The first is Ford Motor Co. "Ford is about to tell investors what they've long wondered: How much is the transition to electric vehicles costing?" according to a report by CNBC this week.
Ford will switch from reporting its financial results by region to reporting them by business unit starting on Thursday, according to a statement.
The company will host a "Teach-in" for analysts and media with the theme "Ford Refounded," and release revised versions of its financial results to show how the new business units would have performed in 2021 and 2022, the report noted.
The new reporting structure will consist of five business units: "Ford Blue" for traditional internal combustion engine business, "Model e" for electric vehicles, "Ford Pro" for commercial and government fleet business, "Ford Next" for future tech and non-automotive mobility solutions, and the existing Ford Credit financial services subsidiary, CNBC noted further.
The upcoming financial reporting by Ford will provide investors and analysts with a detailed look into the finances behind the company's EV business, making it the most comprehensive disclosure by any traditional automaker.
Ford's new reporting structure will allow for a breakdown of profits and losses, revenue, margins, and earnings before interest and taxes for each of its business units, providing a baseline for comparisons as the company undergoes its transformation, the report said.
Under CEO Jim Farley's leadership, Ford has initiated a comprehensive restructuring of its business, which involves splitting its primary revenue streams, namely internal combustion vehicles and its commercial fleet business, from the company's developing all-electric vehicles, which are expected to remain unprofitable for at least a few years, the report continued.
