Hi, everyone. Thank you for being here. It's a new day. Our global Ford team is on a brand new path. We appreciate that when you invest in Ford, you're investing in our team. This team is committed to fundamentally transforming our business, growing our margins, our cash flow, and returns. Today is show, not tell time for the Ford team. Let's get right into it. In October, we did three things right away as a team. We reconnected with our enduring purpose as a company. We accelerated the turnaround of our automotive operations, putting in place key strategic decisions, and we developed our growth plan that we call Ford+. Our team is united in service of a larger purpose, to help build a better world where every person is free to move and pursue their dreams. That's why this leadership team comes to work every day, and it's also the backbone of our growth case. Let's be honest, before we could talk about growth plans, we first had to earn your confidence back. In recent years, our financial performance hasn't been at an acceptable level. In the past few quarters, we've made a lot of progress. We're running a much tighter ship, and we're taking the tough choices and decisions to restructure and redesign our business. We're now firmly on track to reach 8% adjusted EBIT margins globally. North America has proven its earning power and has continued to target 10%. Europe has realigned its portfolio and is on track to reach 6%. In fact, after losing an average of $2 billion a year outside of North America in the past three years in a row, our overseas markets turned $500 million profit in the first quarter. That's table stakes, generating the margins that you expect and the cash flow that we need to scale our business. Scaling our electric business, scaling our commercial business, scale Ford to be a growth company. Ford is transforming from a traditional OEM build-and-sell transaction model to a lifelong, always-on customer relationship. A software and data-driven company that treats our customers like their family. For Ford, it's no longer just about the vehicle. Now, it's the vehicle plus constant over-the-air updates, off-road navigation, uptime and productivity tools for our commercial customers. Plus charging plans with the FordPass app, home install squads, partial and full autonomy, and so much more. For too long, auto companies have asked our customers to interrupt their lives and come to us to shop, buy, and even repair. Now, with digital vehicles, we're changing the relationship, bringing service to the customer, like pickup and drop-off, mobile service units, depot charging for our commercial customers, and much more. Our new electric vehicles, Mustang Mach-E, that beautiful new E-Transit, the F-150 Lightning, are all green shoots of our Ford+ business model. They're iconic vehicles that only Ford could build, but they're fully electric, and most importantly, they're fully digital. On the Mustang Mach-E, for example, we can update the entertainment experience with Alexa or a sketch feature. It's a big difference-maker. Here's our investment thesis for Ford+. The digital transformation of the auto industry now enables us to leverage our strong foundation, add new capabilities, deepen loyalty with our customers, and scale our growth. Ford's approach to the auto revolution is this, an always-on relationship with our customers. Digitally powered, built off a strong foundation of those iconic vehicles, service, and technology that people love and trust. It's that simple. Not many companies have the iconic suite of valuable nameplates like we do at Ford. We have that incredible F-Series, the Mustang, the Transit globally, the Ranger globally, the Puma in Europe, the Navigator. The portfolio is expanding with the Bronco family and other new entries you haven't heard about yet. This is the best lineup we've had in decades at Ford. We're focused on what we're good at, and we're doubling down on the segments where we know the customers deeply. We remain strong across important global markets. We're the world's leader in commercial vehicles, the leader in North America trucks, and Mustang is the best-selling sports car on the planet. We're building a world-class team. We're adding lots of new talent in key areas. Our dealer network around the world can be a huge advantage to us, especially in commercial vehicles, as we continue to make the shopping, buying, and service simpler and online. Ford Credit, our well-run captive finance company, is undergoing its own digital transformation to support commercial and retail customers. To this strong foundation I just described, we're adding new capabilities that are key to delivering Ford+. The centerpiece is our new tech stack. We spent the last several years investing in the compute network and connectivity of our vehicles, and we're pleased to share today that our tech stack, BlueOval Intelligence, is here. This is the next generation of Ford technology, enabling our vehicles to be fully connected and updated, software-defined vehicles that get more and more capable over time. We said today it's all about show, not tell. BlueOval Intelligence is in the Mustang Mach-E and the F-150 Lightning, which means that the vehicles can listen and learn and rapidly improve. We can update capability using power-ups such as BlueCruise, unlike many of our competitors today who can only upgrade their entertainment features. Through a central compute, we're connected to the cloud and able to deliver unique features without having to change the physical hardware. With our in-house talent, we built in the foundational elements that are reusable across our portfolio to the integrated electrical power distribution, compute, and software stack. Think of it as a constant source of support to our customers through a connected ecosystem. This is a big bet that we believe will leapfrog the current state-of-the-art and is the enabler for our Ford+ business model transformation to capture post-vehicle interactions with the customer and drive reoccurring revenues for Ford. When you add together our foundational strength and enhanced capabilities, you get an expanded TAM, value creation, new growth opportunities well beyond where we are today. The team will deep dive in three critical areas: electric, commercial vehicles and services, and connected services. We'll update you on AV mobility business at a future meeting. Let me share a few highlights that I'm really excited about at Ford. First, Hau and Lisa will talk about electrification. Our ambition is to lead the electric revolution. We really mean that. We are working on families of iconic battery electrics, Mustangs, Explorers, F-Series, Lincolns. What's exciting is that the move to BEVs allows us to totally reimagine our vehicles and the way we develop them. Removing the engine, the transmission, the driveline, the fuel system, the exhaust, and all the other ICE components frees up design constraints that have dictated the vehicle architecture trade-offs for more than a century. Importantly, this new vehicle approach provides new opportunities to optimize our future lineup for scale and efficiency. Therefore, we increased our investment in electrification to over $30 billion by 2025, including battery development. We expect 40% of the company's global vehicle volume to be fully electric by 2030. Importantly, we can capture equal or improved market share, and our ultimate goal is to deliver higher profitability with our electric vehicles and services compared to today's ICE offerings. One of our big bets is battery technology. We're starting with a lithium-ion battery family named IonBoost. Much like we applied to downsizing and boosting of our ICE engines with EcoBoost, we're developing a unique pouch cell with special chemistry and Ford's own battery control algorithm to best power our larger vehicles, including trucks and our family of SUV BEVs. We expect we'll reduce cost 40% by mid-decade, and Lisa will give you the glide path to that for further improvement as we scale and create new IP. We're also investing in lithium iron phosphate batteries, best suited for our commercial vehicles and customers given their unique duty cycles. Looking ahead, we're investing in solid-state batteries, which are really showing promise. In fact, in addition to our own solid-state R&D, Ford has invested in Solid Power because we believe production-feasible solid-state batteries are within reach in this decade, delivering better range and lower cost for our customers. This morning, we announced Ford Pro, which will redefine the commercial market that we lead around the world. Ford Pro delivers the world's first comprehensive set of products and solutions for commercial customers. We have the most flexible range of gas and electric vans and trucks. You know that. That's what we do. I'm also delighted to share that someone many of you know well, Ted Cannis, has been appointed to run this business of Ford Pro. Ford Pro is a first-to-market commercial vehicle services and distribution business, fully dedicated to the commercial and government customers of all sizes and vocations. It's part of Ford Motor, but will operate as a standalone business. It's one of the most important strategic initiatives at Ford in many, many years. What's new is that we also have the most comprehensive service portfolio. Ford Pro is a one-stop shop to improve productivity, cost of ownership, and uptime. As a vehicle leader, and more importantly, the knowledge leader in this space, only Ford has the capability and scale across the globe to do this. With Blue Oval Intelligence, we provide access for Pro customers to the world's largest digital fleet. We expect Ford Pro to grow from $27 billion in 2019 to $45 billion in revenues by 2025. Our growing expertise in fleet orchestration will also give us an invaluable head start. For the company, the strategic advantages go way beyond growth in revenue and EBIT in commercial. With the large install base, we accelerate our BEV scale, and we learn from the deployment of connected services that create a major advantage as we expand digital ownership experiences to our retail customers. Ford will have about 1 million connected vehicles in the field this year. This capability isn't new to the industry, but Alex will show you how we're going to launch it at scale to reach as many customers as possible. Just a little over a year from now, we'll have more vehicles capable of receiving these wireless updates than Tesla, and that's going to grow to 33 million by 2028. We're being thoughtful about when to invest in creating services and technology in-house versus when to buy and capture the benefits of working with major tech players and riding on their scalable and well-developed platforms. This approach to partnering, combining with clear in-house innovation that differentiates us, is a big deal for Ford. It's increasingly why customers choose Ford. They can get the best-in-class technology that they already are familiar with in a fully integrated experience. An improved Apple CarPlay, incredible Alexa Voice, whole Google Automotive Services, and Baidu in China are going to bring this to life. This means you can take your digital life with you seamlessly into the vehicle, no competitor offers this at scale. We're already deploying experiences in ways that only Ford can. For example, in commercial, driver coaching for our commercial customers, productivity solutions for small and medium-sized business, and off-road navigation and journey planning for our Bronco customers are all coming. Focusing on the ownership experience unlocks a different way to create value for our commercial and retail customers, it will drive reoccurring revenues for Ford. We'll earn better Net Promoter Scores, brand favorability will increase, referrals to friends and family will get even stronger. We reduce churn, drive lower acquisition costs, higher spending among our loyalists. FordPass Rewards is already showing incredible promise. Members choose to service with Ford at a rate nearly double non-members. Connectivity enables us to focus resources on high-value customers and drive reoccurring revenues. Think about the growth opportunities we have, like when vehicle renewals grow beyond today's 62% and we capture our fair share of the parts and service business well beyond our current 33%. Providing this convenience and solving these pain points gives us enormous opportunity to scale our business. Right now, we spend tens of billions of dollars a year in vehicle incentives and marketing our vehicles. As we grow loyalty, we have the potential for significant savings that we can reinvest in growth. This is the biggest opportunity for growth and value creation since Henry Ford started to scale the Model T. Embedded technology means we have the aftersales experience that is more powerful than purchase. We have improved accountability in our day-to-day execution. You can see it in our numbers. We have doubled down in the places where we are strong at Ford. We have a compelling purpose for why we come into work every day. We have a solid Ford+ plan for growth, and we have a committed team in place that can back it up. With that, let's hand it over to Hau in Corktown. Hau? This is a new chapter for Ford. We're leading the electric revolution and taking a software-first approach to build an always-on connection with our customers as part of Ford+, all delivered through our powerhouse franchises, taking the legendary and turning them into something revolutionary. [Presentation] We electrified the world's best-selling sports car. Mustang Mach-E, widely acknowledged as Tesla's first true competitor, was named 2021 North American Utility Vehicle of the Year and has been well-received in Europe and China. Transit, the world's number one cargo van, will be the first all-electric, competitively priced cargo van in North America from a full-line automaker. E-Transit delivers an estimated 40% lower scheduled maintenance cost and lower fuel costs, making it irresistible for commercial customers. There's F-150 Lightning. It's the smartest, most innovative F-150 ever. The F-150 Lightning with the extended range battery targets 563 horsepower and 775 pound-feet of nearly instantaneous torque, more than any previous F-150. It's engineered to take productivity and work to another level with smart technologies like Ford Intelligent Backup Power. If need be, this truck can help power your house during a power outage. We're not stopping there. In fact, we expect 40% of the company's vehicle volume will be fully electric by 2030. That's a massive shift from the low single digits today. Let me be clear. Our goal is to win with BEVs and achieve equal to higher market share in the same high-volume segments and markets that we compete in today with ICE vehicles. Our ultimate goal is to deliver a holistic ecosystem, including services that should allow us to achieve higher profitability over time with BEVs than