NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of PresentationThe 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 transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

On October 31, 2017, we completed the sale of certain of our European subsidiaries and branches (collectively, our European Operations) to Banque PSA Finance S.A. and BNP Paribas Personal Finance S.A. (BNP Paribas). Our European Operations are presented as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. Refer to Note 12 for additional details regarding our disposal of these operations. Unless otherwise indicated, information in these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements relates to our continuing operations.

The condensed 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, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 6, 2018 (2017 Form 10–K). Except as otherwise specified, dollar amounts presented within tables are stated in millions.

The condensed consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2018, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, 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, 2017 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, 2018, we adopted ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” as amended, as incorporated into Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, on a modified retrospective basis by recognizing a cumulative effect adjustment of $33 million as an increase to the opening balance of retained earnings. Under the new standard, commission revenue and expenses related to certain retail finance receivables that were previously recognized as earned or incurred ratably over the term of the related receivables will now be recognized in full at the origination of the receivables.

Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2018-02, "Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income". ASU 2018-02 provides the option to reclassify stranded tax effects related to the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the Tax Act) in accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The cumulative effect of the adjustments to the opening balance of retained earnings for the adopted standard was insignificant.

Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities", on a modified retrospective basis, which is intended to facilitate financial reporting that more closely reflects risk management activities and simplifies the application of hedge accounting. Changes to the new guidance include expanded disclosures regarding the types of risk management strategies eligible for hedge accounting, simplifying the documentation and effectiveness assessment requirements, changing how ineffectiveness is measured, and changing the presentation and disclosure requirements for hedge accounting activities. The cumulative effect of the adjustments to the opening balance of retained earnings for the adopted standard was insignificant.

The following change to our derivative accounting policy became effective upon adoption of ASU 2017-12:

Certain interest rate swap and foreign currency swap agreements have been designated as cash flow hedges. The risk being hedged is the foreign currency and interest rate risk related to forecasted transactions. If the contract has been designated as a cash flow hedge, the change in the fair value of the cash flow hedge is deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss and is recognized in interest, operating and other expenses along with the earnings effect of the hedged item when the hedged item affects earnings.

4

GENERAL MOTORS FINANCIAL COMPANY, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

Changes in the fair value of amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recorded currently in earnings and are presented in the same income statement line as the earnings effect of the hedged item.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In February 2016 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases", which requires us, as the lessee, to recognize most leases on the balance sheet, thereby resulting in the recognition of the right to use assets and lease obligations for those leases currently classified as operating leases. The accounting for leases where we are the lessor remains largely unchanged. We are continuing to assess the impact of ASU 2016-02 and refine our processes to permit adoption on January 1, 2019. We plan to elect the optional transition method as well as the package of practical expedients upon adoption. We expect the primary impact to our consolidated financial position upon adoption will be the recognition, on a discounted basis, of our minimum commitments under noncancelable operating leases on our consolidated balance sheets resulting in the recording of right of use assets and lease obligations. Our minimum commitments under noncancelable operating leases are not significantly different than those disclosed in our 2017 Form 10-K.

In June 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments", which requires entities to use a new impairment model based on current expected credit losses (CECL) rather than incurred losses. We plan to adopt 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 completing a cross-functional implementation project to adjust 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, 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 outstanding at the time of the adoption.

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 certain interest payments on commercial loans. The balance in subvention receivable increased from December 31, 2017 due to a re-timing of cash payments from GM.

We purchase certain program vehicles from GM subsidiaries. We simultaneously lease these vehicles to those subsidiaries for use primarily in their ride-sharing arrangements. We account for these leases as direct-financing leases, 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 nine months ended September 30, 2018, we purchased $371 million of these receivables from GM.

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 $1.1 billion for both the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and $2.8 billion and $3.3 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

(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.

On April 18, 2018, GM amended and restated its revolving credit facilities, consisting of a three-year, $4.0 billion facility and a five-year, $10.5 billion facility, and added a 364-day, $2.0 billion facility (the GM Revolving 364-Day Credit Facility). Also on April 18, 2018, we and GM amended the Support Agreement to, among other things, allow for irrevocable and exclusive access by us of no less than $2.0 billion of the GM Revolving 364-Day Credit Facility to support our liquidity. At September 30, 2018, we had no amounts borrowed under these 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 September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there are no related party taxes payable to GM.

On October 26, 2018, our Board of Directors declared a $375 million dividend on our common stock, which was paid to General Motors Holdings LLC on October 30, 2018.

