Mixed Impact 4 of 5 earnings Written later

General Motors reported a fourth-quarter 2024 net loss attributable to shareholders of $3.0 billion, reduced by more than $5 billion in special charges, including $4 billion of non-cash restructuring and China joint venture impairment charges and $0.5 billion tied to ending funding for the Cruise robotaxi business. Fourth-quarter revenue rose 11.0%, and full-year 2024 net income fell 40.7% to $6.0 billion, while 2025 net income guidance is $11.2 billion to $12.5 billion. For shareholders, strong operating measures are offset by large one-time charges and lower full-year GAAP profit.