we do today with ICE vehicles. Our digital ecosystem and resulting network effect will create a first-mover advantage and stickiness for Ford for years to come. This is why we've been so passionate about growing our investment in BEVs and battery technology. $30 billion by 2025. This significant investment in our batteries, vehicle architectures, and key technologies gives Ford the power of a fully integrated system, a system that's built around the customer, always current and always on. Let's start with batteries. Ultimately, the success of BEVs is tied to battery energy density and cost. That's why Ford has been investing to accelerate our battery R&D. We've established Ford Ion Park, our battery center of excellence, to advance battery cell technology and develop the future of high-volume battery manufacturing. We're building on two decades of battery expertise by centralizing a cross-functional team of more than 150 experts to accelerate innovative solutions across the entire value chain. This team has analyzed hundreds of battery chemistries from numerous suppliers, innovative startups, and research universities, all informing our technology roadmap for the next generation of lithium-ion chemistries and anticipating what lies beyond. We're applying these learnings to deliver our next generation of battery technology, named IonBoost+, which we believe delivers the highest energy density of any cell of its type. This cell chemistry, coupled with Ford's proprietary battery control algorithm featuring high-accuracy sensing technology, delivers higher efficiency and range for customers. Our pouch cell format is unique and ideal for powering larger vehicles and performance products. It delivers the capabilities customers expect and scales efficiently across our product lines. At the same time, we know that even battery cell needs will differ by customers. For example, we're developing a different battery cell optimized for our commercial vehicles. IonBoost Pro is a lithium iron phosphate chemistry, which costs less and is better suited for duty cycles that require less range, where batteries are fully drained every use cycle. Both are key requirements for commercial customers. You'll hear more from Ted Cannis about our deep learnings about these customers in a bit. We also have been investing in solid-state battery technology. Our additional investment in Solid Power this month underscores our belief that production-feasible solid-state batteries are within reach in this decade. Solid Power's sulfide-based solid electrolyte and silicon-based anode chemistry delivers impressive battery improvements in performance, including increased range, lower cost, more vehicle interior space, and better value and greater safety for our customers. Also meaningful, Solid Power's unique chemistry can be built using the same manufacturing process as existing lithium-ion batteries, facilitating a seamless technology transition and allowing us to reuse about 70% of our capital investment in lithium-ion manufacturing lines. Now, just as we've diversified our investment in battery technology, we've also thoughtfully engineered Ford's flexible vehicle architectures. Today, five flexible vehicle architectures underpin Ford's global product portfolio, taking into account that European customers want smaller vehicles, North Americans love large trucks and utilities, and our commercial customers worldwide want capable heavy-duty trucks and vans. Moving to BEVs allows us to reimagine these architectures, providing an unprecedented opportunity to optimize our lineup for scale, efficiency, and as Lisa will explain, more profitability. We can share common items, battery cells, battery management systems, motors, gearboxes, motor controller units across different kinds and sizes of BEVs. Plus, when coupled with our catalog of cross-vehicle technologies like seats, electrical architectures, cross-car beams, we can share up to 80% of the vehicle's value across our portfolio. Just as our customers aren't all the same, our BEV vehicle architectures won't be either. Today, we're pleased to preview our rear-wheel drive, all-wheel drive BEV flexible architecture. It will deliver a whole new generation of high-volume vehicles with even better returns because it supports higher production scale. Our architecture approach still allows us to share parts across vehicles right down to the same pouch we use on F-150 Lightning and E-Transit. Rest assured, while some of the core technologies are shared, the vehicles themselves and the experiences they create for Ford and Lincoln customers will be very different. Let me show you. Our new rear-wheel drive, all-wheel drive BEV flexible architecture will underpin a range of emotive vehicles slated for production between now and 2030, including active lifestyle vehicles with great driving dynamics, cargo vehicles for those who value space and versatility for their commercial needs, pickups delivering legendary Built Ford Tough capability on mid-size trucks, rugged SUVs for our adventure-seeking customers, and high-margin, high-demand larger two- and three-row SUVs for families around the world, like Explorer and Lincoln Aviator, all from this one flexible architecture. Plus, I'm pleased to announce that we'll also deliver a scalable, dedicated BEV architecture optimized for our next-gen full-size pickup trucks and utilities. It's a smart investment. In the U.S. alone, we expect one-third of the full-size pickup segment to go fully electric by 2030, which represents more than 800,000 vehicles annually. Plus, we'll see 70% of the full-size bus and van industry going electric by 2030. That's more than 300,000 vehicles annually. Why are we so bullish on flexible architectures built for purpose? We know it works. C2 is the foundation for 12 current and future ICE and hybrid nameplates, allowing us to deliver maximum choice for customers while simplifying our engineering, purchasing, and manufacturing operations. Where do Volkswagen MEB platform and Rivian skateboard fit in? In Europe, it's more efficient to partner with Volkswagen for the architecture of our small and mid-size BEVs. After all, One Ford taught us that while global scale enables engineering efficiencies, it's ultimately local scale that delivers significant material cost savings. This is the smarter play here. As for Rivian, we're learning from their perspective as an agile startup. Both are adding value. Speaking of value, perhaps the most revolutionary element of our shared technology is the introduction of our next-generation tech stack called BlueOval Intelligence. Next-gen BlueOval Intelligence encompasses our software architecture, cloud and edge networks, vehicle electrical architecture, power distribution, onboard computers, memory, and sensing hardware. We've redesigned our in-vehicle electrical architecture to enable our software-first approach. This includes migrating the computing and data workload from standalone electronic modules to a centralized processing center with significantly more compute power and memory. This migration will enable physical sensors and actuators on the vehicle to be separate from the logic and data they consume and produce. This allows us to update their performance via over-the-air software updates without changing the hardware. Electrical power will be handled differently as well because a smart, updatable vehicle may require power in select places even when the vehicle is not being operated. Our tech stack will enable a variety of smart customer features. BlueOval Intelligence allows us to reduce design complexity in the vehicles and preserve the flexibility that we need to meet the diversity of our retail and commercial customers' needs without changing hardware, saving time and money. Ford and third parties can build services and experience on this to create the benefits of an always-on relationship, ever-improving, seamless interactions, vehicles that get to know you and improve over time. We're also partnering with Google to access their network of app developers and utilize their machine learning, AI, and analytics expertise to continuously improve our business. I want to be clear, this is not some future aspiration. This transformation is already underway at Ford. Our recently launched Mustang Mach-E, F-150, and Lightning already feature fully network architecture and over-the-air update capability. That means that the current Mach-E and F-150 vehicles are even better today than they were when customers drove them off the lots. The opportunity to keep delivering these kinds of improvements grow exponentially. Ford will have about 1 million connected vehicles in the field this year, and that number grows to 33 million by 2028. Ted, Hans, and Alex will detail later how we're utilizing this revolutionary tech stack to deliver end-to-end customer experiences for retail and commercial customers as we bring Ford+ to life. First, though, I'll turn it over to Lisa Drake, who will walk you through how the electric revolution will translate into increased profitability for Ford. Thank you, Hau. The transition to an electric future represents one of the biggest opportunities to grow our business Ford has seen in decades. Our competitive advantage lies in Ford's operational strengths, pricing power, as well as procurement and manufacturing scale. These fundamentals provide the profit-generating ability that is enabled by our distinct architecture strategy Hau outlined, our unmatched tech stack capability that Alex will showcase, and our decades of EV experience. Combined, these are game-changers for us and underpin the growth opportunity we see for Ford. Let's start with Ford's pricing power. Launching our BEVs with our most iconic brands allows us to take their strengths and desirability to a whole new level. F-150 and Transit have consistently outperformed their key competitors in both share and revenue, reflecting not only exceptional product execution and deep understanding of our customer needs, but also the power of the Ford brand. Our opportunity going forward is to build on this by helping people understand how electrifying what they already love delivers even more performance, more capability, and more productivity with zero emissions. Performance like the targeted zero to 60 time of 3.5 seconds on the Mach-E GT Performance Edition, or the bidirectional power capability of Ford Intelligent Backup Power on the F-150 Lightning. Not only should this help us continue outperforming the competition in high-margin segments like full-size pickups and commercial vans, it will bring new customers to Ford. We are already seeing this with Mustang Mach-E. Approximately 70% of Mach-E orders came from new customers coming out of other brands. This exceeded our expectations, proving we can grow our brand by electrifying our icons. The mix of the Mach-E orders is very strong, with 90% high series premium vehicles and more than 80% long-range batteries, again exceeding our forecast. To delight our F-150 Lightning customers, we've been very intentional about series and pricing strategies. We're offering four series levels for different kinds of customers, including some designed to attract all new customers, not only to our F-150 franchise, but more importantly to the Ford brand. To provide some context, just two percentage points of share conquest in this segment is worth nearly $2 billion of revenue growth. Our F-150 Lightning is designed to complement our powerhouse gas and diesel business, not simply just replace it. We'll ensure that those new and existing commercial customers who rely on incredible value and total cost of ownership in their work truck but want zero emissions have a solution from Ford starting under $40,000. We want to be clear. In the BEV era, Ford will not cede truck leadership to anyone. Our goal for our future F-Series franchise is to be as profitable as it is today, even with our acceleration into full-size pickup BEVs. Just as important as pricing power is our relentless focus on material cost and our ability to deliver this through our procurement scale. As we accelerate our portfolio to electric, we are focusing on three areas of material cost, batteries, non-battery elements of our EV system, and finally, the non-EV parts of our vehicles. First, batteries. We are absolutely committed to designing, engineering, and manufacturing our own batteries. Our global BEV plan calls for over 240 GWh of battery cell capacity by the end of the decade. That's about 10 plants worth of capacity. 140 GWh of this will be required in North America with the balance in the other key regions in Europe and China. Last week, we confirmed that Ford is delivering our own batteries through our joint venture, BlueOval SK. Ford and SK are jointly developing and industrializing at scale battery cells tailored to deliver optimum performance and value specifically for our Ford and Lincoln customers. When we set out with this partnership, our cost ambitions were clear. Deliver a 40% improvement in battery pack costs for our mid-decade product launches. We are on track to be under $100 a kilowatt-hour by 2025. By leveraging technology, manufacturing, and value chain innovations, we have a goal to achieve an $80 per kilowatt-hour target well before the decade ends. We have mapped every step of the value chain, leveraging Ford's massive scale and decades-long relationships with key suppliers. For example, the world's leading cathode material suppliers have been supplying tens of millions of car and truck catalyst coatings to Ford for decades. We know them well. The work we are doing together is just one example of how we'll go deeper in the value chain to deliver cost efficiencies over time. While batteries are exciting to talk about, the non-battery part of the electrification system makes up nearly 20% of the material cost of a BEV. Scale here matters for controlling material cost. Consider this. We write our own software for battery controls, but then use our scale to source the manufacturing of millions of units of battery control modules across all of our electrified vehicles. Another example is the inverter. Our software controls team has developed sophisticated code to deliver highly engineered levels of propulsion efficiency. We work with our suppliers to custom develop hardware solutions to house our software algorithm, and we manufacture millions of units at scale, delivering high levels of capital utilization for cost efficiency. These are just two examples. That brings me to where we see the third area of advantage, our current scale of the non-EV parts. This scale often makes us the OEM of choice for technology partners offering new customer features and experience that set Ford apart. Think about F-150 Lightning in this context. The F-150 Lightning will join a family of over 17 million F-Series customers with their trucks on the road today. When we source our next generation models with supplier contracts with nearly 