“We achieved a solid 2016 net income of $4.6 billion, as well as an adjusted pre-tax company profit of $10.4 billion, which was our second best ever – building on the all-time record we had set the year before,” Ford President and Chief Executive Mark Fields said in a statement. “This underscores the substantial progress we are making in expanding our business to be an auto and a mobility company. This year, we’re focused on building on our strengths, transforming underperforming parts of our business and investing in the emerging opportunities that will provide even more profitable growth in the future.”

Ford reaffirmed its previous guidance for this year, as it still expects 2017’s results to be “generally lower than 2016, driven by investments in emerging opportunities.”
