11:39 AM EST, 01/29/2025 (MT Newswires) -- General Motors' ( GM ) strong guidance for 2025 after a Q4 beat solidifies the automaker's position for the year amid tariff concerns, Wedbush said Wednesday.

The company's 2025 guidance includes an adjusted earnings per share target of $11 to $12 and adjusted earnings before interest and taxes of $13.7 billion to $15.7 billion.

GM's outlook did not factor in the administration change, but the company has production flexibility across North America to quickly respond to potential tariffs on trucks from Mexico or Canada. While these tariffs pose long-term risks to profitability, GM's strong relationship with the US government helps it remain a key player in the domestic automotive supply chain, even with the threat of tariffs, according to Wedbush analysts, including Daniel Ives.

The company's Q4 results exceeded expectations as it optimized its internal combustion engine and electric vehicle portfolios, launching new models while sticking to a disciplined capital spending plan, the analysts added.

Wedbush has an outperform rating and a $60 price target on the company's stock.