4 million units of volume for an F-Series life cycle, for everything from tires to display screens, we know we are getting the best from our suppliers on cost, quality, and first-mover technology. Contrast that with a startup BEV maker looking to buy 120,000 display screens over the life cycle of their truck. The buying power and scale advantage Ford has on the value of non-EV parts of a pickup truck, nearly 50% of the truck's material cost is sizable. The same holds true for how we look at the cost advantage of electrifying our E-Transit, leaning into the scale of the world's best-selling cargo van. Finally, let's talk about Ford's advantage in our manufacturing flexibility and capability. While others may need time to scale, Ford is ready. Look at the Mustang Mach-E. Media labeled the Mustang Mach-E launch one of the most robust in EV history after we delivered 6,600 vehicles in North America in the first quarter alone. Others might take months or years to hit those kind of production volumes. We did it in one quarter, and we did it on our first launch of an all-new EV. Top hat, platform, battery cell, and electrical architecture. When we saw how high consumer demand was, our deep operational capability kicked in. We secured additional batteries through our strong relationship with LG Energy Solution, and we leveraged our flexible manufacturing system to boost Mach-E's future annual capacity by nearly 70% just two months into production. Just think what this scale of manufacturing flexibility can mean for cost competitiveness when vertically integrating EV components. We've already done this with e-motors, e-axles, battery trays, and battery cell manufacturing development. With BlueOval SK, we will scale quickly manufacturing cells and arrays, and that's just the beginning. Anticipating the shift towards electrification, we've been on this path for several years. Already, we have transformed our Van Dyke Transmission Plant into the Van Dyke Electric Powertrain Center. At this center, we've been making HEV transmissions since 2010. Now we're adding electric axle production at significant scale for our BEVs. We've reused front-wheel drive, high-volume transmission lines and pivoted to high-volume electric axles, which includes in-house manufacture of our own e-motors, coupled with our in-house gear boxes. We already had the location, the equipment, and a very skilled labor force to support the transition into manufacturing EV components, creating a capital efficiency, material cost, and time to market advantage over others just starting in this space. In the transition, we grew the number of jobs as part of the transformation to the Van Dyke Electric Powertrain Center. To summarize, here's why we believe Ford has a winning plan to lead in electrification. Icons no one else has, and all in the heart of volume and profit segments, not small volumes and $100,000 price points. A modern tech stack that is unrivaled in scale and delivers exceptional experiences and services. Fit-for-purpose architectures. We don't believe one size fits all. We have developed multiple cell technologies, and we don't rely on just one cell supplier in our strategy. Fully competitive battery cost, and our competitive advantage is the scale we generate on the rest of the material cost. Millions of battery electric control modules, millions of chargers, millions of inverters, all on the back of our broad HEV, PHEV, and BEV portfolio. We deliver this with highly flexible manufacturing expertise. Lines previously used for sedan transmissions now making HEV transmissions and e-axles. Let me end where Hau started. Our plan is to win in the electric revolution and achieve equal or higher market share in the same high-volume segments and markets that we compete in today. That's Ford's formula to grow profitably and create incredible value with fully electrified vehicles. Hi, I'm Ted Cannis, standing in front of the iconic Michigan Central Station in Corktown, Detroit, which is the centerpiece of a new mobility innovation district where 1.2 million sq ft of commercial space is under construction. As the leader in the commercial segment across large geographies, diverse customer sizes, and the toughest customer use cases, no one understands dynamics like these better than Ford. The needs of commercial customers are very different from retail customers. We focus on our customers' unique vocational needs and provide a full range of trusted vehicles, as well as sales and service to support their business and enhance their productivity. As a result, we have earned a commanding lead in the U.S., with 43% share of the class 1 through 7 commercial full-size truck and van market. That's double the size of our closest brand competitor. As you will soon hear from Hans Schep, General Manager for Ford's Europe commercial business, we are also strong there, leading the European commercial market for the last six consecutive years while consistently growing share. Put simply, Ford owns work. Commercial customers have very specific needs. They demand the right tool for the job, low cost of ownership, high uptime, maximum productivity, employee safety, sustainable solutions, and support. When we say our customers need the right tool for the job, it's because it takes different shapes, sizes, and capabilities to get the job done. Let's look at three use cases you see all the time. If you're going to work on a telephone line, you need a cherry picker, the kind of truck carrying a worker up into the air. If you're doing plumbing, you need racks and bins for your gear and parts. If you're going to garage a van, it needs to be short and low enough to fit. In fact, many vocations require the vehicles to have specific upfits, customizations so that work can be done. In North America, Ford has built a network of nearly 300 Ford-qualified upfitters that are strategically located near our plants and dealers. These capabilities have enabled us to build trusted relationships over many years, which affords us the competitive advantage to design our vehicles alongside upfitters to seamlessly pair with their upfits so there are no surprises during acquisition. Looking at vans in North America, we designed our E-Transit van to be flexible and serve a wide variety of customers with a range of configurations across roof heights and body lengths, something many startups are not able to do. Last mile delivery has been making a lot of headlines, but even with the boom of e-commerce, it only comprises nearly 10% of the U.S. full-size commercial van segment. We can address this customer need too, as well as the needs of larger, more complex vocations, which coincide with where we have the strongest leadership positions. In North America, we have the broadest vehicle portfolio in market with leadership in all the largest truck and van vocations, including service and maintenance, construction, delivery, emergency vehicles, and utility services. We have grown our customer base to nearly 125,000 active commercial and government fleet customers across all vocations and fleet sizes, small, medium, and large, and all of them need a network of support for acquisition, upfit, and service that they can trust. In the U.S., we have over 650 specialized commercial vehicle center dealers, all EV certified, providing us coverage backed by local expertise. To compete effectively in this segment, new entrants would need to complete the prototype phase and actually produce vehicles at rate. Just as importantly, they would need to find the customers, fit them, and convince them that they have better solutions and ownership support throughout the complex fleet life cycle. Meeting the evolving needs of customers also requires trust, breadth and depth of experience, and a wide range of capabilities. To be successful, at least at scale, you need to provide all of them. Our customers now need far more than just the right tool for the job. Our customers need improved data and services that lower their total cost of ownership, increase productivity and uptime, and improve operational safety. In many cases, their vehicles are their business offices. For this, they need trusted, affordable ownership solutions that cover their market areas and keep them running worry-free. More than any other customer segment, our commercial customers will lead the connected and electric vehicle tech transformation because the benefits directly hit their bottom line. With an ever-increasing focus on the environment, many of our customers are now required to deploy sustainable solutions. Earlier, you heard Jim talk about Ford's overall investment thesis and Ford Pro, where Ford vehicles plus connected solutions yield more value for our customers and for Ford. It's more than just the sum of the parts. Today, the landscape is full of fragmented services. Customers just want to work and generate income. They don't want to manage a lot of fleet complexity, which can cut into their margins. We're going to help solve that with connectivity by providing an always-on relationship that weaves the pieces together. [Presentation] Ford Pro is a first-to-market standalone commercial vehicle services and distribution business within Ford. Fully dedicated to commercial customers around the world. Ford Pro delivers the most comprehensive products and solutions offerings, the widest and most flexible range of internal combustion and battery electric vans and trucks serving virtually every vocation, and the most competitive services portfolio enabled by a fully connected digital platform to help businesses thrive. Ford Pro will offer a range of integrated digital services and support for our commercial customers, including Ford Pro Vehicles, internal combustion and battery electric, Ford Pro Charging, Ford Pro Intelligence, Ford Pro FinSimple, and Ford Pro Service Elite. Ford Pro will enable our business to achieve a greater share of wallet, lower acquisition costs with one-stop shop bundled services, higher parts profits, sticky new recurring revenues and profit streams, leadership in commercial electrification, and increased loyalty and higher share. How will Ford Pro address these changing needs and grow our business? One of the biggest changes will be electrification focused on commercial vocations. Workhorses, not show horses. In North America, we'll stake our claim early and lead with our commanding position. We are the first OEM to bring to market both an electric van, the E-Transit, and a full-size pickup, the F-150 Lightning Pro, dedicated for commercial use. In 2020, customers who included both Transit and F-150 in their total purchases accounted for over 40% of our commercial sales in North America. These vehicles leverage the scale and commonality of our internal combustion vehicles. Most of our commercial customers turn over 10% to 15% of their fleet per year. They will need to operate, monitor, and service mixed fleets for many years with minimal complexity. We have made upfitting seamless so our customers can leverage Ford's qualified upfitter network. Just like everything else, commercial customers will buy no more than what they need, which includes batteries. That's why our electric vehicles are targeted directly at commercial customers and developed so they can be easily integrated into mixed fleets. There are very few competitors in this space, and to achieve any scale, they would need to rapidly expand their customer base and have a committed battery capacity plan already in place. Starting under $40,000, the F-150 Lightning Pro is full of new solutions for our customers who want more space, connectivity, and productivity, like using exportable power to power their job site. The Built Ford Tough truck has the right four-by-four range to get the job done, with up to target of 300 mi of EPA estimated range. They have been designed with vehicle onboard chargers and include equipment that make it possible to charge overnight on Level 2 AC chargers, which dramatically reduces charging infrastructure costs and protects battery life. Not having to invest in expensive DC chargers and higher cost installations is a big advantage that customers will dig into and appreciate. F-150 Lightning Pro is a game changer for work. As you will hear from Hans, in addition to the E-Transit, we've also announced in Europe the launch of a new 1-ton Transit Custom in 2023, which will be available in battery electric, plug-in hybrid electric, and internal combustion derivatives to offer the right product for every customer. For fleet managers, changes in infrastructure for integrated charging solutions can seem complicated and scary. Ford Pro Charging is going to make commercial charging easy. Companies of all sizes will be able to operate a fleet of electric vehicles. Our internal data reports that the North American depot charging industry will grow to over 600,000 full-size trucks and vans by 2030. We are building new Ford provided depot charging solutions with plans to capture revenue growth of over $1 billion by 2030. Employee home charging solutions will include available hardware and software solutions to manage overnight charging, along with access to energy reports to make driver reimbursement simple. For those rare cases where public charging is necessary, our customers will also have access to America's largest public charging network, Ford Charge Pass, with over 63,000 plugs. Commercial connected services are a big business, with a TAM of $4 billion in 2021 growing to $5.5 billion in 2025 in North America. Ford Pro Intelligence will provide sticky software services for our customers, including command and control features, rich data, and proprietary algorithms linked to deep vehicle insights. Many of these services are available today or rolling out this year in North America and Europe. Telematics, our flagship intelligence tool, allows fleet managers to monitor and control fleets of all makes and models through an interactive digital platform. Telematics Essentials is a complimentary service for our customers. It includes many features, such as monitoring vehicle health data and trouble code alerts. It also makes it easy to upgrade to paid subscriptions and promote service appointments. EV Telematics dashboard and data tools connect electric vehicles to the cloud for fleet customers to manage charging, enable EV alerts, and much more. At the end of the first quarter, we had over 160,000 vehicles enrolled in revenue-generating subscriptions in North America, and we plan to scale across our customer base with millions of vehicles, along with exciting new products to build on our portfolio. These services leverage software scale, built once and multiplied to many customers. It is generating subscription opportunities, higher loyalty, and increased parts profits. Finally, in North America, we're also growing our small and medium commercial financing business with Ford Pro FinSimple. Historically, our financing products have focused on retail