GENERAL MOTORS FINANCIAL COMPANY, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Business and Basis of Presentation
General Motors Financial Company, Inc. (sometimes referred to as we, us, our, the Company, or GM Financial), the wholly-owned captive finance subsidiary of General Motors Company (GM), is a global provider of automobile finance solutions. We provide retail loan and lease financing across the credit spectrum to support vehicle sales. Additionally, we offer commercial lending products to dealers, including floorplan financing, which is lending to finance new and used vehicle inventory, and dealer loans, which are loans to finance improvements to dealership facilities, to provide working capital, or to purchase and/or finance dealership real estate.
Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our consolidated subsidiaries, including certain special purpose entities (SPEs) utilized in secured financing transactions, which are considered variable interest entities (VIEs). All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
The consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, are condensed and do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the U.S. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 30, 2024 (2023 Form 10-K).
The condensed consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2024, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, are unaudited and, in management’s opinion, include all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments and transactions or events discretely impacting the interim periods, considered necessary by management to fairly state our results of operations. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2023 was derived from audited annual financial statements. Except as otherwise specified, dollar amounts presented within tables are stated in millions. Certain columns and rows may not add due to rounding.
Note 2. Related Party Transactions
We offer loan and lease finance products through GM-franchised dealers to customers purchasing new vehicles manufactured by GM and certain used vehicles and make commercial loans directly to GM-franchised dealers and their affiliates. We also offer commercial loans to dealers that are consolidated by GM and those balances are included in finance receivables, net.
Under subvention programs, GM makes cash payments to us for offering incentivized rates and structures on retail loan and lease finance products. In addition, GM makes cash payments to us to cover interest payments on certain commercial loans we make to GM-franchised dealers. We received subvention payments from GM of $1.2 billion and $629 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and $2.9 billion and $2.3 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Subvention due from GM is recorded as a related party receivable.
Amounts due to GM for commercial finance receivables originated but not yet funded are recorded as a related party payable.
Cruise is the GM global segment responsible for the development and commercialization of autonomous vehicle technology. We have a multi-year credit agreement with Cruise whereby we may provide advances to Cruise, over time, through 2024, to fund the purchase of autonomous vehicles from GM in support of commercialization. Advances under this credit agreement are guaranteed by GM Cruise Holdings LLC. At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Cruise had $395 million and $353 million of borrowings outstanding and access to an additional $3.4 billion in advances under the credit agreement. Amounts due from Cruise are included in finance receivables, net.
We are included in GM's consolidated U.S. federal income tax returns and certain U.S. state returns, and we are obligated to pay GM for our share of the related tax liabilities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we moved from a taxes payable position of $384 million to a taxes receivable position of $20 million, primarily due to a change in our tax depreciation method. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, no payments were made to GM for state and federal income taxes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we made payments of $67 million to GM for state and federal income taxes related to the tax years 2022 through 2023. Amounts owed to GM for income taxes are recorded as a related party payable.

Under the support agreement with GM (the Support Agreement), if our earning assets leverage ratio at the end of any calendar quarter exceeds the applicable threshold set in the Support Agreement, we may require GM to provide funding sufficient to bring our earning assets leverage ratio within the applicable threshold. In determining our earning assets leverage ratio (net earning assets divided by adjusted equity) under the Support Agreement, net earning assets means our finance receivables, net, plus leased vehicles, net, and adjusted equity means our equity, net of goodwill and inclusive of outstanding junior subordinated debt, as each may be adjusted for derivative accounting.
Additionally, the Support Agreement provides that GM will own all of our outstanding voting shares as long as we have any unsecured debt securities outstanding. GM also agrees to certain provisions in the Support Agreement intended to ensure we maintain adequate access to liquidity. Pursuant to these provisions, GM provides us with a $1.0 billion junior subordinated unsecured intercompany revolving credit facility, and GM will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that we will continue to be designated as a subsidiary borrower under GM's corporate revolving credit facilities. We have access, subject to available capacity, to $14.1 billion of GM's unsecured revolving credit facilities consisting of a five-year, $10.0 billion facility and a three-year, $4.1 billion facility. We also have exclusive access to GM's $2.0 billion 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility (GM Revolving 364-Day Credit Facility). We had no borrowings outstanding under any of the GM revolving credit facilities at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. In March 2024, GM renewed the GM Revolving 364-Day Credit Facility, which matures on March 27, 2025.

