Detroit – general motors is expected to report first-quarter earnings before the bell on Tuesday.
Here’s what Wall Street is expecting, based on a survey of analysts by LSEG.
Earnings per share: Adjusted $2.62; Revenue: $43.68 billion
These results would translate into an approximately 1% decline in sales and a 5.8% decline in adjusted earnings per share compared to the prior year period.
GM’s first quarter 2025 financial results included sales of $44.02 billion, net income attributable to shareholders of $2.78 billion, and adjusted earnings before interest and taxes of $3.49 billion.
Apart from changes in earnings and automakers’ 2026 guidance, investors will also be monitoring the fallout from the Iran war, the impact of tariffs, and additional charges related to automakers’ all-electric vehicle exits.
After announcing a $7.6 billion EV writedown last year, the company said it expects it to be at a lower level than in 2025, although it will incur additional costs.
GM’s 2026 earnings forecast exceeds last year’s forecasts and results. This includes net income attributable to shareholders of $10.3 billion to $11.7 billion. Adjusted earnings before interest and taxes ranged from $13 billion to $15 billion. Annual EPS is between $11 and $13.
