(1)Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are Non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning under U.S. GAAP, and as a result may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures by other companies. Effective July 1, 2023, we revised our calculations of Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted diluted earnings per share to exclude the amortization of acquired intangible assets.  The historical presentation of these Non-GAAP measures within this press release has also been updated to reflect the revised calculations.  Further information and a reconciliation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is included in the back of this press release.

“Overall, our second quarter operating performance largely met our expectations, despite lower than anticipated volumes on certain key vehicle programs in North America. Our focus remains on factors we can control, including operational excellence, cost reductions, and flawless launches. These efforts, together with ongoing customer commercial discussions are enabling us to substantially maintain our 2024 Adjusted EBIT margin range.

 

Our updated 2026 Outlook reflects customer program updates and a tempered view on mid-term electric vehicle penetration rates, particularly in North America. While we have reduced our sales forecast, we are taking a number of concrete actions to mitigate the sales impacts and continue to expect margin expansion and strong free cash flow growth.”

 

- Swamy Kotagiri, Chief Executive Officer

 

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024

 

We posted sales of $11.0 billion for the second quarter of 2024, essentially unchanged from the second quarter of 2023, which compares to a 2% increase in global light vehicle production, including 6% and 1% higher production in China and North America, respectively, partially offset by 5% lower production in Europe. Our sales were negatively impacted by the end of production of certain programs, lower Complete Vehicle assembly volumes, including as a result of the end of production of the BMW 5-Series, and the net weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar. These were offset by higher global light vehicle production, the launch of new programs, and acquisitions, net of divestitures, during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023.

 

Adjusted EBIT was $577 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $616 million in the second quarter of 2023. The decrease in Adjusted EBIT reflects reduced earnings on lower assembly volumes in Complete Vehicles, higher net warranty costs, the unfavourable impact of foreign exchange losses in the second quarter of 2024 compared to foreign exchange gains in the second quarter of 2023 related to the re-measurement of net deferred tax assets that are maintained in a currency other than their functional currency, lower equity income, and higher restructuring costs. These were partially offset by commercial items in the second quarters of 2024 and 2023, which had a net favourable impact on a year over year basis, productivity and efficiency improvements, including lower costs at certain underperforming facilities and lower net engineering costs, including spending related to our electrification and active safety businesses.

 

Income from operations before income taxes was $427 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $483 million in the second quarter of 2023, which includes Other expense, net(2) and Amortization of acquired intangibles of $96 million and $99 million in the second quarters of 2024 and 2023, respectively. Excluding Other expense, net and Amortization of acquired intangibles from both periods, income from operations before income taxes decreased $59 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023.

 

Net income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $313 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $339 million in the second quarter of 2023, which includes Other expense, net(2), after tax and Amortization of acquired intangibles of $76 million and $102 million in the second quarters of 2024 and 2023, respectively. Excluding Other expense, net, after tax and Amortization of acquired intangibles from both periods, net income attributable to Magna International Inc. decreased $52 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023.

 

Diluted earnings per share were $1.09 in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $1.18 in the second quarter of 2023, and Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $1.35 in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $1.54 in the second quarter of 2023.

 

(2) Other expense (income), net is comprised of restructuring and impairment costs relating to Fisker Inc. ["Fisker"], net losses on the revaluation of certain public company warrants and equity investments, gain on business combination, restructuring activities and transaction costs relating to the acquisition of Veoneer Active Safety Business ["Veoneer AS"] during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 & 2024. A reconciliation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is included in the back of this press release.

In the second quarter of 2024, we generated cash from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities of $681 million and generated $55 million in operating assets and liabilities. Investment activities for the second quarter of 2024 included $500 million in fixed asset additions, a $170 million increase in investments, other assets and intangible assets, and $56 million for acquisitions.

 

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024

 

We posted sales of $21.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of 1% from the six months ended June 30, 2023, as global light vehicle production increased 1%, including 7% and 2% higher production in China and North America, respectively, partially offset by 5% lower production in Europe.

 

Adjusted EBIT decreased to $1.05 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $1.06 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to reduced earnings on lower assembly volumes in Complete Vehicles, the unfavourable impact of foreign exchange losses in the first six months of 2024 compared to foreign exchange gains in the first six months of 2023 related to the re-measurement of net deferred tax assets that are maintained in a currency other than their functional currency, higher production input costs net of customer recoveries, lower equity income, acquisitions, net of divestitures, during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023, and higher restructuring costs. These were largely offset by productivity and efficiency improvements, including lower costs at certain underperforming facilities, commercial items in the first six months of 2024 and 2023, which had a net favourable impact on a year over year basis, lower net engineering costs, including spending related to our electrification and active safety businesses and lower launch, engineering and other costs associated with our assembly business.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, income from operations before income taxes was $461 million, net income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $322 million and diluted earnings per share was $1.12, decreases of $297 million, $226 million, and $0.79, respectively, each compared to the first six months of 2023.

 

During the first six months ended June 30, 2024, Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $2.44, compared to $2.69 in the first six months of 2023.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we generated cash from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities of $1.3 billion and used $275 million in operating assets and liabilities. Investment activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 included $993 million in fixed asset additions, a $295 million increase in investments, other assets and intangible assets, $86 million for acquisitions, and $21 million in public and private equity investments.

 

RETURN OF CAPITAL TO SHAREHOLDERS

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we paid $134 million in dividends.

 

Our Board of Directors declared a second quarter dividend of $0.475 per Common Share, payable on August 30, 2024 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 16, 2024.

2026 OUTLOOK

 

In the normal course, we do not update the third year of the Outlook we provide in February of each year. However, given the magnitude of the changes that are taking place in the automotive industry and the potential impacts on our business, management prepared a top-level analysis to update our 2026 Outlook provided in February 2024 for projected Sales, Adjusted EBIT Margin, Equity Income, and Capital Spending.

 

Given the higher-level nature and timing of this analysis, management is not currently able to provide 2026 forecasts with the same granularity as that provided in February 2024, particularly: Sales and Adjusted EBIT margin ranges by Segment for 2026; Megatrend Sales and Adjusted EBIT for the years 2024 to 2026; and 2027 Sales for Battery Enclosures, Powertrain Electrification and ADAS. Accordingly, investors should not rely on the forecasts for these measures provided in our February 2024 Outlook or other Investor presentations.

