“We continue to mitigate industry headwinds including lower production volumes in each of our core regions. Our ongoing initiatives and results to date reinforce our conviction in our free cashflow outlook this year and beyond. As we continuously seek to optimize value creation, we are resuming share repurchases in the fourth quarter – ahead of our prior plan.”
– Swamy Kotagiri, Magna’s Chief Executive Officer
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024
We posted sales of $10.3 billion for the third quarter of 2024, a decrease of 4% from the third quarter of 2023. The lower sales largely reflects a 4% decrease in global light vehicle production, including 6% lower production in each of North America and China and a 2% decline in Europe. In addition, sales were negatively impacted by the end of production of certain programs, and divestitures, net of acquisitions, partially offset by the launch of new programs and customer price increases to recover certain higher production input costs.
Adjusted EBIT decreased to $594 million in the third quarter of 2024 compared to $615 million in the third quarter of 2023. This mainly reflects reduced earnings on lower sales, higher production input costs net of customer recoveries, and lower equity income. These were partially offset by higher net favourable commercial items, continued 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 and the negative impact of the UAW labour strike during the third quarter of 2023.

Income from operations before income taxes increased to $700 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $538 million in the third quarter of 2023, which includes Other (income) expense, net(2) items and Amortization of acquired intangibles totaling ($160) million and $28 million in the third quarters of 2024 and 2023, respectively. The most significant item in either period was the positive impact of recognizing $196 million of Fisker deferred revenue as the associated agreements were cancelled in the third quarter of 2024. Excluding Other (income) expense, net and Amortization of acquired intangibles from both periods, income from operations before income taxes decreased $26 million in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2023, largely reflecting the decrease in Adjusted EBIT.
Net income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $484 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $394 million in the third quarter of 2023, which includes Other (income) expense, net(2), after tax and Amortization of acquired intangibles totaling $(115) million and $25 million in the third quarters of 2024 and 2023, respectively. Excluding Other (income) expense, net, after tax and Amortization of acquired intangibles from both periods, net income attributable to Magna International Inc. decreased $50 million in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2023.

Diluted earnings per share were $1.68 in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $1.37 in the comparable period. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $1.28, down $0.18 from $1.46 for the third quarter of 2023, including $0.10 due to a higher income tax rate.
In the third quarter of 2024, we generated cash from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities of $785 million and used $58 million in operating assets and liabilities. Investment activities for the third quarter of 2024 included $476 million in fixed asset additions, $115 million in investments, other assets and intangible assets and $1 million in private equity investments.
(2) Other (income) expense, net is comprised of Fisker Inc. [“Fisker”] related impacts (restructuring and impairment of assembly and production assets, the impairment of Fisker warrants, and the recognition of previously deferred revenue), revaluations of certain public company warrants and equity investments, restructuring activities and gain on business combination, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 & 2024. A reconciliation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is included in the back of this press release.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024
We posted sales of $32.2 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $32.3 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a period in which global light vehicle production decreased 1%.
Adjusted EBIT was $1.64 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $1.68 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. This reflects reduced earnings on lower sales, higher production input costs net of customer recoveries, reduced earnings on lower assembly volumes, acquisitions, net of divestitures, during or subsequent to the first nine months of 2023, and lower equity income. These were partially offset by continued productivity and efficiency improvements, including lower costs at certain underperforming facilities, higher net favourable commercial items, and lower net engineering costs, including spending related to our electrification and active safety businesses.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, income from operations before income taxes was $1.16 billion, net income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $806 million and diluted earnings per share were $2.81, decreases of $135 million, $136 million, and $0.48, respectively, each compared to the first nine months of 2023.

Article content
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 Outlook 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.

Article content
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.

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.
This press release together with our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Position and our Interim Financial Statements are available in the Investor Relations section of our website at www.magna.com/company/investors and filed electronically through the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval + (SEDAR+) which can be accessed at http://www.sedarplus.ca as well as on the United States Securities and Exchange Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System (EDGAR), which can be accessed at www.sec.gov.
