The higher sales largely reflects:\n* the launch of new programs during or subsequent to the second quarter of\n2025, including complete vehicle programs with value-added contractual\narrangements; and\n* the net strengthening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, which\nincreased reported U.S. dollar sales by $172 million.\nThese factors were partially offset by:\n* the end of production of certain programs;\n* lower light vehicle production in North America, Europe and China;\n* lower engineering revenue, primarily in our Complete Vehicles segment; and\n* net customer price concessions as compared to the prior year.\nAdjusted EBIT increased 16% to $677 million for the second quarter of 2026\ncompared to $583 million for the second quarter of 2025, primarily due to:\n* productivity and efficiency improvements, including the benefit of\noperational excellence initiatives and prior restructuring actions;\n* net transactional foreign exchange gains in the second quarter of 2026,\ncompared to net transactional foreign exchange losses in the second quarter of\n2025;\n* earnings on higher organic sales; and\n* recoveries for tariffs, net of costs incurred.\nThese factors were partially offset by:\n* the net unfavourable impact of commercial items;\n* net unfavourable product mix; and\n* higher commodity costs, partially offset by higher scrap recoveries.\nIncome from operations before income taxes was $599 million in the second\nquarter of 2026, up $103 million or 21% compared to the second quarter of\n2025. Income from operations before income taxes includes Other expense,\nnet((2)) and Amortization of acquired intangible assets totaling $41 million\nand $35 million in the second quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively.\nExcluding Other expense, net and Amortization of acquired intangible assets\nfrom both periods, income from operations before income taxes in the second\nquarter of 2026 increased $109 million or 21% compared to the second quarter\nof 2025, largely reflecting the increase in Adjusted EBIT.\n\nNet income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $469 million for the\nsecond quarter of 2026 compared to $379 million in the second quarter of 2025.\nExcluding Other expense, net, after tax and Amortization of acquired\nintangibles from both periods, net income attributable to Magna International\nInc. was $508 million in the second quarter of 2026 compared to $407 million\nin the second quarter of 2025.\n\nDiluted earnings per share were $1.72 in the second quarter of 2026, an\nincrease of 27% from the comparable period. Adjusted EPS were $1.86, a record\nfor the second quarter, compared to $1.44 for the second quarter of last year,\nan increase of 29%. The increase in Adjusted EPS primarily reflects the impact\nof higher Adjusted EBIT and a decrease in average diluted shares outstanding\nresulting from share repurchases over the past 12 months.\n\nIn the second quarter of 2026, we generated cash from operations of $954\nmillion, and Free Cash Flow of $617 million.\n\n((2) Other expense, net is comprised of restructuring activities, loss on\nassets held for sale, impacts related to Fisker, and gain on investment during\nthe three months ended June 30, 2026 & 2025.

The higher sales largely reflects:\n* the net strengthening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, which\nincreased reported U.S. dollar sales by $692 million; and\n* the launch of new programs during or subsequent to the first half of 2025,\nincluding complete vehicle programs with value-added contractual arrangements.\nThese factors were partially offset by:\n* the end of production of certain programs;\n* lower light vehicle production in North America, Europe and China;\n* lower complete vehicle assembly volumes with full-cost contractual\narrangements;\n* lower engineering revenue, primarily in our Complete Vehicles segment; and\n* net customer price concessions subsequent to the second half of 2025.\nAdjusted EBIT increased 32% to $1.2 billion for the six months ended June 30,\n2026 compared to $937 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 primarily\ndue to:\n* productivity and efficiency improvements, including the benefit of\noperational excellence initiatives and prior restructuring actions;\n* higher equity income, including favourable commercial items in our Power &\nVision segment;\n* net transactional foreign exchange gains in the first six months of 2026,\ncompared to net transactional foreign exchange losses in the first six months\nof 2025;\n* earnings on higher organic sales;\n* the net strengthening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, which\nhad a favourable impact on reported U.S. dollar Adjusted EBIT; and\n* lower warranty costs.\nThese factors were partially offset by:\n* net unfavourable product mix;\n* lower income on lower engineering revenue;\n* higher incentive and stock-based compensation and employee profit sharing;\nand\n* the net unfavourable impact of commercial items.\nDuring the six months ended June 30, 2026, income from operations before\nincome taxes was $686 million, down $35 million or 5% from the prior year.\nIncome from operations before income taxes includes Other expense, net((2))\nand Amortization of acquired intangible assets totaling $475 million and $114\nmillion in the first six months of 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Adjusted diluted earnings\nper share were $3.24, compared to $2.22 for the six months ended June 30,\n2025. The increase in Adjusted EPS primarily reflects the impact of higher\nadjusted EBIT and a decrease in average diluted shares outstanding resulting\nfrom share repurchases over the past 12 months.\n\nDuring the six months ended June 30, 2026, we generated cash from operations\nof $1.6 billion. Free Cash Flow was $989 million in the period, including\nbalance sheet-related customer recoveries for contract adjustments associated\nwith certain electric vehicle programs in North America.\n\nRETURN OF CAPITAL TO SHAREHOLDERS AND OTHER MATTERS\n\nDuring the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we paid dividends of $133\nmillion and $268 million, respectively.