customers, but we purpose-built this financing platform for our commercial customers who have been underserved. We are making it all easier with simplified financing and bundled billing of vehicles, services, and charging. That will increase loyalty and share. You can hear Marion Harris, CEO of Ford Credit, talk more about this in additional videos we have already posted. We already have a steady flow of leads from our commercial vehicle centers, and we expect to grow our financing share of these small and medium fleet customers from 10% to 25% by 2025. Above all else, our commercial customers want maximum uptime and low cost of ownership. I'd like to turn it over to Hans to talk more about how the European commercial business will bring differentiated service, targeting 100% customer uptime at an affordable cost. [Presentation] I'm coming to you from our commercial vehicles development lab in London. The commercial vehicles business is at the heart of our European strategy, we have a laser focus to deliver results and help our customers' businesses thrive. As Jim mentioned, we were at the forefront of standing up a dedicated organization for our commercial vehicle customers in 2019. We doubled the team dedicated to commercial vehicles, and by strengthening the resources in every function in Ford and across our partnerships, we have the right expertise in place to execute our strategy and to continue to deliver outstanding products and services to our customers. We've been getting the results. Since 2012, we have moved from number seven in the market to now market leader for the sixth consecutive year. In that timeframe, we nearly doubled our market share to almost 16% in quarter one this year. To expand our leadership position in Europe, we're pushing even further. When it comes to our product portfolio, we're electrifying our entire range and we're leveraging the advantage of our local manufacturing footprint by adding scale. We've recently confirmed that the next generation 1-ton Ford Transit Custom will be built in Kocaeli, Turkey, as part of the Ford-Volkswagen Alliance. We've announced a $300 million investment for a new light commercial vehicle to be produced in Craiova, Romania. Both vehicles will include all-electric versions. For Ford, it's not just about building and selling vans. As commercial vehicle leader in Europe and North America, with Transit the best-selling cargo van around the globe, that's our bread-and-butter business. As you've heard, we'll deliver even more with Ford Pro. It's an always-on organization that brings modern products and services from the ground to the cloud for our customers. Let's look at how we've already started doing that in Europe. Enhancing customer productivity starts with our focus on uptime and service. Here in Europe, we've just launched FORDLiive, a connected uptime system to keep our customers' vehicles on the road. This has absolutely been the most important launch for us this year. It directly translates back to the customer, maximizing their productivity by reducing downtime by up to 60%. FORDLiive is driven by connectivity with cloud-based solutions. It has three core elements: the easy and reliable data exchange between customer vehicles, Ford Pro Commercial Vehicle Center dealerships, and dedicated FORDLiive customer care centers. We are seeing its benefits already. This morning, we know we had 631 vehicles off the road awaiting parts in Europe. The FORDLiive processes connect the teams together real-time to resolve these unwanted delays immediately. This is what FORDLiive is all about. We have the right processes in place, connected, working together, giving more time on the road and at the work sites for the customer, increasing their productivity, all contributing to our ambition of delivering 100% uptime. They will not want to be with anybody else. FORDLiive is defining the standard for connectivity services in Europe and will be enabled by 1 million connected commercial vehicles on the road by 2022, with the vehicle park expanding to over 3 million in 2026. Ford Pro services are made available by Ford+ a multitude of partners across the entire value chain. One example of such a partnership is Ford Fleet Management, a joint venture with ALD Automotive. In Europe, large but also many medium-sized fleets use leasing companies to finance their vehicles. Ford Fleet Management brings connected uptime services together with leasing and financing into bespoke productivity solutions for a wide range of fleet customers. Ford Fleet Management is already live in the U.K., gaining traction in the sector, and will be rolled out to other European markets soon. Bespoke fleet solutions delivered by Ford Fleet Management and our connected FORDLiive uptime system are just two examples of how we've already developed services to redefine the commercial vehicle business in Europe under Ford Pro. We aren't stopping there. Together with the North American team, we are developing a series of initiatives to future-proof the commercial vehicle business, powered by electrification, charging solutions, autonomous vehicle development, and how fleets own and operate our vehicles. As we fulfill more and more of our customers' productivity needs, we will dramatically accelerate Ford's growth potential in the European market. Ford is Europe's leading commercial vehicle brand. Ford Pro will enable us to be the undeniable business partner of choice for Europe's commercial customers, and with that, bring Ford's business to the next level. Ted, back to you. Thanks, Hans. In North America, we are building a dedicated service network with our dealers to support the demand from our commercial customers and our new business model. We are building 120 Ford Pro Service Elite hubs across the U.S. with large bays, extended hours, and rapid service turnaround. These dedicated facilities are structured to provide customized service at a lower cost, both electric and internal combustion. Second, we're expanding our fleet of Ford Pro Service Elite mobile vehicles. By 2025, we will have 1,200 mobile service vehicles that can meet customers where they are. This saves customers time and money shuttling vehicles to service. Our ambition is big. We plan to increase our North American parts revenue by over $750 million by 2025, one of the high-margin growth components of our Ford Pro plan. In summary, Ford Pro will be a new business tasked with providing global physical and digital solutions for battery, electric, and internal combustion vehicles that will create more value for our customers and Ford. Ford Pro will grow the top line from a $27 billion business in North America and Europe in 2019 to almost $45 billion by 2025. A portfolio of integrated vehicles and services that's all about the commercial customer. One plus one equals three. That's why Ford is so confident about growing our profit pools. The dollars we are investing in this space are going to return to us in a huge way. I'll hand it over to Alex Purdy to talk about connected services. [Presentation] Today, I'm going to focus on how we're building a substantive connected services business. Our digital engagement with customers through the entire ownership journey opens a new form of value creation and allows us to put the plus in Ford+. I cannot overstate for you the magnitude of the shift taking place at Ford. This isn't just theory. The digital engagement flywheel is turning, with millions of customers already engaging with our digital platforms. We're starting to see the positive impact with our customers and on our business. Having high-quality, affordable products will always be a foundation for success, and that'll never change. Now the path to winning requires daily interaction, solving our customers' problems, and maximizing customer lifetime value. With our always-on approach to customer experience, teams across our enterprise are coming together. They are enabling exciting and useful daily digital engagements in-vehicle as well as in showrooms and service bays for our customers who choose to be connected. We've jumped into this ambitious new business model fully, and we are positioned to win thanks to our strategic decisions on in-house capabilities versus partnerships, our ability to quickly scale our offerings across millions of customers, and with the strength of our brands. I'll walk you through all of this over the next few minutes. Running a digital thread through our customers' lives and offering a connected ecosystem of services changes our business model in several ways. First, it increases our total addressable market. By 2030, we believe functionality like driver assist technologies and upgrades, new content, and charging could be worth more than $20 billion in revenue. We intend to capitalize on as much of this opportunity as possible. At scale, these connected services have strong margins, are more stable and sticky throughout economic cycles, and can act like annuities to us after a vehicle's purchase. Secondly, we are leveraging FordPass, Lincoln Way, Ford Pro Telematics, and our in-vehicle infotainment systems to serve up additional products and services from across Ford. These include repair, maintenance, financing, and accessories, all offered at the right time, at the right price, and the right configuration. By doing so, we significantly increase the opportunity to cross-sell into high-margin products and services, increasing repair and maintenance loyalty post-warranty, as well as improving take rates for accessories. Thirdly, we are leveraging the data off connected vehicles to reduce internal costs. For example, we think we can improve our future warranty expense by about 8% by mid-decade through quicker detection and resolution of quality issues, meaning fewer vehicles are produced that need repair. In addition, it's much less expensive to send a software update remotely over-the-air than re-flashing items manually. These savings are incremental to the $20 billion revenue opportunity we showed you earlier. As this capability rolls across our new vehicles, our scale will ensure these savings are significant, and this will be a fundamentally better experience for millions of customers. This real-world data allows us to better understand our customers and how they really use their vehicles, leading to products that squarely hit customer needs and are not over or under-designed. More competitive vehicles at a better cost. Finally, most importantly, we are establishing a deeper, lifelong relationship with our customers, serving people uniquely, not like a data point on an algorithm, and continually earning their loyalty. We are reinventing our customer experience with modern, digitally-enabled tools like the leading and most comprehensive rewards program, in-vehicle connected services, mobile repair, pickup and delivery, ordering online, and simplified financing and renewal options. Keeping a customer is much easier than acquiring a new customer. Our always-on relationship will improve marketing efficiency and reduce customer churn. Taken together, connected services increase the lifetime value of a customer. What's more, these benefits can go beyond the first owner, offering greater value to the second owner through continued enhancement of their used vehicle and to Ford through incremental digital services revenue. Enabling a vehicle with connectivity takes investment in hardware and upfront software. At scale, the upfront investments could take less than two years to pay back after an initial vehicle sale. Strong margins after that initial payback will drop to the bottom line. Let me show you how our customers are experiencing Ford differently across three important journeys, repair and maintenance, our differentiated ride and drive experiences, and repurchase. Let's start with maintenance and repair. We can now remotely identify issues with your vehicle, replacing a previously analog and arduous experience with a digital and convenient service experience. Let me give you an example. In the past, when your Ford or Lincoln needed to be serviced, it potentially upended your day and perhaps even took time away from your family or work. Imagine instead, your vehicle not only tells you when a service is needed, it provides a seamless process for scheduling that service or repair. Perhaps that service even takes place in your driveway with our mobile service team. Imagine what this does for the service business we have with our dealers, but even more importantly, what it does for service loyalty and repurchase with our customers. Never underestimate the power of easy. By delivering the services that are convenient and which fit our customers' lives, they will trust us with even more share of their wallet over time. The backbone of our digital services strategy is our ability to update the software and embedded firmware of the vehicle remotely and then to build applications on top of that architecture. This means Ford vehicles can get better over time. Some manufacturers can update a limited subset of their systems, like infotainment. Our newest vehicles can update nearly all vehicle computer modules wirelessly. While this capability is not new to the industry, the difference is we're launching this at scale. We've already successfully launched this on the F-150 and Mach-E. Next, this capability will quickly roll out across our luxury, commercial, and passenger vehicle nameplates. Despite only creating the capability this year, our goal is to have more vehicles capable of receiving these wireless updates than Tesla does before Independence Day 2022. As they come online, they will be available at an unprecedented scale. Many of these services will be built upon our strengths in areas where we have sustainable competitive advantages and the right to win. These include driver-assist technologies, commercial vehicle solutions, BEV charging, and adventure. Across our brands, driver-assist technologies are increasingly a major driver of purchase consideration, and they're a part of our digital business model. We're making this technology more affordable than others and attracting more customers. More customers using the technology creates a flywheel effect. For example, more areas mapped more thoroughly for automated driving. It also allows customers to benefit from the growing of our digital business. Customers first experience driver-assist technologies through Ford and Lincoln Co-Pilot360 packages. As they own the vehicle, we continue to add new content. For example, our hands-free assisted driving feature, BlueCruise, will be added via wireless software update later this year. This highly sophisticated feature will roll out to a total of six models within the next two years, making luxury-level technology available to the masses. Currently, hands-free and hands-on SAE Level 2 assisted driving features exist on less than 10% of vehicles on the road. We believe these are a seismic change to the overall driving experience, and