Buy, Sell or Hold F Stock? Key Insights Ahead of Q1 Earnings
Ford F is slated to release first-quarter 2025 results on May 5, after market close. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the to-be-reported quarter's EPS and automotive revenues is pegged at breakeven and $35.5 billion, respectively. The earnings estimate for the to-be-reported quarter has moved up by 2 cents over the past seven days. In the year-ago period, the company reported EPS of 49 cents. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for quarterly revenues suggests an 11% decline from the year-ago quarter's figure. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research For 2025, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for F's automotive revenues is pegged at $162.3 billion, suggesting a decline of 6% year over year. The consensus mark for full-year EPS is $1.22, calling for a 33.7% year-over-year contraction. In the trailing four quarters, this U.S. legacy automaker surpassed EPS estimates on two occasions, missed once and matched on the other, with the average earnings surprise being 1.21%. Ford Motor Company price-eps-surprise | Ford Motor Company Quote Our proven model does not conclusively predict an earnings beat for Ford this time around. The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat. That's not the case here.

You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank stocks here. (Find the latest EPS estimates and surprises on Zacks Earnings Calendar.) While most automakers reported a year-over-year increase in their first-quarter sales volumes, it was not the case with Ford. The company's sales declined 1.3% in the to-be-reported quarter to 501,291 units. The drop was mainly due to the timing of rental fleet sales and the discontinuation of the Ford Edge and Transit Connect. However, retail sales grew 5% during the quarter. Sales of Ford's electrified vehicles, including EVs and hybrids, jumped 25.5% to 73,623 units. Tesla TSLA was another auto biggie that saw its deliveries drop in the quarter under discussion. It delivered 336,681 EVs, which fell 13% year over year. Meanwhile, Ford's closest peer General Motors GM sold 693,363 units in the first quarter of 2025, up 17% year over year. Ford had notified on its last earnings call itself that the company will sell fewer internal combustion engine vehicles compared to 2024. Additionally, a shift in product mix and foreign exchange headwinds will drag profits. Ford had guided breakeven adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of 2025, marking a sharp drop from $2.7 billion in the first quarter of 2024 and $2.1 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024 due to lower volumes, a 20% production cut and plant launch activities. Here's a rundown of the estimates for Ford's revenues and EBIT for key segments for the three months ended March 31. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues from the Ford Blue unit (comprising ICE and hybrid models) is pegged at $17.6 billion, implying a decrease of 19% year over year. The consensus mark for the segment's EBIT is $275 million, down from $905 million recorded in the first quarter of 2024. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues from the Ford model e unit (comprising of electric vehicles) is pegged at $1.5 billion, compared with $115 million in the corresponding period in 2024. The consensus mark for the segment's loss before interest and taxes is $1.17 billion, narrower than $1.32 billion in the year-ago quarter. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues from the Ford Pro unit (encompassing commercial vehicles and services) is pegged at $16.2 billion, implying a decline of 10% year over year. The consensus mark for the segment's EBIT is $1.5 billion, suggesting a decline from $3 billion recorded in the first quarter of 2024. Year to date, shares of Ford have inched up 1.1%, outperforming the industry. It has also performed better than Tesla and General Motors, whose shares have plunged 30% and 15%, respectively, so far in 2025. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research From a valuation perspective, Ford is trading relatively cheap. Going by its price/sales ratio, the company is trading at a forward sales multiple of 0.24, below the industry's 2.37. The company has a Value Score of A. Meanwhile, Tesla looks too pricey at a forward sales multiple of 8.57, whereas General Motors' P/S sits at 0.25. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research Ford is indeed facing challenges. Widening EV losses, weakening ICE performance and auto tariffs threaten margins and earnings. Its 2025 outlook is soft and doesn't even account for tariffs. Full-year adjusted EBIT is forecast at $7-$8.5 billion, down from $10.2 billion in 2024. Warranty costs and generous incentives will weigh on margins and overall profitability. However, not all is gloom and doom. The combination of Ford Pro's strong order books, increasing demand signals and the successful launch of the all-new Super Duty sets the stage for a highly promising future for the Ford Pro segment. While the 2025 EBIT guidance for the segment implies a year-over-year decline, it is still expected to be the major profit driver for the company. Additionally, Ford's high dividend yield of roughly 6% is quite appealing to income-focused investors. The company targets a payout ratio of 40-50% of free cash flow, reinforcing its commitment to shareholder returns. Ford's strong liquidity position provides a cushion, with $28 billion in cash and around $47 billion in total liquidity at the end of 2024. So, all in all, it is worth holding on to Ford stock now. However, investing ahead of its upcoming results doesn't seem a good idea. It's better to wait for management's commentary on tariffs and updated 2025 guidance to see the potential impact.