Compared to our\nprevious Outlook (May 2026), Sales have been updated primarily to reflect\nunfavourable foreign currency translation resulting from a stronger U.S.\ndollar and the earlier-than-expected completion of the Lighting and Rooftop\nSystems divestitures. Magna is increasing its Outlook for Adjusted EBIT\nMargin, Adjusted EPS, and Free Cash Flow, reflecting strong first-half results\nand expectations for continued solid execution through the remainder of the\nyear.\n\nUpdated 2026 Outlook:\n\n                                                                                   Current                                                                                Previous                                                                                \n Segment Sales                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    \n Body Exteriors & Structures Power & Vision Seating Systems Complete Vehicles      $16.6 -

Although considered\nreasonable by Magna as of the date of this document, the 2026 Outlook above\nand the underlying assumptions may prove to be inaccurate. Accordingly, our\nactual results could differ materially from our expectations as set forth\nherein. The risks identified in the “Forward-Looking Statements” section\nbelow represent the primary factors which we believe could cause actual\nresults to differ materially from our expectations.\n\nKEY DRIVERS OF OUR BUSINESS\n\nOur business and operating results are dependent on light vehicle production\nby our customers in three key regions – North America, Europe, and China.\nWhile we supply systems and components to many OEMs globally, we do not supply\nsystems and components for every vehicle, nor is the value of our content\nconsistent from one vehicle to the next. As a result, customer and program mix\nrelative to market trends, as well as the value of our content on specific\nvehicle production programs, are also important drivers of our results.\n\nOrdinarily, OEM production volumes are aligned with vehicle sales levels and\nthus affected by changes in such levels. Aside from vehicle sales levels,\nproduction volumes are typically impacted by a range of factors, including:\ngeopolitical factors, such as military conflicts and tariffs; supply chains,\nincluding disruption to supply of and/or increased costs of steel, aluminum,\nresin, and energy supplies, as well as semiconductor and memory (DRAM) chips;\nOEM, supplier or sub-supplier disruptions; relative currency values; commodity\nprices; labour disruptions, as well as the availability and relative cost of\nskilled labour; regulatory frameworks; and other factors.\n\nOverall vehicle sales levels are significantly affected by changes in consumer\nconfidence levels, which may in turn be impacted by consumer perceptions and\ngeneral trends related to the job, housing, and stock markets, as well as\nother macroeconomic and political factors. Other factors which typically\nimpact vehicle sales levels and thus production volumes include: vehicle\naffordability; interest rates and/or availability of credit; fuel and energy\nprices; relative currency values; and considerations applicable to EVs,\nincluding EV range, charging infrastructure, and electricity pricing.\n\nNON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES RECONCILIATION\n\nIn addition to the financial results reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP,\nthis press release contains references to the Non-GAAP financial measures\nreconciled below. We believe the Non-GAAP financial measures used in this\npress release are useful to both management and investors in their analysis of\nthe Company’s financial position and results of operations, and to improve\ncomparability between fiscal periods. In particular, management believes that\nAdjusted EBIT and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are useful measures in\nassessing the Company’s financial performance by excluding certain items\nthat are not indicative of the Company's core operating performance.\nManagement also believes that Free Cash Flow is a useful measure in assessing\nthe Company’s ability to generate cash to maintain operations and repay its\ndebt. The presentation of Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered\nin isolation, or as a substitute for the Company’s related financial results\nprepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.\n\nThe

