Total liabilities and equity demonstrate a long-term upward trajectory, increasing from 238.4 billion USD in March 2021 to 282.7 billion USD by June 2026. This expansion is primarily driven by a steady growth in total liabilities, which rose from 183.9 billion USD to 219.1 billion USD over the analyzed period, while total equity experienced more volatility, ending the period at 63.6 billion USD.

Current Liabilities and Short-Term Obligations
Current liabilities grew from 76.3 billion USD in March 2021 to 96.8 billion USD in June 2026. This growth is largely attributed to the expansion of GM Financial current liabilities, which increased from 59.8 billion USD to 75.2 billion USD. Accounts payable also trended upward, rising from 20.4 billion USD to 28.8 billion USD, indicating an increase in short-term trade obligations. Short-term debt and the current portion of long-term debt remained relatively stable but elevated, fluctuating between 32.3 billion USD and 39.4 billion USD.
Non-Current Liabilities and Long-Term Debt
Non-current liabilities increased from 107.6 billion USD to 122.3 billion USD. Long-term debt, excluding the current portion, served as a primary driver of this increase, rising from 76.2 billion USD in March 2021 to 90.7 billion USD by June 2026. Additionally, other non-current liabilities showed a consistent increase, growing from 13.2 billion USD to 23.1 billion USD.
Equity Structure and Retained Earnings
Total equity showed a period of growth followed by a contraction, peaking at 78.4 billion USD in September 2023 before declining to 63.6 billion USD by June 2026. Retained earnings trended generally higher, moving from 34.9 billion USD to 53.0 billion USD, despite a temporary decline in late 2024. A notable reduction occurred in additional paid-in capital, which dropped from approximately 26.1 billion USD in September 2023 to 19.1 billion USD by December 2023, remaining near that level through 2026.
Pension and Post-Retirement Obligations
A significant and consistent downward trend is observed in employee benefit obligations. Pension liabilities decreased from 12.1 billion USD in March 2021 to 4.5 billion USD in June 2026. Post-retirement benefits other than pensions followed a similar trajectory, declining from 6.2 billion USD to 3.9 billion USD over the same period, suggesting a systematic reduction in long-term benefit liabilities.
