DETROIT, May 7 -- General Motors (NYSE: GM) today announced its financial
results for the first quarter of 2009, which predominantly reflect the
effects of continued global economic pressures and low auto industry volumes
worldwide. Industry sales volume was down 21 percent globally in the first
quarter versus the year-ago period, leading to significantly reduced volume
and revenue for GM.
"Our first quarter results underscore the importance of executing GM's
revised Viability Plan, which goes further and faster to lower our break-even
point," said Fritz Henderson, president and chief executive officer. "Our
Plan is designed to fix the fundamentals of our business by restructuring and
deleveraging our balance sheet, enhancing our revenue capability and
dramatically reducing costs. It's focused on taking care of customers every
single day, winning with four core brands, and investing in new products and
technology, while at the same time accelerating actions to lower our cost
structure to return GM to profitability quickly."
GM posted a reported net loss of $6.0 billion, including special items,
or $9.78 per share in the first quarter of 2009. This compares with a
reported net loss of $3.3 billion, or $5.80 per share, in the year-ago
quarter. Excluding special items, the company reported an adjusted net loss
of $5.9 billion, or $9.66 per share, in the first quarter of 2009 compared to
an adjusted net loss of $381 million, or $0.67 per share, in the first
quarter of 2008.
The reported results for the first quarter of 2009 include special items
and charges netting to a loss of $73 million. The special items include GM's
$906 million gain on debt extinguishment and $385 million related to GM's
portion of GMAC Financial Services' (GMAC) gain associated with the
accounting on its debt extinguishment. These items were offset by charges of
$116 million for restructuring, a charge of $822 million related to Saab
filing for reorganization, and a charge of $291 million in GM North America
(GMNA) related to asset impairments. Charges of $135 million were recorded
for advances made under the Delphi Advance Agreement. A reserve was recorded
to write-off the receivable as it is deemed uncollectable.
GM's revenue for the first quarter of 2009 was $22.4 billion, down 47
percent from $42.4 billion in the year-ago quarter. The drop in revenue was
primarily due to GM's production volume decline of 903,000 units, or
approximately 40 percent, on a global basis year-over-year.
Beginning in the first quarter of 2009 and reflected in this release, GM
will report its automotive operations and regional results on an
earnings-before-interest-and-taxes (EBIT) basis, with interest expense and
income tax reported in the corporate sector.
GM Automotive Operations
GM recorded an adjusted automotive EBIT loss of $3.9 billion ($5.2
billion reported EBIT loss) in the first quarter 2009. The loss compares with
adjusted automotive EBIT income of $808 million in the first quarter of 2008
(reported EBIT income of $484 million).
GM's automotive results in the first quarter of 2009 were driven by a
revenue decline in all regions, due in part to a depressed global industry.
In addition, GM's results were impacted by unfavorable foreign currency
exchange and mark-to-market commodity hedging versus the year-ago quarter.
However, these losses were partially offset by a significant structural cost
improvement of $3.1 billion when compared to the first quarter of 2008.
Demonstrating its commitment to product and technology excellence, GM
launched several new vehicles in the first quarter, including the
fuel-efficient Chevrolet Cruze in China. In North America, GM began
production of the reinvented Chevrolet Camaro, which offers 29
miles-per-gallon fuel economy on the highway. The company also launched the
Chevrolet Captiva Sport with its new 2.4L engine in Brazil, and introduced
the Cadillac CTS-V to the Middle East. The 2009 European Car of the Year, the
Opel/Vauxhall Insignia, continued to ramp-up production and in its first full
quarter of sales, and surpassed all competitors in the mid-size sedan segment
in Europe.
GMNA
First Quarter
2009 2008 '09 O/(U) '08
Revenue (bils.) $12.3 $24.5 $(12.2)
Reported EBIT (bils.) $(3.2) $(.4) $(2.8)
Adjusted EBIT (bils.) $(2.8) $(.2) $(2.6)
GMNA Market Share 17.9% 21.7% (3.8) p.p.
