GENERAL MOTORS FINANCIAL COMPANY, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our consolidated subsidiaries, including certain special purpose entities (SPEs) utilized in secured financing transactions, which are considered variable interest entities (VIEs). All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
On October 31, 2017, we completed the sale of certain of our European subsidiaries and branches (collectively, our European Operations) to Banque PSA Finance S.A. and BNP Paribas Personal Finance S.A. The European Operations are presented as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. Refer to Note 12 for additional details regarding our disposal of these operations. Unless otherwise indicated, information in these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements relates to our continuing operations.
The condensed consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, are condensed and do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States of America. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements that are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 6, 2018 (Form 10-K). Except as otherwise specified, dollar amounts presented within tables are stated in millions.
The condensed consolidated financial statements at June 30, 2018, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, are unaudited and, in management’s opinion, include all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments and transactions or events discretely impacting the interim periods, considered necessary by management to fairly state our results of operations. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2017, was derived from audited annual financial statements.
Segment Information We are the wholly-owned captive finance subsidiary of General Motors Company (GM). We offer substantially similar products and services throughout many different regions, subject to local regulations and market conditions. We evaluate our business in two operating segments: North America (the North America Segment) and International (the International Segment). Our North America Segment includes operations in the U.S. and Canada. Our International Segment includes operations in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Peru, as well as our equity investment in SAIC-GMAC Automotive Finance Company Limited (SAIC-GMAC), a joint venture that conducts automobile finance operations in China.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASU 2014-09) as amended, as incorporated into Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, on a modified retrospective basis by recognizing a cumulative effect adjustment of $33 million as an increase to the opening balance of retained earnings. Under the new standard, commission revenue and expenses related to certain retail finance receivables that were previously recognized as earned or incurred ratably over the term of the related receivables will now be recognized in full at the origination of the receivables.
Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2018-02, "Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income" (ASU 2018-02). ASU 2018-02 provides the option to reclassify stranded tax effects related to the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 in accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The cumulative effect of the adjustments to the opening balance of retained earnings for the adopted standard was insignificant.
Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities" (ASU 2017-12), on a modified retrospective basis, which is intended to facilitate financial reporting that more closely reflects risk management activities and simplifies the application of hedge accounting. Changes to the new guidance include expanded disclosures regarding the types of risk management strategies eligible for hedge accounting, simplifying the documentation and effectiveness assessment requirements, changing how ineffectiveness is measured, and changing the presentation and disclosure requirements for hedge accounting activities. The cumulative effect of the adjustments to the opening balance of retained earnings for the adopted standard was insignificant.
The following change to our derivative accounting policy became effective upon adoption of ASU 2017-12:
Certain interest rate swap and foreign currency swap agreements have been designated as cash flow hedges. The risk being hedged is the foreign currency and interest rate risk related to forecasted transactions. If the contract has been designated as a cash flow hedge, the change in the fair value of the cash flow hedge is deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss and is recognized in interest, operating and other expenses along with the earnings effect of the hedged item when the hedged item affects earnings.

GENERAL MOTORS FINANCIAL COMPANY, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

Changes in the fair value of amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recorded currently in earnings and are presented in the same income statement line as the earnings effect of the hedged item.
Note 2. Related Party Transactions
We offer loan and lease finance products through GM-franchised dealers to customers purchasing new vehicles manufactured by GM and certain used vehicles and make commercial loans directly to GM-franchised dealers and their affiliates. We also offer commercial loans to dealers that are consolidated by GM and those balances are included in our finance receivables, net.
Under subvention programs, GM makes cash payments to us for offering incentivized rates and structures on retail loan and lease finance products. In addition, GM makes cash payments to us to cover certain interest payments on commercial loans. The balance in subvention receivable increased from December 31, 2017 due to a re-timing of cash payments from GM.
We purchase certain program vehicles from GM subsidiaries. We simultaneously lease these vehicles to those subsidiaries for use primarily in their ride-sharing arrangements. We account for these leases as direct-financing leases, which are included in our finance receivables, net.
We periodically purchase finance receivables from other GM subsidiaries for vehicles sold to rental car companies and for vehicles sold to certain dealerships. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we purchased $280 million of these receivables from GM.
We have related party payables due to GM, primarily for commercial finance receivables originated but not yet funded.