 

2026 Outlook Assumptions

 

   2026
   Current  Previous
Light Vehicle Production (millions of units)    
North America  16.1  16.1

1 Canadian dollar equals  U.S. $0.74  U.S. $0.74
1 euro equals  U.S. $1.08  U.S. $1.08

 

2026 Outlook

Adjusted EBIT Margin(6)  6.7% - 7.4%  7.0% - 7.7%
       
Equity Income (included in EBIT)  $125 - $170 million  $165 - $210 million
       
Capital Spending  $1.6 - $1.8 billion   

 

Notes:

(6)Adjusted EBIT Margin is the ratio of Adjusted EBIT to Total Sales. Refer to the reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures in the back of this press release for further information

 

Our Outlook is intended to provide information about management's current expectations and plans and may not be appropriate for other purposes. Although considered reasonable by Magna as of the date of this document, the 2024 and 2026 Outlooks above and the underlying assumptions may prove to be inaccurate. Accordingly, our actual results could differ materially from our expectations as set forth herein. The risks identified in the “Forward-Looking Statements” section below represent the primary factors which we believe could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations.

Key Drivers of Our Business

 

Our operating results are primarily dependent on the levels of North American, European, and Chinese car and light truck production by our customers. While we supply systems and components to every major original equipment manufacturer ("OEM"), we do not supply systems and components for every vehicle, nor is the value of our content consistent from one vehicle to the next. As a result, customer and program mix relative to market trends, as well as the value of our content on specific vehicle production programs, are also important drivers of our results.

 

OEM production volumes are generally aligned with vehicle sales levels and thus affected by changes in such levels. Aside from vehicle sales levels, production volumes are typically impacted by a range of factors, including: labour disruptions; free trade arrangements and tariffs; relative currency values; commodities prices; supply chains and infrastructure; availability and relative cost of skilled labour; regulatory frameworks; and other factors.

 

Overall vehicle sales levels are significantly affected by changes in consumer confidence levels, which may in turn be impacted by consumer perceptions and general trends related to the job, housing, and stock markets, as well as other macroeconomic and political factors. Other factors which typically impact vehicle sales levels and thus production volumes include: vehicle affordability; interest rates and/or availability of credit; fuel and energy prices; relative currency values; uncertainty as to consumer acceptance of EVs; government subsidies to consumers for the purchase of low- and zero-emission vehicles; and other factors.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES RECONCILIATION

 

Effective July 1, 2023, we revised our calculations of Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted diluted earnings per share to exclude the amortization of acquired intangible assets. Revenue generated from acquired intangible assets is included within revenue in determining net income attributable to Magna. We believe that excluding the amortization of acquired intangible assets from these Non-GAAP measures helps management and investors in understanding our underlying performance and improves comparability between our segmented results of operations and our peers.

 

The historical presentation of these Non-GAAP measures within this press release has also been updated to reflect the revised calculations.

 

The reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures is as follows:

Certain of the forward-looking financial measures above are provided on a Non-GAAP basis. We do not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. To do so would be potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting items that are not reflective of on-going operations in any future period. The magnitude of these items, however, may be significant.

HIGHLIGHTS

 

Comparing the second quarters of 2024 and 2023:

 

·Global light vehicle production increased 2%, driven by 6% and 1% higher production in China and North America, respectively, offset by a decline of 5% in Europe.

·Total sales were substantially unchanged at $11.0 billion, reflecting the acquisition of Veoneer Active Safety ["Veoneer AS"] in 2023 and the launch of new programs, offset by lower complete vehicle assembly volumes and the net weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar.

·Diluted earnings per share were $1.09, compared to $1.18 in the second quarter of 2023. Adjusted diluted earnings per share(1) were $1.35, compared to $1.54 in the second quarter of 2023. These decreases reflected reduced earnings on reduced complete vehicle sales, higher warranty costs, lower equity income, higher restructuring costs and higher interest expense, partially offset by higher net commercial resolutions and the benefits of our operational excellence activities.

·Cash from operating activities increased $189 million to $736 million.

 

In addition, in the second quarter of 2024 we:

 

·Paid dividends of $134 million;

·Raised Cdn$450 million in the form of Senior Notes;

·Completed the acquisition of HE System Electronic, a supplier of inverter power modules, for $51 million; and

·Were awarded reconfigurable seating business, utilizing our long-rail technology, with a China-based OEM.

Magna International Inc. Second Quarter Report 2024 1

 

INDUSTRY TRENDS & RISKS

 

Our operating results are primarily dependent on the levels of North American, European, and Chinese car and light truck production by our customers. While we supply systems and components to every major original equipment manufacturer ["OEM"], we do not supply systems and components for every vehicle, nor is the value of our content consistent from one vehicle to the next. As a result, customer and program mix relative to market trends, as well as the value of our content on specific vehicle production programs, are also important drivers of our results.

 

Ordinarily, OEM production volumes are aligned with vehicle sales levels and thus affected by changes in such levels. Aside from vehicle sales levels, production volumes are typically impacted by a range of factors, including: labour disruptions; free trade arrangements and tariffs; relative currency values; commodities prices; supply chains and infrastructure; availability and relative cost of skilled labour; regulatory frameworks; and other factors.

 

Overall vehicle sales levels are significantly affected by changes in consumer confidence levels, which may in turn be impacted by consumer perceptions and general trends related to the job, housing, and stock markets, as well as other macroeconomic and political factors. Other factors which typically impact vehicle sales levels and thus production volumes include: vehicle affordability; interest rates and/or availability of credit; fuel and energy prices; relative currency values; uncertainty as to consumer acceptance of EVs; government subsidies to consumers for the purchase of low- and zero-emission vehicles; and other factors.

 

While the foregoing economic, political, and other factors are part of the general context in which the global automotive industry operates, there are a number of significant industry trends that are shaping the future of the industry and creating opportunities and risks for automotive suppliers. We continue to implement a business strategy which is rooted in our best assessment as to the rate and direction of change in the automotive industry, including with respect to trends related to vehicle electrification, advanced driver assistance systems, connectivity, as well as future mobility business models. Our short and medium-term operational success, as well as our ability to create long-term value through our business strategy, are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Significant industry trends, our business strategy, and the major risks we face, are discussed in our Annual Information Form ["AIF"] and Annual Report on Form 40-F ["Form 40-F"] in respect of the year ended December 31, 2023, together with subsequent filings. Those industry trends and risk factors remain substantially unchanged in respect of the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, except as follows:

 

·Program Cancellations, Deferrals and Reductions in Production Volumes: We continue to see OEMs (primarily in North America) cancelling or deferring future EV programs, and/or reducing production volumes for current programs as the expected rate of EV sales growth slows. In China, we are seeing a trend with respect to cancellation and insourcing of advanced driver assistance systems ["ADAS"] programs. The cancellation, deferral or insourcing of current or future programs may adversely affect our ability to execute our strategy.

