GM Enters $4.5 Billion Supplier Inventory Funding Program With Procura Auto Parts
General Motors entered a Master IPU Agreement on August 7, 2026, under which it will issue irrevocable payment undertakings to Procura Auto Parts, which funds suppliers that hold critical inventory for GM until it is needed. The program has a maximum outstanding face amount of $4.5 billion and a twelve-month issuance period, and GM will record the IPUs as unsecured debt, which adds to its reported obligations.
Key points
- Maximum aggregate outstanding face amount of IPUs is $4.5 billion, with a twelve-month availability period starting August 7, 2026.
- Interest accrues at SOFR plus 1.55% per annum, plus a ticking fee of 0.25% per annum on the unused portion of the limit.
- Payments are due after inventory is consumed and no later than August 6, 2029; outstanding IPUs may be accelerated after an event of default.
- GM will record each IPU as unsecured debt and exclude payments under the program from Adjusted Automotive Free Cash Flow until the inventory is purchased.