we expect to see significant growth rates. This customer favorability and growth is important because driver-assist technologies and their continuous enhancements are going to anchor our connected services subscriptions and drive repurchase of these services as complimentary offerings end. As Ted and Hans talked about, Ford owns work and Ford Pro Productivity Solutions will meet the needs of owners, fleet managers, and drivers. Today, we have several connected services in place for our commercial customers, and we're extending and scaling these offerings to cover broader use cases, including helping commercial customers manage the transition to BEV solutions. Hau and Lisa laid out our electric vehicle ambition. Connected services are critical to ensuring our customers' experience with BEVs is one they don't ever want to give up. Owning a BEV is all new to many of our customers. We will be their guide. We are offering services that simplify trip planning, public and home charging products that reduce range anxiety, and content that takes advantage of stationary moments. We will continue to enhance and to add to these services through the vehicle's life. We are already seeing success here. Our Mach-E owners engage with the Ford digital ecosystem two times more than our average ICE customer. This is an early indicator of the power of the always-on relationship. Another area of investment is enhancing the experience customers can have with our iconic vehicles. For example, we believe that only we can build and sell unique services for our nameplates that focus on off-roading and adventure, particularly for our passionate Bronco and Raptor customers. Our digitally-oriented customers want the same experience when they repurchase, which means reinventing how they shop for, buy, and upgrade vehicles. In the U.S., we now offer an entirely digital shopping experience. In the last year alone, our dealers completed nearly 260,000 remote sales deliveries. Our new digital reservation programs for Mach-E and Bronco help predict demand patterns a full year earlier than previously possible, allowing for lower inventory levels, support costs, and incentives. Our pickup and delivery service has become very popular with new Ford and Lincoln owners. So has the Discover Your Ford platform, which includes a one-on-one video chat with a Ford tech expert. Changing to an always-on relationship model built on daily digital interactions with our customers required a strategic and ambitious building of critical foundational elements and all-new capabilities. Just a few of the foundational shifts we have made. We changed our approach to electrical architecture. It's software-defined, connected, upgradable, fully integrated into our tech stack, and available on the F-150 and Mach-Es today. We've built a modern cloud data infrastructure, an incredible undertaking considering the emerging connected vehicle data volume. We're training and implementing AI applications broadly. A huge undertaking. Let's be honest, table stakes. Our ambitions require more. Ford also is investing heavily in new competencies to compete like a challenger. Let's take another look at the Ford+ plan. We are building up the new capabilities you see in the center section. Integrated hardware and software. This includes new electrical architecture, modular microservice systems, automated testing and simulation, and zonal energy management and storage. Hau talked to you about how these will be scalable to match different customer use cases. Connectivity. We are building full-stack and application software engineering, UI and UX design, charging and energy management integration. We are also investing in data analytics and other off-board capabilities, including platform engineering, data anomaly detection, cloud engineering, and network services. It also is important to our strategy for us to clearly delineate when to build services and technology in-house for competitive advantage versus when we capture the benefit of working with major tech players at the commodity levels of our tech stack. This open approach to partnering is a real differentiator for us at Ford and increasingly why customers choose us. They can get the best-in-class technology they are already familiar with in a fully integrated experience. For example, Ford and Lincoln vehicles will be powered by Google Automotive Services beginning in 2023 with a robust third-party app ecosystem, Google Maps, and Digital Assistant. We'll also leverage Google's world-class expertise in data, AI, and machine learning and collaborate on personalized data-driven experiences for the future. In China, our partnership with Baidu offers a similar seamless integration to our customers' favorite ecosystem, bringing the digital assistant, navigation, and advanced infotainment capabilities of their phones into their vehicles. Customers can access mobile service apps and lifestyle services from their in-vehicle touchscreens. We know the importance of delivering best-in-class integrations with Apple CarPlay. Even in these early days, we are seeing more than 90% of Mach-E owners using CarPlay via projection mode, no cord needed. As we recently announced, we plan to deliver Alexa built-in technology to approximately 700,000 vehicles in North America by the end of the year, followed by millions more in the next few. We are also partnering on services such as usage-based insurance so our customers can benefit from data-driven discounts. This unique approach to partnerships is customer-centric and allows us to invest in the areas where we can deliver proprietary solutions that result in competitive advantage. Although we're still early in this massive digital transformation of Ford's business, we've already opened up a significant new market opportunity. By refocusing the company on an always-on customer relationship, we deliver connected features and services to our millions of customers and drive significant and stable incremental revenue for our business. Over to John to show you how the financials of everything you've heard today fits together. Right, Alex. Thanks. With everything you have seen today, I think you will agree our team is on a new path. Through Ford+, we are creating lifelong, always-on customer relationships. When you put everything together, our improved product mix, anchored by our iconic nameplates, our plans to electrify high-volume segments as we ramp up into BEVs, our strategy to leverage our strength in commercial vehicles into a new multifaceted business, and our deep commitment to capitalize on vehicle connectivity. Simply put, our foundational strengths provide the cash flow to invest in disruptive technology to enhance our capabilities to create a larger, more profitable business, unlocking value for both our customers and investors. At the core is a disciplined capital allocation. We are making the right choices, which will generate the cash flow to invest in growth, further reinforce our strong balance sheet, and create superior long-term value for our investors. Let me highlight a few of the choices we've made to strengthen our core automotive business. We've exited underperforming vehicle platforms and invested in our leading and iconic high-margin products, transformed our operations outside North America, and we've taken lasting actions to continuously improve quality and costs. Let's look briefly at each one. We've replaced loss-making products with high-volume, iconic, must-have nameplates like Ranger, Bronco, and Bronco Sport, Aviator, and an exciting new white space vehicle we will reveal soon. These changes alone in just three plants are driving an annual adjusted EBIT improvement of $1.8 billion. We're using this framework around the world. Our capital is now focused on our areas of strength, and we have a lot of them. This is without question the strongest product portfolio we've had in decades, and we intend to build on these very successful and profitable franchises. We have F-Series, the number 1 full-size pickup globally. Mustang, the number 1 sports coupe globally. Transit, the number 1 cargo van globally. Explorer, America's all-time best-selling SUV. Ranger, the number 2 medium-size pickup globally. Now the Bronco family and Mustang Mach-E. Building on our strong product lineup, we have also taken bold actions to fix or dispose of our underperforming operations outside North America. This has been hard work and we've made great progress. In Europe, we made a commitment to transform our business and are doing just that. We have refocused our portfolio on three profitable and growing customer segments. Our leading commercial vehicle franchise, which is now almost 50% of our mix, SUVs, which now account for 30% of our mix, and select high-margin imports like the Mustang Mach-E. We are also effectively leveraging our low-cost manufacturing operations in Turkey and Romania. Our alliance with VW will drive scale and efficiency. We've de-risked Russia, where we are now focused solely on commercial vehicles. We eliminated more than $1 billion in annual structural costs. These actions, coupled with the reduction in manufacturing plants in the region and lower overhead, have Europe solidly on track to reach an EBIT margin of 6% by 2023. In South America, we've lost more than $3.5 billion over the last five years. That ends now. We made tough choices. We went from four manufacturing plants down to just one. We are reducing headcount by roughly 80% and we are exiting manufacturing in Brazil. We eliminated $800 million in annual structural costs to date with more to come. We did all of this in a thoughtful and socially responsible way, working with our employees and other key stakeholders. The net result is a de-risked and asset-light business model on its way to profitability, leveraging key franchises like Ranger and Transit. We are making real progress in China. We have a plan to grow and win and are making the investments now to deliver it. We've also refocused on our strengths, lowered cost, and localized our engineering and design capabilities to better serve the needs of our China customers. These actions have resulted in a shift in mix to higher-profit growth segments, including SUVs and commercial vehicles. Today, 90% of our Lincoln products are produced in China, up 66 percentage points from a year ago, significantly improving our cost. Lincoln is gaining strong momentum. In the first quarter, market share nearly doubled year-over-year. There's more to come, including the locally manufactured Ford Evos, which is specifically designed for the Chinese market, as well as the Mustang Mach-E later this year. Our regional operations outside of North America are now primed to drive consistent profit and cash flow. The tide has turned. Over the last three years, we lost an average of $2 billion a year from those businesses. In the first quarter of this year, we generated a profit of $500 million, and we're not done. For example, in our international markets group, we are investing $1 billion to expand our plant in South Africa to produce the next-generation Ranger and VW Amarok pickup truck. We are re-examining our business model in India. Our focus on cost management is also driving improved performance. Our introduction of modular architectures has lowered complexity, increased leverage from our scale, and reduced material and engineering costs. To reduce warranty costs, we have focused on changes in design, vehicle inspection, and supplier management. We will use connected vehicle data to identify issues earlier in the process. We have a $1 billion-$2 billion warranty opportunity to capture. You saw it in our first quarter results, a $400 million improvement year-over-year. We intend to deliver the balance of that improvement opportunity over the next few years. Ford Credit has long been a best-in-class finance company, serving our dealers and customers and a consistent source of profits and distributions. As part of Ford+, Ford Credit is a strategic customer-facing asset that represents a competitive advantage for Ford. We are putting software and data first and modernizing operations, all wrapped with a deep focus on our customer. Ted provided one such example where Ford Credit will be a key component of the Ford Pro ecosystem, helping us provide an integrated financing option and grow our financing share of small and medium fleet customers from 10% to 25% by 2025. We expect to take Ford Credit customer satisfaction and enterprise loyalty to a new level, facilitating the expansion of new services and driving improved margins for Ford. Let's look at how all of this comes together, including the investments we are making for the future. We are on track to achieve an 8% adjusted EBIT margin by 2023. In addition to the improvement overseas, this reflects North America's earning power as it continues to target a 10% EBIT margin. Bottom line, our improving core business is generating strong cash flow to fund growth and drive long-term value creation. As Jim highlighted, we are transforming from a traditional OEM build-and-sell transactional model to lifelong, always-on customer relationships. When added to our foundational strengths and enhanced capabilities, our TAM expands, unlocking new growth and value creation and total shareholder returns. Let's recap our growth opportunities. There has been a lot of talk about electrification, and some have suggested that Ford is behind the curve. Reactions to the Mustang Mach-E and the F-150 Lightning and the E-Transit coming later this year prove otherwise. We are electrifying our high-volume and profitable segment-leading nameplates, and these will rapidly scale. As Mustang Mach-E demonstrated, we are attracting new customers. 