 

To the extent current production programs are cancelled or production volumes reduced, our sales for 2024 and future years of such programs may be adversely impacted. Additionally, we may be unable to recover various pre-production, engineering, dedicated program capital and other costs incurred in advance of production, or to recover them within the timeframe initially contemplated in our business plan. We may also experience production inefficiencies, including as a result of unutilized or underutilized production capacity and/or disruptions to our workforce plans at facilities affected by the cancellation of, or reduction of production volumes for, current programs. The failure to secure commercial recoveries from customers to offset such costs and other operating inefficiencies may have a material adverse effect on our profitability.

 

·Fisker Bankruptcy: On May 7, 2024, Fisker GmbH ["Fisker Austria"] filed for bankruptcy protection in Austria, and on June 17, 2024, its parent company, Fisker Inc. ["Fisker"] filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the U.S. Although production of the Fisker Ocean SUV in our Graz, Austria, complete vehicle manufacturing facility was suspended early in 2024, our manufacturing agreement with Fisker remains in effect as a result of the automatic stays of actions against Fisker in the U.S. and Austria. There is no certainty regarding the overall timing and outcome of the bankruptcy proceedings, including as to the prospects for successful reorganization of Fisker’s debts, its ability to resume business, validity of payments received from Fisker prior to its bankruptcy filings, or otherwise. We have assumed that production of the Fisker Ocean will not resume. Such lost production has had a material adverse effect on our sales for 2024 and future years of the program.

 

·Complete Vehicle Assembly Business: Magna’s complete vehicle assembly business in Graz, Austria is experiencing uncertainty due to the bankruptcy of Fisker; the planned end of production of the Jaguar E-Pace, Jaguar I-Pace, BMW Z4, and Toyota Supra; and INEOS’ decision to not proceed with the Fusilier program. While this uncertainty is occurring at a time of vehicle production overcapacity in Europe and China, recent European Union tariffs on imported Chinese-made EVs could create opportunities for contract assembly. Although restructuring activities are in place to mitigate the impact of lost production, failure to secure new complete vehicle assembly programs with sufficient volumes and margins to offset discontinued programs could have a material adverse effect on our sales and profitability.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

 

In addition to results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ["U.S. GAAP"], this report includes the use of Adjusted earnings before interest and taxes ["Adjusted EBIT"], Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales, Adjusted diluted earnings per share, and Adjusted Return on Invested Capital [collectively, the "Non-GAAP Measures"]. We believe these Non-GAAP financial measures provide additional information that is useful to investors in understanding our underlying performance and trends through the same financial measures employed by our management. Readers should be aware that Non-GAAP Measures have no standardized meaning under U.S. GAAP and accordingly may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures by other companies. We believe that Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales, Adjusted diluted earnings per share and Adjusted Return on Invested Capital provide useful information to our investors for measuring our operational performance as they exclude certain items that are not reflective of ongoing operating profit and facilitate a comparison with prior periods. The presentation of any Non-GAAP Measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our related financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures are presented together with the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, can be found in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation" section of this MD&A.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

AVERAGE FOREIGN EXCHANGE

 

   For the three months
ended June 30,		   For the six months
ended June 30,		 
   2024  2023  Change   2024  2023  Change 
1 Canadian dollar equals U.S. dollars   0.731   0.745  - 2%  0.736   0.743  - 1%
1 euro equals U.S. dollars   1.076   1.089  - 1%  1.081   1.081  — 
1 Chinese renminbi equals U.S. dollars   0.138   0.143  - 3%  0.139   0.144  - 3%

 

The preceding table reflects the average foreign exchange rates between the most common currencies in which we conduct business and our U.S. dollar reporting currency.

 

The results of operations for which the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rates for the relevant period. Throughout this MD&A, reference is made to the impact of translation of foreign operations on reported U.S. dollar amounts where relevant.

 

Our results can also be affected by the impact of movements in exchange rates on foreign currency transactions (such as raw material purchases or sales denominated in foreign currencies). However, as a result of hedging programs employed by us, foreign currency transactions in the current period have not been fully impacted by movements in exchange rates. We record foreign currency transactions at the hedged rate where applicable.

 

Finally, foreign exchange gains and losses on revaluation and/or settlement of monetary items denominated in a currency other than an operation's functional currency impact reported results. These gains and losses are recorded in selling, general and administrative expense.

 

LIGHT VEHICLE PRODUCTION VOLUMES

 

Our operating results are mostly dependent on light vehicle production in the regions reflected in the table below:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024

 

SALES

 

 

Sales were substantially unchanged at $10.96 billion for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $10.98 billion for the second quarter of 2023. Factors decreasing sales include:

 

·the end of production of certain programs;

·lower complete vehicle assembly volumes, including the end of production of the BMW 5-Series;

·the net weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, which decreased reported U.S. dollar sales by $118 million; and

·net customer price concessions subsequent to the second quarter of 2023.

 

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·higher global light vehicle production;

·the launch of new programs during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023;

·acquisitions, net of divestitures, during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023, which increased sales by $251 million; and

·customer price increases to recover certain higher production input costs.

 

COST OF GOODS SOLD

 

   For the three months
ended June 30,		     
   2024   2023   Change 
Material  $6,657   $6,802   $(145)
Direct labour   819    820    (1)
Overhead   2,018    1,922    96 
Cost of goods sold  $9,494   $9,544   $(50)

 

Cost of goods sold decreased $50 million to $9.49 billion for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $9.54 billion for the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to:

 

·a decrease in material and direct labour costs associated with lower sales in our Complete Vehicles segment, which has a higher material content compared to our consolidated average;

·the net weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, which decreased reported U.S. dollar cost of goods sold by $102 million;

·commercial items in the second quarters of 2024 and 2023, which had a net favourable impact on a year over year basis;

·the impact of operational excellence and cost initiatives; and

·lower net engineering costs, including spending related to our electrification and active safety businesses.