We review the ongoing credit quality of our retail finance receivables based on customer payment activity. A retail account is considered delinquent if a substantial portion of a scheduled payment has not been received by the date the payment was contractually due. Retail finance receivables are collateralized by vehicle titles, and, subject to local laws, we generally have the right to repossess the vehicle in the event the customer defaults on the payment terms of the contract. The following tables are consolidated summaries of the amortized cost of retail finance receivables by delinquency status for each vintage of the portfolio at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, as well as summary totals for September 30, 2023.

Loan Modifications Under certain circumstances, we may agree to modify the terms of an existing loan with a borrower for various reasons, including financial difficulties, and we may provide interest rate reductions, principal forgiveness, payment deferments, term extensions or a combination thereof. A loan that is deferred greater than six months in the preceding twelve months would be considered to be other-than-insignificantly delayed. In such circumstances, we must determine whether the modification should be accounted for as an extinguishment of the original loan and a creation of a new loan, or the continuation of the original loan with modifications.
The amortized costs at September 30, 2024 and 2023 of the loans modified during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were insignificant. The unpaid principal balances, net of recoveries, of loans charged off during the reporting period that were modified within 12 months preceding default were insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
Commercial Credit Quality Our commercial finance receivables consist of dealer financing, primarily for dealer inventory purchases, and other financing, which includes loans to commercial vehicle upfitters, as well as advances to certain GM subsidiaries.
For our dealer financing, we use proprietary models to assign a risk rating to each dealer and perform periodic credit reviews of each dealership. We adjust the dealership's risk rating, if necessary. There is limited credit risk associated with other financing due to the structure of the business relationships.
Our dealer risk model and risk rating categories are as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
Dealer Risk Rating | | Description |
I | | Performing accounts with strong to acceptable financial metrics with at least satisfactory capacity to meet financial commitments. |
II | | Performing accounts experiencing potential weakness in financial metrics and repayment prospects resulting in increased monitoring. |
III | | Non-Performing accounts with inadequate paying capacity for current obligations and that have the distinct possibility of creating a loss if deficiencies are not corrected. |
IV | | Non-Performing accounts with inadequate paying capacity for current obligations and inherent weaknesses that make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable or improbable. |
Dealers with III and IV risk ratings are subject to additional monitoring and restrictions on funding, including suspension of lines of credit and liquidation of assets. The following tables summarize the dealer credit risk profile by dealer risk rating at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Note 8. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions. We manage economic risks, including interest rate risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our assets and liabilities and by using derivative financial instruments. Specifically, we enter into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Our derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of our known or expected cash receipts and our known or expected cash payments principally related to our borrowings.
Certain of our foreign operations expose us to fluctuations of foreign interest rates and exchange rates. We primarily finance our earning assets with debt in the same currency to minimize the impact to earnings from our exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates. When we use a different currency, these fluctuations may impact the value of our cash receipts and payments in terms of our functional currency. We enter into derivative financial instruments to protect the value or fix the amount of certain assets and liabilities in terms of the relevant functional currency.
The table below presents the gross fair value amounts of our derivative financial instruments and the associated notional amounts:

The gross amounts of the fair value of our derivative instruments that are classified as assets or liabilities are included in other assets or other liabilities, respectively. Amounts accrued for interest payments in a net receivable position are included in other assets. Amounts accrued for interest payments in a net payable position are included in other liabilities. All our derivatives are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value for Level 2 instruments was derived using the market approach based on observable market inputs including quoted prices of similar instruments and foreign exchange and interest rate forward curves.
We primarily enter into derivative instruments through AmeriCredit Financial Services, Inc. (AFSI); however, our SPEs may also be parties to derivative instruments. Agreements between AFSI and its derivative counterparties include rights of setoff for positions with offsetting values or for collateral held or posted. At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of derivative instruments that are classified as assets or liabilities available for offset was $957 million and $1.2 billion. At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we held $225 million and $457 million of collateral from counterparties that was available for netting against our asset positions. At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had $819 million and $1.2 billion of collateral posted to counterparties that was available for netting against our liability positions.

Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings We are subject to various pending and potential legal and regulatory proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including litigation, arbitration, claims, investigations, examinations, subpoenas and enforcement proceedings. Some litigation against us could take the form of class actions. The outcome of these proceedings is inherently uncertain, and thus we cannot confidently predict how or when proceedings will be resolved. An adverse outcome in one or more of these proceedings could result in substantial damages, settlements, fines, penalties, diminished income or reputational harm.
In accordance with the current accounting standards for loss contingencies, we establish reserves for legal matters when it is probable that a loss associated with the matter has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The actual costs of resolving legal matters may be higher or lower than any amounts reserved for these matters. At September 30, 2024, we estimated our reasonably possible legal exposure for unfavorable outcomes to be approximately $152 million, and we have accrued $131 million.
Other Administrative Tax Matters We accrue non-income tax liabilities for contingencies when management believes that a loss is probable and the amounts can be reasonably estimated, while contingent gains are recognized only when realized. In the event any losses are sustained in excess of accruals, they will be charged against income at that time.
In evaluating indirect tax matters, we take into consideration factors such as our historical experience with matters of similar nature, specific facts and circumstances, and the likelihood of prevailing. We reevaluate and update our accruals as matters progress over time, where there is a reasonable possibility that losses exceeding amounts already recognized may be incurred. Our estimate of additional losses is up to $170 million at September 30, 2024.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-looking statements in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) are not guarantees of future performance and may involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Refer to the "Forward-Looking Statements" section of this MD&A and the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on January 30, 2024 (2023 Form 10-K), for a discussion of these risks and uncertainties.
Basis of Presentation
This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Except as otherwise specified, dollar amounts presented within tables are stated in millions. Certain columns and rows may not add due to rounding. Average balances are calculated using daily balances, where available. Otherwise, average balances are calculated using monthly balances.
Results of Operations
Key Drivers Income before income taxes was relatively flat for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Changes in the key drivers of income before income taxes include the following:
•Finance charge income on retail finance receivables increased $844 million primarily due to an increase in the effective yield and growth in the size of the portfolio. The effective yield on our retail finance receivables increased primarily due to increased average interest rates on new loan originations.
•Finance charge income on commercial finance receivables increased $303 million primarily due to an increase in the size of the portfolio.
•Other income increased $159 million primarily due to higher investment income resulting from an increase in the average investment balance.
•Equity income decreased $56 million primarily due to lower earning asset levels and increased provision for loan losses at our joint ventures in China.
•Interest expense increased $1.1 billion primarily due to an increase in the effective rate of interest on our debt, resulting from higher benchmark rates on new issuances relative to maturing debt, as well as an increase in the average debt outstanding.
•Provision for loan losses increased $143 million primarily due to moderating credit performance and recovery rates.
Non-GAAP Measure
Return on Average Common Equity Return on average common equity is a generally accepted accounting principle (GAAP) measure widely used to measure earnings in relation to invested capital. Our return on average common equity decreased to 15.0% for the four quarters ended September 30, 2024 from 16.4% for the four quarters ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to lower earnings.
Return on Average Tangible Common Equity We use return on average tangible common equity, a non-GAAP measure, to measure our contribution to General Motors Company's (GM) enterprise profitability and cash flows. Our return on average tangible common equity decreased to 16.4% for the four quarters ended September 30, 2024 from 18.0% for the four quarters ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to lower earnings.
GENERAL MOTORS FINANCIAL COMPANY, INC.
The following table presents our reconciliation of return on average tangible common equity to return on average common equity, the most directly comparable GAAP measure:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Four Quarters Ended |
| September 30, 2024 | | September 30, 2023 |
Net income attributable to common shareholder | $ | 2,059 | | | $ | 2,200 | |
| | | |
Average equity | $ | 15,666 | | | $ | 15,358 | |
Less: average preferred equity | (1,969) | | | (1,969) | |
Average common equity | 13,697 | | | 13,389 | |
Less: average goodwill and intangible assets | (1,180) | | | (1,177) | |
Average tangible common equity | $ | 12,517 | | | $ | 12,212 | |
| | | |
Return on average common equity | 15.0 | % | | 16.4 | % |
Return on average tangible common equity | 16.4 | % | | 18.0 | % |
Our calculation of this non-GAAP measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential differences between companies in the method of calculation. As a result, the use of this non-GAAP measure has limitations and should not be considered superior to, in isolation from, or as a substitute for, related U.S. GAAP measures. This non-GAAP measure allows investors the opportunity to measure and monitor our performance against our externally communicated targets and evaluate the investment decisions being made by management to improve our return on average tangible common equity. Management uses this measure in its financial, investment and operational decision-making processes, for internal reporting and as part of its forecasting and budgeting processes. For these reasons, we believe this non-GAAP measure is useful to our investors.