Ford Recalling 105,000 Expeditions, Navigators Over Seat Belts — And Yes, Some Are Re-Recalls
The Ford Motor Company is recalling 105,322 2018–2020 Expeditions and Lincoln Navigators because a problem with the seat belts may cause the pretensioner to inadvertently activate. And as we at Road & Track have seen a few times here in recent memory, some of the vehicles included in this recall were part of a previous recall and were repaired incorrectly. Ford's description of the problem is as follows: 'Oxidation on top of the seat belt pretensioner squib pins where the bridge-wire is connected in the seat belt pretensioner squib causes a high resistance or open circuit (primary failure) that triggers a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) and airbag light ON. If the welding between the squib pin and the bridge-wire degrades after extended corrosion, a pretensioner inadvertent deployment (secondary failure) may occur.' Of course, once the pretensioner is activated, that locks the seat belt in position, so it can't retract or extend. The good news is that you'll have a warning that this event might be coming, because the airbag light will illuminate before the pretensioner deployment, according to Ford. The faulty retractors were built within a specific production date range, so Ford will inspect the parts to determine if they're part of the bad batch, then replace them with assemblies built outside of the faulty range if needed. Three other, smaller recalls from Ford have also just hit the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration's website. One is for the 2025 F-150 PowerBoost: 47 trucks are being recalled because the high voltage junction box may contain an incorrect fuse, possibly causing a sudden loss of power. Dealers will replace the incorrect 60-amp fuse with a 150-amp fuse in affected pickups. 152 examples of the 2019-2020 Transit Connect are being recalled for the same issue it's been recalled for before — the engine overheating. Ford says the powertrain control module's fail-safe temperature threshold values are higher than intended for the engine, which could result in delayed engine cooling and ultimately engine overheating. Dealers will simply update the software to remedy the problem. And lastly, Ford is recalling 4163 vehicles from among the population of 2024-2025 F-150s, 2024-2025 Expeditions and 2024 Navigators. These vehicles might be equipped with 'a misaligned engine cup plug at the side or rear of the engine, which may result in a rapid oil leak.' Ford says the cup plug hydraulic insertion press was misaligned during production, which results in distortion of the cup. Affected vehicles will be inspected, and if necessary, a new cup plug will be installed with the proper alignment.

Ford reports 1st quarter total sales fell 1.3% as it ended production of some models
Ford Motor Co. reported Tuesday that total U.S. new vehicle sales dropped by 1.3% to 501,291 vehicles in the first quarter compared with the year-ago period. The drop was due mostly to the timing on Ford's rental fleet sales, making the comparison against the year-ago period tougher, and its discontinuation of the popular Ford Edge SUV and Transit Connect van. Ford stopped production of the Edge in April last year. Ford ended the small Transit Connect after the 2023 model year. On a retail sales-only basis, Ford reported sales rose 5% for the quarter. It was driven by a surge in sales last month, the automaker said. Industry experts have reported some sales growth last month as consumers tried to get in front of the 25% tariffs on imported cars and parts set to take effect later this week. "As we expected of most automakers, Ford's increase in March makes a lot of sense given a new sense of urgency by consumers to buy before tariffs go into action," Erin Keating, executive analyst at Cox Automotive, told the Free Press on Tuesday. "Additionally, this time of year is typically a higher performing period as they don't call it the spring bounce for nothing." Morningstar Equity Strategist David Whiston said most automakers will have benefited from a March bounce in sales as consumers wanting to buy before tariffs hit. "So even if the numbers are awesome, it may not matter much in a few months once non-tariffed inventory is sold off dealer lots," Whiston told the Free Press. General Motors also reported Tuesday that its first quarter sales rose 17% compared with the same period last year. GM sold 693,363 vehicles in the first quarter in the U.S., compared with a 1.5% slide one year ago to 594,233 vehicles sold. GM's sales of all electric cars increased 94% to 31,887, making GM the second-largest seller of electric vehicles in the U.S. behind Tesla. Stellantis was also expected to report first-quarter sales results Tuesday. At Ford, the Dearborn-based automaker reported sales of its electrified vehicles and pickups supported most of its gains. In March, F-Series