an adjusted automotive EBIT loss of $3.9 billion ($5.2 billion reported EBIT loss) in the first quarter 2009. The loss compares with adjusted automotive EBIT income of $808 million in the first quarter of 2008 (reported EBIT income of $484 million).

GM’s automotive results in the first quarter of 2009 were driven by a revenue decline in all regions, due in part to a depressed global industry. In addition, GM’s results were impacted by unfavorable foreign currency exchange and mark-to-market commodity hedging versus the year-ago quarter. However, these losses were partially offset by a significant structural cost improvement of $3.1 billion when compared to the first quarter of 2008.

Demonstrating its commitment to product and technology excellence, GM launched several new vehicles in the first quarter, including the fuel-efficient Chevrolet Cruze in China. In North America, GM began production of the reinvented Chevrolet Camaro, which offers 29 miles-per-gallon fuel economy on the highway. The company also launched the Chevrolet Captiva Sport with its new 2.4L engine in Brazil, and introduced the Cadillac CTS-V to the Middle East. The 2009 European Car of the Year, the Opel/Vauxhall Insignia, continued to ramp-up production and in its first full quarter of sales, and surpassed all competitors in the mid-size sedan segment in Europe.

GMNA revenue for the first quarter 2009 was $12.3 billion, down 50 percent compared to $24.5 billion in the year-ago period, mainly attributable to the impact of the U.S. recession on consumer spending. Earnings were affected by substantially lower production volume, down 58 percent year-over-year, due to the depressed industry, lower market share and adjustments to U.S. dealer inventory. GMNA managed its business in-line with lower industry demand by reducing U.S. dealer inventories by 105,000 units within the first quarter of 2009, from 872,000 units down to 767,000 units. GMNA’s losses were partially offset by a reduction in the accrual for residual support programs for leased vehicles, primarily due to the improvement in residual values. In addition, GMNA significantly reduced engineering and manufacturing cost in the first quarter.

GM Europe (GME) sales volume was up in Germany, as were industry sales, which were aided by aggressive government stimulus for the automotive sector. However, due to sales declines in other countries, GME experienced a 46 percent decline in production volume versus the year-ago quarter, which largely impacted regional earnings. In addition, GME experienced unfavorable foreign currency exchange, driven mainly by the weakening of the British Pound, and unfavorable mark-to-market commodity hedging. Results were partially offset by favorable mix and pricing, due in part to the success of the Opel/Vauxhall Insignia, and improved structural cost performance across the region.

GM sales in China were up 17 percent, driven by strong SAIC-GM-Wuling performance and aggressive government stimulus. This helped fuel overall regional sales and market share increases. However, sales decreased in most countries across the region excluding China, driving down production volumes, which impacted GMAP revenue. In addition, GM Daewoo revenue dropped as export volumes declined significantly across its major export markets.

GM Latin America, Africa and Middle East (GMLAAM) experienced sales increases in Ecuador and Peru in the first quarter, where it set new sales records. At the same time, GMLAAM saw market share increases in Colombia, Ecuador, Chile, Peru, Venezuela, Egypt, Kenya and North Africa. However, consistent with the industry’s downward trend in the region, GMLAAM production volume dropped 24 percent versus the year-ago quarter, which impacted revenue. The region also experienced unfavorable foreign currency exchange primarily related to the depreciation of the Brazilian Real. In addition, special charges related to restructuring were incurred in several countries.

GMAC

On a standalone basis, GMAC reported a net loss of $675 million for the first quarter 2009, down $86 million from the year-ago quarter. GM realized a reported loss of $500 million for the quarter as a result of its equity interest in GMAC. Excluding the impact of the $385 million gain related to GM’s portion of GMAC’s gain associated with the accounting on its debt extinguishment, GM realized an adjusted net loss of $885 million.

GMAC’s results were primarily attributable to continued pressure in mortgage operations, weaker credit performance on both auto and mortgage assets, mark-to-market adjustments, and an original issue discount related to its fourth quarter debt exchange. The losses were partially offset by profitable performance in its insurance business and gains on debt extinguishment transactions.

Cash and Liquidity

Cash and marketable securities totaled $11.6 billion on March 31, 2009, down from $14.2 billion on December 31, 2008.

The change in liquidity reflects negative adjusted operating cash flow of $10.2 billion in the first quarter of 2009, which was partially offset by U.S. TARP funding. Further detail on GM’s current liquidity position and outlook will be disclosed in a Form 10-Q filing with the Securities and Exchange in the coming days.

Reinventing GM

On April 27, 2009, GM announced its revised Viability Plan, which is expected to result in sustainable cash flow and profitability, as well as a stronger balance sheet. The Plan includes faster and deeper acceleration of operational actions, encompassing further rationalization of its U.S. brands and nameplates, dealer consolidation, manufacturing capacity, and hourly employee and labor-cost reductions. GM also expects to implement additional salaried employee and executive reductions. These actions are designed to enable the company to dramatically reduce its U.S. breakeven volume, enabling GM to be profitable at below-trend industry sales volumes.

In addition, GM announced a number of initiatives to restructure and deleverage its balance sheet as an important part of the revised Viability Plan, including an exchange offer to its bondholders aimed at reducing its unsecured debt by at least $24 billion, conditioned upon exchanging at least half of its VEBA obligations (about $10 billion) to GM common stock and the conversion of at least half of GM’s U.S. government debt to GM common stock. GM has not reached agreement with the UAW on the VEBA trust or with the U.S. Treasury on these conditions yet.