Leased vehicles purchased | $ | 4,874 | | | $ | 4,323 | | | $ | 551 | | | 12.7 | % |
| | | | | | | |
Average retail finance receivables increased primarily due to new loan originations in excess of principal collections and payoffs. Our penetration of GM's retail sales in the U.S. was 38.9% and 40.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Penetration levels vary depending on incentive financing programs available and competing third-party financing products in the market.
Average commercial finance receivables increased primarily due to growth in the average amount financed per dealer, resulting from increased new vehicle inventory, as well as higher floorplan penetration. Our floorplan dealer penetration in the U.S. was 47.4% and 45.0% at September 30, 2024 and 2023.
Leased vehicles purchased increased primarily due to growth in GM sales, higher lease sales mix and higher net capitalized cost.

Finance Charge Income - Retail Finance Receivables Finance charge income on retail finance receivables increased primarily due to an increase in the effective yield and growth in the size of the portfolio. The effective yield on our retail finance receivables increased primarily due to increased average interest rates on new loan originations. The effective yield represents finance charges, rate subvention and fees recorded in earnings during the period as a percentage of average retail finance receivables.
Finance Charge Income - Commercial Finance Receivables Finance charge income on commercial finance receivables increased primarily due to an increase in the size of the portfolio.
Other Income Other income increased primarily due to higher investment income resulting from an increase in the average investment balance.
Equity Income Equity income decreased primarily due to lower earning asset levels and increased provision for loan losses at our joint ventures in China. GM continues to face intense price competition and an increasingly challenging regulatory environment in China, which negatively impacts GM’s sales volume and profitability in its China operations. In addition, we face intense price competition from other auto lenders in China. As a result, the origination volume and earning assets balance have decreased at our joint ventures. GM is working with its joint venture partners and expects to have an updated business plan in China. Based on this business plan GM could record material future charges in the near term. Accordingly, while our operations in China remain overall profitable, we expect to assess the carrying value of our equity investments in light of these activities, which could also result in future charges.

Provision for Loan Losses Provision for loan losses increased primarily due to moderating credit performance.
Interest Expense Interest expense increased primarily due to an increase in the effective rate of interest on our debt, resulting from higher benchmark rates on new issuances relative to maturing debt, as well as an increase in the average debt outstanding.
Taxes Our consolidated effective income tax rates were 27.8% and 25.9% of income before income taxes and equity income for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Hedges Unrealized gain (loss) on hedges included in other comprehensive income (loss) was $(50) million and $80 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The change in unrealized gain (loss) was primarily due to changes in the fair value of our foreign currency swap agreements.
Unrealized gains and losses on cash flow hedges of our floating rate debt are reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings via principal remeasurement or accrual of interest expense.
Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment Foreign currency translation adjustments included in other comprehensive income (loss) were $35 million and $(70) million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Translation adjustments resulted from changes in the values of our international currency-denominated assets and liabilities as the value of the U.S. Dollar changed in relation to international currencies. The foreign currency translation gain for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily due to appreciating values of the Chinese Yuan Renminbi, Brazilian Real, and Canadian Dollar, partially offset by the depreciating value of the Mexican Peso in relation to the U.S. Dollar. The foreign currency translation loss for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to depreciating values of the Brazilian Real, Canadian Dollar, and Chilean Peso in relation to the U.S. Dollar.

Average retail finance receivables increased primarily due to new loan originations in excess of principal collections and payoffs. Our penetration of GM's retail sales in the U.S. was 38.7% and 42.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Penetration levels vary depending on incentive financing programs available and competing third-party financing products in the market.
Average commercial finance receivables increased primarily due to growth in the average amount financed per dealer, resulting from increased new vehicle inventory, as well as higher floorplan penetration. Our floorplan dealer penetration in the U.S. was 47.4% and 45.0% at September 30, 2024 and 2023.
Leased vehicles purchased increased primarily due to growth in GM sales, higher lease sales mix and higher net capitalized cost.