(a)
Included in finance receivables, net.
(b)
Included in related party receivables. We received subvention payments from GM of $1.1 billion and $1.2 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, and $1.7 billion and $2.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.
(c)
Included in related party payables.
(d)
Included in finance charge income.
(e)

Under the support agreement with GM (the Support Agreement), if our earning assets leverage ratio at the end of any calendar quarter exceeds the applicable threshold set in the Support Agreement, we may require GM to provide funding sufficient to bring our earning assets leverage ratio to within the applicable threshold. In determining our earning assets leverage ratio (net earning assets divided by adjusted equity) under the Support Agreement, net earning assets means our finance receivables, net, plus leased vehicles, net, and adjusted equity means our equity, net of goodwill and inclusive of outstanding junior subordinated debt, as each may be adjusted for derivative accounting from time to time.
Additionally, the Support Agreement provides that GM will own all of our outstanding voting shares as long as we have any unsecured debt securities outstanding. GM also agreed to certain provisions in the Support Agreement intended to ensure that we maintain adequate access to liquidity. Pursuant to these provisions, GM provided us with a $1.0 billion junior subordinated unsecured intercompany revolving credit facility (the Junior Subordinated Revolving Credit Facility), and GM agreed to use commercially

reasonable efforts to ensure that we will continue to be designated as a subsidiary borrower under GM's corporate revolving credit facilities.
On April 18, 2018, GM amended and restated its revolving credit facilities, consisting of a three-year, $4.0 billion facility and a five-year, $10.5 billion facility, and added a 364-day, $2.0 billion facility (the GM Revolving 364-Day Credit Facility). Also on April 18, 2018, we and GM amended the Support Agreement to, among other things, allow for irrevocable and exclusive access by us of no less than $2.0 billion of the GM Revolving 364-Day Credit Facility to support our liquidity. At June 30, 2018, we had no amounts borrowed under these facilities.
We are included in GM's consolidated U.S. federal income tax returns. For taxable income we recognize in any period beginning on or after October 1, 2010, we are obligated to pay GM for our share of the consolidated U.S. federal and certain state tax liabilities. Amounts owed to GM for income taxes are accrued and recorded as a related party payable. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there are no related party taxes payable to GM.

(a) Net of unearned income, unamortized premiums and discounts, and deferred fees and costs of $184 million and $228 million at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
We estimate the fair value of retail finance receivables using observable and unobservable Level 3 inputs within a cash flow model. The inputs reflect assumptions regarding expected prepayments, deferrals, delinquencies, recoveries and charge-offs of the loans within the portfolio. The cash flow model produces an estimated amortization schedule of the finance receivables. The projected cash flows are then discounted to derive the fair value of the portfolio. Macroeconomic factors could affect the credit performance of the portfolio and, therefore, could potentially affect the assumptions used in our cash flow model. A substantial majority of our commercial finance receivables have variable interest rates. The carrying amount, a Level 2 input, is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Retail Credit Quality Our retail finance receivables portfolio includes loans made to consumers and businesses to finance the purchase of vehicles for personal and commercial use. We use proprietary scoring systems in the underwriting process that measure the credit quality of the receivables using several factors, such as credit bureau information, consumer credit risk scores (e.g. FICO score or its equivalent), and contract characteristics. We also consider other factors, such as employment history, financial stability and capacity to pay. A summary of the credit risk profile by FICO score band or equivalent scores, determined at origination, of the retail finance receivables is as follows:

In addition, we review the credit quality of our retail finance receivables based on customer payment activity. A retail account is considered delinquent if a substantial portion of a scheduled payment has not been received by the date such payment was contractually due. Retail finance receivables are collateralized by vehicle titles and, subject to local laws, we generally have the right to repossess the vehicle in the event the customer defaults on the payment terms of the contract. The following is a consolidated summary of the contractual amounts of delinquent retail finance receivables, which is not significantly different than the recorded investment for such receivables.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

Impaired Retail Finance Receivables - TDRs Retail finance receivables that become classified as troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) are separately assessed for impairment. A specific allowance is estimated based on the present value of the expected future cash flows of the receivable discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate. Accounts that become classified as TDRs because of a payment deferral accrue interest at the contractual rate and an additional fee is collected (where permitted) at each time of deferral and recorded as a reduction of accrued interest. No interest or fees are forgiven on a payment deferral to a customer; therefore, there are no additional financial effects of deferred loans becoming classified as TDRs. Accounts in the U.S. in Chapter 13 bankruptcy would have already been placed on non-accrual; therefore, there are no additional financial effects from these loans becoming classified as TDRs. Finance charge income from loans classified as TDRs is accounted for in the same manner as other accruing loans. Cash collections on these loans are allocated according to the same payment hierarchy methodology applied to loans that are not classified as TDRs.
The outstanding recorded investment for retail finance receivables that are considered to be TDRs and the related allowance is presented below:

Commercial Finance Receivables
Commercial Credit Quality Our commercial finance receivables consist of dealer financings, primarily for inventory purchases. Proprietary models are used to assign a risk rating to each dealer. We perform periodic credit reviews of each dealership and adjust the dealership's risk rating, if necessary. Dealers in Group VI are subject to additional restrictions on funding, including suspension of lines of credit and liquidation of assets.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

The fair value of our debt measured utilizing Level 2 inputs was based on quoted market prices for identical instruments and if unavailable, quoted market prices of similar instruments. For debt with original maturity or revolving period of eighteen months or less, par value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of our debt measured utilizing Level 3 inputs was based on the discounted future net cash flows expected to be settled using current risk-adjusted rates.
Secured Debt Most of the secured debt was issued by VIEs and is repayable only from proceeds related to the underlying pledged assets. Refer to Note 7 for further discussion.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we entered into new credit facilities or renewed credit facilities with a total net additional borrowing capacity of $161 million, and we issued $10.3 billion in aggregate principal amount of securitization notes payable with an initial weighted average interest rate of 2.81% and legal final maturity dates ranging from 2022 to 2025.
Unsecured Debt During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we issued $7.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior notes with an initial weighted average interest rate of 3.12% and maturity dates ranging from 2021 to 2028.
General Motors Financial Company, Inc. is the sole guarantor of its subsidiaries' obligations under the senior unsecured notes that require a guarantee.
Compliance with Debt Covenants Several of our revolving credit facilities require compliance with certain financial and operational covenants as well as regular reporting to lenders, including providing certain subsidiary financial statements. Certain of our secured debt agreements also contain various covenants, including maintaining portfolio performance ratios as well as limits on deferment levels. Our unsecured senior notes contain covenants including limitations on our ability to incur certain liens. At June 30, 2018, we were in compliance with these debt covenants.

(a) Included in other assets.
These amounts are related to securitization and credit facilities held by consolidated VIEs. Our continuing involvement with these VIEs consists of servicing assets held by the entities and holding residual interests in the entities. We have determined that we are the primary beneficiary of each VIE because we hold both (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact the VIEs' economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses from and the right to receive benefits of the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. We are not required, and do not currently intend, to provide any additional financial support to these VIEs. Liabilities recognized as a result of consolidating these entities generally do not represent claims against us or our other subsidiaries and assets recognized generally are for the benefit of these entities operations and cannot be used to satisfy our or our other subsidiaries' obligations.