“This is a defining moment in the history of General Motors, and we are committed to our Plan, which we believe will lead to a stable and sustainable operating structure with a strong balance sheet,” said Henderson. “Our goal is to fix this business once and for all to position ourselves to win in the long-term. That will be achieved by putting the customer first in all we do, focusing on fewer, stronger brands and developing great products that lead in design, technology, quality and fuel efficiency.”

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains “forward-looking statements.” Such statements are based on the current expectations and assumptions of GM management, and as such involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those now anticipated—both in connection with the proposed exchange offers and consent solicitations, and GM’s business and financial prospects — including (without limitation) those set forth in the Prospectus Documents filed with the SEC as part of GM’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 (as amended and supplemented). To better understand these risks and uncertainties, holders of notes and other readers are encouraged to read carefully the Prospectus Documents (as amended or supplemented), GM’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 which was filed March 5, 2009, and other SEC filings, all of which can be accessed free of charge at the websites of the SEC (www.sec.gov) and GM (at http://www.gm.com/corporate/investor_information).

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release, the accompanying tables and the charts for securities analysts include the following financial measures, which are not prepared in accordance with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States of America (GAAP): (1) adjusted net income; (2) adjusted earnings before interest and income tax; and (3) managerial cash flow. Each of these financial measures is therefore considered a non-GAAP financial measure. This press release and the charts for securities analysts also contain a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most comparable GAAP financial measure. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified in the consolidated statements of operations and related summaries to conform to the current period presentation, primarily due to the adoption of SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51,” which amends ARB No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” and FSP No. APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash Upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement),” which have retrospective application.

In the three months ended March 31, 2009, GM’s financial statements no longer present FIO operations as a separate segment, which resulted in the following changes to the condensed consolidated financial statements: (1) Financial services and insurance revenue were reclassified to Other Revenue; (2) Financial services and insurance expense was reclassified to Other expenses; and (3) separate FIO balance sheet line items are no longer presented. Certain reclassifications were made to the comparable 2008 financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.

Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding GM’s operating results because they exclude amounts that GM management does not consider part of operating results when assessing and measuring the operational and financial performance of the organization. In addition, GM has historically reported similar non-GAAP financial measures and believes that inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures provides consistency and comparability with past earnings releases. GM management believes these measures allow it to readily view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons, benchmark performance among geographic regions and assess whether GM’s plan to return to profitability is on target. Also, GM management uses adjusted net income and adjusted earnings before interest and income taxes for forecasting purposes and in determining future capital investment allocations. Accordingly, GM believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency of supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making.

While GM believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information, there are limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, do not reflect a comprehensive system of accounting and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential differences in the method of calculation between companies. Costs such as the special attrition programs and restructuring charges that are excluded from GM’s non-GAAP financial measures can have a material effect on net earnings. As a result, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, net earnings, cash flow from operations, or other measures of performance or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP. GM compensates for these limitations by using these non-GAAP financial measures as supplements to GAAP financial measures and by providing the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP financial measures. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP financial measures that are included elsewhere in this press release.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Before Interest and Income Taxes

Adjusted net income excludes charges for certain tax related items, gains and losses on the sale of business units and business interests, charges associated with accounting changes, restructuring, plant closure and impairment charges, charges associated with Delphi Corporation (Delphi), special attrition program charges, and other gains and losses which management excludes when assessing the internal performance of the organization.

Adjusted earnings before interest and income taxes begins with adjusted net income and is adjusted to remove any remaining interest and income tax expense or benefit.

Managerial Cash Flow

GM reports non-GAAP managerial operating cash flow in its earnings releases and charts for securities analysts. Management believes that providing managerial operating cash flow furnishes it and investors with useful information by representing the cash flow generated or consumed by its operations, including cash consumed by capital expenditures and equity investments in companies related to GM’s core business and cash generated by sales of operating assets and equity investments in companies related to GM’s core business, before funding non-operating-related obligations including debt maturities, dividends and other non-operating items. Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure to assess its cash flow when evaluating the performance of GM, its business units and its management teams and when making decisions to allocate resources among GM’s business units.

(a) On March 4, 2009 GM entered into an agreement to amend a $1.5 billion U.S. term loan, which expires November 2013. Because the terms of the amended U.S. term loan were substantially different than the original terms, primarily due to the revised borrowing rate, the amendment was accounted for as a debt extinguishment. As a result, GM recorded the amended U.S. term loan at fair value and recorded a gain of $906 million for the extinguishment of the original loan facility.
(b) On February 20, 2009, Saab Automobile AB (Saab) filed for reorganization under a self-managed Swedish court process, which is similar to U.S. Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The reorganization filing resulted in the loss of control necessary for consolidation and therefore GM deconsolidated Saab on February 20, 2009. Charges of $822 million were recorded related to GM’s net investment in, and advances to, Saab and other commitments and obligations, including a commitment to provide up to $150 million of debtor-in-possession financing.
(c) Income of $385 million representing our proportionate share of GMAC’s debt extinguishment.
(d) Charges of $291 million were recorded for impairments as follows: GMNA recorded $263 million charges related to long-lived asset impairments and $28 million related to GM’s equity investment in CAMI Automotive Inc.

Charges of $169 million were recorded for separation programs affecting salaried employees and additional planned capacity actions affecting hourly employees in the United States and Canada.

GME: Charges of $17 million were recorded for separation programs, primarily in Germany.

GMLAAM: Charges of $26 million were recorded for voluntary and involuntary separation programs affecting salaried and hourly employees, primarily in South America and South Africa.

 

(f) Charges of $135 million were recorded for advances made under the Delphi Advance Agreement. A reserve was recorded to write-off the advance as it was deemed uncollectable. No advances were outstanding at December 31, 2008.
