Ford has raised its profit forecast for the second time this year, citing strong demand in the United States. The company now expects an operating profit of $10–$11 billion for 2026, up from a previous target of $8.5–$10.5 billion. Despite this positive outlook, Ford reported an overall net loss of $1.3 billion due to the dissolution of a joint venture with SK On. The company’s core operational profit increased by nearly 20% in the second quarter to $2.5 billion, helped by strong customer demand. However, Ford continues to face challenges in its electric vehicle and software division, which recorded a loss of $919 million in the second quarter and is expected to result in a total annual loss of around $4 billion. Sales of electric vehicles in the U.S. dropped by over 57% during the first half of the year.