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 use proprietary scoring systems in the underwriting process that measure the credit quality of the receivables using several factors, such as credit bureau information, consumer credit risk scores (e.g. FICO score or its equivalent), and contract characteristics. We also consider other factors, such as employment history, financial stability and capacity to pay. A summary of the credit risk profile by FICO or equivalent scores, determined at origination, of the retail finance receivables is as follows:

	September 30, 2018				December 31, 2017
	Amount		Percent		Amount		Percent
Prime - FICO Score 680 and greater	$	21,765	57.5	%	$	16,892	51.5	%

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

In addition, 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.

	September 30, 2018				September 30, 2017
	Amount		Percent of Contractual Amount Due		Amount		Percent of Contractual Amount Due
31 - 60 days	$	1,302	3.4	%	$	1,176	3.6	%

At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the accrual of finance charge income had been suspended on retail finance receivables with contractual amounts due of $847 million and $778 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:

	September 30, 2018			December 31, 2017
Outstanding recorded investment	$	2,308		$	2,228

Commercial Finance Receivables

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. The following table summarizes the credit risk profile by dealer risk rating of commercial finance receivables:

			September 30, 2018				December 31, 2017
			Amount		Percent		Amount		Percent
Group I	-	Dealers with superior financial metrics	$	2,109	19.0	%	$	1,915	18.6	%

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 nine months ended September 30, 2018, we entered into new credit facilities or renewed credit facilities with a total net additional borrowing capacity of $345 million, and we issued $16.3 billion in aggregate principal amount of securitization notes payable with an initial weighted average interest rate of 2.89% and legal final maturity dates ranging from 2022 to 2026.

Unsecured DebtDuring the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we issued $7.2 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior notes with an initial weighted average interest rate of 3.17% and maturity dates ranging from 2020 to 2028.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we launched an unsecured commercial paper notes program in the U.S. At September 30, 2018, the principal amount outstanding of our commercial paper in the U.S. was $1.5 billion.

General Motors Financial Company, Inc. is the sole guarantor of its subsidiaries' unsecured debt obligations for which a guarantee is provided.

Compliance with Debt CovenantsSeveral 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 September 30, 2018, we were in compliance with these debt covenants.

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, liquidity, and credit 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:

	September 30, 2018						December 31, 2017

_________________

(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 derivatives contracts through AmeriCredit Financial Services, Inc. (AFSI); however our SPEs may also be parties to derivative transactions. Agreements between AFSI and its derivative counterparties include rights of setoff for positions with offsetting values or for collateral held or posted. At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the fair value of assets and liabilities available for offset was $459 million and $284 million. At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we held $55 million and $25 million and posted $718 million and $299 million of collateral available for netting.

As of September 30, 2018, the following amounts were recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet related to items designated and qualifying as hedged items in fair value hedging relationships:

Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies

Guarantees of Indebtedness At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we guaranteed approximately $1.2 billion and $2.0 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 ProceedingsWe 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.

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 September 30, 2018, we estimated our reasonably possible legal exposure for unfavorable outcomes is up to $70 million, and have accrued $17 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 MattersWe 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 $13 millionas ofSeptember 30, 2018.

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 and ninemonths endedSeptember 30, 2018, income tax expense of $57 million and $225 million primarily resulted from tax expense attributable to entities included in our effective tax rate calculation. During the three and ninemonths endedSeptember 30, 2017, income tax expense of $124 million and $260 million primarily resulted from tax expense attributable to entities included in our effective tax rate calculation.

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.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Act was signed into law. The Tax Act changed many aspects of U.S. corporate income taxation, including the reduction of the corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, implementation of a territorial tax system and imposition of a tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries. At December 31, 2017, we had not completed our accounting for the tax effects of enactment of the Tax Act; however, we made a reasonable estimate of the effects on our existing deferred tax balances and the one-time transition tax. In the three months ended September 30, 2018, we filed our 2017 U.S. federal income tax return and updated our 2017 estimated tax benefit from $240 million to $286 million, primarily related to the remeasurement of transition tax as a result of proposed regulations issued in August 2018 and associated impacts to our deferred tax asset carryforwards.We will continue to assess our provision for income taxes as future guidance is issued, but do not currently anticipate significant revisions will be necessary. Any such revisions will be treated in accordance with the measurement period guidance outlined in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118.