pickup sales rose 38%, driving a first-quarter boost of 24% on sales of 190,389 pickups. When adding sales of the midsize Ranger and smaller Maverick pickups, Ford's total pickup sales came in at 243,317 in the quarter. Ford said total truck sales, which include its vans and pickups, soared 15% to 290,387 vehicles sold in the quarter compared with the year-ago quarter. A standout star was the compact pickup Maverick. With improved availability, it delivered an all-time monthly sales record of 19,008 sold in March, Ford said. For the quarter, total Maverick sales were down slightly at 2.7% to 38,015 compared with 39,061 a year earlier. More: The comeback story of Ford's Ranger pickup and the push to top Toyota Tacoma global sales Cox's Keating said the March surge in Maverick sales makes sense given Ford builds the Maverick at its Hermosillo Assembly plant in Mexico, alongside the Bronco Sport. Both vehicles are then sold in North America and South America. The Maverick is one of Ford's products that could see a price hike because of the 25% tariffs President Donald Trump plans to impose starting Thursday on imported vehicles and parts. "It's a great thing for consumers to have the affordable pickup in stock and to see improved availability," Keating said of the Maverick, which starts at $26,995. "An all-time monthly record for the vehicle reminds us to keep an eye out on some of the most popular, and affordable models as things unfold with tariffs." Dan Ives, managing director at Wedbush Securities remarked on Ford's results, "These are relatively strong numbers for Ford as the F-series showed solid demand in this uncertain backdrop. We would characterize these results as a step in the right direction for (CEO) Jim Farley and Ford." Sales of Ford's electrified vehicles — which includes EVs and hybrids — rose by 25.5% in the quarter to 73,623 sold. Ford said In the first quarter, its electrified vehicles represented 15% of total sales — up 3 percentage points over the same period last year. In January, Ford said that it would extend its program that offers customers who buy or lease an electric vehicle a free home charger and complimentary installation through the end of March. The automaker said this program helped boost Ford's fourth-quarter EV sales. Called the "Ford Power Promise," customers who purchased or leased a Ford Mustang Mach-E, F-150 Lightning or E-Transit Cargo Van customers are eligible. Ford reported it sold 22,550 all-electric vehicles, an 11.5% boost from the year-ago quarter. Ford sold 51,073 hybrid models, a whopping 33% increase from a year earlier. Again, the Maverick was a standout, beginning the year as a bestselling hybrid pickup. Of Maverick's total sales of 38,015, the hybrid powertrain comprised 21,414 sales. Dealers have said the Mustang Mach-E is a hot seller, but hard to get. Ford said it sold 11,607 of the electric SUVs, up 21% from a year-ago, despite limited inventory. On Tuesday, Ford reassured dealers, saying 2025 Mustang Mach-E SUVs are in transit and will make their way to dealer lots in April. Sales of E-Transit electric vans rose 30% in the quarter totaling 3,756, Ford said. Ford SUV sales declined by 16.7% to 201,527 vehicles sold. The biggest part of that decline came from the discontinuation of the Ford Edge. Ford reported it sold 2,078 Edges in the quarter, a 94% decline from 35,157 of the SUVs sold in the year-ago period. Sales of the Expedition and Explorer were also down in the quarter. Ford sold 47,314 Explorers, a 19% decline. It reported selling 13,482 Expedition SUVs, a 37.5% decline. Sales of the Bronco, Bronco Sport, Escape and Mach-E were all up in the quarter. Sales of the Bronco line, including Bronco Sport, totaled 65,958 SUVs, a 19% gain over last year. Ford reported its luxury brand, Lincoln, saw sales decline by 4.7% to 23,731 vehicles sold in the quarter compared with the year-ago period. Sales of the Navigator rose 29.8% to 4,058 in the quarter and sales of the Corsair were almost flat at 6,240 vehicles sold. Finally, Ford said its Ford Pro Intelligence software platform now has nearly 674,000 active subscriptions, based on end of first quarter estimates, up 20% year-over-year. Also customer usage of BlueCruise, the hands-free highway driving technology, at the end of the first quarter, reached about 5 million "cumulative hands-free highway hours driven across Ford and Lincoln." Ford said its dealers provided more than 3.8 million remote service experiences to customers last year and the momentum continued into the first quarter, with services up 11%. These include Mobile Service — in which technicians drive to service a customer's vehicle. It also includes pickup and delivery where a dealer employee picks up, services and returns a customer's vehicle to the customer. Dealers have provided more than 503,822 Mobile Service experiences during the first quarter, a 14.5% increase from a year ago.