70% of orders are from customers who are new to Ford. We've accelerated and increased our planned investment in electrification to more than $30 billion by 2025. We are targeting a 40% mix of BEVs by 2030. All proof points we will be a leader in electrification. Through scale, technology, pricing power, and Ford+, our ultimate goal over time is to deliver higher profitability than our ICE vehicles deliver today. Ted and Hans took you through the details of Ford Pro, our new commercial vehicle services and distribution business. We are standing up this organization to focus solely on commercial customers' end-to-end needs, unlocking tremendous value for them and a significant TAM for us. We expect to grow our commercial business from $27 billion in revenue to $45 billion in revenue by 2025. We are building an ecosystem for our customers that extends well beyond the vehicle. This ecosystem removes pain points, enhances productivity, and lowers total cost of ownership, creating value for them as well as for Ford. Let's not forget Ford Pro is an addition to our rock-solid, industry-leading retail truck and large SUV business with a combined $55 billion in revenue and EBIT margins in the mid-teens. Alex shared how connected services now provide a platform for us to enhance customer experience and loyalty, including the delivery of over-the-air power-ups that improve the vehicle over time. For example, BlueCruise for retail customers and Ford Pro E-Telematics dashboard and data tools for commercial customers. The math on this is pretty straightforward. Based on units in operation, attach rate, revenue per vehicle, and margin. By the end of this year, we will have 1 million connected and OTA-capable vehicles on the road. By 2028, we will have about 33 million. To give you a sense of the potential scale, consider a hypothetical scenario. Start with the 33 million vehicles. Assuming a 50% attach rate at $20 per month, we would generate about $4 billion of new revenue. These services are high margin, sticky, and annuity-like. You can make your own assumptions on the input variables, including the mix of retail versus commercial. We clearly see connected services as a tremendous source of growth and value creation. Later this year, we plan to give you an update on our autonomous vehicle business. Let me touch on a few highlights of where we are now. We are on target to stand up a commercialized business by 2022. We are also on track with our $7 billion in investments through 2025, including in Argo. Argo and Ford are now testing in six U.S. cities in very different and very complex environments that help make our systems smarter, which will help us scale faster. Argo also plans to expand to Germany this year. We're continuing to evolve and improve the technology. Earlier this year, Argo introduced proprietary lidar with the longest range, highest resolution, and best low-light reflective capability. Stay tuned. Before closing and moving to Q&A, I want to come back to where we started. Everything we have talked about today and are doing is built on disciplined capital allocation, making the right choices to create value for our customers and our investors. We are investing in disruptive technologies to enhance capabilities and drive growth in areas of strength where the returns will be the highest. We are partnering for efficiency and expertise. We are investing in strategic relationships like Rivian and Argo, and we are optimizing our capital structure with an objective to return to investment-grade ratings. The right choices will create value and drive total shareholder return. Jim said earlier that this is our biggest opportunity for growth and value creation since Henry Ford started to scale the Model T. I couldn't agree more. We have a compelling purpose. We have improved day-to-day execution. Embedded technology means we'll have always-on after-sales experiences that will extend our customer relationship beyond the upfront purchase. We have a solid Ford+ plan for growth, and we have a committed team in place that can deliver it. With that, we will take a short five-minute break, and when we come back, we'll take some of your questions. Good day, everyone. I'm Lynn Antipas Tyson, Head of Investor Relations for the Ford Motor Company. For the next hour, I'll serve as your host and moderator for a live interactive question and answer session. In the previous 90 minutes, you saw how we will deliver Ford+. Let me now introduce our panel. Jim Farley, our President and CEO of Ford. John Lawler, CFO. Hau Thai-Tang, Chief Product, Platform, and Operations Officer. Lisa Drake, Chief Operating Officer of North America. Ted Cannis, the newly appointed CEO of Ford Pro, and Alex Purdy, Director of Business Operations, Enterprise Connectivity. All here to take your questions. Representatives from across the investment community are on the question line right now. You've all been placed on mute until it's your turn to ask a question. This, of course, eliminates random background noise from your house pets and other distractions. For those asking a question, to reduce audio feedback, please reduce the volume on your computer. I also ask that you limit yourself to one question. We want to field questions from as many of you as possible. After the last question, I'll turn the program over to Jim for his reflections on the day, as well as his reflections on the past, the present, and the future of Ford Motor Company. Let's begin. Our first question is from Colin Langan from Wells Fargo. Oh, great. Thanks for taking my question. You mentioned profits on electric vehicles and services would be greater than internal combustion engine. Does that mean profits on EVs will be lower, or will there be and that'll be offset by the connected services? When would you see electric vehicles being more in line with internal combustion engine profits? Thanks for your question. I think John is best to answer your first, and then I think Lisa can go into the details about the timing. Yeah. Thanks, Colin. Thanks for the question. If you look at the profitability of our electric vehicles today, of course, they're not as high as what we have on our ICE vehicles, but we're at the front end of the technology curve. As Lisa showed in her presentation, we're working really hard to bring down that cost structure, and we expect that to accelerate over time. The other thing is we are looking at this as an ecosystem. We believe that the expanded business model we have is going to allow us, over time, to drive profitability higher than what we see on ICE vehicles today. I think I'd like to turn it over to Lisa to talk about all the work that she's doing to lower the costs, drive higher profits, and drive that to be as soon as we can. We're looking at all three elements of that: cost, increased revenues, higher profitability from the expanded business model and the services, and doing that as quickly as we can and accelerating that curve. Lisa, do you want to give some details around what you're doing? Yeah. Thanks, John. As we mentioned before, everybody knows you have to have a relentless focus on material cost in this business. With the EVs, clearly the battery pack, the battery cells are the first place you start, which is why we created Ford Ion Park and invested in our battery center of excellence, and we just announced our joint venture with SK. We believe that through those efforts and the capital that we've put in place, that we're well on our path to a $100 per kilowatt-hour battery pack cost by the mid-decade, and we're going to go even further. We know we need to get to $80 a kilowatt-hour before the end of the decade. On the other side of that equation, the team is really excited about the revenue opportunities. Once you electrify some of these iconic products, there are so many enhancements that come along with electrification. If you look at the F-150 Lightning, as an example, we have the Intelligent Backup Power, which is our bi-directional charging capability on that truck, and the team is really interested. If you think about disrupting a billion-dollar portable generator business with a truck, there's a lot of opportunity there. You add onto that all of the Ford Pro and the commercial solutions for the commercial customers that Ted and his organization are going to be delivering. You think about 33 million connected vehicles on the road, 40% of which would be EVs. If you know your EV, you interact with that with your phone and our FordPass app, and we're going to be always on with those EV customers. You interact with that app a couple times a day, whether it's charging or route planning, et cetera. We think we have really strong building blocks for the profitability of our plan in the future. The way we're thinking about it is that these aren't electric vehicles, they're digital vehicles. It's the digital part that really unlocks all this capability beyond the cost. Okay. Thank you. Our next question is going to be from Brian Johnson from Barclays. Thank you. Yeah, just want to understand on that step up of commercial revenue from $27 billion to $45 billion, how much are you thinking about in terms of vehicle sales and how much are you thinking about in terms of software and other digital services? Ted, that's all yours. Brian. Nice to hear from you. It's a bit of both. We've already said we would double our profits in Europe over the period in the commercial business and also in North America. It's both vehicles and new services. Just one example of the new services, the parts business we expect to grow $750 million top line by 2025 just on the service hubs and mobile service units. We've already got 159 mobile service units in action, and we can see that parts generation by solving customers' parts needs and service needs on site. We can go to the site and fix 10 vehicles a time. It includes the parts profits, higher margin, the connected service profits that are higher margin, and the new charging business we're going to start with the depots with E-Transit at the end of this year. Okay. Thank you, Ted. Just as. Oh, follow up? All right. Just as a follow-up. Yeah, just as a follow-up. Part of what you outlined in Ford Pro was like fleet management software, but that is a mature space within the large fleet business. What kind of comfort do you have in terms of your SME fleet customer base? How many are using competitor fleet management solutions now, so do you have to conquest them? How many are just waiting for an easy-to-use app that gives them fleet management capabilities? Hey, Brian. It's a great question. This one is our secret sauce. Where we're super strong is in small and medium businesses around the world. In the U.S., we have 125,000 active commercial customers, either small governments and commercial, and most of those have much smaller than 150 Ford vehicle fleets in operation. There is a huge missing underserved group in there. It's only the big companies, and they want to have more productivity. I was looking at our customers last week who enrolled between 30 and 59 units, and they're from Texas to Minnesota. They're small businesses in construction or small governments. That's the kind of business that they need easier solutions, and we have the local specialized commercial centers all across the country, more than 650 in the U.S. and thousands in Europe, that really know those customers with deep relationships and can help them. Okay, thanks, Ted. Our next question is going to be from Rod Lache from Wolfe Research. Rod? Hi, everybody. I have a question about your pricing strategy in electric vehicles. I know there's obviously a wide range of pricing versus the average transaction prices versus what your base prices typically are. Maybe you can just talk a little bit about the strategic rationale for making the starting price of the F-150 Lightning kind of in line with the regular 3.3 liter F-150 Super Crew. It was a surprising development. Maybe you can just elaborate on what you expect to accomplish from that and how we should be thinking about the implications for the company in terms of size of that business. Thanks, Rod. I'd like Lisa to double down on this important question. I'll just say it really simply. We have no intention of ceding our truck leadership in North America to anyone as we move to BEV. We can accomplish this kind of pricing because of our large scale. That's really one of the big advantages for Ford. It begins there. We'll have a range of pricing in spec, but the idea to go to market on our digital products is a bit different than our ICE products. We don't intend to have the large discounting and fixed marketing that we normally have. This is really a loyalty type customer for us. We already have about 70,000 orders for the Lightning, and the orders are coming in not because of the starting price, because of the full offer. Lisa, anything to add? Yeah, Jim, I think you've really framed it well. I'll just add that our research says that 80% of customers, once they buy an EV, they never go back. In line with our intent to not cede our truck leadership, we're going to win from day one. We're not going to go out there and try and conquest customers. We're giving our Ford Pro customers that really value that total cost of ownership, something that only Ford can do, which is a work truck suited just for them at a price that they can afford. Okay, great. Thanks, Lisa. Our next question is going to be from John Murphy from Bank of America. Good morning, everybody, and thanks for all the information today. The question I have is, if you think about the 8% EBIT margin target for 2023, since it's been first established, a lot of things have changed. Most importantly, spending and investment for future tech, whether it be connected or mobility on demand, has gone up pretty dramatically. Yet you're still maintaining this EBIT margin target. I'm just curious, how much of your spending you think is reallocated? How much do you think is the core of the business is that much stronger and being made that much stronger? How does this kind of seesaw-Working, and if we think about the $30 billion spend on EVs, is that a reallocation of resources? How much of that is incremental? Just really trying to understand. If you think about the 8% target in 2023, you have all these things you're working on. It seems like the payoff pitch is 2023 to 2025 or maybe even beyond based on what you're talking about here. Is there even potential to that 8% target beyond 2023? Thanks, John. Let me try to unpack that and give you a feel for where we're headed. I think when you think about the 8%, we have to start with the run rate of the business, and we've said consistently this year that we think it's 8%-9%. You're starting to see the strength in the core business come through. You're starting to see the work we've done to move into our higher margin, higher revenue products, and you see that through our portfolio that we've launched recently. That's taking a foothold. You're also seeing the work we're doing on cost, not only in North America, but what we're doing to improve overseas. We're driving towards lower material costs. We're driving towards lower costs through our industrial platform. You see that being enabled by the work we're doing on commonality reuse. We're driving that reuse target up significantly through our modular architectures. That saves not only engineering but capital investment, and it drives scale and reduces costs. We're getting the traction of that coming through. The other thing that Hau's doing, he's working really hard to increase his footprint of low cost for his industrial platform. All of those things are starting to come together in North America to drive towards that 10% target. You see that core strengthening. Improving overseas, right? That's key. You've seen the proof points in Europe. You've seen the progress we've made in South America. We've talked about the work we need to do in international markets. We're not going to stop there, right? We're going to continue to drive for efficiencies and productivity improvements in our footprint around the world as we move forward. Driving to that 2023 target of 8%, we're very confident