Note 14. 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 $7.5 billion and $7.8 billion at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended September 30, 2018 compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2017

Average Earning Assets	Three Months Ended September 30,				2018 vs. 2017 Change
	2018		2017		Amount			Percentage
Average retail finance receivables	$	36,809	$	31,796	$	5,013		15.8	%
Average commercial finance receivables	10,619		9,617		1,002			10.4	%
Average finance receivables	47,428		41,413		6,015			14.5	%
Average leased vehicles, net	44,110		40,789		3,321			8.1	%
Average earning assets	$	91,538	$	82,202	$	9,336		11.4	%
Retail finance receivables purchased	$	6,668	$	4,686	$	1,982		42.3	%
Leased vehicles purchased	$	5,432	$	6,557	$	(1,125	)	(17.2	)%

Average retail finance receivables increased due to the volume of new loan originations in excess of principal collections and payoffs. Average commercial finance receivables increased due primarily to an increase in our GM-franchised dealer commercial lending relationships. Average leased vehicles, net continued to increase as the volume of leases originated exceeded the depreciation and termination of leases. Our penetration of GM's retail sales in North America increased to 47% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 from 34% for the corresponding period in 2017, primarily due to further alignment with GM and greater dealer engagement. Leased vehicles purchased decreased primarily as a result of a change in GM's retail sales mix.

Revenue	Three Months Ended September 30,						2018 vs. 2017 Change
	2018			2017			Amount		Percentage
Finance charge income
Retail finance receivables	$	775		$	724		$	51	7.0	%
Commercial finance receivables	$	142		$	113		$	29	25.7	%
Leased vehicle income	$	2,501		$	2,244		$	257	11.5	%
Other income	$	100		$	80		$	20	25.0	%
Equity income	$	44		$	41		$	3	7.3	%
Effective yield - retail finance receivables	8.4		%	9.0		%
Effective yield - commercial finance receivables	5.3		%	4.7		%

Finance charge income on retail finance receivables increased due to growth in the portfolio, partially offset by a decrease in effective yield. The effective yield on our retail finance receivables decreased due primarily to increased lending to borrowers with prime credit. The effective yield represents finance charges and fees recorded in earnings during the period as a percentage of average retail finance receivables. The effective yield, as a percentage of average retail finance receivables, is higher than the contractual rates of our auto finance contracts primarily because the effective yield includes, in addition to the contractual rates and fees, the impact of rate subvention provided by GM.

19

GENERAL MOTORS FINANCIAL COMPANY, INC.

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.

The increase in leased vehicle income reflects the growth of the leased asset portfolio.

The increase in other income is primarily due to an increase in investment income due to rising benchmark interest rates.

Costs and Expenses	Three Months Ended September 30,						2018 vs. 2017 Change
	2018			2017			Amount			Percentage
Operating expenses	$	369		$	346		$	23		6.6	%
Leased vehicle expenses	$	1,677		$	1,670		$	7		0.4	%
Provision for loan losses	$	180		$	204		$	(24	)	(11.8	)%
Interest expense	$	838		$	672		$	166		24.7	%
Average debt outstanding	$	85,591		$	78,953		$	6,638		8.4	%
Effective rate of interest on debt	3.9		%	3.4		%

Operating Expenses The increase in operating expenses relates to the growth in earning assets and investments to support origination and servicing capabilities in the U.S. Operating expenses as an annualized percentage of average earning assets decreased to 1.6% from 1.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017, due primarily to efficiency gains achieved through higher earning asset levels.

Leased Vehicle Expenses Leased vehicle expenses, which are primarily comprised of depreciation of leased vehicles, increased due to the growth of the leased asset portfolio, offset by increased gains on sales of vehicles under terminated leases.

Provision for Loan Losses As an annualized percentage of average retail finance receivables, the provision for retail loan losses decreased to 1.9% for the threemonths endedSeptember 30, 2018 from 2.5% for the threemonths endedSeptember 30, 2017, due primarily to a shift in the credit mix of the portfolio to a larger percentage of prime loans as well as better than forecasted recovery rates on repossessed vehicles. The provision for commercial loan losses was insignificant for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

Interest Expense Interest expense increased due primarily to an increase in the average debt outstanding resulting from growth in the loan and lease portfolios as well as rising benchmark interest rates.

Taxes Our consolidated effective income tax rate decreased to 12.6% of income before income taxes and equity income for the threemonths endedSeptember 30, 2018 from 46.1% for the threemonths endedSeptember 30, 2017. The decrease in the effective income tax rate is due primarily to a favorable impact from the U.S. tax reform.

Other Comprehensive Income

Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment Foreign currency translation adjustments included in other comprehensive (loss) income were $(35) million and $120 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. 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, particularly the Brazilian Real and the Chinese Yuan Renminbi.

The increase in leased vehicle income reflects the growth of the leased asset portfolio.

The increase in other income is due to (i) a $45 million increase in investment income due to rising benchmark interest rates, (ii) a $30 million increase in insurance revenue primarily due to a change in the timing of the recognition of commissions and (iii) $14 million related to the administration of a vehicle purchase program, which is substantially offset in other operating expenses.

The loss confirmation period represents the average amount of time between when a loss event first occurs to when the receivable is charged off. The provision for commercial loan losses was insignificant for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

Interest Expense Interest expense increased due primarily to an increase in the average debt outstanding resulting from growth in the loan and lease portfolios as well as rising benchmark interest rates.

