 year – the second consecutive year this margin has been 10 percent or greater. Reduced losses in 2016 by $0.6 billion during the year. Without the negative $0.3-billion impact of Brexit, GM would have achieved its objective of breakeven for the year. Q4 and CY results include strong China equity income of $0.5 billion and $2.0 billion, respectively. Lower costs contributed to $0.2-billion year-over- year improvement during 2016. In 2016, posted record revenues of $9.6 billion and record 2016 EBT- adj. of $0.9 billion. Earning assets grew 36 percent to about $77 billion, supporting expected future earnings growth. “Solid results in the fourth quarter capped another record year of earnings and beat the commitments we outlined for 2016. We’ll stay focused on delivering results that will enable us to return capital and create more shareholder value.” – Chuck Stevens, Executive Vice President and CFO Q4 RESULTS OVERVIEW Fourth-quarter 2016 net income of $1.8 billion includes a net loss from special items of $0.1 billion, and an unfavorable $0.3 billion foreign exchange impact, compared to the prior year. Fourth-quarter 2015 net income of 
 $6.3 billion included a net gain from special items of $4.0 billion, primarily related to the reversal of deferred tax asset valuation allowances in Europe. Fourth-quarter 2016 EBIT-adjusted of $2.4 billion includes an unfavorable $0.5 billion foreign exchange impact, compared to the prior year. FOURTH-QUARTER RESULTS


 
2016 2015 Cash and Current Marketable Securities 21.6 20.3 Total Auto Liquidity 35.6 32.5 LIQUIDITY ($B) GM’s 2016 year-end global underfunded position was $18.3 billion, down from $21.2 billion at the end of 2015. The year-end global pension obligation of $92.9 billion was about 80-percent funded. The company’s 2016 year-end U.S. defined-benefit pension plan underfunded position was $7.2 billion, down from $10.4 billion at the end of 2015. The year-end U.S. defined-benefit pension plan obligation of $68.8 billion was about 90-percent funded.   Based on current assumptions, GM doesn’t expect to make significant, mandatory contributions to its U.S. qualified pension plans for the next five years. PENSION UPDATE Returned $4.8 billion to shareholders in 2016 through share buybacks of $2.5 billion and dividends of $2.3 billion. Since 2012, GM has returned more than $18 billion, which represents more than 90 percent of available free cash flow to shareholders during the 2012-2016 period. CAPITAL RETURN For the year ended Dec. 31, 2016, GM sold a record 10 million vehicles around the world, up 1.2 percent from 2015. In Q4, GM sold 2.78 million vehicles, up 3.3 percent compared to Q4 2015. December 2016 global volume of 1.05 million units was the highest in the company’s history, capping the fourth consecutive record year for global deliveries. For the full year, GM sold 3.04 million vehicles in the U.S. and increased retail share 0.5 percentage points – more than any full-line automaker. In China, deliveries increased 7.1 percent to a record 3.87 million vehicles. In Europe, Opel/ Vauxhall posted a 4.0-percent sales increase. For more details on GM’s global sales, click here. GLOBAL VEHICLE SALES Led by strong gains in midsize pickups, small crossovers and large SUVs, Chevrolet was the fastest- growing U.S. brand in 2016, gaining 0.5 percentage points of U.S. retail market share. Cadillac volume in China rose 
 46 percent to 116,406 – the first time it has eclipsed 100,000 in China during a single year – driving global brand sales up 11 percent to a 30-year high. In 2016, Opel/Vauxhall improved market share in 18 of 22 European markets, including Germany, led by the European Car of the Year, Opel Astra, which was up more than 
 25 percent versus 2015. Crossover momentum: Chevrolet Trax and Buick Encore combined retail sales in the U.S. increased 28 percent in 2016. In 2017, GM plans to launch the all-new Chevrolet Equinox and Traverse, and GMC Terrain.

Exhibit 99.2

Exhibit 1
General Motors Company and Subsidiaries
Supplemental Material
(Unaudited)

General Motors Company's (GM) non-GAAP measures include earnings before interest and taxes adjusted for special items, presented net of noncontrolling interests (EBIT-adjusted), earnings per share (EPS)-diluted-adjusted, return on invested capital-adjusted (ROIC-adjusted) and adjusted automotive free cash flow. GM's calculation of these non-GAAP measures 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 these non-GAAP measures has limitations and should not be considered superior to, in isolation from, or as a substitute for, related U.S. GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures have not been audited or reviewed by GM's independent auditors.

These non-GAAP measures allow management and investors to view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons and benchmark performance between periods and among geographic regions to understand operating performance without regard to items we do not consider a component of our core operating performance. Furthermore, these non-GAAP measures allow 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 ROIC-adjusted. Management uses these measures in its financial, investment and operational decision-making processes, for internal reporting and as part of its forecasting and budgeting processes. Further, our Board of Directors uses these and other measures as key metrics to determine management performance under our performance-based compensation plans. For these reasons we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful for our investors.

EBIT-adjusted is used by management and can be used by investors to review GM's consolidated operating results because it excludes automotive interest income, automotive interest expense and income taxes as well as certain additional adjustments that are not considered part of our core operations. Examples of adjustments to EBIT include but are not limited to impairment charges related to goodwill, impairment charges on long-lived assets and other exit costs resulting from strategic shifts in our operations or discrete market and business conditions; costs arising from the ignition switch recall and related legal matters; and certain currency devaluations associated with hyperinflationary economies. For EBIT-adjusted and our other non-GAAP measures, once we have made an adjustment in the current period for an item, we will also adjust the related non-GAAP measure in any future periods in which there is an impact from the item.

