General Motors Company (GM) reported its financial results for the second quarter of 2026, revealing a total net sales and revenue of $48.0 billion, a 1.9% increase from $47.1 billion in the same period last year. The automotive segment contributed $43.8 billion, up from $42.9 billion, while GM Financial generated $4.3 billion, slightly higher than $4.3 billion in the prior year. However, net income attributable to stockholders decreased to $1.3 billion, or $1.44 per share, compared to $1.9 billion, or $1.94 per share, in the second quarter of 2025.

In the first half of 2026, GM's total net sales and revenue reached $91.7 billion, a modest increase from $91.1 billion in the same period of 2025. The automotive segment's revenue was $83.1 billion, up from $82.7 billion, while GM Financial's revenue rose to $8.5 billion from $8.4 billion. Despite the revenue growth, net income attributable to stockholders fell to $3.9 billion, or $4.32 per share, down from $4.7 billion, or $5.35 per share, in the first half of 2025.

Operationally, GM's wholesale vehicle sales totaled 1.9 million units in the first half of 2026, with a market share of 16.7% in the U.S., reflecting a slight decline from 17.3% in the previous year. The company reported a decrease in sales of crossover vehicles, including electric vehicles (EVs), while full-size pickup trucks saw increased demand. GM's international operations faced challenges, particularly in China, where total vehicle sales dropped by 16.6% compared to the previous year.

Strategically, GM has been focusing on its electric vehicle (EV) strategy, which has involved significant restructuring costs. In the first half of 2026, the company recorded additional charges of $3.4 billion related to ongoing commercial negotiations and losses on contractual supply agreements. GM's outlook for the remainder of 2026 anticipates net income attributable to stockholders between $8.4 billion and $9.8 billion, with EBIT-adjusted expected to range from $14.0 billion to $16.0 billion. The company continues to prioritize cost management and operational efficiency while navigating a dynamic market environment influenced by tariffs, regulatory changes, and evolving consumer preferences.