Taxes Our consolidated effective income tax rate decreased to 16.8% of income before income taxes and equity income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from 33.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

(a) Average amount of outstanding contracts consists of retail finance receivables, net of fees, divided by number of outstanding contracts.

At September 30, 2018, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of retail finance receivables, net of fees, decreased from the level at December 31, 2017 due primarily to a decrease in the loss confirmation period as well as an increase in our recovery rate forecast on repossessed vehicles. The loss confirmation period change resulted from a shift in the credit mix of the portfolio to a larger percentage of prime loans. The loss confirmation period represents the average amount of time between when a loss event first occurs to when the receivable is charged off. The recovery rate forecast change reflects stronger than expected wholesale auction values for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

TDRs Refer to Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of TDRs.

Net Charge-offs The following table presents charge-off data with respect to our retail finance receivables portfolio:

	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,

GENERAL MOTORS FINANCIAL COMPANY, INC.

Leased VehiclesAt September 30, 2018 and 2017, 98.8% and 99.1% of our operating leases were current with respect to payment status.

The following table summarizes the estimated residual value and the number of units included in leased vehicles, net by vehicle type (units in thousands):

	September 30, 2018					December 31, 2017
	Residual Value		Units	Percentage of Units		Residual Value		Units	Percentage of Units
Cars	$	5,119	399	23.3	%	$	5,701	450	27.2	%

Total	$	31,481	1,710	100.0	%	$	30,406	1,652	100.0	%

Used vehicle prices have held at similar levels through September 30, 2018 compared to 2017. We anticipate seasonal weakness in used vehicle prices for the three months ending December 31, 2018, and expect a decrease between 4% and 5% in 2019 compared to 2018, due primarily to continued increases in the industry supply of used vehicles.

The following table summarizes additional information for operating leases (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2018		2017		2018		2017
Operating leases originated	141		174		450		530
Operating leases terminated	130		98		393		242
Operating lease vehicles returned(a)	83		68		269		163
Return rate(b)	64	%	69	%	68	%	67	%

________________ 

(a) Represents the number of vehicles returned to us for remarketing.

(b) Calculated as the number of operating leases returned divided by the number of operating leases terminated.

Operating leases terminated and operating lease vehicles returned increased due to the growth and 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

GeneralOur primary sources of cash are finance charge income, leasing income and proceeds from the sale of terminated leased vehicles, servicing fees, 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, operating expenses and interest costs.

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.

Cash Flow During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, net cash provided by operating activities increased due primarily to an increase in leased vehicle income, partially offset by increased interest expense and increased operating expenses.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, net cash used in investing activities decreased due to an increase in proceeds received on terminated leases of $3.4 billion, increased collections and recoveries on retail finance receivables of $2.6 billion, a decrease in purchases of leased vehicles of $1.8 billion and a decrease in net fundings of commercial finance receivables of $0.7 billion, partially offset by an increase in purchases of retail finance receivables of $2.5 billion.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, net cash provided by financing activities decreased due primarily to a decrease in borrowings, net of repayments, of $7.2 billion and a decrease in the issuance of preferred stock of $0.5 billion.

_________________

(a) Includes $407 million and $656 million in unrestricted cash outside of the U.S. at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. This cash is considered to be indefinitely invested based on specific plans for reinvestment of these earnings.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, available liquidity increased due primarily to an increase in receivables eligible to be pledged and a decrease in advances outstanding on secured revolving credit facilities. In addition, we added $2.0 billion in borrowing capacity on the GM Revolving 364-Day Credit Facility as described below.

Our Support Agreement with GM 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 2018, GM amended and restated its revolving credit facilities, consisting of a three-year, $4.0 billion facility and a five-year, $10.5 billion facility, and added a 364-day, $2.0 billion facility. We have access to the entire $16.5 billion, subject to available capacity, with irrevocable and exclusive access to no less than $2.0 billion of the GM Revolving 364-Day Credit Facility to support our liquidity. At September 30, 2018, we had no borrowings outstanding under any of these facilities.

Credit FacilitiesIn the normal course of business, in addition to using our available cash, we utilize borrowings under our credit facilities, which may be secured and/or structured as securitizations, or may be unsecured, and we repay these borrowings as appropriate under our liquidity management strategy.