 

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·acquisitions, net of divestitures, during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023;

·higher net production input costs, including for labour and certain commodities;

·higher material, direct labour and overhead associated with higher production sales; and

·an increase in net warranty costs of $34 million.

 

DEPRECIATION

 

Depreciation increased $20 million to $373 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $353 million for the second quarter of 2023 primarily due to acquisitions, net of divestitures, during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023, and increased capital deployed at new and existing facilities including to support the launch of programs subsequent to the second quarter of 2023. These factors were partially offset by the end of production of certain programs and the net weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, which decreased depreciation by $4 million.

 

4Magna International Inc. Second Quarter Report 2024 

 

AMORTIZATION OF ACQUIRED INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

Amortization of acquired intangible assets increased $15 million to $28 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $13 million for the second quarter of 2023 primarily due to the acquisition of Veoneer AS during the second quarter of 2023.

 

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE ["SG&A"]

 

SG&A expense increased $18 million to $523 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $505 million for the second quarter of 2023, primarily as a result of:

 

·a $33 million unfavourable impact of foreign exchange losses in the second quarter of 2024 compared to foreign exchange gains in the second quarter of 2023 related to the re-measurement of net deferred tax assets that are maintained in a currency other than their functional currency;

·higher labour and benefit costs;

·acquisitions, net of divestitures, during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023; and

·higher pre-operating costs incurred at new facilities.

 

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·a gain on sale of assets in the second quarter of 2024 compared to a loss on sale of assets during the second quarter of 2023;

·an unfavourable commercial item in the second quarter of 2023; and

·lower incentive compensation and employee profit sharing.

 

INTEREST EXPENSE, NET

 

During the second quarter of 2024, we recorded net interest expense of $54 million compared to $34 million for the second quarter of 2023. The $20 million increase is primarily a result of interest expense on higher short-term borrowings, the Term Loan entered into during the second quarter of 2023, the $400 million of Senior Notes issued during the first quarter of 2024 and the CAD$450 million of Senior Notes issued during the second quarter of 2024. These factors were partially offset by a $569 million repayment of Senior Notes during the fourth quarter of 2023 and a $750 million repayment of Senior Notes during the second quarter of 2024.

 

EQUITY INCOME

 

Equity income decreased $27 million to $9 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $36 million for the second quarter of 2023, primarily as a result of reduced earnings due to unfavourable product mix at a certain equity-accounted facility. In addition, equity income decreased due to higher launch costs at certain facilities, a divestiture subsequent to the second quarter of 2023, and reduced earnings due to lower sales at certain equity-accounted entities. These factors were partially offset by commercial items in the second quarters of 2024 and 2023, which had a net favourable impact on a year over year basis.

During the second quarter of 2023, our Power & Vision segment reversed $39 million of charges due to a change in the restructuring plans related to a plant closure, and recorded a $10 million gain on the sale of two buildings as a result of restructuring activities.

 

(2)Impairments and restructuring related to Fisker

 

We recognized impairment charges on our Fisker related assets in the first and second quarters of 2024, as well as restructuring charges in the first quarter of 2024. During the second quarter of 2024, Fisker filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and consequently received an automatic stay of creditor actions under bankruptcy protection laws in both Austria and the U.S.

 

Impairment of Fisker related assets

 

During the first quarter of 2024, we recorded a $261 million [$205 million after tax] impairment charge on our Fisker related assets including production receivables, inventory, fixed assets and other capitalized expenditures.

 

We recorded an additional $19 million [$15 million after tax] of charges in the second quarter of 2024 in connection with purchase obligations related to the Fisker program.

   $5   $154   $22   $99   $280 

 

We continue to be exposed to risk related to third-party obligations of approximately $40 million in connection with manufacturing of the Fisker Ocean SUV.

 

Impairment of Fisker warrants

 

Fisker issued approximately 19.5 million penny warrants to us to purchase common stock in connection with our agreements with Fisker for platform sharing, engineering and manufacturing of the Fisker Ocean SUV. These warrants vested during 2021 and 2022 based on specified milestones and were marked to market each quarter.

 

During the first quarter of 2024, we recorded a $33 million [$25 million after tax] impairment charge on these warrants reducing the value of the warrants to nil.

 

When the warrants were issued and the vesting provisions realized, we recorded offsetting amounts to deferred revenue within other accrued liabilities and other long-term liabilities. Portions of this deferred revenue were recognized in income as performance obligations were satisfied. The unamortized amount of this deferred revenue as of June 30, 2024 was approximately $195 million, and will be recognized in income as performance obligations are satisfied or upon termination of the agreement for manufacturing of the Fisker Ocean SUV. The automatic stay prevented the termination of the Fisker Ocean manufacturing agreement during the second quarter of 2024 and delays the realization of deferred revenue pending conclusion of Fisker’s bankruptcy proceedings.

Income from operations before income taxes was $427 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $483 million for the second quarter of 2023. This $56 million decrease is a result of the following changes, each as discussed above:

 

   For the three months
ended June 30,		     
   2024   2023   Change 
Sales  $10,958   $10,982   $(24)
                
Costs and expenses               
Cost of goods sold   9,494    9,544    (50)
Depreciation   373    353    20 
Amortization of acquired intangible assets   28    13    15

INCOME TAXES

 

   For the three months ended June 30, 
   2024   2023 
Income Taxes as reported  $99    23.2%  $129    26.7%
Tax effect on Other expense, net and Amortization of acquired intangible assets   20    (0.4)   (3)   (5.1)
   $119    22.8%  $126    21.6%

 

Excluding the tax effect on Other expense, net and Amortization of acquired intangible assets, our effective income tax rate increased to 22.8% for the second quarter of 2024 compared to 21.6% for the second quarter of 2023 primarily due to unfavourable foreign exchange adjustments recognized for U.S. GAAP purposes and lower utilization of losses previously not benefited in Europe. These factors were partially offset by higher favourable changes in our reserves for uncertain tax positions and higher non-taxable items.

 

INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS

 

Income attributable to non-controlling interests was $15 million for the second quarters of 2024 and 2023.

 

NET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO MAGNA INTERNATIONAL INC.

 

Net income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $313 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $339 million for the second quarter of 2023. This $26 million decrease was as a result of a decrease in income from operations before income taxes of $56 million partially offset by a decrease in income taxes of $30 million.