GENERAL MOTORS FINANCIAL COMPANY, INC.
represents finance charges, rate subvention and fees recorded in earnings during the period as a percentage of average retail finance receivables.
Finance Charge Income - Commercial Finance Receivables Finance charge income on commercial finance receivables increased primarily due to an increase in the size of the portfolio.
Other Income Other income increased primarily due to higher investment income resulting from an increase in the average investment balance.
Equity Income Equity income decreased primarily due to lower earning asset levels and increased provision for loan losses at our joint ventures in China. GM continues to face intense price competition and an increasingly challenging regulatory environment in China, which negatively impacts GM’s sales volume and profitability in its China operations. In addition, we face intense price competition from other auto lenders in China. As a result, the origination volume and earning assets balance have decreased at our joint ventures. GM is working with its joint venture partners and expects to have an updated business plan in China. Based on this business plan GM could record material future charges in the near term. Accordingly, while our operations in China remain overall profitable, we expect to assess the carrying value of our equity investments in light of these activities, which could also result in future charges.

Leased Vehicles The following table summarizes activity in our operating lease portfolio (in thousands, except where noted):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Percentage of leased vehicles returned(b) | 24 | % | | 9 | % | | 23 | % | | 8 | % |
________________
(a)Represents the number of vehicles returned to us for remarketing.
(b)Calculated as the number of operating leased vehicles returned divided by the number of operating leases terminated.
The return rate is largely dependent on the level of used vehicle values at lease termination compared to contractual residual values at lease inception. Return rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 increased compared to the same periods in 2023 due to decreased used vehicle values. The return rates continued to be lower than historical levels as used vehicle prices have generally remained higher than contractual residual values. Gains on terminations of leased vehicles were $188 million and $605 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $230 million and $664 million for the same periods in 2023. The decrease in gains is primarily due to fewer terminated leases during 2024.
The following table summarizes the residual value based on our most recent estimates and the number of units included in leased vehicles, net by vehicle type (units in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources
General Our primary sources of cash are finance charge income, leasing income and proceeds from the sale of terminated leased vehicles, net proceeds from credit facilities, securitizations, secured and unsecured borrowings, and collections and recoveries on finance receivables. Our expected material uses of cash are purchases and funding of finance receivables and leased vehicles, repayment or repurchases of secured and unsecured debt, funding credit enhancement requirements in connection with securitizations and secured credit facilities, interest costs, operating expenses, including investments in new initiatives, income taxes and dividend payments.
Typically, our purchase and funding of retail and commercial finance receivables and leased vehicles are initially financed by utilizing cash and borrowings on our secured credit facilities. Subsequently, we typically obtain long-term financing for finance receivables and leased vehicles through securitization transactions and the issuance of unsecured debt.
The following table summarizes our available liquidity:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
Liquidity | September 30, 2024 | | December 31, 2023 |
Cash and cash equivalents(a) | $ | 4,852 | | | $ | 5,282 | |

_________________
(a)Includes $375 million and $380 million in unrestricted cash outside of the U.S. at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, of which certain amounts are considered to be indefinitely invested based on specific plans for reinvestment.
We generally target liquidity levels to support at least six months of our expected net cash outflows, including new originations, without access to new debt financing transactions or other capital markets activity. At September 30, 2024, available liquidity exceeded our liquidity targets.
Cash Flow The following table summarizes our cash flow activities. For further detail, please refer to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities | $ | 4,735 | | | $ | 4,080 | | | $ | 655 | |
Net cash provided by operating activities increased primarily due to an increase in finance charge income and a net decrease in cash used by counterparty derivative collateral posting activities, partially offset by an increase in interest paid.
Credit Ratings We receive ratings from four independent credit rating agencies: DBRS Limited, Fitch Rating (Fitch), Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s) and Standard & Poor’s (S&P). The credit ratings assigned to us from all the credit rating agencies are closely associated with their opinions on GM. As of October 15, 2024, all credit ratings remained unchanged since December 31, 2023.
Credit Facilities In the normal course of business, in addition to using our available cash, we fund our operations by borrowing under our credit facilities, which may be secured and/or structured as securitizations or may be unsecured. We repay these borrowings as appropriate under our liquidity management strategy.