At September 30, 2018, credit facilities consist of the following:

Facility Type	Facility Amount		Advances Outstanding
Revolving retail asset-secured facilities(a)	$	22,158	$	2,051
Revolving commercial asset-secured facilities(b)	3,987		276

Securitization Notes PayableWe periodically finance our retail and commercial finance receivables and leases through public and private term securitization transactions, where the securitization markets are sufficiently developed. A summary of securitization notes payable is as follows:

Year of Transaction	Maturity Date (a)			Original Note Issuance (b)		Note Balance At September 30, 2018
2014	August 2021	-	March 2022	$	4,100	$	546
2015	May 2020	-	December 2023	$	5,797	1,155
2016	May 2019	-	September 2024	$	15,405	5,682
2017	June 2019	-	May 2025	$	22,486	15,331
2018	March 2022	-	April 2026	$	16,426	14,752
Total active securitizations						37,466
Debt issuance costs						(71		)
Total						$	37,395

_________________ 

(a) Maturity dates represent legal final maturity of issued notes. The notes are expected to be paid based on amortization of the finance receivables and leases pledged.

(b) At historical foreign currency exchange rates at the time of issuance.

Our securitizations utilize SPEs which are also VIEs that meet the requirements to be consolidated in our financial statements. Refer to Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

Unsecured Debt We periodically access the unsecured debt capital markets through the issuance of senior unsecured notes. At September 30, 2018, the aggregate principal amount of our outstanding unsecured senior notes was $41.9 billion.

We issue other unsecured debt through commercial paper offerings and other bank and non-bank funding sources. At September 30, 2018, we had $3.5 billion of this type of unsecured debt outstanding.

Support Agreement At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, our earning assets leverage ratio calculated in accordance with the terms of the Support Agreement was 8.56x and 9.49x, and the applicable leverage ratio threshold was 11.50x. The earning assets leverage ratio decreased during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 due to growth in earnings and the issuance of preferred stock.

Dividends on Common Stock In consideration of our level of pre-tax earnings, our increasing penetration of GM retail sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and our decreased leverage ratio at September 30, 2018, our Board of Directors declared a $375 million dividend on our common stock on October 26, 2018. The dividend was paid to General Motors Holdings LLC on October 30, 2018. Following payment of the dividend, our leverage ratio remained below the applicable threshold. Future dividends are payable at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on a number of factors including, but not limited to, business and economic conditions, our financial condition, earnings, liquidity requirements and leverage ratio.

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 2017 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;

• 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.;

• 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 data or our proprietary information and manage risks related to security breaches and other disruptions to our networks and systems; 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.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of PresentationThe 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 transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

On October 31, 2017, we completed the sale of certain of our European subsidiaries and branches (collectively, our European Operations) to Banque PSA Finance S.A. and BNP Paribas Personal Finance S.A. (BNP Paribas). Our European Operations are presented as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. Refer to Note 12 for additional details regarding our disposal of these operations. Unless otherwise indicated, information in these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements relates to our continuing operations.

The condensed 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, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 6, 2018 (2017 Form 10–K). Except as otherwise specified, dollar amounts presented within tables are stated in millions.

The condensed consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2018, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, 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, 2017 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, 2018, we adopted ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” as amended, as incorporated into Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, on a modified retrospective basis by recognizing a cumulative effect adjustment of $33 million as an increase to the opening balance of retained earnings. Under the new standard, commission revenue and expenses related to certain retail finance receivables that were previously recognized as earned or incurred ratably over the term of the related receivables will now be recognized in full at the origination of the receivables.

Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2018-02, "Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income". ASU 2018-02 provides the option to reclassify stranded tax effects related to the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the Tax Act) in accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The cumulative effect of the adjustments to the opening balance of retained earnings for the adopted standard was insignificant.

Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities", on a modified retrospective basis, which is intended to facilitate financial reporting that more closely reflects risk management activities and simplifies the application of hedge accounting. Changes to the new guidance include expanded disclosures regarding the types of risk management strategies eligible for hedge accounting, simplifying the documentation and effectiveness assessment requirements, changing how ineffectiveness is measured, and changing the presentation and disclosure requirements for hedge accounting activities. The cumulative effect of the adjustments to the opening balance of retained earnings for the adopted standard was insignificant.

The following change to our derivative accounting policy became effective upon adoption of ASU 2017-12:

Certain interest rate swap and foreign currency swap agreements have been designated as cash flow hedges. The risk being hedged is the foreign currency and interest rate risk related to forecasted transactions. If the contract has been designated as a cash flow hedge, the change in the fair value of the cash flow hedge is deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss and is recognized in interest, operating and other expenses along with the earnings effect of the hedged item when the hedged item affects earnings. Changes in the fair value of amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recorded currently in earnings and are presented in the same income statement line as the earnings effect of the hedged item.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In February 2016 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases", which requires us, as the lessee, to recognize most leases on the balance sheet, thereby resulting in the recognition of the right to use assets and lease obligations for those leases currently classified as operating leases. The accounting for leases where we are the lessor remains largely unchanged. We are continuing to assess the impact of ASU 2016-02 and refine our processes to permit adoption on January 1, 2019. We plan to elect the optional transition method as well as the package of practical expedients upon adoption. We expect the primary impact to our consolidated financial position upon adoption will be the recognition, on a discounted basis, of our minimum commitments under noncancelable operating leases on our consolidated balance sheets resulting in the recording of right of use assets and lease obligations. Our minimum commitments under noncancelable operating leases are not significantly different than those disclosed in our 2017 Form 10-K.