GMNA revenue for the first quarter 2009 was $12.3 billion, down 50
percent compared to $24.5 billion in the year-ago period, mainly attributable
to the impact of the U.S. recession on consumer spending. Earnings were
affected by substantially lower production volume, down 58 percent
year-over-year, due to the depressed industry, lower market share and
adjustments to U.S. dealer inventory. GMNA managed its business in-line with
lower industry demand by reducing U.S. dealer inventories by 105,000 units
within the first quarter of 2009, from 872,000 units down to 767,000 units.
GMNA's losses were partially offset by a reduction in the accrual for
residual support programs for leased vehicles, primarily due to the
improvement in residual values. In addition, GMNA significantly reduced
engineering and manufacturing cost in the first quarter.
GME
First Quarter
2009 2008 '09 O/(U) '08
Revenue (bils.) $5.3 $9.9 $(4.6)
Reported EBIT (bils.) $(2.0) $0.1 $(2.1)
Adjusted EBIT (bils.) $(1.2) $0.2 $(1.4)
GME Market Share 8.9% 9.6% (0.7) p.p
GM Europe (GME) sales volume was up in Germany, as were industry sales,
which were aided by aggressive government stimulus for the automotive sector.
However, due to sales declines in other countries, GME experienced a 46
percent decline in production volume versus the year-ago quarter, which
largely impacted regional earnings. In addition, GME experienced unfavorable
foreign currency exchange, driven mainly by the weakening of the British
Pound, and unfavorable mark-to-market commodity hedging. Results were
partially offset by favorable mix and pricing, due in part to the success of
the Opel/Vauxhall Insignia, and improved structural cost performance across
the region.
GMAP
First Quarter
2009 2008 '09 O/(U) '08
Revenue (bils.) $2.4 $5.3 $(2.9)
Reported EBIT (mils.) $(21) $310 $(331)
Adjusted EBIT (mils.) $(21) $310 $(331)
GMAP Market Share 8.0% 6.9% 1.1 p.p.
GM sales in China were up 17 percent, driven by strong SAIC-GM-Wuling
performance and aggressive government stimulus. This helped fuel overall
regional sales and market share increases. However, sales decreased in most
countries across the region excluding China, driving down production volumes,
which impacted GMAP revenue. In addition, GM Daewoo revenue dropped as export
volumes declined significantly across its major export markets.
GMLAAM
First Quarter
2009 2008 '09 O/(U) '08
Revenue (bils.) $3.4 $4.8 $(1.4)
Reported EBIT (mils.) $16 $500 $(484)
Adjusted EBIT (mils.) $42 $500 $(458)
GMLAAM Market Share 16.9% 17.6% (0.7) p.p.
GM Latin America, Africa and Middle East (GMLAAM) experienced sales
increases in Ecuador and Peru in the first quarter, where it set new sales
records. At the same time, GMLAAM saw market share increases in Colombia,
Ecuador, Chile, Peru, Venezuela, Egypt, Kenya and North Africa. However,
consistent with the industry's downward trend in the region, GMLAAM
production volume dropped 24 percent versus the year-ago quarter, which
impacted revenue. The region also experienced unfavorable foreign currency
exchange primarily related to the depreciation of the Brazilian Real. In
addition, special charges related to restructuring were incurred in several
countries.
GMAC
On a standalone basis, GMAC reported a net loss of $675 million for the
first quarter 2009, down $86 million from the year-ago quarter. GM realized a
reported loss of $500 million for the quarter as a result of its equity
interest in GMAC. Excluding the impact of the $385 million gain related to
GM's portion of GMAC's gain associated with the accounting on its debt
extinguishment, GM realized an adjusted net loss of $885 million.
GMAC's results were primarily attributable to continued pressure in
mortgage operations, weaker credit performance on both auto and mortgage
assets, mark-to-market adjustments, and an original issue discount related to
its fourth quarter debt exchange. The losses were partially offset by
profitable performance in its insurance business and gains on debt
extinguishment transactions.
Cash and Liquidity
Cash and marketable securities totaled $11.6 billion on March 31, 2009,
down from $14.2 billion on December 31, 2008.
The change in liquidity reflects negative adjusted operating cash flow of
$10.2 billion in the first quarter of 2009, which was partially offset by
U.S. TARP funding. Further detail on GM's current liquidity position and
outlook will be disclosed in a Form 10-Q filing with the Securities and
Exchange in the coming days.
