The company still anticipates full-year growth in adjusted free cash flow, its most important financial measure, driven by Automotive. However, fourth-quarter headwinds - higher warranty costs, higher than planned incentives in North America, and lower volumes in China-have intensified since Ford last gave financial guidance for 2019. As a result, Ford is lowering its guidance for full-year company adjusted EBIT to between $6.5 billion and $7.0 billion, compared with $7.0 billion in 2018. Full-year adjusted EPS is now anticipated to be $1.20 to $1.32, versus $1.30 in 2018, with an adjusted effective tax rate of around 12 to 13 percent. Ford's guidance assumes no material change in the current economic environment. Including commodities, foreign exchange and tariffs. Actual results could differ materially from guidance due to risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those detailed in the company's Cautionary Note on Forward Looking Statements. nglish (United States) 2 Business Assignment 8 Information Ford Motor 22 ayout Mailings View Picture Format References Review .