In June 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments", which requires entities to use a new impairment model based on current expected credit losses (CECL) rather than incurred losses. We plan to adopt 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 completing a cross-functional implementation project to adjust 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, 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 outstanding at the time of the adoption.

Related Party Transactions

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 certain interest payments on commercial loans. The balance in subvention receivable increased from December 31, 2017 due to a re-timing of cash payments from GM.

We purchase certain program vehicles from GM subsidiaries. We simultaneously lease these vehicles to those subsidiaries for use primarily in their ride-sharing arrangements. We account for these leases as direct-financing leases, 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 nine months ended September 30, 2018, we purchased $371 million of these receivables from GM.

We have related party payables due to GM, primarily for commercial finance receivables originated but not yet funded.

The following tables present related party transactions:

_________________

(a) Included in finance receivables, net.

(b) Included in related party receivables. We received subvention payments from GM of $1.1 billion for both the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and $2.8 billion and $3.3 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

(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.

On April 18, 2018, GM amended and restated its revolving credit facilities, consisting of a three-year, $4.0 billion facility and a five-year, $10.5 billion facility, and added a 364-day, $2.0 billion facility (the GM Revolving 364-Day Credit Facility). Also on April 18, 2018, we and GM amended the Support Agreement to, among other things, allow for irrevocable and exclusive access by us of no less than $2.0 billion of the GM Revolving 364-Day Credit Facility to support our liquidity. At September 30, 2018, we had no amounts borrowed under these 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 September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there are no related party taxes payable to GM.

On October 26, 2018, our Board of Directors declared a $375 million dividend on our common stock, which was paid to General Motors Holdings LLC on October 30, 2018.

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 use proprietary scoring systems in the underwriting process that measure the credit quality of the receivables using several factors, such as credit bureau information, consumer credit risk scores (e.g. FICO score or its equivalent), and contract characteristics. We also consider other factors, such as employment history, financial stability and capacity to pay. A summary of the credit risk profile by FICO or equivalent scores, determined at origination, of the retail finance receivables is as follows:

	September 30, 2018				December 31, 2017
	Amount		Percent		Amount		Percent
Prime - FICO Score 680 and greater	$	21,765	57.5	%	$	16,892	51.5	%
Near-prime - FICO Score 620 to 679	5,879		15.5		5,226		15.9
Sub-prime - FICO Score less than 620	10,231		27.0		10,684		32.6
Balance at end of period	$	37,875	100.0	%	$	32,802	100.0	%

In addition, 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.

	September 30, 2018				September 30, 2017
	Amount		Percent of Contractual Amount Due		Amount		Percent of Contractual Amount Due
31 - 60 days	$	1,302	3.4	%	$	1,176	3.6	%
Greater than 60 days	498		1.3		521		1.6
Total finance receivables more than 30 days delinquent	1,800		4.7		1,697		5.2
In repossession	53		0.2		55		0.2
Total finance receivables more than 30 days delinquent or in repossession	$	1,853	4.9	%	$	1,752	5.4	%

At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the accrual of finance charge income had been suspended on retail finance receivables with contractual amounts due of $847 million and $778 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:

	September 30, 2018			December 31, 2017
Outstanding recorded investment	$	2,308		$	2,228
Less: allowance for loan losses	(317		)	(328		)
Outstanding recorded investment, net of allowance	$	1,991		$	1,900
Unpaid principal balance	$	2,341		$	2,266

Additional information about loans classified as TDRs is presented below:

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2018		2017		2018		2017
Average outstanding recorded investment	$	2,293	$	2,091	$	2,268	$	2,045
Finance charge income recognized	$	59	$	56	$	185	$	173
Number of loans classified as TDRs during the period	17,924		23,015		51,020		56,853
Recorded investment of loans classified as TDRs during the period	$	319	$	407	$	932	$	997

The unpaid principal balances, net of recoveries, of loans that were charged off during the reporting period and were within 12 months of being modified as a TDR were insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

Commercial Finance Receivables

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. The following table summarizes the credit risk profile by dealer risk rating of commercial finance receivables:

