Basis of Presentation This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2023 Form 10-K.

Forward-looking statements in this MD&A are not guarantees of future performance and may involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Refer to the "Forward-Looking Statements" section of this MD&A and Part 1, Item 1A. Risk Factors of our 2023 Form 10-K for a discussion of these risks and uncertainties. Except for per share amounts or as otherwise specified, dollar amounts presented within tables are stated in millions. Certain columns and rows may not add due to rounding.

Overview Our vision for the future is a world with zero crashes, zero emissions and zero congestion. We will adapt to customer preferences while executing our growth-focused strategy to invest in EVs, hybrids, AVs, software-enabled services and other new business opportunities. To support strong margins and cash flow during this transition, we are strengthening our market position in profitable internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, such as trucks and SUVs. We plan to execute our strategy with a steadfast commitment to good corporate citizenship through more sustainable operations and a leading health and safety culture.

Our financial performance continues to be driven by the strength of our vehicle portfolio including high margin full-size pickup trucks and SUVs, strong consumer demand for our products and the execution of our core business strategy. We remain focused on reducing fixed costs and maintaining pricing discipline. We are monitoring industry pricing pressures, higher interest rates, inflation and consumer demand trends. We continue to prioritize driving down costs and building scale in our EV portfolio to improve profitability. Cruise has also resumed certain on-road operations with a focused and more capital efficient operating plan.

As we continue to assess our performance and the needs of our evolving business, additional restructuring and rationalization actions could be required. These actions could give rise to future asset impairments or other charges, which may have a material impact on our operating results. Refer to the Consolidated Results and regional sections of this MD&A for additional information.

We face continuing market, operating and regulatory challenges in several countries across the globe due to, among other factors, competitive pressures, our product portfolio offerings, heightened emission standards, labor disruptions, foreign exchange volatility, evolving trade policy and political uncertainty. Refer to Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2023 Form 10-K for a discussion of these challenges.

For the year ending December 31, 2024, we expect Net income attributable to stockholders of between $10.0 billion and $11.4 billion, EBIT-adjusted of between $13.0 billion and $15.0 billion, EPS-diluted of between $8.93 and $9.93 and EPS-diluted-adjusted of between $9.50 and $10.50. Refer to the "Non-GAAP Measures" section of this MD&A for additional information.

The following table reconciles expected Net income attributable to stockholders under U.S. GAAP to expected EBIT-adjusted (dollars in billions):

(a)Refer to the reconciliation of Net income attributable to stockholders under U.S. GAAP to EBIT-adjusted within the MD&A for adjustment details. These expected financial results do not include the potential impact of future adjustments related to special items.

(a)Refer to the reconciliation of diluted earnings per common share under U.S. GAAP to EPS-diluted-adjusted within the MD&A for adjustment details. These expected financial results do not include the potential impact of future adjustments related to special items.

GMNA Industry sales in North America were 9.9 million units in the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing an increase of 3.4% compared to the corresponding period in 2023. U.S. industry sales were 8.0 million units in the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing an increase of 1.7% compared to the corresponding period in 2023.

Our total vehicle sales in the U.S., our largest market in North America, were 1.3 million units for market share of 16.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing a decrease of 0.3 percentage points compared to the corresponding period in 2023.

We expect to sustain relatively strong EBIT-adjusted margins in 2024 on the continued strength of our product portfolio, improved EV margins and ongoing fixed cost reduction efforts, partially offset by pricing moderation with increased incentives. While we expect EV margins to improve in 2024, it is possible that we will continue to recognize losses to adjust inventory to net realizable value. Our outlook is dependent on the resiliency of the U.S. economy, continuing improvement of supply chain availability, EV-related cost reduction and overall economic conditions.

GMI Industry sales in China were 11.5 million units in the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing an increase of 2.4% compared to the corresponding period in 2023. Our total vehicle sales in China were 0.8 million units for market share of 7.1% in the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing a decrease of 1.7 percentage points compared to the corresponding period in 2023. Our Automotive China JVs generated an equity loss of $0.2 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2024, driven primarily by a decline in wholesale volumes amid intense competition in a market with significant excess capacity from both new market entrants and established competitors offering vehicles at lower prices. This intense price competition and an increasingly challenging regulatory environment related to emissions, fuel consumption and new energy vehicles continue to negatively impact the profitability of our operations in China. Additionally, independent, Chinese automakers are expanding market share and prioritizing production volumes over profitability, with the ability to produce vehicles at costs well below foreign automakers, including our Automotive China JVs. These factors are impacting our China JVs’ ability to grow vehicle sales in China and our ability to generate sustainable equity income from our China JVs. As a result, we are working closely with our JV partners to restructure our operations in China and we believe we have an increased likelihood of recording future charges, which could be material, if losses continue in the near term.

Outside of China, industry sales were 12.4 million units in the six months ended June

Disclosure Controls and Procedures We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods and accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2024.

PART II

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

SEC regulations require us to disclose certain information about environmental proceedings if a governmental authority is a party to such proceedings and such proceedings involve potential monetary sanctions that we reasonably believe will exceed a stated threshold. Pursuant to the SEC regulations, the Company will use a threshold of $1 million for purposes of determining whether disclosure of any such proceedings is required.

The discussion under Note 13 to our condensed consolidated financial statements is incorporated by reference into this Part II, Item 1.

We face a number of significant risks and uncertainties in connection with our operations. Our business and the results of our operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected by these risk factors. There have been no material changes to the Risk Factors disclosed in our 2023 Form 10-K.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Purchases of Equity Securities The following table summarizes our purchases of common stock in the three months ended June 30, 2024:

(a)Shares purchased include shares delivered by employees or directors to us for the payment of taxes resulting from the issuance of common stock upon the vesting of RSUs relating to compensation plans. Refer to our 2023 Form 10-K for additional details on employee stock incentive plans.

(b)During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we entered into the ASR Agreements to repurchase an aggregate $10.0 billion of common stock, and we received and immediately retired approximately 215 million shares of our common stock (68% of the $10.0 billion aggregate purchase price calculated on the basis of a price of $31.60 per share, the closing share price of our common stock on November 29, 2023). In March 2024, upon the first settlement of the transactions contemplated under the ASR Agreements, we received approximately 4 million additional shares of our common stock, which were immediately retired. There was no settlement under the ASR Agreements in the three months ended June 30, 2024. The final number of shares ultimately to be purchased, and the average price paid per share, will be determined at the final settlement of the ASR Agreements and will be based on the average of the daily volume-weighted average prices of our common stock during the term of the ASR Agreements, less a discount and subject to adjustments pursuant to the terms and conditions of the ASR Agreements. The final settlement of the transactions contemplated under the ASR Agreements in connection with the ASR program is expected to occur no later than the three months ending December 31, 2024.

(c)The weighted-average price paid per share excludes broker commissions.

(d)In November 2023, our Board of Directors increased the capacity under the share repurchase program by $10.0 billion to an aggregate of $11.4 billion and approved the $10.0 billion ASR program. In June 2024, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase authorization to repurchase up to an additional $6.0 billion of our outstanding common stock. At June 30, 2024, we had $6.0 billion in capacity remaining under the share repurchase program, with no expiration date.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, Rory Harvey, Executive Vice President and President, Global Markets, adopted a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" as such term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K, on May 5, 2024, to sell up to 4,145 shares of GM common stock and up to 35,778 shares of GM common stock issuable upon exercise of vested options between August 5, 2024 and April 18, 2025, subject to certain conditions.