At $16,500, Could This 2012 Ford Transit Connect XLT Connect With Your Cash?
According to the seller, today's Nice Price or No Dice Transit Connect "Looks and smells showroom new." Let's decide if its price passes the stink test as well. No one likes a tease. That is abundantly true. It's just totally unfair to tempt us with something only to leave us crestfallen with the discovery that we can't have it. That was much the case with our last outing, which featured a 2005 Subaru Baja with a turbo engine and a manual shifter. That car had been outfitted as an overlander and was shown in the ad with a literal cherry on top in the form of a roof rack tent. That pop-top was not offered in the sale, which made the Baja's $12,750 wholly unpalatable for the vast majority of you once the car's other flaws were considered. The result was an 80 percent No Dice loss. I'm curious: how many of you never considered "living in a van, down by the river" until Chris Farley brought a newfound appeal to such a prospect with his Matt Foley character on SNL? Today, we're going to look at a 2012 Ford Transit Connect XLT Premium Wagon, which is clean enough and sufficiently new-looking that it might actually live up to the posh demands of river-view living. Read more: Ram Will Still Sell You A Brand-New, 16-Year-Old Truck Ford's modern minivan has an interesting history here in America. Introduced here in 2010 after eight years as a Europe-only model, the vans left their Gölcük, Turkey factory as passenger vans with windows and a back seat. Once hitting the docks in Baltimore, Maryland, those elements were stripped out and handed off to the recyclers, replaced by metal walls and no back seat. This was all an attempt to circumvent the 25 percent import tariff (the infamous "Chicken Tax") that had long been levied on light commercial vehicles. Ford spent years in court trying to defend this practice, eventually having its hand forced when declining sales for all sorts of small vans here in the States ended Transit Connect imports entirely. Another interesting bit of Transit Connect history is that the current one, rebadged as the Toureno Connect and still sold outside the U.S., isn't even a Ford at all, but is a re-badged version of VW's entrant in the category, the Caddy van. That's all water under the bridge, or by the river, as it were, since this Transit Connect was first sold. It also didn't suffer the ignominy of having its innards ripped out and its windows boarded over as this model—the XLT Premium Wagon—was sold here as a passenger vehicle and hence avoided the 25 percent tariff from the get-go. Ford's intent with this model was to target taxi services and ride-shares. The model has five seats and seatbelts along with windows all around, but trades the typical minivan third row for a cavernous load area. Those rear seats can be removed to make the cargo space even bigger. Ford only sold the XLT in high-roof, long wheelbase form, so there's plenty of room to spread out and even wear a hat in here. You might want to doff that chapeau in honor of this 30,000-mile XLT's condition, which the ad touts as having "Not a single flaw." This is also a bit more posh than the van versions, having been outfitted with larger alloy wheels, cruise control, and standard AirCon. On the outside, the silver paint appears to be in excellent condition and is nicely complimented by the standard black plastic trim on the wheel arches and rub strips. Sliding doors on both sides provide excellent access to the rear seats—or to remove them. Those seats, along with the front buckets, are upholstered in a funky-patterned cloth fabric. That, and all the interior plastics, show absolutely zero signs of wear. There was only one drivetrain available in these, a 2.0-liter, 236 horsepower Duratec four and four-speed automatic driving the front wheels. It's nothing exciting, but does offer combined mileage in the mid-20s. Per the ad, the van's mechanicals are up to snuff as well, as both engine and gearbox have recently received a full fluid and filter service. Other incentives include a clean title and current registration. The seller calls this an "unusual 2012 Transit Connect," which seems accurate seeing as very few non-commercial versions were sold here and fewer than that have been kept in museum-quality condition as this one seemingly has. Could that make its $16,500 asking price a workable deal What do you say? Is this rare but kinda weird Transit Connect worth that kind of cash? Or is that way too much, even just to honor Chris Farley's memory? You decide! Los Angeles, California, Craigslist, or go here if the ad disappears. Help me out with NPOND.