			September 30, 2018				December 31, 2017
			Amount		Percent		Amount		Percent
Group I	-	Dealers with superior financial metrics	$	2,109	19.0	%	$	1,915	18.6	%
Group II	-	Dealers with strong financial metrics	3,989		35.9		3,584		34.7
Group III	-	Dealers with fair financial metrics	3,413		30.7		3,424		33.2
Group IV	-	Dealers with weak financial metrics	1,021		9.2		1,048		10.2
Group V	-	Dealers warranting special mention due to elevated risks	466		4.2		260		2.5
Group VI	-	Dealers with loans classified as substandard, doubtful or impaired	107		1.0		81		0.8
Balance at end of period			$	11,105	100.0	%	$	10,312	100.0	%

At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, substantially all of our commercial finance receivables were current with respect to payment status. Commercial finance receivables on non-accrual status were insignificant, and none were classified as TDRs. Activity in the allowance for commercial loan losses was insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

We use the equity method to account for our equity interest in joint ventures. The income of these joint ventures is not consolidated into our financial statements; rather, our proportionate share of the earnings is reflected as equity income.

On August 9, 2018, we made a $51 million capital investment representing a 35% equity interest in the newly-formed joint venture SAIC-GMF Leasing Co. Ltd., which was established to conduct auto leasing operations in China.

We hold a 35% equity interest in SAIC-GMAC Automotive Finance Company Limited (SAIC-GMAC), which conducts auto finance operations in China. The following table presents summarized operating data related to SAIC-GMAC. This data represents that of the entire entity and not our proportionate share:

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 nine months ended September 30, 2018, we entered into new credit facilities or renewed credit facilities with a total net additional borrowing capacity of $345 million, and we issued $16.3 billion in aggregate principal amount of securitization notes payable with an initial weighted average interest rate of 2.89% and legal final maturity dates ranging from 2022 to 2026.

Unsecured DebtDuring the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we issued $7.2 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior notes with an initial weighted average interest rate of 3.17% and maturity dates ranging from 2020 to 2028.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we launched an unsecured commercial paper notes program in the U.S. At September 30, 2018, the principal amount outstanding of our commercial paper in the U.S. was $1.5 billion.

General Motors Financial Company, Inc. is the sole guarantor of its subsidiaries' unsecured debt obligations for which a guarantee is provided.

Compliance with Debt CovenantsSeveral 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 September 30, 2018, we were in compliance with these debt covenants.

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.

Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

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, liquidity, and credit 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:

	September 30, 2018						December 31, 2017

(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 derivatives contracts through AmeriCredit Financial Services, Inc. (AFSI); however our SPEs may also be parties to derivative transactions. Agreements between AFSI and its derivative counterparties include rights of setoff for positions with offsetting values or for collateral held or posted. At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the fair value of assets and liabilities available for offset was $459 million and $284 million. At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we held $55 million and $25 million and posted $718 million and $299 million of collateral available for netting.

As of September 30, 2018, the following amounts were recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet related to items designated and qualifying as hedged items in fair value hedging relationships:

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

Guarantees of Indebtedness At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we guaranteed approximately $1.2 billion and $2.0 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 ProceedingsWe 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.

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 September 30, 2018, we estimated our reasonably possible legal exposure for unfavorable outcomes is up to $70 million, and have accrued $17 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 MattersWe 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 $13 millionas ofSeptember 30, 2018.

On September 24, 2018, we issued 500,000 shares, par value $0.01 per share, of Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B (Series B Preferred Stock), at a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, for net proceeds of approximately $492 million.

Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cash dividend payments when, as and if declared by our Board of Directors (or a duly authorized committee of our Board of Directors). Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock accrue and are payable from September 24, 2018 to, but excluding, September 30, 2028 at a rate of 6.500% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 30 and September 30 of each year, beginning on March 30, 2019. From and including September 30, 2028, holders of the Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive cash dividend payments at a floating rate equal to the then-applicable three-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR plus a spread of 3.436% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears, on March 30, June 30, September 30 and December 30 of each year. Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are cumulative whether or not we have earnings, there are funds legally available for the payment of the dividends or the dividends are authorized or declared.

The Series B Preferred Stock does not have a maturity date. We may, at our option, redeem the shares of Series B Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at any time on or after September 30, 2028, at a price of $1,000 per share of Series B Preferred Stock plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we paid $59 million of dividends to holders of record of our 5.750% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A (Series A Preferred Stock). On October 26, 2018, prior to the declaration of our common stock dividend, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $28.75 per share, $29 million in the aggregate, on our Series A Preferred Stock, payable on March 30, 2019 to holders of record as of March 15, 2019 and declared a dividend of $33.58 per share, $17 million in the aggregate, on our Series B Preferred Stock, payable on March 30, 2019 to holders of record as of March 15, 2019. Accordingly, $46 million have been set aside for the payment of these dividends.