Note 8. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions. We manage economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, we enter into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Our derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of our known or expected cash receipts and our known or expected cash payments principally related to our borrowings.
Certain of our foreign operations expose us to fluctuations of foreign interest rates and exchange rates. We primarily finance our earning assets with debt in the same currency to minimize the impact to earnings from our exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates. When we use a different currency, these fluctuations may impact the value of our cash receipts and payments in terms of our functional currency. We enter into derivative financial instruments to protect the value or fix the amount of certain assets and liabilities in terms of the relevant functional currency. The table below presents the gross amounts of fair value of our derivative instruments and the associated notional amounts:

 _________________
(a)
The gross amounts of the fair value of our assets and liabilities are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively. Amounts accrued for interest payments in a net receivable position are included in other assets. All our derivatives are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value for Level 2 instruments was derived using the market approach based on observable market inputs including quoted prices of similar instruments and foreign exchange and interest rate forward curves.
(b)
We primarily enter into derivatives contracts through AmeriCredit Financial Services, Inc. (AFSI); however our SPEs may also be parties to derivative transactions. Agreements between AFSI and its derivative counterparties include rights of setoff for positions with offsetting values or for collateral held or posted. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the fair value of assets and liabilities available for offset was $463 million and $284 million. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we held $57 million and $25 million and posted $593 million and $299 million of collateral available for netting.

Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies
Guarantees of Indebtedness At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we guaranteed approximately $1.2 billion and $2.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of Euro Medium Term Notes issued by General Motors Financial International B.V., our former subsidiary, pursuant to our Euro Medium Term Note Programme. Subject to the terms and conditions of a letter agreement entered into with BNP Paribas in connection with the sale of certain of our European Operations on October 31, 2017, BNP Paribas has agreed to pay to us any amount that we may pay under any such guarantees.
Legal Proceedings We are subject to various pending and potential legal and regulatory proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including litigation, arbitration, claims, investigations, examinations, subpoenas and enforcement proceedings. Some litigation against us could take the form of class actions. The outcome of these proceedings is inherently uncertain, and thus we cannot confidently predict how or when proceedings will be resolved. An adverse outcome in one or more of these proceedings could result in substantial damages, settlements, fines, penalties, diminished income or reputational harm. We identify below the material proceedings in connection with which we believe a material loss is reasonably possible or probable.
In accordance with the current accounting standards for loss contingencies, we establish reserves for legal matters when it is probable that a loss associated with the matter has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The actual costs of resolving legal matters may be higher or lower than any amounts reserved for these matters. At June 30, 2018, we estimated our reasonably possible legal exposure for unfavorable outcomes is up to $56 million, and have accrued $18 million.
In 2014 and 2015, we were served with investigative subpoenas from various state attorneys general and other governmental offices to produce documents and data relating to our automobile loan and lease business and securitization of loans and leases. We believe that we have cooperated fully with all reasonable requests for information.We are currently unable to estimate any reasonably possible loss or range of loss that may result from these investigations.
Other Administrative Tax Matters We accrue non-income tax liabilities for contingencies when management believes that a loss is probable and the amounts can be reasonably estimated, while contingent gains are recognized only when realized. In the event any losses are sustained in excess of accruals, they will be charged against income at that time.
In evaluating indirect tax matters, we take into consideration factors such as our historical experience with matters of similar nature, specific facts and circumstances, and the likelihood of prevailing. We reevaluate and update our accruals as matters progress over time. Where there is a reasonable possibility that losses exceeding amounts already recognized may be incurred, our estimate of the additional range of loss is up to $16 million as of June 30, 2018.