 

EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

 

 

 

   For the three months
ended June 30,		      
   2024   2023    Change 
Earnings per Common Share             
Basic  $1.09   $1.18    -8%
Diluted  $1.09   $1.18    -8%
Weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding (millions)                            
Basic   287.3    286.2     — 
Diluted   287.3    286.3     — 
Adjusted diluted earnings per share  $1.35   $1.54    -12%

 

Diluted earnings per share was $1.09 for the second quarter of 2024 compared to diluted earnings per share of $1.18 for the second quarter of 2023. The $0.09 decrease was as a result of lower net income attributable to Magna International Inc., as discussed above.

 

Other expense, net, and the Amortization of acquired intangible assets, each after tax, negatively impacted diluted earnings per share by $0.26 in the second quarter of 2024 and $0.36 in the second quarter of 2023, respectively. Adjusted diluted earnings per share, as reconciled in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation" section, was $1.35 for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $1.54 for the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of $0.19.

ADJUSTED EBIT AS A PERCENTAGE OF SALES

 

 

The table below shows the change in Magna's Sales and Adjusted EBIT by segment and the impact each segment's changes had on Magna's Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales for the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023:

 

       Adjusted   Adjusted EBIT
as a percentage		 
   Sales   EBIT   of sales 
Second quarter of 2023  $10,982   $616    5.6%
Increase (decrease) related to:               
Body Exteriors & Structures   (75)   (53)  -0.4%
Power & Vision   464    74   +0.4%
Seating Systems   (148)   (14)   — 
Complete Vehicles   (284)   (14)   — 
Corporate and Other   19    (32)  -0.3%
Second quarter of 2024  $10,958   $577    5.3%

 

Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales decreased to 5.3% for the second quarter of 2024 compared to 5.6% for the second quarter of 2023 primarily due to:

 

·higher net warranty costs;
· an unfavourable impact of foreign exchange losses in the second quarter of 2024 compared to foreign exchange gains in the second quarter of 2023 related to the re-measurement of net deferred tax assets that are maintained in a currency other than their functional currency;
·acquisitions, net of divestitures, during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023;
·reduced earnings on lower assembly volumes;
·lower equity income;
·higher restructuring costs;
·additional supply chain costs in the second quarter of 2024; and
·higher production input costs net of customer recoveries, including for labour.

 

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·commercial items in the second quarters of 2024 and 2023, which had a net favourable impact on a year over year basis;
·productivity and efficiency improvements, including lower costs at certain underperforming facilities;
·lower net engineering costs, including spending related to our electrification and active safety businesses;
·lower incentive compensation and employee profit sharing; and
·lower launch, engineering and other costs associated with assembly business.

ADJUSTED RETURN ON INVESTED CAPITAL

 

 

Adjusted Return on Invested Capital decreased to 9.4% for the second quarter of 2024 compared to 11.0% for the second quarter of 2023 as a result of a decrease in Adjusted After-tax operating profits and higher Average Invested Capital.

 

Average Invested Capital increased $1.29 billion to $18.88 billion for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $17.59 billion for the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to:

 

·average investment in fixed assets in excess of average depreciation expense on fixed assets; and
·acquisitions, net of divestitures, during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023.

 

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·impairments and restructuring related to Fisker during the first six months of 2024;
·the net weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar;
·a decrease in average operating assets and liabilities; and
·lower net investments in public and private equity companies and public company warrants.

Sales – Seating Systems

 

Sales decreased 9% or $148 million to $1.46 billion for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $1.60 billion for the second quarter of 2023 primarily due to:

Sales – Complete Vehicles

 

Sales decreased 19% or $284 million to $1.24 billion for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $1.53 billion for the second quarter of 2023 and assembly volumes decreased 31%. The decrease in sales is substantially a result of lower assembly volumes, including the end of production of the BMW 5-Series, and a $14 million decrease in reported U.S. dollar sales due to the weakening of the euro against the U.S. dollar.

 

 

Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales – Complete Vehicles

 

Adjusted EBIT decreased $14 million to $20 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $34 million for the second quarter of 2023 and Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales decreased to 1.6% from 2.2%. These decreases were primarily due to reduced earnings on lower assembly volumes.

 

The negative impact of lower volumes was partially offset by commercial items in the second quarters of 2024 and 2023, which had a net favourable impact on a year over year basis and lower launch, engineering and other costs.

 

CORPORATE AND OTHER

 

Adjusted EBIT was a loss of $35 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to a loss of $3 million for the second quarter of 2023. The $32 million decrease was primarily the result of:

 

·a $33 million unfavourable impact of foreign exchange losses in the second quarter of 2024 compared to foreign exchange gains in the second quarter of 2023 related to the re-measurement of net deferred tax assets that are maintained in a currency other than their functional currency;
·increased investments in research, development and new mobility; and
·higher costs to accelerate our operational excellence initiatives.

 

These factors were partially offset by lower incentive and stock-based compensation.

Cash provided from operating activities

 

Comparing the second quarter of 2024 to 2023, cash provided from operating activities increased $189 million primarily as a result of:

 

·a $458 million increase in cash received from customers; and

·a $59 million decrease in cash taxes.

 

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·a $136 million increase in cash paid for labour;

·a $124 million increase in cash paid for materials and overhead;

·lower dividends received from equity investments of $48 million; and

·a $18 million increase in cash interest paid.

 

Changes in operating assets and liabilities

 

During the second quarter of 2024, we generated $55 million from operating assets and liabilities primarily consisting of:

 

·a $130 million decrease in production and other receivables;

·a $59 million increase in other accrued liabilities;

·a $58 million decrease in prepaids and other; and

·a $21 million decrease in tooling investment for current and upcoming program launches.

 

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·a $138 million decrease in accounts payable;

·a $29 million decrease in taxes payable;

·a $27 million increase in production inventory; and

·a $15 million decrease in accrued wages and salaries.

Cash used for investing activities in the second quarter of 2024 was $1.37 billion lower compared to the second quarter of 2023. The change between the second quarter of 2024 and the second quarter of 2023 was primarily due to the acquisition of Veoneer AS during the second quarter of 2023.

Financial liabilities increased $237 million to $7.46 billion as at June 30, 2024 primarily as a result of the issuance of $400 million of Senior Notes during the first quarter of 2024, the issuance of Cdn$450 million of Senior Notes during the second quarter of 2024, and an increase in notes outstanding under the U.S and euro commercial paper programs. These increases were partially offset by the repayment of $750 million in Senior Notes during the second quarter of 2024.

