US EditionGM to take $6 billion writedown on EV pullback
GM's $7.1 billion Q4 charges mainly include $6 billion for EV plan cutbacks and $1.1 billion for China JV restructuring amid weakening U.S. EV demand and supplier settlements.
- On Thursday, General Motors said in a filing that it will record special charges for the fourth quarter of last year tied to its EV pullback and China joint venture overhaul, ahead of its Jan. 27 results.
- Facing weakening EV demand, GM reevaluated and took a $1.6 billion charge, with GM CFO Paul Jacobson saying, 'We continue to believe that there is a strong future for electric vehicles.'
- The filing shows $1.1 billion, including $500 million cash, tied to the Chinese joint venture overhaul and $4.2 billion related to suppliers and commercial partners with cash impact.
- The company said the special charges will reduce GAAP net income for the quarter but not affect adjusted results, and investors pushed General Motors shares higher after a 2025 gain of more than 50%.
- In the broader industry context, GM expects to recognize additional 2026 charges related to continued commercial negotiations with suppliers and may incur emissions-credit costs due to proposed greenhouse-gas standards, similar to Ford's multibillion-dollar restructuring charges in December.