Note 11. Income Taxes
For interim income tax reporting we estimate our annual effective tax rate and apply it to our year-to-date ordinary income. Tax jurisdictions with a projected or year-to-date loss for which a tax benefit cannot be realized are excluded from the annualized effective tax rate. The tax effects of unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, are reported in the interim period in which they occur.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, income tax expense of $94 million and $168 million primarily resulted from tax expense attributable to entities included in our effective tax rate calculation. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, income tax expense of $86 million and $136 million primarily resulted from tax expense attributable to entities included in our effective tax rate calculation.
We are included in GM’s consolidated U.S. federal income tax return and for certain states’ income tax returns. Net operating losses and certain tax credits generated by us have been utilized by GM; however, income tax expense and deferred tax balances are presented in these financial statements as if we filed our own tax returns in each jurisdiction.
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the Act) was signed into law. The Act changed many aspects of U.S. corporate income taxation, including the reduction of the corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, implementation of a territorial tax system and imposition of a tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries. At December 31, 2017, we had not completed our accounting for the tax effects of enactment of the Act; however, we made a reasonable estimate of the effects on our existing deferred tax balances and the one-time transition tax. We will continue to assess our provision for income taxes as future guidance is issued, but do not currently anticipate significant revisions will be necessary. Any such revisions will be treated in accordance with the measurement period guidance outlined in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118. As of June 30, 2018, no material amounts have been identified.

Note 14. Regulatory Capital and Other Regulatory Matters
We are required to comply with a wide variety of laws and regulations. Certain of our entities operate in international markets as either banks or regulated finance companies that are subject to regulatory restrictions. These regulatory restrictions, among other things, require that certain of these entities meet minimum capital requirements and may restrict dividend distributions and ownership of certain assets. We were in compliance with all regulatory capital requirements as most recently reported. Total assets of our regulated international banks and finance companies were approximately $7.2 billion and $7.8 billion at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

Average finance receivables increased due to the volume of new loan originations in excess of principal collections and payoffs. Average commercial finance receivables increased due primarily to an increase in our GM-franchised dealer commercial lending relationships. The increase in average leased vehicles, net primarily resulted from our exclusive lease subvention arrangement in the U.S. with GM, which began in early calendar 2015. Our retail penetration in North America increased to 43% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from 41% for the corresponding period in 2017, primarily due to further alignment with GM and greater dealer engagement.

Finance charge income on retail finance receivables increased due to growth in the portfolio, partially offset by a decrease in effective yield. The effective yield on our retail finance receivables decreased due primarily to increased lending to borrowers with prime credit. The effective yield represents finance charges and fees recorded in earnings during the period as a percentage of average retail finance receivables. The effective yield, as a percentage of average retail finance receivables, is higher than the contractual rates of our auto finance contracts primarily because the effective yield includes, in addition to the contractual rates and fees, the impact of rate subvention provided by GM.

17

GENERAL MOTORS FINANCIAL COMPANY, INC.

Finance charge income on commercial finance receivables increased due to growth in the portfolio, including an increase in the number of dealers in our floorplan program, and due to an increase in the effective yield resulting from rising benchmark interest rates.
The increase in leased vehicle income reflects the growth of the leased asset portfolio.
The increase in other income is primarily due to (1) $16 million increase in investment income due to rising benchmark rates and (2) $14 million in revenue related to the administration of a vehicle purchase program, which is substantially offset in other operating expenses.

Operating Expenses The increase in operating expenses relates to the growth in earning assets and investments to support origination and servicing capabilities in the U.S. Operating expenses as an annualized percentage of average earning assets was 1.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.
Leased Vehicle Expenses Leased vehicle expenses, which are primarily comprised of depreciation of leased vehicles, increased due to the growth of the leased asset portfolio, offset by increased gains on sales of vehicles under terminated leases.
Provision for Loan Losses As an annualized percentage of average retail finance receivables, the provision for retail loan losses decreased to 1.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from 2.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2017, due primarily to a decrease in the loss confirmation period as well as an increase in our recovery rate forecast on repossessed vehicles. The loss confirmation period change resulted from a shift in the credit mix of the portfolio to a larger percentage of prime loans. The loss confirmation period represents the average amount of time between when a loss event first occurs to when the receivable is charged off. The recovery rate forecast change reflects stronger than expected wholesale auction values for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The provision for commercial loan losses was insignificant for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.
Interest Expense Interest expense increased due primarily to an increase in the average debt outstanding resulting from growth in the loan and lease portfolios as well as rising benchmark rates.
Taxes Our consolidated effective income tax rate was 19.1% and 27.3% of income before income taxes and equity income for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The decrease in the effective income tax rate is due primarily to a favorable impact from the U.S. tax reform legislation.
Other Comprehensive Income
Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment Foreign currency translation adjustments included in other comprehensive (loss) income were $(245) million and $104 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. Translation adjustments resulted from changes in the values of our international currency-denominated assets and liabilities as the value of the U.S. Dollar changed in relation to international currencies, particularly the Brazilian Real and the Mexican Peso.