 

CASH RESOURCES

 

In the second quarter of 2024, our cash resources decreased by $0.5 billion to $1.0 billion, primarily as a result of cash used for investing and financing activities partially offset by cash provided from operating activities, as discussed above. In addition to our cash resources at June 30, 2024, we had term and operating lines of credit totaling $4.1 billion, of which $2.7 billion was unused and available.

Sales decreased 1% or $85 million to $8.89 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $8.98 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to:

 

·the end of production of certain programs, including the:

·Chevrolet Bolt EV; and

·Dodge Challenger;

·the net weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, which decreased reported U.S. dollar sales by $36 million;

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·the launch of programs during or subsequent to the first six months of 2023, including the:

·Ford F-Series Super Duty;

·Chevrolet Silverado EV; and

·Chevrolet Equinox and Blazer EV; and

·higher production on certain programs.

Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales – Body Exteriors & Structures

 

Adjusted EBIT decreased $27 million to $639 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $666 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales decreased to 7.2% from 7.4%. These decreases were primarily as a result of:

 

·higher production input costs net of customer recoveries, including for labour and certain commodities;

·higher employee profit sharing and incentive compensation;

·reduced earnings on lower sales;

·higher restructuring costs;

·additional supply chain costs in the first six months of 2024; and

·higher net warranty costs of $10 million.

 

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·productivity and efficiency improvements, including lower costs at certain underperforming facilities; and

·lower pre-operating costs incurred at new facilities.

Sales increased 14% or $983 million to $7.77 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $6.79 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to:

 

·acquisitions, net of divestitures, during or subsequent to the first six months of 2023, which increased sales by $603 million;

·the launch of programs during or subsequent to the first six months of 2023, including the:

·Chery Jetour Traveller;

·BMW X1; and

·Chevrolet Silverado EV;

·higher production on certain programs; and

·customer price increases to recover certain higher production input costs.

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·the end of production of certain programs, including the:

·Dodge Charger;

·Ford Fiesta; and

·the net weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, which decreased reported U.S. dollar sales by $85 million; and

·net customer price concessions subsequent to the second quarter of 2023.

 

 

 

Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales – Power & Vision

 

Adjusted EBIT increased $80 million to $296 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $216 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales increased to 3.8% from 3.2%. These increases were primarily as a result of:

 

·increased earnings on improved sales, including higher margins due to the impact of operational excellence and cost initiatives;

·commercial items in the first six months of 2024 and 2023, which had a net favourable impact on a year over year basis;

·lower net engineering costs, including spending related to our electrification and active safety businesses;

·customer recoveries net of higher production input costs, including for energy and freight, partially offset by higher labour costs; and

·costs incurred during the first six months of 2023 relating to the acquisition of Veoneer AS.

 

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·lower equity income;

·acquisitions, net of divestitures, during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2023; and

·higher launch costs;

·higher restructuring costs;

·higher net warranty costs of $9 million; and

·the net weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, which had a $9 million unfavourable impact on reported U.S. dollar Adjusted EBIT.

Sales – Seating Systems

 

Sales decreased 6% or $179 million to $2.91 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $3.09 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to:

 

·the end of production of certain programs, including the:

·Chevrolet Bolt EV;

·Skoda Superb; and

·Lincoln Nautilus;

·the net weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, which decreased reported U.S. dollar sales by $21 million; and

·net customer price concessions subsequent to the first six months of 2023.

 

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·higher production on certain programs;

·customer price increases to recover certain higher production input costs; and

·the launch of programs during or subsequent to the first six months of 2023, including the:

·Mini Countryman;

·Deepal S7; and

·Lynk & Co 08.

 

 

 

Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales – Seating Systems

 

Adjusted EBIT increased $1 million to $105 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $104 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales increased to 3.6% from 3.4%. These increases were primarily due to:

 

·lower launch costs; and

·customer recoveries, net of higher production input costs primarily related to business in Argentina.

 

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·reduced earnings on lower sales;

·inefficiencies at certain underperforming facilities; and

·commercial items in the second quarters of 2024 and 2023, which had a net unfavourable impact on a year over year basis.

Sales – Complete Vehicles

 

Sales decreased 17% or $527 million to $2.63 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $3.15 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and assembly volumes decreased 33%. The decrease in sales is substantially a result of lower assembly volumes, including the end of production of the BMW 5-Series.

 

 

 

Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales – Complete Vehicles

 

Adjusted EBIT decreased $39 million to $47 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $86 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales decreased to 1.8% from 2.7%. These decreases were primarily due to reduced earnings on lower assembly volumes.

 

The negative impact of lower volumes was partially offset by:

 

·commercial items in the first six months of 2024 and 2023, which had a net favourable impact on a year over year basis; and

·lower launch, engineering and other costs.

 

CORPORATE AND OTHER

 

Adjusted EBIT was a loss of $41 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to a loss of $7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The $34 million decrease was primarily the result of:

 

·a $41 million unfavourable impact of foreign exchange losses in the first six months of 2024 compared to foreign exchange gains in the first six months of 2023 related to the re-measurement of net deferred tax assets that are maintained in a currency other than their functional currency;

·increased investments in research, development and new mobility;

·lower amortization of the initial value of public company securities; and

·higher costs to accelerate our operational excellence initiatives.

 

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·lower incentive compensation; and

·gain on sale of an equity-method investment during the first six months of 2024.

Corporate and Other   81    (34)   -0.2%
Six months ended June 30, 2024  $21,928   $1,046    4.8%

 

Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales decreased to 4.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to 4.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 primarily due to:

 

·acquisitions, net of divestitures, during and subsequent to the second quarter of 2023;

·reduced earnings on lower assembly volumes;

·higher production input costs net of customer recoveries, including for labour, partially offset by lower prices for energy;
·an unfavourable impact of foreign exchange losses in the first six months of 2024 compared to foreign exchange gains in the first six months of 2023 related to the re-measurement of net deferred tax assets that are maintained in a currency other than their functional currency;

·lower equity income;

·higher restructuring costs;

·higher net warranty costs;

·increased investments in research, development and new mobility;

·higher employee profit sharing and incentive compensation; and

·additional supply chain costs in the first six months of 2024.

 

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·productivity and efficiency improvements, including lower costs at certain underperforming facilities;

·commercial items in the first six months of 2024 and 2023, which had a net favourable impact on a year over year basis;

·lower net engineering costs, including spending related to our electrification and active safety businesses; and

·lower launch, engineering and other costs associated with assembly business.