Our securitizations and credit facilities generally utilize special purpose entities, which are also variable interest entities that meet the requirements to be consolidated in our financial statements. Refer to Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion. Unsecured Debt We periodically access the unsecured debt capital markets through the issuance of senior unsecured notes. At September 30, 2024, the aggregate principal amount of our outstanding unsecured senior notes was $57.8 billion.
We issue other unsecured debt through demand notes, commercial paper offerings and other bank and non-bank funding sources. At September 30, 2024, we had $3.7 billion outstanding in demand notes and $3.3 billion under the U.S. commercial paper program.

Support Agreement - Leverage Ratio Our earning assets leverage ratio calculated in accordance with the terms of the support agreement with GM (the Support Agreement) was 8.69x and 8.32x at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and the applicable leverage ratio threshold was 12.00x. In determining our earning assets leverage ratio (net earning assets divided by adjusted equity) under the Support Agreement, net earning assets means our finance receivables, net, plus leased vehicles, net, and adjusted equity means our equity, net of goodwill and inclusive of outstanding junior subordinated debt, as each may be adjusted for derivative accounting.
Asset and Liability Maturity Profile We define our asset and liability maturity profile as the cumulative maturities of our finance receivables, investment in leased vehicles, net of accumulated depreciation, cash and cash equivalents and other assets less our cumulative debt maturities. We manage our balance sheet so that asset maturities will exceed debt maturities each year. The following chart presents our cumulative maturities for assets and debt at September 30, 2024:

Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of condensed financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses in the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates, due to inherent uncertainties in making estimates, and those differences may be material. The critical accounting estimates that affect the condensed consolidated financial statements and the judgment and assumptions used are consistent with those described in Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains several "forward-looking statements." Forward-looking statements are those that use words such as "believe," "expect," "intend," "plan," "may," "likely," "should," "estimate," "continue," "future" or "anticipate" and other comparable expressions. These words indicate future events and trends. Forward-looking statements are our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. These forward-looking statements are subject to many assumptions, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ significantly from historical results or from those anticipated by us. The most significant risks are detailed from time to time in our filings and reports with the SEC, including our 2023 Form 10-K. It is advisable not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to, and do not, publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, except as required by federal securities laws, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
The following factors are among those that may cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or from the forward-looking statements:
•GM's ability to produce and sell new vehicles that we finance in the markets we serve;
•dealers' effectiveness in marketing our financial products to consumers;
•the viability of GM-franchised dealers that are commercial loan customers;
•the sufficiency, availability and cost of sources of financing, including credit facilities, securitization programs and secured and unsecured debt issuances;
•the adequacy of our underwriting criteria for loans and leases and the level of net charge-offs, delinquencies and prepayments on the loans and leases we purchase or originate;

•our ability to effectively manage capital or liquidity consistent with evolving business, operational or financing needs, risk management standards and regulatory or supervisory requirements;
•the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses on our finance receivables;

•changes in the automotive industry that result in a change in demand for vehicles and related vehicle financing;
•the effect, interpretation or application of new or existing laws, regulations, court decisions, legal proceedings and accounting pronouncements;
•adverse determinations with respect to the application of existing laws, or the results of any audits from tax authorities, as well as changes in tax laws and regulations, supervision, enforcement and licensing across various jurisdictions;
•the prices at which used vehicles are sold in the wholesale auction markets;
•vehicle return rates, our ability to estimate residual value at lease inception and the residual value performance on vehicles we lease;
•interest rate fluctuations and certain related derivatives exposure, including risks from our hedging activities;
•our joint ventures in China, which we cannot operate solely for our benefit and over which we have limited control;
•uncertainties associated with benchmark interest rates;
•pandemics, epidemics, disease outbreaks and other public health crises;
•our ability to secure private data, proprietary information, manage risks related to security breaches, cyberattacks and other disruptions to networks and systems owned or maintained by us or third parties and comply with enterprise data regulations in all key market regions;
•foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and other risks applicable to our operations outside of the U.S.;
•changes in tax regulations and earnings forecasts could prevent full utilization of available tax incentives and tax credits;
•changes in local, regional, national or international economic, social or political conditions; and
•impact and uncertainties related to climate-related events and climate change legislation.
If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary materially from those expected, estimated or projected.
