TSX gains after CPI shows US inflation rose 3%
DETROIT - General Motors Co. (NYSE:GM) announced Monday that its Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share on the company’s outstanding common stock. The company has maintained a strong track record of shareholder returns, having raised its dividend for three consecutive years, with the current annual dividend yield standing at 1.03%.
The dividend will be payable on December 18, 2025, to shareholders of record at the close of trading on December 5, 2025, according to a company press release. Based on InvestingPro’s Fair Value analysis, GM currently appears fairly valued, with the stock showing strong momentum, having gained over 31% in the past six months.
GM, which manufactures vehicles under the Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, and GMC brands, maintains its regular quarterly dividend payment schedule with this announcement.
The automaker’s dividend declaration comes as part of its ongoing capital allocation strategy. General Motors continues to operate in both the traditional gasoline-powered vehicle market while also developing electric vehicles.
This dividend announcement represents a continuation of GM’s established shareholder return program, maintaining the same dividend amount as previous quarters.
In other recent news, General Motors has announced a significant strategic shift, recording a $1.6 billion charge in its North American segment for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. This charge is linked to a realignment of its electric vehicle (EV) capacity and manufacturing footprint, prompted by recent changes in U.S. government policy. The company’s decision follows the termination of certain consumer tax incentives for EV purchases and a reduction in emissions regulations, which are expected to slow EV adoption rates. Additionally, the U.S. Energy Department is considering revoking nearly $1.1 billion in retooling grants awarded to General Motors and Stellantis, potentially impacting the company’s financial strategies.
Meanwhile, UBS has reiterated its Buy rating on General Motors, maintaining an $81.00 price target, indicating potential upside for the stock. The analysis from UBS suggests the market is not accounting for any margin recovery for the automaker. In a separate development, President Donald Trump is contemplating tariff relief for U.S. auto production, which could benefit major car companies, including General Motors. The potential policy change aims to reduce costs for companies with final assembly in the U.S.