Adjusted EPS were $1.86, a record\nfor the second quarter, compared to $1.44 for the second quarter of last year,\nan increase of 29%. The increase in Adjusted EPS primarily reflects the impact\nof higher Adjusted EBIT and a decrease in average diluted shares outstanding\nresulting from share repurchases over the past 12 months.\n\nIn the second quarter of 2026, we generated cash from operations of $954\nmillion, and Free Cash Flow of $617 million.\n\n((2) Other expense, net is comprised of restructuring activities, loss on\nassets held for sale, impacts related to Fisker, and gain on investment during\nthe three months ended June 30, 2026 & 2025.

Adjusted diluted earnings\nper share were $3.24, compared to $2.22 for the six months ended June 30,\n2025. The increase in Adjusted EPS primarily reflects the impact of higher\nadjusted EBIT and a decrease in average diluted shares outstanding resulting\nfrom share repurchases over the past 12 months.\n\nDuring the six months ended June 30, 2026, we generated cash from operations\nof $1.6 billion.

Although considered\nreasonable by Magna as of the date of this document, the 2026 Outlook above\nand the underlying assumptions may prove to be inaccurate. Accordingly, our\nactual results could differ materially from our expectations as set forth\nherein. The risks identified in the “Forward-Looking Statements” section\nbelow represent the primary factors which we believe could cause actual\nresults to differ materially from our expectations.\n\nKEY DRIVERS OF OUR BUSINESS\n\nOur business and operating results are dependent on light vehicle production\nby our customers in three key regions – North America, Europe, and China.\nWhile we supply systems and components to many OEMs globally, we do not supply\nsystems and components for every vehicle, nor is the value of our content\nconsistent from one vehicle to the next. As a result, customer and program mix\nrelative to market trends, as well as the value of our content on specific\nvehicle production programs, are also important drivers of our results.\n\nOrdinarily, OEM production volumes are aligned with vehicle sales levels and\nthus affected by changes in such levels. Aside from vehicle sales levels,\nproduction volumes are typically impacted by a range of factors, including:\ngeopolitical factors, such as military conflicts and tariffs; supply chains,\nincluding disruption to supply of and/or increased costs of steel, aluminum,\nresin, and energy supplies, as well as semiconductor and memory (DRAM) chips;\nOEM, supplier or sub-supplier disruptions; relative currency values; commodity\nprices; labour disruptions, as well as the availability and relative cost of\nskilled labour; regulatory frameworks; and other factors.\n\nOverall vehicle sales levels are significantly affected by changes in consumer\nconfidence levels, which may in turn be impacted by consumer perceptions and\ngeneral trends related to the job, housing, and stock markets, as well as\nother macroeconomic and political factors. Other factors which typically\nimpact vehicle sales levels and thus production volumes include: vehicle\naffordability; interest rates and/or availability of credit; fuel and energy\nprices; relative currency values; and considerations applicable to EVs,\nincluding EV range, charging infrastructure, and electricity pricing.\n\nNON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES RECONCILIATION\n\nIn addition to the financial results reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP,\nthis press release contains references to the Non-GAAP financial measures\nreconciled below. We believe the Non-GAAP financial measures used in this\npress release are useful to both management and investors in their analysis of\nthe Company’s financial position and results of operations, and to improve\ncomparability between fiscal periods. In particular, management believes that\nAdjusted EBIT and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are useful measures in\nassessing the Company’s financial performance by excluding certain items\nthat are not indicative of the Company's core operating performance.\nManagement also believes that Free Cash Flow is a useful measure in assessing\nthe Company’s ability to generate cash to maintain operations and repay its\ndebt. The presentation of Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered\nin isolation, or as a substitute for the Company’s related financial results\nprepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.\n\nThe following table reconciles Net income to Adjusted EBIT:\n\n Adjusted EBIT
