FORD REPORTS SECOND QUARTER LOSS
BECAUSE OF TIRE REPLACEMENT ACTION
* Including Firestone costs, $551 million loss or 30 cents per share (excluding
one-time charges worth $201 million or 11 cents per share).
* Continued strong cash position of $18.9 billion, including VEBA.
* Full-year 2001 earnings outlook affirmed at $1.25 - $1.35 per share.
DEARBORN, Mich., July 18 - Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) reported a loss of $752
million, or 41 cents per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2001. The cost
to replace 13 million Firestone tires to ensure customer safety and satisfaction
more than accounted for the loss. As previously announced, the tire action is
expected to cost $2.1 billion after taxes. Essentially all of the costs were
reflected in the second quarter.
'Our decision in May to replace 13 million potentially unsafe Firestone tires
was an unprecedented action,' said Jacques Nasser, president and CEO. 'Although
we're disappointed it resulted in a second quarter loss, it was the right thing
to do for the safety and trust of our customers.'
Excluding $201 million in charges for Ford's share of Mazda Motor Corporation's
restructuring actions reported in April and the new accounting standard on
hedging and derivatives, Ford lost $551 million, or 30 cents per diluted share.
On a comparable basis, Ford earned $2.53 billion, or $1.18 a share, in the
second quarter of 2000.
Ford's worldwide vehicle unit sales in the 2001 second quarter were 1,858,000,
down 7 percent from 1,995,000 in the year-earlier quarter. Revenues were $42.31
billion, a 5 percent decline from $44.50 billion a year ago.
The following results include the Firestone tire replacement costs, but exclude
one-time charges that were taken in the second quarter of 2001, and charges for
a European restructuring and Visteon Corporation recorded in the 2000 second
quarter.
AUTOMOTIVE OPERATIONS
Worldwide automotive operations lost $1.03 billion in the second quarter,
compared to a profit of $2.07 billion a year ago. Worldwide automotive revenues
were $34.55 billion, compared with $37.37 billion a year ago.
Automotive gross cash at June 30 totaled $18.9 billion, including $2.7 billion
of pre-funding employee benefit expenses through a Voluntary Employee
Beneficiary Association (VEBA) trust. A continued focus on working capital
contributed to the company's strong cash position.
North America: The second quarter loss in North America was $1.14 billion.
Earnings in the 2000 second quarter were $1.84 billion. In addition to the tire
action, 2001 second quarter results were negatively affected by lower unit sales
volumes and higher marketing costs.
Europe: Ford earned $141 million in the second quarter in Europe, compared to
$156 million a year ago. Higher volumes for Ford-brand vehicles, fueled by
strong demand for the new Ford Mondeo and Ford Transit, were offset by losses at
Land Rover and the launch of the Jaguar X-TYPE.
South America: Ford operations in South America lost $70 million, compared to a
loss of $63 million a year ago. Results reflect weaker economic conditions in
Brazil and Argentina.
Rest-of-world: Results from the rest of the world were a profit of $47 million
compared to a profit of $135 million for the 2000 second quarter. The decline is
primarily attributable to Ford's share of Mazda losses.
FORD CREDIT
Ford Credit earned $399 million in the second quarter, up from $388 million a
year ago.
HERTZ
The Hertz Corporation reported a profit of $59 million. A year ago, Hertz had
second quarter earnings of $104 million. Slowdown in the economy and related
business travel, and a more difficult pricing environment, led to the lower
results.
OUTLOOK
'The second quarter was a difficult one for the Ford Motor Company. However, we
launched great new products, including an all-new version of the Ford Explorer
and Jaguar X-TYPE, and we're encouraged by the early market reactions,' Nasser
said.
'Despite the challenges we face, Ford remains in a strong competitive position.
We have great brands and great products, and an integrated leadership team
that's highly focused on the business. In addition, our balance sheet remains
strong, and we continue to expect full-year 2001 earnings per share to be in the
range of $1.25-$1.35,' Nasser said.
Investors can hear a review of first quarter results by Henry Wallace, chief
financial officer, on the Internet at www.streetevents.com or
www.streetfusion.com . The presentation will start at 9 a.m. EDT, July 18.
Ford Motor Company is the world's second largest automaker, selling vehicles in
200 markets and with approximately 345,000 employees on six continents. Its
automotive brands include Aston Martin, Ford, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lincoln,

in the opinion of management reflect those adjustments necessary for a fair
statement of such information. Results for interim periods should not be
considered indicative of results for a full year. Reference should be made
to the financial statements contained in the registrant's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000. For purpose of Notes to
Financial Statements, 'Ford' or the 'Company' means Ford Motor Company and
its majority owned subsidiaries unless the context requires otherwise.
Certain amounts for prior periods were reclassified to conform with present
period presentation.

4 Discontinued Operation - On June 28, 2000, Ford distributed 130 million
shares of Visteon Corporation ('Visteon'), which represented its 100%
ownership interest, by means of a tax-free spin-off in the form of a
dividend on Ford Common and Class B Stock. Ford's financial statements
reflect Visteon as a 'discontinued operation'.
5 Value Enhancement Plan - On August 7, 2000, the Company announced the final
results of its recapitalization, known as the Value Enhancement Plan
('VEP'). Under the VEP, Ford shareholders exchanged each of their old Ford
Common or Class B shares for one new Ford Common or Class B share, as the
case may be, plus, at their election, either $20 in cash, 0.748 additional
new Ford Common shares, or a combination of $5.17 in cash and 0.555
additional new Ford Common shares. As a result of the elections made by
shareholders under the VEP, the total cash elected was $5.7 billion and
the total number of new Ford Common and Class B shares that became issued and
outstanding was 1.893 billion. As a result of the VEP, approximately $1.2
billion was transferred from capital stock to capital in excess of par value
of stock.
In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, prior period
shares and earnings per share amounts were not adjusted.
6 Income Per Share of Common and Class B Stock - Basic income per share of
Common and Class B Stock is calculated by dividing the income attributable
to Common and Class B Stock by the average number of shares of Common and
Class B Stock outstanding during the applicable period, adjusted for shares
issuable under employee savings and compensation plans.
The calculation of diluted income per share of Common and Class B Stock
takes into account the effect of dilutive potential common stock, such as
stock options.
Income (loss) per share of Common and Class B Stock was as follows (in
millions, except per share amounts):