EPS-diluted-adjusted is used by management and can be used by investors to review GM's consolidated diluted earnings per share results on a consistent basis. EPS-diluted-adjusted is calculated as net income attributable to common stockholders-diluted less certain adjustments noted above for EBIT-adjusted and gains or losses on the extinguishment of debt obligations on an after-tax basis as well as redemptions of preferred stock and certain income tax adjustments divided by weighted-average common shares outstanding-diluted. Examples of income tax adjustments include the establishment or reversal of significant deferred tax asset valuation allowances.

ROIC-adjusted is used by management and can be used by investors to review GM's investment and capital allocation decisions. GM defines ROIC-adjusted as EBIT-adjusted for the trailing four quarters divided by average net assets, which is considered to be the average equity balances adjusted for average automotive debt and interest liabilities, exclusive of capital leases; average automotive net pension and other postretirement benefits (OPEB) liabilities; and average automotive net income tax assets during the same period.

Adjusted automotive free cash flow is used by management and can be used by investors to review the liquidity of GM's automotive operations and to measure and monitor our performance against our capital allocation program and evaluate our automotive liquidity against the substantial cash requirements of our automotive operations. GM measures adjusted automotive free cash flow as automotive cash flow from operations less capital expenditures adjusted for management actions, primarily related to strengthening its balance sheet, such as prepayments of debt and discretionary contributions to employee benefit plans.

(b)
GM's automotive operations' interest income and interest expense, Maven, corporate expenditures including autonomous vehicle-related engineering and other costs and certain nonsegment specific revenues and expenses are recorded centrally in Corporate.
(c)
These adjustments were excluded because of the unique events associated with the ignition switch recall. These events included the creation of the ignition switch recall compensation program, as well as various investigations, inquiries, and complaints from various constituents.
(d)
These adjustments were excluded because of the significant restructuring of our Thailand operations and the strategic actions taken to focus on the production of pick-up trucks and SUVs.
(e)
This adjustment was excluded because of the devaluation of the Venezuela Bolivar Fuerte (BsF), our inability to transact at the Complementary System of Foreign Currency Administration (SICAD) rate to obtain U.S. Dollars and the market restrictions imposed by the Venezuelan government.

(a)
Refer to the reconciliation of Net income attributable to stockholders under U.S. GAAP to EBIT-adjusted on the preceding page for the details of each individual adjustment.
(b)
The tax effect of each adjustment is determined based on the tax laws and valuation allowance status of the jurisdiction in which the adjustment relates.
(c)
These adjustments primarily consist of the tax benefit related to the valuation allowance reversal in Europe. The adjustment was excluded because valuation allowance reversals are not considered part of our core operations.

We define return on equity (ROE) as Net income attributable to stockholders for the trailing four quarters divided by average equity for the same period. Management uses average equity to provide comparable amounts in the calculation of ROE.

For the year ending December 31, 2017 GM expects to continue to generate strong consolidated financial results including improved net sales and revenue, EBIT-adjusted and EBIT-adjusted margins that equal or exceed the corresponding amounts in 2016, ROIC-adjusted of greater than 25%, Automotive operating cash flow of approximately $15 billion, adjusted automotive free cash flow of approximately $6 billion and EPS-diluted and EPS-diluted-adjusted of between $6.00 and $6.50. GM does not consider the potential future impact of adjustments on the expected financial results. The company expects these financial results in part to be driven by favorable shifts in mix for our new or refreshed product launches, including crossovers.

Vehicle Sales

GM presents both wholesale and retail vehicle sales data to assist in the analysis of its revenue and market share. GM does not currently export vehicles to Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan or Syria. Accordingly, these countries are excluded from industry sales data and corresponding calculations of GM's market share.

Wholesale vehicle sales data, which represents sales directly to dealers and others, including sales to fleet customers, is the measure that correlates to GM's revenue from the sale of vehicles, which is the largest component of Automotive net sales and revenue. Wholesale vehicle sales exclude vehicles sold by joint ventures. In the year ended December 31, 2016 46.3% of GM's wholesale vehicle sales volume was generated outside the U.S. The following table summarizes total wholesale vehicle sales of new vehicles by automotive segment (vehicles in thousands):

Retail vehicle sales data, which represents sales to end customers based upon the good faith estimates of management, including sales to fleet customers, does not correlate directly to the revenue GM recognizes during the period. However, retail vehicle sales data is indicative of the underlying demand for GM vehicles. Market share information is based primarily on retail vehicle sales volume. In countries where retail vehicle sales data is not readily available, other data sources such as wholesale or forecast volumes are used to estimate retail vehicle sales to end customers.

Retail vehicle sales data includes all sales by joint ventures on a total vehicle basis, not based on the percentage of ownership in the joint venture. Certain joint venture agreements in China allow for the contractual right to report vehicle sales on non-GM trademarked vehicles by those joint ventures. Retail vehicle sales data includes vehicles used by dealers under courtesy transportation programs and vehicles sold through the dealer registration channel primarily in Europe. This sales channel consists primarily of dealer demonstrator, loaner and self-registered vehicles which are not eligible to be sold as new vehicles after being registered by dealers. Certain fleet sales that are accounted for as operating leases are included in retail vehicle sales at the time of delivery to daily rental car companies. The following table summarizes total retail sales volume, or estimated sales volume where retail sales volume is not available, by geographic region (vehicles in thousands):
