"In its Q2 earnings call, Ford reported top- and bottom-line beats with EPS of 37 cents versus expectations of 33 cents, and revenue of $46.94 billion versus $43.21 billion expected. That builds on the back of the company announcing that its saw its best first-quarter U.S. pickup sales in over 20 years while delivering $1 billion in EBIT. However, the company said it expects a $3 billion hit from Trump's tariffs by year's end, with the hopes of offsetting $1 billion of that figure."
"Ford's iconic brand helped to define American mechanical design and business supremacy in the 20th century and continues to remain a major player to this day. Founder Henry Ford created the mass production assembly line manufacturing process, and Ford cars and trucks are sold worldwide. It is the second-largest U.S. auto industry builder after General Motors (NYSE:GM) and sixth largest worldwide, t he Dearborn-headquartered company has remained resilient despite lackluster performance over the past few years."
"But investors are concerned with future stock performance over the next one five and 10 years. While most Wall Street analysts will calculate 12-month forward projections, it's clear that nobody has a consistent crystal ball, and plenty of unforeseen circumstances can render even near-term projections irrelevant. 24/7 Wall St. aims to present some farther-looking insights based on Ford's own numbers, along with business and market development information that may be of help to our readers' own research"
Shares of Ford rose 1.04% over the past month after a 3.70% decline the prior month and are up 20.31% year-to-date, having gained nearly 34% since the April 8 low. The company pays a dividend yielding 5.17% (15 cents per share). Q2 results beat expectations with EPS of $0.37 and revenue of $46.94 billion, alongside strong U.S. pickup sales and $1 billion EBIT, while expecting a $3 billion tariff hit and aiming to offset $1 billion. Ford remains a major automaker—second-largest in the U.S. and sixth worldwide—but future performance faces analyst uncertainty.
