THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023

We posted sales of $11.0 billion for the second quarter of 2023, an increase of 17% from the second quarter of 2022, which compares to a 15% increase in global light vehicle production, including 14%, 13% and 21% higher production in North America, Europe and China, respectively. In addition to higher global production, our sales benefitted from the launch of new programs and higher sales in our Complete Vehicles segment, while the net weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar negatively impacted sales.

Adjusted EBIT increased to $603 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $358 million in the second quarter of 2022. Our focus on operational excellence and cost initiatives helped drive strong earnings on higher sales. In addition, the EBIT increase reflects losses in our Russian facilities during the second quarter of 2022, and commercial items in the second quarter of 2023 and 2022, which had a net favourable impact on a year over year basis. These were partially offset by higher production input costs net of customer recoveries, higher engineering, launch and other costs, including for new vehicle assembly business, and acquisitions, net of divestitures subsequent to the second quarter of 2022.

Income from operations before income taxes was $483 million for the second quarter of 2023 compared to a loss of $88 million in the second quarter of 2022, which includes Other expense, net(2) of $86 million and $426 million in the second quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively. Excluding Other expense, net from both periods, income from operations before income taxes increased $231 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022.

Net income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $339 million for the second quarter of 2023 compared to a loss of $156 million in the second quarter of 2022, which includes Other expense, net(2), after tax of $91 million and $399 million in the second quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively. Excluding Other expense, net, after tax from both periods, net income attributable to Magna International Inc. increased $187 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022.

Diluted earnings per share increased to $1.18 in the second quarter of 2023, compared to a loss of $0.54 in the second quarter of 2022, and Adjusted diluted earnings per share increased 81% to $1.50 in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $0.83 in the second quarter of 2022.

In the second quarter of 2023, we generated cash from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities of $879 million and used $332 million in operating assets and liabilities. Investment activities for the second quarter of 2023 included $1.48 billion to acquire Veoneer Active Safety, $502 million in fixed asset additions, a $96 million increase in investments, other assets and intangible assets, and $3 million in public and private equity investments.

(2)   Other expense, net is comprised of restructuring and impairment costs and net losses on the revaluation of certain public company warrants and equity investments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 & 2023. The three and six months ended June 30, 2023 also includes impairment of an investment and business acquisition costs. Net Income in Q1 2022 includes a $29 million benefit related to Adjustments to Deferred Tax Valuation Allowances. A reconciliation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is included in the back of this press release.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023

We posted sales of $21.7 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of 14% from the six months ended June 30, 2022, as global light vehicle production increased 10%.

Adjusted EBIT increased to $1.04 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $865 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to earnings on higher sales, productivity and efficiency improvements, including lower costs at certain previously underperforming facilities, and higher equity income, partially offset by higher engineering, launch and other costs, including for new assembly business, higher production input costs net of customer recoveries, and commercial items in the first six months of 2023 and 2022, which had a net unfavourable impact on a year over year basis.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, income from operations before income taxes was $758 million, net income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $548 million and diluted earnings per share was $1.91, increases of $426 million, $340 million, and $1.21, respectively, each compared to the first six months of 2022.

During the first six months ended June 30, 2023, Adjusted diluted earnings per share increased 24% to $2.61 compared to the first six months of 2022.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we generated cash from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities of $1.45 billion and used $673 million in operating assets and liabilities. Investment activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 included $1.48 billion to purchase Veoneer Active Safety, $926 million in fixed asset additions, a $197 million increase in investments, other assets and intangible assets, and $3 million in public and private equity investments.

RETURN OF CAPITAL TO SHAREHOLDERS

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we paid $129 million in dividends.

Our Board of Directors declared a second quarter dividend of $0.46 per Common Share, payable on September 1, 2023 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 18, 2023.

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 2023 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.

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: general economic and political conditions; labour disruptions; free trade arrangements; tariffs; relative currency values; commodities prices; supply chains and infrastructure; availability and relative cost of skilled labour; regulatory considerations, including those related to environmental emissions and safety standards; and other factors. Additionally, COVID-19 can impact vehicle production volumes, including through: mandatory stay-at-home orders which restrict production; elevated employee absenteeism; and supply chain disruptions.

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: interest rates and/or availability of credit; fuel and energy prices; relative currency values; regulatory restrictions on use of vehicles in certain megacities; and other factors. Additionally, COVID-19 can impact vehicle sales, including through mandatory stay-at-home orders which restrict operations of car dealerships, as well as through a deterioration in consumer confidence.


NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES RECONCILIATION

The reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures is as follows:

Income taxes 129   57   187   98 
Adjusted EBIT$603  $358  $1,040  $865 

During the third quarter of 2023, we will revise our calculation of Adjusted EBIT to exclude the amortization of acquired intangible assets (primarily customer relationships and technology). We believe that excluding the amortization of acquired intangible assets from Adjusted EBIT will help management and investors in understanding our underlying performance and will improve comparability between our segmented results of operations and our peers.

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 www.sedar.com 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.

We will hold a conference call for interested analysts and shareholders to discuss our second quarter ended June 30, 2023 results on Friday, August 4, 2023 at 8:00 a.m. ET. The conference call will be chaired by Swamy Kotagiri, Chief Executive Officer. The number to use for this call from North America is 1-800-899-2086. International callers should use 1-416-641-6701. Please call in at least 10 minutes prior to the call start time. We will also webcast the conference call at www.magna.com. The slide presentation accompanying the conference call as well as our financial review summary will be available on our website Friday prior to the call.
