IMMEDIATE RELEASE
-----------------
FORD REPORTS THIRD QUARTER LOSS
o European turnaround continues.
o North American restructuring underway.
o Balance sheet remains strong with $15.2 billion of cash.
DEARBORN, Mich., Oct. 17 - Ford Motor Company [NYSE: F] today reported a net
loss of $692 million, or 38 cents per diluted share, in the third quarter of
2001. Excluding special items, Ford lost $502 million, or 28 cents per share.
Ford earned $994 million, or 50 cents a share, before special items in the third
quarter of 2000.
Ford's third quarter revenues were $36.55 billion, a 9 percent decline from last
year's third quarter. Worldwide vehicle unit sales in the 2001 third quarter
were 1,513,000, down 10 percent.
"This was a difficult quarter, as our results were affected by an uncertain and
slowing U.S. economy, compounded by the tragic events of Sept. 11," said Jacques
Nasser, president and CEO. "To address these challenging times we have taken
several steps this year to strengthen our competitiveness. We expect to announce
further actions in December. "
Despite the near-term challenges, Ford continues to benefit from the strongest
lineup of brands and products in its history. This will be the 15th year in a
row that Ford Division is the best-selling brand of cars and trucks in the U.S.
These include the F-Series full-size pickup
-2-
truck, Explorer and Escape SUVs, and Taurus, Focus and Mustang cars. Earlier
this month, the Escape set a calendar-year sales record for small SUVs.
In the third quarter, Ford launched the Ford Thunderbird and Jaguar X-Type in
the U.S., and introduced the Ford Fiesta in Europe. Other new products due in
the U.S. this year include the Land Rover Freelander, Lincoln Blackwood,
Focus ZX5 and Th!nk Neighbor.
Third quarter 2001 operating results exclude a previously disclosed non-cash
charge of $199 million, or 11 cents per share, for the write-down of certain
investments in e-commerce and automotive-related ventures. They also exclude a
non-cash credit of $9 million, or about 1 cent a share, for the accounting
standard on hedging and derivatives. Third quarter 2000 operating earnings
exclude a one-time charge of $106 million, or 5 cents per share, related to the
Land Rover acquisition.
The following results exclude special items in both years:
AUTOMOTIVE OPERATIONS
Worldwide automotive operations lost $877 million in the third quarter, compared
to a profit of $497 million year ago. Worldwide automotive revenues were $28.55
billion, compared with $32.58 billion a year ago.
Automotive gross cash at Sept. 30 totaled $15.2 billion, including $2.2 billion
of pre-funding employee benefit expenses through a Voluntary Employee
Beneficiary Association (VEBA) trust.
North America: The third quarter loss in North America was $849 million.
Earnings in the 2000 third quarter were $782 million. The decline was primarily
a result of lower unit sales volume, down 171,000 units or 15 percent, from last
year, and significantly higher marketing costs.
-3-
Europe: Ford lost $24 million in the third quarter in Europe, compared to a loss
of $221 million a year ago. Several new Ford brand vehicles, including the
Mondeo, Transit and Maverick, contributed to the improved results.
South America: Ford operations in South America lost $56 million, compared to a
loss of $64 million a year ago. Results from the region continue to be affected
by weak economic conditions in Brazil and Argentina.
Rest-of-world: Operations from the rest of the world earned a profit of $52
million, compared to break-even results in the 2000 third quarter.
FORD CREDIT
Ford Credit earned $389 million in the third quarter, up from $386 million a
year ago.
HERTZ
Hertz reported a third quarter profit of $26 million. Hertz earned $143 million
in the third quarter a year ago. The decline is attributable to lower volume
after the events of Sept. 11, as well as slowing economic conditions and a
reduction in related business and personal travel.
OUTLOOK
"The U.S. economy continues to be marked by uncertainty, making it difficult to
predict future vehicle sales demand. However, we believe total U.S. sales for
2001 will be in the range of 16.5-17 million units," Nasser said.
"Our strong brands and great products, as well as considerable financial
strength and flexibility, will help us in these difficult times. We are focused
on managing through the present volatile environment and positioning ourselves
for a higher level of performance in the future," Nasser said.

Investors can hear a review of third quarter results by Martin Inglis, chief
financial officer, on the Internet at www.streetevents.com or
www.streetfusion.com. The presentation will start at 9 a.m. EDT, Oct. 17.
Ford Motor Company is the world's second largest automaker, selling vehicles in
200 markets and with approximately 345,000 employees on six continents. Its
automotive brands include Aston Martin, Ford, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lincoln,
Mazda, Mercury and Volvo. Its automotive-related services include Ford Credit,
Hertz and Quality Care.

1. Financial Statements - The financial data presented herein are unaudited,

4. Discontinued Operation - On June 28, 2000, Ford distributed 130 million
shares of Visteon Corporation ("Visteon"), which represented its 100%
ownership interest, by means of a tax-free spin-off in the form of a
dividend on Ford Common and Class B Stock. Ford's financial statements
reflect Visteon as a "discontinued operation".
5. Value Enhancement Plan - On August 7, 2000, the Company announced the final
results of its recapitalization, known as the Value Enhancement Plan
("VEP"). Under the VEP, Ford shareholders exchanged each of their old Ford
Common or Class B shares for one new Ford Common or Class B share, as the
case may be, plus, at their election, either $20 in cash, 0.748 additional
new Ford Common shares, or a combination of $5.17 in cash and 0.555
additional new Ford Common shares. As a result of the elections made by
shareholders under the VEP, the total cash elected was $5.7 billion and the
total number of new Ford Common and Class B shares that became issued and
outstanding was 1.893 billion. As a result of the VEP, approximately $1.2
billion was transferred from capital stock to capital in excess of par
value of stock.
In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, prior period
shares and earnings per share amounts were not adjusted.
6. Income Per Share of Common and Class B Stock - The calculation of diluted
income per share of Common and Class B Stock takes into account the effect
of obligations, such as stock options, considered to be potentially
dilutive. Basic and diluted income per share were calculated using the

products and related assembly and engineering facilities. It does not

European Charges - Following an extensive business review of the Ford
Brand operations in Europe, the Company recorded a pre-tax charge in
Automotive cost of sales of $1,568 million in the second quarter of 2000.
This charge included $1.1 billion for asset impairments and $468 million
for restructuring costs. The effect on after-tax earnings was $1,019
million.