The increase in other income is primarily due to (1) $26 million increase in investment income due to rising benchmark rates, (2) $26 million increase in insurance revenue primarily due to a change in the timing of the recognition of commissions and (3) $14 million in revenue related to the administration of a vehicle purchase program, which is substantially offset in other operating expenses.

Operating Expenses The increase in operating expenses relates to the growth in earning assets and investments to support origination and servicing capabilities in the U.S. Operating expenses as an annualized percentage of average earning assets decreased to 1.7% from 1.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017, due primarily to efficiency gains achieved through higher earning asset levels.
Leased Vehicle Expenses Leased vehicle expenses, which are primarily comprised of depreciation of leased vehicles, increased due to the growth of the leased asset portfolio, partially offset by increased gains on sales of vehicles under terminated leases.
Provision for Loan Losses As an annualized percentage of average retail finance receivables, the provision for retail loan losses decreased to 1.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from 2.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2017, due primarily to a decrease in the loss confirmation period as well as an increase in our recovery rate forecast on repossessed vehicles. The loss confirmation period change resulted from a shift in the credit mix of the portfolio to a larger percentage of prime loans. The loss confirmation period represents the average amount of time between when a loss event first occurs to when the receivable is charged off. The recovery rate forecast change reflects stronger than expected wholesale auction values for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The provision for commercial loan losses was insignificant for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.
Interest Expense Interest expense increased due primarily to an increase in the average debt outstanding resulting from growth in the loan and lease portfolios as well as rising benchmark rates.
Taxes Our consolidated effective income tax rate was 19.0% and 27.4% of income before income taxes and equity income for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The decrease in the effective income tax rate is due primarily to a favorable impact from the U.S. tax reform legislation.
Other Comprehensive Income
Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment Foreign currency translation adjustments included in other comprehensive (loss) income were $(186) million and $198 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. Translation adjustments resulted from changes in the values of our international currency-denominated assets and liabilities as the value of the U.S. Dollar changed in relation to international currencies, particularly the Brazilian Real and the Mexican Peso.

Deferrals In accordance with our policies and guidelines, we, at times, offer payment deferrals to retail consumers, whereby the borrower is allowed to move up to two delinquent payments to the end of the loan generally by paying a fee (approximately the interest portion of the payment deferred, except where state law provides for a lesser amount). Our policies and guidelines limit the number and frequency of deferments that may be granted. Additionally, we generally limit the granting of deferments on new accounts until a requisite number of payments have been received. Contracts receiving a payment deferral as an average quarterly percentage of average retail finance receivables outstanding were 4.4% and 3.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 4.1% and 4.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

Net charge-offs as an annualized percentage is calculated as a percentage of average retail finance receivables.
The recovery rate as a percentage of gross repossession charge-offs in North America was 52.3% and 51.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 53.9% and 52.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. We revised our recovery rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018 from 53.1% to 50.9% due to the reclassification of $4 million in non-repossession recoveries.

The industry supply of used vehicles resulting from off-lease returns is expected to continue to increase through 2019. Based on recent pricing trends for used vehicles in the secondary market which have remained more favorable than previously expected, we now expect used vehicle prices in the U.S. to decline between 2% and 4% as compared to 2017.

