Ford Q2 Preview: Profit Swing Expected Despite Revenue Dip, Army Truck Bid Revealed
F sits 36% above its 52-week low of $10.68.
Summary
Ford is expected to swing to a $290M net profit in Q2 from a year-ago loss, even as revenue drops to $47.24B from $50.18B. Adjusted EPS is seen at $0.36, slightly below last year's $0.37. The report also reveals Ford is competing with GM for a next-gen Army tactical truck contract—a potential Cold War-era-sized deal—and has struck a manufacturing partnership with Geely in Spain to build a new SUV. Vehicle sales fell 10% in the quarter, driven by phaseouts of Escape and Corsair, raising questions about whether Ford can hit 2026 production targets without build-quality risks. Earnings are due after Tuesday's close.
