THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2022

On a consolidated basis, we posted sales of $9.3 billion for the third quarter of 2022, an increase of 17% over the third quarter of 2021, compared to global light vehicle production that increased 24%. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation and acquisitions net of divestitures, sales increased 27%.

Adjusted EBIT increased to $441 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $229 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase mainly reflected earnings on higher sales, higher favourable commercial settlements and a $45 million provision on engineering service contracts with the automotive unit of Evergrande in the third quarter of 2021, partially offset by higher net production input costs and operating inefficiencies at a facility in Europe.

Income from operations before income taxes increased to $400 million for the third quarter of 2022 compared to $27 million in the third quarter of 2021. Included in income from operations before income taxes were other expense, net items totaling $23 million and $180 million in the third quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively. Excluding other expense, net from both periods, income from operations before income taxes increased $216 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021.

Net income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $289 million for the third quarter of 2022 compared to $11 million in the third quarter of 2021. Included in net income attributable to Magna International Inc. were other expense, net items totaling $19 million after tax and income attributable to non-controlling interests in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $159 million after tax and loss attributable to non-controlling interests in the third quarter of 2021. Excluding other expense, net after tax from both periods, net income attributable to Magna International Inc. increased $138 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021.

Diluted earnings per share was $1.00 in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $0.04 in the comparable period. Adjusted diluted earnings per share was $1.07 compared to $0.56 for the third quarter of 2021.

In the third quarter of 2022, we generated cash from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities of $591 million and used $353 million in operating assets and liabilities. Investment activities for the third quarter of 2022 included $364 million in fixed asset additions, $125 million in investments, other assets and intangible assets and $25 million in private equity investments.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2022

We posted sales of $28.3 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of 4% over the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This compares to global light vehicle production which increased 6% in the first nine months of 2022 compared to the first nine months of 2021. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation and divestitures net of acquisitions, sales increased by 11% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, income from operations before income taxes was $732 million, net income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $497 million and diluted earnings per share was $1.70, compared to $1.4 billion, $1.1 billion and $3.46, respectively, in the first nine months of 2021.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Adjusted EBIT decreased to $1.3 billion and adjusted diluted earnings per share decreased to $3.19.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we generated cash from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities of $1.9 billion and invested $1.1 billion in operating assets and liabilities. Investment activities for the first nine months of 2022 included $931 million in fixed asset additions, $269 million in investments, other assets and intangible assets and $29 million in public and private equity investments.

RETURN OF CAPITAL

During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we paid $125 million in dividends and $180 million to repurchase 3.1 million shares, substantially for cancellation.

Our Board of Directors declared a third quarter dividend of $0.45 per Common Share, payable on December 2, 2022 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on November 18, 2022.

Subject to approval by the Toronto Stock Exchange and New York Stock Exchange, our Board of Directors approved a new Normal Course Issuer Bid (“NCIB”) to purchase up to 28.4 million of our Common Shares, representing approximately 10% of our public float of Common Shares. This NCIB is expected to commence on November 15, 2022 and will terminate one year later.

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 2022 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; 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 deterioration in consumer confidence.

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.

We will hold a conference call for interested analysts and shareholders to discuss our third quarter ended September 30, 2022 results on Friday, November 4, 2022 at 8:00 a.m. ET.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in this press release constitute "forward-looking information" or "forward-looking statements" (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). Any such forward-looking statements are intended to provide information about management's current expectations and plans and may not be appropriate for other purposes. Forward-looking statements may include financial and other projections, as well as statements regarding our future plans, strategic objectives or economic performance, or the assumptions underlying any of the foregoing, and other statements that are not recitations of historical fact. We use words such as "may", "would", "could", "should", "will", "likely", "expect", "anticipate", "believe", "intend", "plan", "aim", "forecast", "outlook", "project", "estimate", "target" and similar expressions suggesting future outcomes or events to identify forward-looking statements. The following table identifies the material forward-looking statements contained in this document, together with the material potential risks that we currently believe could cause actual results to differ materially from such forward-looking statements.
