DETROIT – on Thursday lowered its 2025 financial guidance to include an expected $4 billion to $5 billion impact as a result of President Donald Trump's auto tariffs.

The Detroit automaker said its new guidance includes adjusted earnings before interest and taxes of between $10 billion and $12.5 billion. That compares with its former guidance, which did not take tariffs into account, of $13.7 billion to $15.7 billion.

GM's 2025 guidance also includes net income attributable to stockholders of $8.2 billion to $10.1 billion, down from $11.2 billion to $12.5 billion, and adjusted automotive free cash flow of between $7.5 billion and $10 billion, down from $11 billion to $13 billion. The company did not change its capital spending target of between $10 billion and $11 billion, including its battery joint ventures.

The Detroit automaker also expects to spend $500 million during the second quarter to fix roughly nearly 600,000 SUVs and trucks in the U.S. due to engine issues.

"Importantly, GM's business is growing and fundamentally strong as we adapt to the new trade policy environment, further strengthen our supply base, and drive EV profitability," GM CEO Mary Barra said in a on Thursday.

The guidance takes into account "the positive impact" of the Trump to some tariffs, which include reimbursing automakers for some U.S. parts and reducing the "stacking" of tariffs upon each other for the industry.

GM CFO Paul Jacobson told investors Thursday that the company continues to believe it can of its expected cost increases due to tariffs through "self-help initiatives." The guidance takes those actions into account, but the $4 billion to $5 billion impact this year does not, he said.

GM Tuesday that beat Wall Street's expectations but delayed its investor call and updated guidance details amid expected changes to the auto tariffs.

Barra on Thursday told that the company is working to offset as much of the increased costs from tariffs as possible.

"Absolutely, we can make changes. We've been working on our supply chain since 2019, to be more resilient," Barra said, citing a 27% increase in U.S. sourced parts. "We have a lot of opportunity as we continue to work with our supply base to increase the U.S. content. You'll see more announcements from us now that we actually have this clarity to be able to reinvest in the U.S."

Barra declined to say whether the company would shift production from plants in Mexico to the U.S. She said the company will utilize its current assets. That includes 11 large assembly plants in the U.S. that employ tens of thousands of workers.

"We're going to leverage that footprint that we have because we have the ability to add capacity to many of those plants. So we can do this efficiently, and it's going to allow us to do this more quickly than if we were going to start with a greenfield," Barra said.

Barra declined to say whether GM plans to raise vehicle prices as a result of the tariffs.

Jacobson told investors the automaker expects lower industry sales but for pricing to remain steady for the remainder of the year, providing a slight improvement compared to last year.