Income Taxes

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 and ninemonths endedSeptember 30, 2018, income tax expense of $57 million and $225 million primarily resulted from tax expense attributable to entities included in our effective tax rate calculation. During the three and ninemonths endedSeptember 30, 2017, income tax expense of $124 million and $260 million primarily resulted from tax expense attributable to entities included in our effective tax rate calculation.

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.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Act was signed into law. The Tax Act changed many aspects of U.S. corporate income taxation, including the reduction of the corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, implementation of a territorial tax system and imposition of a tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries. At December 31, 2017, we had not completed our accounting for the tax effects of enactment of the Tax Act; however, we made a reasonable estimate of the effects on our existing deferred tax balances and the one-time transition tax. In the three months ended September 30, 2018, we filed our 2017 U.S. federal income tax return and updated our 2017 estimated tax benefit from $240 million to $286 million, primarily related to the remeasurement of transition tax as a result of proposed regulations issued in August 2018 and associated impacts to our deferred tax asset carryforwards.We will continue to assess our provision for income taxes as future guidance is issued, but do not currently anticipate significant revisions will be necessary. Any such revisions will be treated in accordance with the measurement period guidance outlined in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118.

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 $7.5 billion and $7.8 billion at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of PresentationThe 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 transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

On October 31, 2017, we completed the sale of certain of our European subsidiaries and branches (collectively, our European Operations) to Banque PSA Finance S.A. and BNP Paribas Personal Finance S.A. (BNP Paribas). Our European Operations are presented as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. Refer to Note 12 for additional details regarding our disposal of these operations. Unless otherwise indicated, information in these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements relates to our continuing operations.

The condensed 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, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 6, 2018 (2017 Form 10–K). Except as otherwise specified, dollar amounts presented within tables are stated in millions.

The condensed consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2018, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, 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, 2017 was derived from audited annual financial statements.

Segment Information

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 and Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” as amended, as incorporated into Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, on a modified retrospective basis by recognizing a cumulative effect adjustment of $33 million as an increase to the opening balance of retained earnings. Under the new standard, commission revenue and expenses related to certain retail finance receivables that were previously recognized as earned or incurred ratably over the term of the related receivables will now be recognized in full at the origination of the receivables.

Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2018-02, "Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income". ASU 2018-02 provides the option to reclassify stranded tax effects related to the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the Tax Act) in accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The cumulative effect of the adjustments to the opening balance of retained earnings for the adopted standard was insignificant.

Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities", on a modified retrospective basis, which is intended to facilitate financial reporting that more closely reflects risk management activities and simplifies the application of hedge accounting. Changes to the new guidance include expanded disclosures regarding the types of risk management strategies eligible for hedge accounting, simplifying the documentation and effectiveness assessment requirements, changing how ineffectiveness is measured, and changing the presentation and disclosure requirements for hedge accounting activities. The cumulative effect of the adjustments to the opening balance of retained earnings for the adopted standard was insignificant.

The following change to our derivative accounting policy became effective upon adoption of ASU 2017-12:

Certain interest rate swap and foreign currency swap agreements have been designated as cash flow hedges. The risk being hedged is the foreign currency and interest rate risk related to forecasted transactions. If the contract has been designated as a cash flow hedge, the change in the fair value of the cash flow hedge is deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss and is recognized in interest, operating and other expenses along with the earnings effect of the hedged item when the hedged item affects earnings. Changes in the fair value of amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recorded currently in earnings and are presented in the same income statement line as the earnings effect of the hedged item.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In February 2016 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases", which requires us, as the lessee, to recognize most leases on the balance sheet, thereby resulting in the recognition of the right to use assets and lease obligations for those leases currently classified as operating leases. The accounting for leases where we are the lessor remains largely unchanged. We are continuing to assess the impact of ASU 2016-02 and refine our processes to permit adoption on January 1, 2019. We plan to elect the optional transition method as well as the package of practical expedients upon adoption. We expect the primary impact to our consolidated financial position upon adoption will be the recognition, on a discounted basis, of our minimum commitments under noncancelable operating leases on our consolidated balance sheets resulting in the recording of right of use assets and lease obligations. Our minimum commitments under noncancelable operating leases are not significantly different than those disclosed in our 2017 Form 10-K.

In June 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments", which requires entities to use a new impairment model based on current expected credit losses (CECL) rather than incurred losses. We plan to adopt 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 completing a cross-functional implementation project to adjust 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, 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 outstanding at the time of the adoption.

(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 derivatives contracts through AmeriCredit Financial Services, Inc. (AFSI); however our SPEs may also be parties to derivative transactions. Agreements between AFSI and its derivative counterparties include rights of setoff for positions with offsetting values or for collateral held or posted.