ADJUSTED RETURN ON INVESTED CAPITAL

 

 

 

Adjusted Return on Invested Capital decreased to 8.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to 9.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as a result of higher Average Invested Capital and a decrease in Adjusted After-tax operating profits.

 

Average Invested Capital increased $1.84 billion to $18.90 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $17.06 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to:

 

·average investment in fixed assets in excess of average depreciation expense on fixed assets; and

·acquisitions, net of divestitures, during and subsequent to the first six months of 2023.

 

These factors were partially offset by:

 

·impairments and restructuring related to Fisker during the first six months of 2024;

·lower net investments in public and private equity companies and public company warrants; and

·a decrease in average operating assets and liabilities.

NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

[Unaudited]

[All amounts in U.S. dollars and all tabular amounts in millions unless otherwise noted]

 

1.     SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

[a]   Basis of presentation

 

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Magna International Inc. and its subsidiaries [collectively "Magna" or the "Company"] have been prepared in U.S. dollars following accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ["GAAP"]. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not conform in all respects to the requirements of GAAP for annual financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2023 audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 2023 Annual Report.

 

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which consist only of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position as at June 30, 2024 and the results of operations, changes in equity, and cash flows for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, $13 million and $25 million have been reclassified from Depreciation and amortization to Amortization of acquired intangible assets on the consolidated statements of income to conform with current period presentation.

 

[b]   Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results could ultimately differ from those estimates.

2.     OTHER EXPENSE (INCOME), NET (CONTINUED)

 

[b]   Impairments and restructuring related to Fisker

 

The Company recognized impairment charges on its Fisker related assets in the first and second quarters of 2024, as well as restructuring charges in the first quarter of 2024. During the second quarter of 2024, Fisker filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and consequently received an automatic stay of creditor actions under bankruptcy protection laws in both Austria and the U.S.

 

Impairment of Fisker related assets

 

During the first quarter of 2024, the Company recorded a $261 million [$205 million after tax] impairment charge on its Fisker related assets including production receivables, inventory, fixed assets and other capitalized expenditures. The Company recorded an additional $19 million [$15 million after tax] of charges in the second quarter of 2024 in connection with purchase obligations related to the Fisker program.

 

The following table summarizes the net asset impairments for the six months ended June 30, 2024, by segment:

 

   Body                 
   Exteriors &   Power &   Seating   Complete     
   Structures   Vision   Systems   Vehicles   Total 
Accounts receivable  $3   $4   $2   $14   $23 
Inventories   5    47    8    2    62 
Other assets, net   —    54    —    90    144 
Fixed assets, net   1    49    5    3    58 
Other accrued liabilities   (5)   —    6    (10)   (9)
Operating lease right-of-use assets   1    —    1    —    2 
   $5   $154   $22   $99   $280 

 

The Company continues to be exposed to risk related to third-party obligations of approximately $40 million in connection with manufacturing of the Fisker Ocean SUV.

 

Impairment of Fisker warrants

 

Fisker issued approximately 19.5 million penny warrants to the Company to purchase common stock in connection with our agreements with Fisker for platform sharing, engineering and manufacturing of the Fisker Ocean SUV. These warrants vested during 2021 and 2022 based on specified milestones and were marked to market each quarter.

 

During the first quarter of 2024, Magna recorded a $33 million [$25 million after tax] impairment charge on these warrants reducing the value of the warrants to nil.

 

When the warrants were issued and the vesting provisions realized, the Company recorded offsetting amounts to deferred revenue within other accrued liabilities and other long-term liabilities. Portions of this deferred revenue were recognized in income as performance obligations were satisfied. The unamortized amount of this deferred revenue as of June 30, 2024 was approximately $195 million, and will be recognized in income as performance obligations are satisfied or upon termination of the agreement for manufacturing of the Fisker Ocean SUV. The automatic stay prevented the termination of the Fisker Ocean manufacturing agreement during the second quarter of 2024 and delays the realization of deferred revenue pending conclusion of Fisker’s bankruptcy proceedings.

 

Restructuring

 

In the first quarter of 2024, the Company recorded additional restructuring charges of $22 million [$17 million after tax] in its Complete Vehicles segment in connection with its Fisker related assembly operations.

The dilutive effect of participating securities using the two-class method was excluded from the calculation of earnings per share because the effect would be immaterial.

[b]Supplier financing program

 

The Company has supplier financing programs with third-party financial institutions that provides financing to suppliers of tooling related materials. These arrangements allow suppliers to elect to be paid by a financial institution at a discount earlier than the maturity date of the receivable, which may extend from 6 to 18 months. The Company will pay the full amount owing to the financial institution on the maturity dates. Amounts outstanding under these programs as at June 30, 2024 were $136 million [$132 million at December 31, 2023] and are presented within accounts payable.

 

[c]Fair value

 

The Company determined the estimated fair values of its financial instruments based on valuation methodologies it believes are appropriate; however, considerable judgment is required to develop these estimates. Accordingly, these estimated fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The estimated fair value amounts can be materially affected by the use of different assumptions or methodologies. The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments are described below:

 

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term borrowings

 

Due to the short period to maturity of the instruments, the carrying values as presented in the consolidated balance sheets are reasonable estimates of fair values.

 

Publicly traded and private equity securities

 

The fair value of the Company’s investments in publicly traded equity securities is determined using the closing price on the measurement date, as reported on the stock exchange on which the securities are traded. [Level 1 input based on the GAAP fair value hierarchy]

 

The Company estimates the value of its private equity securities based on valuation methods using the observable transaction price at the transaction date and other observable inputs including rights and obligations of the securities held by the Company. [Level 3 input based on the GAAP fair value hierarchy]

13.Financial instruments (CONTINUED)

 

Warrants

 

The Company estimates the value of its warrants based on the quoted prices in the active market for the common shares, [Level 2 inputs based on the GAAP fair value hierarchy], followed by an impairment review considering both qualitative and quantitative factors that may have a significant impact on the investee’s fair value.

 

Term Loans

 

The Company’s Term Loans consists of advances in the form of 1, 3 or 6-month loans that may be rolled over until the end of the 3 and 5-year terms. Due to the short-term maturity of each loan, the carrying value as presented in the consolidated balance sheets is a reasonable estimate of its fair value.