about that, and it includes all the investments that we're making in BEVs, all the investments that we're making in connectivity, all the investments that we're making in our mobility systems. That's in there. We feel confident with the strength of that core business improving, generating the cash flow we need to continue to invest in these disruptive technologies, gives us a winning equation into 2023, and we're not going to stop there. Of course, we're here to build and invest in value-creating businesses that give strong returns for our shareholders. That's our intent, that's what we're doing, and that's what we're driving towards. Okay. Thanks, John. Our next question is from Ryan Brinkman from JP Morgan. Thanks. A lot of good commentary on the long-term outlook today. Thanks for that. Just wanted to ask around the near term, if I could, though, including after other automakers, which reported 1Q earnings after you, guided to a less harsh headwind in Q2 and over the balance of the year from the semiconductor shortage issue, causing I think investors to wonder the degree to which maybe you were just sort of unfortunately disproportionately impacted by the Renesas fire versus the degree to which maybe you might have been conservative in your outlook for losing up to 50% of the previously planned production. Just wanted to check in with regards to whether the chip shortage impact is going as planned or maybe tracking any better? On the revenue side, we're receiving a lot of indication that new and used pricing is very strong, stronger even than in 1Q, which helped you a lot that quarter. Just, I wanted to get your thoughts on that as well. Thanks. I think things are playing out about what we expected, at least on the chip side. Hau can give an update for everyone there, and I think, John, maybe you can portray what we're seeing on pricing, both through the used side and Ford Credit and the new side, especially in North America. Yep. Thank you, Jim. As Jim mentioned, the chip shortage is really playing out very much in line with our guidance. As you alluded to, Ford had exposure to Renesas in terms of the fire that happened in the Naka facility. Renesas is back up and running. They're trying to ride up that ramp curve. We expect Q2, just like John stated, is going to be the trough. We're feeling it between now and next month, and then we'll see a slow recovery in the back half of the year in line with the guidance that we gave you. Right. Yeah, right now we're sticking with the guidance we gave, $5.5 billion-$6.5 billion EBIT, cash generation between a half a billion and a billion and a half. Right now, as Hau said, we're seeing how this unfolds. We are seeing strength in used car prices. We're seeing strength in new car prices. At this point, we're not moving off of the guidance that we gave when we talked about it in Q1. Of course, as we get into Q2, we'll have more to update at that time. Okay. Thanks, John. Our next question is from Adam Jonas from Morgan Stanley. Thanks, everybody. Great presentation, great slides. It sounds like your EV business is targeting some pretty high margins. I respect that the 2023 target, the 8% for 2023 is still really a ICE-dominated company. I'm guessing 90%, 95% ICE still. You don't have the full benefit of the EV mix and the services mix, but it's starting. The 40% target of the EV by 2030, it really does imply some very high de-adoption of internal combustion. I also find that the de-adoption, just from the amount of money you're spending on BEVs and probably taken some the reallocation away from ICE. Can Ford confirm that it is targeting a materially lower volume of ICE vehicles? Again, maybe not by 2023, but mid-decade, latter decade, a larger absolute number of ICE vehicles. If so, might there be an opportunity for impairments or revaluation of these long-lived ICE assets that could impact your results? Thanks. At this point in time, we're not going to get any new impairments in how we'll handle our legacy ICE business. For sure, we see the ICE headwinds there, especially as we accelerate BEV into our really high-volume products in the middle of the decade. That's really when the BEV volume builds dramatically in scale, and that's going to have obviously a big impact. I want to emphasize one thing that Lisa mentioned in her presentation, which is we're not looking at BEVs as fully one-for-one substitution with ICE. It's not how we're looking at that. For example, the Lightning, we absolutely see the Lightning bringing new customers, not just to Ford, but to the full-size truck business. As far as when that timing, how it works, I think Hau and Lisa would be best suited to answer your question. At this point in time, I'd just like to emphasize the importance of looking at our BEV business as an opportunity for growth, not fully substitution. Adam, I would just reinforce that this leadership team, this management team, we're focused to leading this electric revolution. What we mean by that is we're not taking a wait-and-see approach. We're not waiting with our fingers crossed that the regulatory environment will drive changes. We're going to lead it by delivering compelling products that are simply better solutions for our customers. The Lightning is a great example of that. We listened to our customers. They told us they don't want a polarizing design that's at the expense of functionality. They're not looking for driving modes that are gimmicky that they'll never use. They want smart, intuitive solutions that will help them work smarter and be more productive, and that's what we've delivered. If we do that on 40% of our product lineup by 2030, we expect that to be accretive to our business. That's the way we're thinking about it, and that's how we're focused as a team on delivering that. Thanks, Hau. Our next question is from Emmanuel Rosner from Deutsche Bank. I was hoping to understand a little bit better your EV platform strategy across the various regions. Starting with North America, you spoke about two dedicated EV platforms. Just would love to understand better what you get to accomplish through two platforms that wouldn't be doable with just one, like other global automakers may have started developing. Curious also what is the plan for EV platform in China to cover the Chinese EV market? You mentioned very quickly in passing Rivian as learning from their experience as a startup. Can you just be a little bit more specific in terms of whether there will be some product based on their platform? Okay. Emmanuel, thanks for that question. I think the platform and architecture strategy that we shared really underscores our ambition with battery electric vehicles. If you think about Ford today, our annual sales are roughly 5 million vehicles. We serve all of those diverse customers across markets and geographies with five architectures. If our future is really leading this electric revolution, we're going to have 40% of our sales volume by 2030, we don't think it's realistic to try to take a one-size-fits-all solution because our customer needs are so different. Full-size pickup truck owners, commercial customers, SUV drivers, all those customer requirements are very different. What I can tell you is Ford is a master at maximizing flexibility and bandwidth coverage. This is why we cited our C2 architecture, the fact that we can meet all of those requirements, right from the Focus customer in Europe all the way up to a Bronco Sport customer in North America with the same underpinnings. The two-architecture approach, we feel, is a very efficient way to go to market that balances meeting all the diverse customer requirements and giving us all of the back-end efficiencies. In terms of our approach with Rivian, it's a strategic partnership. We are working very closely with their team. They have their heads down with all the products, their work statement that they have, but we are working in parallel to think about opportunities for us to leverage the learnings there as well as their products to help us meet our customer requirements going forward. Nothing to announce at this point in time, but the relationship is a really good one. In China, the heart and soul of Ford's and Lincoln's strategy in China, as John said, is really that two and three-row crossover space. We're now doing incredibly well with Lincoln in that space. On the ICE side, we launch the Mach-E later this year. One of those two platforms is absolutely perfect for Lincoln and the Ford brand in China, where we'll grow our volumes with lots of new two and three-row crossovers. Okay, thanks, Jim. Our next question is going to be from Dan Levy from Credit Suisse. Hi. Good morning, everyone, and thank you for the helpful and insightful presentation. I think it's clear that the redesign of your business is really enabling you to fund all these growth initiatives. Maybe you can help us understand just maybe some scenarios. If the redesign shows upside, what does this enable you to do on funding of initiatives that maybe isn't your plan today? Is it more vertical integration? Is it other ancillaries? Where could you go deeper? On the flip side, if the market slows or there's issues on the redesign, it doesn't work out as planned, how does that impact your required spend on growth initiatives? Then maybe you could just give us a sense of how the dividend may factor into all of this. Thank you. Great. I'd like John to answer most of that. Obviously, the redesign is a must for us. As any professional team, we're going to have scenario planning on both sides of that. Our Ford+ plan is our plan. If there's upside on the turnaround, we're going to invest more in everything we explained to you. We're going to accelerate, invest more in advanced electric architecture, a wider band of family of digital products, new capability in the company, vertical integration in key areas that you can imagine as we go to this digital future. We will do everything that is required to turn the base business around. John? Yeah, Jim, I think that's key is we are completely committed to improving the core business to generate the cash to invest in our growth initiatives. As we do that improvement, if we're better than our plan, we have an upside scenario, we'll invest more. It could be vertical integration. It could be through the value chain for battery electric vehicles, right? There's many opportunities that we can look at, and we are looking at. Now, if we see a downturn and things are worse, we're going to double down on improving the business, and we're going to do everything we can to continue the investment in our growth initiatives, because that's our future. I think, Jim, the other day you said to me, when we were talking about the downside scenario, you said, well, we better figure out how to sell the furniture because we're going to continue to invest. We're pushing ourselves and looking at both scenarios. Personally, I like the upside scenario much better, but we're going to prepare for both. Our plan, that 8% EBIT margin, generating strong cash flow from those improved margins in the core business, we're completely committed to delivering that so we can invest in this growth and give strong returns for our shareholders. John, the dividend question. Right. The dividend has always been an important part of our total shareholder equation. It has been for the time of Ford. We have a lot of shareholders that are interested in the dividend. Now we're investing in improving the business, we're investing in growth, but we see the strength of the business generating the cash flow that will allow us to reinstate a dividend as soon as it's practical, and we're focused on that. That's important to us so that we can have a total equation on shareholder value, stock price appreciation, a dividend, and that will satisfy all of our shareholders, and that's important to us. Okay. Thanks. Thanks, John. Our next question is from Mark Delaney from Goldman Sachs. Yes, thank you very much for taking the question and for hosting the event today. The company's demonstrated very good EV products between both the Mach-E and now the F-150 Lightning. The company is announcing the plans to do the flexible EV architecture and the battery joint venture a little bit later than some of your competitors. Can you talk about how you expect your cost structure in EVs to be comparable to peers? Can you match or perhaps even exceed those competitors when you think about factors like perhaps Ford's been working on some of these technologies just in the background? Can you talk about some of the new technologies you're trying to bring into batteries, but then also some of the opportunities outside of the powertrain like materials that you guys spoke about? We are so excited to get this question. Thank you so much for asking it. Hau, I'd like you to really focus in on how are we different? Yeah. Thank you so much for the question. I think there's a perception out there that batteries are a commodity, and there's so much scrutiny on the cost, which is very important, as Lisa underscored earlier. I want to talk a little bit about the battery chemistry. As Jim mentioned, in the first inning of this journey, we had the luxury of working with the best suppliers in the world. We worked with the best Japanese suppliers, Korean suppliers, Chinese suppliers, and we have a really good understanding of the state of the art. We couple that with the resources that we have internally in Ford Ion Park. We know exactly what the state of the art is. The battery that we're bringing to market, IonBoost, is simply the highest energy density of its type in the world. It has a nickel cobalt manganese chemistry for the cathode that has 88% nickel. This is a breakthrough. It increases the energy density, which by the way helps cost because cost is measured as dollars per kilowatt-hour. More importantly, something that's not being talked about enough is quality and safety. Jim, Lisa, and I had the chance to walk their line, the manufacturing process. We understand from the struggles that we've seen as an industry on launching battery electric vehicles, where the potential failure modes are, and we're so comforted by the immaculate safety record of SK, our partner, as well as the processes and manufacturing steps that they've put in place to ensure no contamination, high quality, really good repeatability in terms of stacking of the cathode and the anode. We think IonBoost is game-changing, it's differentiating, and we're certainly not disadvantaged versus anybody else in terms of the economics. Yeah, thanks, Hau. Clearly, we put the F-150 franchise in the hands of this cell, there's no better cell out there, as Hau mentioned. Even just as important was the cost of that cell, because we're going to scale that F-150 Lightning, and the cost had to be where we needed it. Through great work with SK, we believe we're highly competitive in the mid-decade at under $100 a kilowatt-hour at that pack