Item 12. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
GMAC SECOND QUARTER 2004 EARNINGS SUMMARY
General Motors Acceptance Corporation (GMAC) recorded its highest-ever quarterly
earnings in the second quarter of 2004. Consolidated net income of $860 million
was up $26 million from the $834 million earned in the same quarter of 2003.
For the quarter, net income from financing operations totaled $452 million, up
$56 million from the $396 million earned in the prior year. The increase
reflects lower credit losses and improved off-lease remarketing results, which
more than offset the unfavorable impact of lower net interest margins.
GMAC Insurance Holdings, Inc. earned $75 million in the second quarter of 2004,
up $52 million from the same period in 2003. The increase reflects continued
growth in underwriting income and improved investment portfolio performance in
2004.
GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. earned $333 million, down $82 million from last year's
record. The decline reflects lower mortgage volume versus the prior year and
decreased pricing margins, somewhat offset by higher earning assets.
