On October 1, 2010, the Company was acquired by General Motors Holdings LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of General Motors Company. The merger was accounted for under purchase accounting whereby the purchase price of the transaction was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon fair market values. As a result of the purchase price allocation, the carrying value of GM Financial’s net finance receivables, deferred tax assets, credit facilities, securitization notes payable and uncertain tax positions increased. Additionally, goodwill of approximately $1.1 billion was established. The consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended December 31, 2010, the period after the merger (labeled “Successor”), reflect the change in basis from the application of purchase accounting. The consolidated financial statements for the periods prior to the merger (labeled “Predecessor”), have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements included in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2010.