Calculated as the number of operating leases returned divided by the number of operating leases terminated.
Operating leases terminated and operating lease vehicles returned increased due to the growth and maturity of the leased asset portfolio. Due to the current age and size of our lease portfolio, the current return rate is lower than we expect it to be in future periods as our lease portfolio grows and matures.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
General Our primary sources of cash are finance charge income, leasing income and proceeds from the sale of terminated leased vehicles, servicing fees, net distributions from credit facilities, securitizations, secured and unsecured borrowings and collections and recoveries on finance receivables. Our primary uses of cash are purchases of retail finance receivables and leased vehicles, the funding of commercial finance receivables, repayment of secured and unsecured debt, funding credit enhancement requirements in connection with securitizations and secured credit facilities, operating expenses, interest costs and preferred stock dividends.
Typically, our purchase and funding of retail and commercial finance receivables and leased vehicles are financed initially utilizing cash and borrowings on our secured credit facilities. Subsequently, we typically obtain long-term financing for finance receivables and leased vehicles through securitization transactions and the issuance of unsecured debt.
Cash Flow During the six months ended June 30, 2018, net cash provided by operating activities increased due primarily to an increase in leased vehicle income, partially offset by increased interest expense and increased operating expenses.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, net cash used in investing activities decreased due to an increase in proceeds received on terminated leases of $2.6 billion, increased collections and recoveries on retail finance receivables of $1.6 billion, a decrease in net fundings of commercial finance receivables of $1.2 billion and a decrease in purchases of leased vehicles of $0.8 billion, offset by an increase in purchases of retail finance receivables of $0.4 billion.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, net cash provided by financing activities decreased due primarily to a decrease in borrowings, net of repayments, of $8.8 billion.

Includes $485 million and $656 million in unrestricted cash outside of the U.S. at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. This cash is considered to be indefinitely invested based on specific plans for reinvestment of these earnings.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, available liquidity increased due primarily to an increase in receivables eligible to be pledged and a decrease in advances outstanding on secured revolving credit facilities. In addition, we added $2.0 billion in borrowing capacity on the GM Revolving 364-Day Credit Facility as described below.
Our Support Agreement with GM provides that GM will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that we will continue to be designated as a subsidiary borrower under GM's unsecured revolving credit facilities. In April 2018, GM amended and restated its revolving credit facilities, consisting of a three-year, $4.0 billion facility and a five-year, $10.5 billion facility, and added a 364-day, $2.0 billion facility. We have access to the entire $16.5 billion, subject to available capacity, with irrevocable and exclusive access to no less than $2.0 billion of the GM Revolving 364-Day Credit Facility to support our liquidity. At June 30, 2018, we had no borrowings outstanding under any of these facilities.
Credit Facilities In the normal course of business, in addition to using our available cash, we utilize borrowings under our credit facilities, which may be secured and/or structured as securitizations, or may be unsecured, and we repay these borrowings as appropriate under our liquidity management strategy.
At June 30, 2018, credit facilities consist of the following:

The earning assets leverage ratio decreased during the six months ended June 30, 2018 due to growth in earnings.
Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains several "forward-looking statements." Forward-looking statements are those that use words such as "believe," "expect," "intend," "plan," "may," "likely," "should," "estimate," "continue," "future" or "anticipate" and other comparable expressions. These words indicate future events and trends. Forward-looking statements are our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. These forward-looking statements are subject to many assumptions, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ significantly from historical results or from those anticipated by us. The most significant risks are detailed from time to time in our filings and reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. It is advisable not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to, and do not, publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, except as required by federal securities laws, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
The following factors are among those that may cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or from the forward-looking statements:
GM's ability to sell new vehicles that we finance in the markets we serve;
the viability of GM-franchised dealers that are commercial loan customers;
the availability and cost of sources of financing;
our joint venture in China, which we cannot operate solely for our benefit and over which we have limited control;
the level of net charge-offs, delinquencies and prepayments on the loans and leases we originate;
the effect, interpretation or application of new or existing laws, regulations, court decisions and accounting pronouncements;
the prices at which used vehicles are sold in the wholesale auction markets;
vehicle return rates and the residual value performance on vehicles we lease;
