  • Ford beats Q1 earnings, lifts full-year outlook on tariff rollback; commodity costs pose risk
    April 30, 2026, 7:29 AM EDT. Ford (F) posted strong first-quarter results, boosted by a $1.3 billion one-time gain from repealed tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). Automotive revenue reached $39.82 billion, with adjusted EPS of $0.66 beating expectations. The company raised its full-year adjusted EBIT guidance to $8.5-$10.5 billion, citing improved F-150 sales and a recovered aluminum supply from Novelis plant disruptions. However, Ford flagged around $2 billion in commodity cost pressures for the second half, primarily from aluminum and steel, weighing on profits. CEO Jim Farley highlighted progress under the Ford+ plan targeting an 8% EBIT margin by 2029. The firm also plans $1 billion investment in its Model e and Universal EV platform. Shares gained initially but trimmed some advance in premarket trading.