 

Senior Notes

 

At June 30, 2024, the net book value of the Company's Senior Notes was $4.4 billion and the estimated fair value was $4.3 billion. The fair value of the Senior Notes are classified as Level 1 when quoted prices in active markets are available and Level 2 when the quoted prices are from less active markets or when other observable inputs are used to determine fair value.

 

[d]Credit risk

 

The Company's financial assets that are exposed to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, debt investments, and foreign exchange and commodity forward contracts with positive fair values. Cash and cash equivalents, which consist of short-term investments, are only invested in bank term deposits and bank commercial paper with an investment grade credit rating. Credit risk is further reduced by limiting the amount which is invested in certain major financial institutions.

 

The Company is also exposed to credit risk from the potential default by any of its counterparties on its foreign exchange forward contracts. The Company mitigates this credit risk by dealing with counterparties who are major financial institutions that the Company anticipates will satisfy their obligations under the contracts.

 

In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to credit risk from its customers, substantially all of which are in the automotive industry and are subject to credit risks associated with the automotive industry. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, sales to the Company's six largest customers represented 74% of the Company's total sales; and substantially all of its sales are to customers with which the Company has ongoing contractual relationships. The Company conducts business with newer electric vehicle-focused customers, which poses incremental credit risk due to their relatively short operating histories; limited financial resources; less mature product development and validation processes; uncertain market acceptance of their products/services; and untested business models. These factors may elevate our risks in dealing with such customers, particularly with respect to recovery of: pre-production (including tooling, engineering, and launch) and production receivables; inventory; fixed assets and capitalized preproduction expenditures; as well as other third party obligations related to such items.  As at June 30, 2024, the Company’s balance sheet exposure related to newer electric vehicle-focused customers was approximately $250 million. In determining the allowance for expected credit losses, the Company considers changes in customer's credit ratings, liquidity, customer's historical payments and loss experience, current economic conditions, and the Company's expectations of future economic conditions.

 

[e]Interest rate risk

 

The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk due to the short-term maturity of its monetary current assets and current liabilities. In particular, the amount of interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents is impacted more by investment decisions made and the demands to have available cash on hand than by movements in interest rates over a given period.

 

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its Term Loans as the interest rate is variable, however the Company is not exposed to interest rate risk on Senior Notes as the interest rates are fixed.

13.Financial instruments (CONTINUED)

 

[f]Currency risk and foreign exchange contracts

 

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates when manufacturing facilities have committed to the delivery of products, and/or the purchase of materials and equipment in currencies other than the facilities' functional currency. In an effort to manage this net foreign exchange exposure, the Company employs hedging programs, primarily through the use of foreign exchange forward contracts.

 

At June 30, 2024, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts representing commitments to buy and sell various foreign currencies. Significant commitments are as follows:

 

   For Canadian dollars   For U.S. dollars   For Euros 
       Weighted       Weighted       Weighted   Czech   Weighted 
   U.S. dollar   average   Peso   average   U.S. dollar   average   Koruna   average

(Sell)   (480)   1.28116    —    —    (33)   1.08982    —    — 

 

Forward contracts mature at various dates through 2026. Foreign currency exposures are reviewed quarterly.

 

[g]Equity price risk

 

Public equity securities and warrants

 

The Company's public equity securities are subject to market price risk due to the risk of loss in value that would result from a decline in the market price of the common shares or underlying common shares.

 

14.CONTINGENCIES

 

From time to time, the Company may become involved in regulatory proceedings, or become liable for legal, contractual and other claims by various parties, including customers, suppliers, former employees, class action plaintiffs and others. On an ongoing basis, the Company attempts to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to these proceedings or claims, together with potential ranges of probable costs and losses. A determination of the provision required, if any, for these contingencies is made after analysis of each individual issue. The required provision may change in the future due to new developments in each matter or changes in approach such as a change in settlement strategy in dealing with these matters.

 

In December 2023, the Company received a notification [the “Notification Letter”] from a customer informing the Company as to the customer’s initial determination that one of the Company’s operating groups bears responsibility for costs totaling $352 million related to two product recalls. The Notification Letter triggered a negotiation period regarding financial allocation of the total costs for the two recalls, which remains on-going. In the event such negotiations are not concluded successfully, the customer has discretion under its Terms and Conditions to debit Magna up to 50% of the parts and labour costs actually incurred related to the recalls. The Company believes that the product in question met the customer’s specifications, and accordingly, is vigorously contesting the customer’s determination. Magna does not currently anticipate any material liabilities.

 

In July 2024, a Tier 2 supplier filed a claim against the Company for alleged damages arising from de-sourcing of its component on one OEM customer’s applications, as well as volume shortfalls on another OEM customer’s applications containing the component. Although the supplier has indicated that its claim cannot be fully quantified at this time, the supplier has estimated that the aggregate amount of financial loss incurred will be approximately €250 million. The same supplier has also filed multiple patent infringement claims seeking a preliminary injunction restricting the Company’s sale of systems alleged to infringe the supplier’s patents, as well as monetary damages. The Company believes it has valid defenses to the supplier’s claims and is vigorously contesting the claims. Due to the early stage of proceedings, it is too early to predict the outcome.

15.SEGMENTED INFORMATION

 

Magna is a global automotive supplier which has complete vehicle engineering and contract manufacturing expertise, as well as product capabilities which include body, chassis, exterior, seating, powertrain, active driver assistance, electronics, mirrors & lighting, mechatronics, and roof systems. Magna also has electronic and software capabilities across many of these areas.

 

The Company is organized under four operating segments: Body Exteriors & Structures, Power & Vision, Seating Systems, and Complete Vehicles. These segments have been determined on the basis of technological opportunities, product similarities, market and operating factors, and are also the Company's reportable segments.

 

The Company's chief operating decision maker uses Adjusted Earnings before Interest and Income Taxes ["Adjusted EBIT"] as the measure of segment profit or loss, since management believes Adjusted EBIT is the most appropriate measure of operational profitability or loss for its reporting segments. Adjusted EBIT is calculated by taking Net income and adding back Amortization of acquired intangible assets, Income taxes, Interest expense, net and Other (income) expense, net.

 

The Adjusted EBIT presented in the tables below for the prior period have been updated to reflect the revised calculation of Adjusted EBIT adopted by the Company effective July 1, 2023, which excludes the amortization of acquired intangible assets.

2. No misrepresentations: Based on my knowledge, having exercised reasonable diligence, the interim filings do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated or that is necessary to make a statement not misleading in light of the circumstances under which it was made, with respect to the period covered by the interim filings.
