DETROIT â Ford Motor guided to the low end of its previously announced 2024 earnings forecast as it slightly topped Wall Street’s third-quarter expectations.
The Detroit automaker said Monday it now expects adjusted earnings before interest and taxes, or EBIT, of about $10 billion. It had previously guided to between $10 billion and $12 billion. It retained its forecast for adjusted free cash flow of between $7.5 billion and $8.5 billion.
Here’s how the company performed in the third quarter, compared with average estimates compiled by LSEG:
- Earnings per share: 49 cents adj. vs. 47 cents adj. expected
- Automotive revenue: $43.07 billion vs. $41.88 billion expected
The automaker was under pressure after a disappointing second quarter in which unexpected warranty costs caused the company to miss Wall Street’s earnings expectations.
