generating a huge response from customers and critics alike," Head
of U.S. Sales Reid Bigland said.

month long."
June results also mark the end of monthly sales reporting by FCA
US LLC. The first quarterly sales report will occur on Oct. 1, covering the months of July, August and
September.

Method of Determining FCA US LLC's Monthly Sales.
FCA US's reported vehicle sales
represent unit sales of vehicles to retail customers, deliveries of
vehicles to fleet customers and to others such as FCA US's employees and retirees as well as
vehicles used for marketing. Most of these reported sales reflect
retail sales made by dealers out of their own inventory of vehicles
previously purchased by them from FCA
US. Reported vehicle units sales do not correspond to
FCA US's reported revenues, which
are based on FCA US's sale and
delivery of vehicles, and typically recognized upon shipment to the
dealer or end customer. As announced on July
26, 2016, FCA US has modified
its methodology for monthly sales reporting as follows:
- Sales to retail customers by dealers in the U.S. are derived
from the New Vehicle Delivery Report ("NVDR") system and are
determined as the sum of (A) all sales recorded by dealers
during the month net of all unwound transactions recorded to the
end of that month (whether the original sale was recorded in the
current month or any prior month); plus (B) all sales of vehicles
during that month attributable to past unwinds that had previously
been reversed in determining monthly sales (in the current or prior
months).
- Fleet sales are recorded upon the shipment of the vehicle by
FCA US to the customer or end
user.
- Other retail sales are recorded either (A) when the sale is
recorded in the NVDR system (for sales by dealers in Puerto Rico and limited sales made through
distributors that submit NVDRs in the same manner as for sales by
U.S. dealers) or (B) upon receipt of a similar delivery
notification (for vehicles for which NVDRs are not entered such as
vehicles for FCA employees).
