- Cash and Cash Equivalents
- The cash and cash equivalents decreased sharply from March 2020 (38,506 million USD) to December 2020 (19,992 million USD), indicating significant cash usage during this period. It rebounded somewhat in 2021, fluctuating between roughly 17,000 and 23,000 million USD. A similar pattern of volatility continues through 2024 and early 2025, with notable increases in quarters Q2 and Q3 of most years followed by declines, suggesting variable cash flow management or seasonality in cash positions.
- Marketable Debt Securities
- Marketable debt securities exhibited fluctuating values with no clear upward or downward trend. The balance ranged between approximately 6,200 and 12,150 million USD, peaking in Q4 2022 (12,150 million USD) but decreasing thereafter into 2024. This pattern implies selective investment in short-term instruments, possibly adjusting for liquidity needs.
- Accounts and Notes Receivable, Net
- Receivables showed an initial increase in early 2020, a dip in late 2020, followed by a general upward trend through 2022 with a peak near 14,000 million USD in Q3 2022. Post-2022, values oscillate but generally remain elevated compared to 2020, indicating increased credit sales or possibly extended collection terms.
- GM Financial Receivables, Net
- GM Financial receivables steadily increased from 26,320 million USD in Q1 2020 to a peak of around 46,534 million USD in Q4 2024, demonstrating consistent growth in financing receivables. This suggests an expanding financial services portfolio and increased customer financing activity over time.
- Inventories
- Inventory levels rose from about 10,799 million USD in Q1 2020 to a peak exceeding 17,900 million USD in mid-2023, with fluctuations that point to increased stockpiling possibly due to supply chain uncertainties or preparation for demand surges. Late 2024 shows some decline, potentially reflecting inventory drawdown or improved turnover.
- Other Current Assets
- These assets experienced moderate fluctuations between roughly 6,100 to 7,900 million USD over the period, with no marked trend, indicating stable ancillary current asset management.
- Current Assets (Total)
- Total current assets dipped sharply in 2020 (starting at 97,699 million USD and dropping to around 80,600 million USD), reflecting the cash and receivable declines. Subsequently, there is a general upward trend peaking near 115,000 million USD in late 2023 and early 2024 before slightly decreasing, suggesting improved liquidity and asset availability over time.
- Equity in Net Assets of Nonconsolidated Affiliates
- This line item increased steadily from 7,521 million USD in early 2020 to over 10,500 million USD in 2023, before declining notably in 2024 to around 6,800 million USD, implying perhaps disposals, impairment, or revaluation of affiliate interests.
- Property, Net
- Property assets showed slow but consistent growth from roughly 38,000 million USD in 2020 to over 52,000 million USD by early 2025, indicating ongoing investment in property, plant, and equipment.
- Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net
- Goodwill and intangible assets steadily declined from around 5,225 million USD in 2020 to approximately 4,520 million USD in early 2025, possibly reflecting amortization, impairment charges, or disposals.
- Equipment on Operating Leases, Net
- Equipment on operating leases decreased consistently from about 41,296 million USD in early 2020 to near 31,239 million USD in late 2024, suggesting asset disposals, accelerated depreciation, or reduced investment in leased equipment.
- Deferred Income Taxes
- Deferred income taxes remained relatively stable around 20,000 to 24,000 million USD, with minor fluctuations, implying steady tax timing differences.
- Other Assets
- Other assets increased modestly from approximately 6,500 million USD in 2020, peaking near 11,488 million USD in 2021, followed by a decline and fluctuating around 8,500 million USD toward 2025, indicating variable changes in other asset categories.
- Non-current Assets (Total)
- Non-current assets steadily grew from roughly 149,000 million USD in early 2020 to about 172,000 million USD in 2025, highlighting continual investment in long-term assets despite some short-term fluctuations.
- Total Assets
- Total assets decreased slightly from around 246,600 million USD in early 2020 to a low near 235,000 million USD in late 2020, then increased gradually to about 289,000 million USD in late 2024, before declining again to roughly 282,000 million USD in early 2025. This overall upward trajectory suggests asset base expansion over the five-year horizon with some cyclicality.