level. Frankly, every day, every week, we're generating more ideas, whether it's at the pack level, the array level, the six layers of the cell level. We can't go into a battery day here today, but we're in all of those areas that we need to be, Lynn, and we're very excited. We'll be at $80 a kilowatt-hour at that pack level by the end of the decade. Again, it's both the quality, the performance of this SK cell, but also their ability to get down this cost roadmap with us. Okay, great. Thank you. Thank you, Lisa. Our next question is going to be from Joe Spak from RBC. Thanks so much, and thanks again, everyone, for all the information today. My question was about the next-gen pickup full-size architecture and the new all-wheel drive architecture. Maybe I misinterpreted, it kind of sounds to me like gen 2 of the Lightning and the Mach-E architecture that you just have recently unveiled. I get that you obviously need to continually improve. It sounds like maybe a quicker than typical change. Maybe you could clarify the timeframe on that. What I'd really like to hear more about is the potential improvements and benefits on that gen 2 versus gen 1. It sounds like they're more scalable, it can maybe offer some more top hats that the first gen would not allow you to do. What have you learned from these initial platforms that's different than improved on the second generation ones? How we look at it is actually the biggest investment we're making in these platforms is actually the electric architecture. That's really the difference maker on Always On Ford+ plan. Hau will go through how we see the pros and cons and how those platforms are different from our first iteration. From my standpoint, from our team's standpoint, the timing of those ground-up optimized battery electric platforms is that they're digital products, and we'll time them for the most advanced, fully connected vehicles that are fully updatable. That is really the big bet for the company, not just the electrification. Jim Farley is absolutely spot on. The real breakthrough is not so much the evolution of the architecture. We know how to do that. You guys can count on us to get that right in terms of maximizing the bandwidth and optimizing the commonality. What's really breakthrough is BlueOval Intelligence. It's a full technology stack from the hardware all the way up through the software architecture in the vehicle, as well as in our back end with our cloud and edge computing. I'll just give you some facts. The technology stack that we're launching today on Mustang Mach-E, F-150 Lightning, F-150, it'll be available on Bronco. Compared to that, our next generation, we're increasing the compute power by a factor of 24. We're increasing the memory in the vehicle by a factor of 7. We're going to be able to have up to 30 cameras in the vehicles. All of these are building blocks to enable Alex and his team to deliver those wonderful digital solutions and services to support Ted and all of our general managers. That's really the driver behind the technology and the investment in the architecture that we outlined. Thank you, Hau. Our next question is from Philippe Houchois from Jefferies, please. Yes, thank you very much. Good morning, thank you for a very convincing presentation today. My question was trying to understand, you've done a fantastic job of using Ford Credit to support earnings and cash flow. It seems to me that credit rating takes a bit of a precedence over dividend, possibly. Just trying to understand, as you grow Ford Pro, is the growth of Ford Pro going to lead you to increase the asset base of Ford Credit? How capital intensive is going to be the growth of Ford Pro from where you are today, and the implication potentially for distribution of the earnings to the parent? I was just wondering also, you talked to us about what you're doing with Google in the U.S. in terms of connectivity and Baidu in China. Do you think that from a consumer perspective, will you be offering as much services to your Chinese customers as what you can offer American consumers with Google? Will your offer also with Baidu be on par with what some of the local competitors might be able to offer in terms of services and connectivity? Just wondering if that puts you a little bit at a disadvantage compared to your Chinese competitors in terms of consumer offer. Thank you. Let me handle the last one first. The Ford team in China, it is a completely digitally different ecosystem, as you know, in China than the West. Our team is already fully into this transformation of Always On in China. We absolutely see the Baidu relationship as a game changer in terms of competitiveness locally in China, i.e., better than other companies. It is not a catch-up strategy. It is a difference-maker strategy. It just happens to be through a really critical partner that happens to be different in China. It's still our Ford+ plan. Nothing's changing. It's Always On. Absolutely, Baidu gives us a chance to have a- an incremental experience for our Chinese customers compared to our competitors. The real opportunity for us as a company is we believe the digital life of those Chinese customers on the retail side are ahead of the West. The real opportunity for us is to take that know-how inside the company and those experiences, and move them to the West using something like Google or CarPlay or Alexa or many others. That's the opportunity we have. I think from Ford Credit balance sheet, we don't see a significant change in the Ford Credit balance sheet. We feel we have optionality and the ability to work with Ted and fund Ford Pro, as well as continue to service our dealers and our retail customers. I wouldn't expect, or I wouldn't think about a big change in the size of our balance sheet at Ford Credit. Okay, thanks, John. The next question is from Itay Michaeli from Citi. Good morning, everybody. Just two quick ones for me. First, on the connected services opportunity, I believe the $20 billion by 2030, can you give us a rough split of how much of that comes from commercial customers versus retail customers? Secondly, in areas where attaining those opportunities requires added content up front, such as in the case with BlueCruise, what's your appetite to perhaps meaningfully increase the attach rate for things like BlueCruise, even if you don't get paid back upon the initial sale of the vehicle, because now you have a much longer life and opportunities to capture revenue over the life of the vehicle? Yeah. Thanks very much. It's a great question. I'll answer them in two parts. First of all, I think you're exactly right. Our commercial customers demand us to have solutions that drive productivity and increase uptime. As a result of that, when we deliver those functionalities through a service, they're willing to pay for it. We see a significant opportunity in the commercial space at a much faster rate than we do in the retail side of the business, and that's part of why Ted and I are partnering to really deliver software solutions for the Ford Pro brand. Those are things like driver coaching. Those are things like energy charging for depots, as well as home charging for when an employee charges their vehicle at home. These are difficult to do, require integration into the vehicle, and are differentiating for Ford. Because we own work, we are the natural winner of those spaces. I think it is clear that a lot of the $20 billion that I talked about here is directed at commercial services. We have a lot of excitement about that. The second point, though, is we completely agree with you that BlueCruise is a transformative experience. BlueCruise, for the Mach-E customers, we sold 88% of customers with the hardware already embedded and enabled for an activation later on. We think that that transformative experience is going to have long tails in our services strategy, and we expect that the take rates will be north of 85% adoption by 2030, broadly across our fleet. Okay. Thank you, Alex. Our next question is from Jeoffrey Lambujon from Tudor, Pickering. Welcome. Morning, everyone. Thanks for taking my question. I've got one on batteries, and I guess more specifically, manufacturing. As you think about Solid Power, which looks like it's moving towards testing commercialization, and as we keep in mind what you all talked about in terms of developing solid-state internally as well, could you expand a bit more about the flexibility of manufacturing capacity over time? I know you talked a bit about being able to reuse a large portion of some of the CapEx, but we're just trying to get a better sense for how easy it would be to integrate new developments over time with the capacity you're building out, especially as we think about the meaningful gains that could be had over the medium term with solid-state. Thanks. Yeah, thank you for that question. This is clearly a key consideration with our strategy, and it underpins a lot of the thinking behind the BlueOval SK partnership. Look, in this business, the asset and capital intensity of battery manufacturing is very high. What we wanted to do was provide the business with the optionality and to really think about future-proofing the business. We've seen this play out, right? There is a large manufacturer in Japan that vertically integrated with nickel metal hydride batteries for hybrid vehicles. They made substantial investments, and then they were unable to switch when the market switched to lithium-ion. They were among the last to change over. That was something we wanted to avoid. When we selected Solid Power, it was because they met all the functional requirements in terms of energy densities, stability, the durability over different charge cycles. Most importantly, it was because they were able to demonstrate the ability to scale up to a large format battery that we can actually use in automotive. Their manufacturing process is a continuous flow process that has very high overlap with the process that we're putting in place with our joint venture partner in the BlueOval SK partnership. The ability to reuse those assets up to 70% gives us that optionality and future-proofs our business and allows us to maximize that capacity that we're putting in. That's exactly the way we're thinking about it. Okay. Thanks, Hau. Our last question is going to be from Jairam Nathan from Daiwa. Thanks for taking my question. My first question was regarding what kind of government subsidy environment are you assuming in terms of profitability and penetration? Secondly, can you just update us. How should we look at cash conversion, free cash flow over the long term? Are there any goals have you set for that? Thanks. Jim, you want me to take the cash first? Yeah. Yeah, thanks. Great question. When you look at 2023, our 8% EBIT target, you should be thinking about a 50%-60% EBIT to free cash flow conversion target. I'd be in that range. That's what we're targeting and we're aiming to deliver. The 40% assumes today's sponsorship from the government, all the current program. We're not assuming any radical change. Again, as Hau and Lisa said, that 40% is our intent in the company. We're capacitizing that. That's a product range we've invested in. We're not waiting for governments to change people's minds. We're going to do that ourselves. That's why we've done what we've done on F-150 Lightning, leaning into high volume segments that are profitable, where we have huge scale for the 50% that isn't electrified, as Lisa said. That's our strategy. We're really counting on the current environment. Okay, thank you. Thank you for attending. Thank you, Jim. Before we turn it over to Jim for closing comments, we have many thousands of people tuned into this webcast, and we will be posting the respective sessions as soon as we're done with the Q&A so you can re-watch them. A summarized web deck will be posted at a later time, as well as the transcript. If you want to get information right now that was said in the presentations, I suggest you go back and look at each of the sections, which will be up as soon as we're done with the Q&A session. Jim, it's all yours. Okay. Well, thank you so much. Lynn, I want to personally thank you and your team for an amazing job to really bring our Ford+ plan to life for everyone. Just terrific. I want to thank all of you for spending this time with us today. It's a big deal for us. We don't underestimate the challenge of fundamentally transforming a company like Ford. I can tell you, this is the team. We have the conviction and the know-how to get this done. It starts with running a great day-to-day business that generates strong profits and cash flow needed to fund this terrific growth plan. I'm most excited about what Ford+ means to our customers. A new, much better experience that pairs those world-class, iconic, and we would say passionate vehicles with whole new connected human-centered solutions that improve every day, all the time, not just occasionally when you purchase. We will have more than 33 million fully connected vehicles on the road by 2028 as we scale up quickly and offer benefits of the BlueOval Intelligence electrical architecture to our customers around the world. This, of course, means we must continue to build data and software expertise on a scale never before achieved in our industry, and we are excited to do just that, as well as integrate a lot of new talent and partners into our storied company. We've established Ford Pro. It's a big bet. It's a high-growth, high-margin commercial vehicle business that would be a Fortune 100 company on its own today, and a Fortune 50 company just a few years from now on its own. Again, it's the best products paired with digital tools that enable those commercial customers to run their businesses more successfully. We are committed to leading the electric revolution in areas where we are strong. We don't have to wait till tomorrow. We have the Mustang Mach-E out today. It's sold out in Western Europe and North America. We have the F-150 Lightning coming just a few months away, as well as the E-Transit by the end of this year. It's a great lineup. We continue to electrify our strongest franchise products, and you'll see this come to life in the near future. We have developed an in-house R&D proprietary IonBoost technology and a manufacturing plan to deliver world-class batteries, including solid state, by the end of this decade. This initial investment period in Ford+ will deliver lower costs, greater returns, stronger loyalty across our retail and commercial customers, and eventually, AV services. This is our plan, and it's a very different investment thesis from our competition. It's all in the service of our enduring purpose: to help build a better world where everyone, every person, is free to move and pursue their dreams. We look forward to providing frequent updates as we continue to create value for our investors, all of our stakeholders in this storied and wonderful company, Ford. Thank you so much.