Reinventing GM
On April 27, 2009, GM announced its revised Viability Plan, which is
expected to result in sustainable cash flow and profitability, as well as a
stronger balance sheet. The Plan includes faster and deeper acceleration of
operational actions, encompassing further rationalization of its U.S. brands
and nameplates, dealer consolidation, manufacturing capacity, and hourly
employee and labor-cost reductions. GM also expects to implement additional
salaried employee and executive reductions. These actions are designed to
enable the company to dramatically reduce its U.S. breakeven volume, enabling
GM to be profitable at below-trend industry sales volumes.
In addition, GM announced a number of initiatives to restructure and
deleverage its balance sheet as an important part of the revised Viability
Plan, including an exchange offer to its bondholders aimed at reducing its
unsecured debt by at least $24 billion, conditioned upon exchanging at least
half of its VEBA obligations (about $10 billion) to GM common stock and the
conversion of at least half of GM's U.S. government debt to GM common stock.
GM has not reached agreement with the UAW on the VEBA trust or with the U.S.
Treasury on these conditions yet.
"This is a defining moment in the history of General Motors, and we are
committed to our Plan, which we believe will lead to a stable and sustainable
operating structure with a strong balance sheet," said Henderson. "Our goal
is to fix this business once and for all to position ourselves to win in the
long-term. That will be achieved by putting the customer first in all we do,
focusing on fewer, stronger brands and developing great products that lead in
design, technology, quality and fuel efficiency."

Forward-Looking Statements
This document contains "forward-looking statements." Such statements are
based on the current expectations and assumptions of GM management, and as
such involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those now anticipated - both
in connection with the proposed exchange offers and consent solicitations,
and GM's business and financial prospects -- including (without limitation)
those set forth in the Prospectus Documents filed with the SEC as part of
GM's Registration Statement on Form S-4 (as amended and supplemented). To
better understand these risks and uncertainties, holders of notes and other
readers are encouraged to read carefully the Prospectus Documents (as amended
or supplemented), GM's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2008 which was filed March 5, 2009, and other SEC filings, all

Exhibit 1
General Motors Corporation and Subsidiaries
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release, the accompanying tables and the charts for securities
analysts include the following financial measures, which are not prepared in
accordance with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States
of America (GAAP): (1) adjusted net income; (2) adjusted earnings before
interest and income tax; and (3) managerial cash flow. Each of these
financial measures is therefore considered a non-GAAP financial measure. This
press release and the charts for securities analysts also contain a
reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most comparable GAAP
financial measure. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified in the
consolidated statements of operations and related summaries to conform to the
current period presentation, primarily due to the adoption of SFAS No. 160,
"Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment
of ARB No. 51," which amends ARB No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements,"
and FSP No. APB 14-1, "Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May
Be Settled in Cash Upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement),"
which have retrospective application.
In the three months ended March 31, 2009, GM's financial statements no
longer present FIO operations as a separate segment, which resulted in the
following changes to the condensed consolidated financial statements: (1)
Financial services and insurance revenue were reclassified to Other Revenue;
(2) Financial services and insurance expense was reclassified to Other
expenses; and (3) separate FIO balance sheet line items are no longer
presented. Certain reclassifications were made to the comparable 2008
financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.
Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful
supplemental information regarding GM's operating results because they
exclude amounts that GM management does not consider part of operating
results when assessing and measuring the operational and financial
performance of the organization. In addition, GM has historically reported
similar non-GAAP financial measures and believes that inclusion of these
non-GAAP financial measures provides consistency and comparability with past
earnings releases. GM management believes these measures allow it to readily
view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons, benchmark performance
among geographic regions and assess whether GM's plan to return to
profitability is on target. Also, GM management uses adjusted net income and
adjusted earnings before interest and income taxes for forecasting purposes
and in determining future capital investment allocations. Accordingly, GM
believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in
allowing for greater transparency of supplemental information used by
management in its financial and operational decision-making.
While GM believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful
supplemental information, there are limitations associated with the use of
these non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not
prepared in accordance with GAAP, do not reflect a comprehensive system of
accounting and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other
companies due to potential differences in the method of calculation between
companies. Costs such as the special attrition programs and restructuring
charges that are excluded from GM's non-GAAP financial measures can have a
material effect on net earnings. As a result, these non-GAAP financial
measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation from, or
as a substitute for, net earnings, cash flow from operations, or other
measures of performance or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP. GM
compensates for these limitations by using these non-GAAP financial measures
as supplements to GAAP financial measures and by providing the
reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable
GAAP financial measures. Investors are encouraged to review the
reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable
GAAP financial measures that are included elsewhere in this press release.
General Motors Corporation and Subsidiaries
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Before Interest and Income
Taxes
Adjusted net income excludes charges for certain tax related items, gains
and losses on the sale of business units and business interests, charges
associated with accounting changes, restructuring, plant closure and
impairment charges, charges associated with Delphi Corporation (Delphi),
special attrition program charges, and other gains and losses which
management excludes when assessing the internal performance of the
organization.
Adjusted earnings before interest and income taxes begins with adjusted
net income and is adjusted to remove any remaining interest and income tax
expense or benefit.
Managerial Cash Flow
GM reports non-GAAP managerial operating cash flow in its earnings
releases and charts for securities analysts. Management believes that
providing managerial operating cash flow furnishes it and investors with
useful information by representing the cash flow generated or consumed by its
operations, including cash consumed by capital expenditures and equity
investments in companies related to GM's core business and cash generated by
sales of operating assets and equity investments in companies related to GM's
core business, before funding non-operating-related obligations including
debt maturities, dividends and other non-operating items. Management uses
this non-GAAP financial measure to assess its cash flow when evaluating the
performance of GM, its business units and its management teams and when
making decisions to allocate resources among GM's business units.

(a) On March 4, 2009 GM entered into an agreement to amend a $1.5
billion U.S. term loan, which expires November 2013. Because the
terms of the amended U.S. term loan were substantially different
than the original terms, primarily due to the revised borrowing
rate, the amendment was accounted for as a debt extinguishment. As a
result, GM recorded the amended U.S. term loan at fair value and
recorded a gain of $906 million for the extinguishment of the
original loan facility.
(b) On February 20, 2009, Saab Automobile AB (Saab) filed for
Reorganization under a self-managed Swedish court process, which is
similar to U.S. Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The reorganization
filing resulted in the loss of control necessary for consolidation
and therefore GM deconsolidated Saab on February 20, 2009. Charges of
$822 million were recorded related to GM's net investment in, and
advances to, Saab and other commitments and obligations, including a
commitment to provide up to $150 million of debtor-in-possession
financing.
(c) Income of $385 million representing our proportionate share of
GMAC's debt extinguishment.
(d) Charges of $291 million were recorded for impairments as follows:
GMNA recorded $263 million charges related to long-lived asset
impairments and $28 million related to GM's equity investment in

recorded by region are as follows:
GMNA: Charges of $315 million were recorded for the 2009 Special
Attrition Program. At March 31, 2009, 7,000 hourly employees
participated in the program.
Gains of $411 million were recorded for adjustments to the closed
plant reserve for the suspension of the Job Opportunity Bank and
reductions to accrued wages and benefits due to 7,000 employees
participating in the 2009 Special Attrition Program.
Charges of $169 million were recorded for separation programs
affecting salaried employees and additional planned capacity
actions affecting hourly employees in the United States and Canada.
GME: Charges of $17 million were recorded for separation programs,
primarily in Germany.
GMLAAM: Charges of $26 million were recorded for voluntary and
involuntary separation programs affecting salaried and hourly
employees, primarily in South America and South Africa.
(f) Charges of $135 million were recorded for advances made under the
Delphi Advance Agreement. A reserve was recorded to write-off the
advance as it was deemed uncollectable. No advances were outstanding
at December 31, 2008.

determined that these investments were impaired and that such
impairment was not temporary in nature. Due to the uncertainty
regarding the timing of a recovery, if any, in valuation, GM reduced
the carrying value of these investments to estimated fair value.
