THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2025

We posted sales of $10.1 billion for the first quarter of 2025, a decrease of 8% from the first quarter of 2024. The lower sales largely reflects a 3% decrease in global light vehicle production, including 8% and 5% lower production in Europe and North America, respectively, partially offset by 2% higher production in China. In addition, sales were negatively impacted by lower complete vehicle assembly volumes, including as a result of the end of production of the Jaguar I-Pace and E-Pace, the end of production of certain programs and the net weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar. These were partially offset by the launch of new programs.

Adjusted EBIT decreased to $354 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $469 million in the first quarter of 2024. This mainly reflects:

| · | reduced earnings on lower sales; and

| · | higher net warranty costs associated with our seating business.

These were partially offset by:

| · | higher net favourable commercial items;

| · | continued productivity and efficiency improvements; and

| · | lower net engineering costs, including spending related to our electrification and active safety businesses.

During the first quarter of 2025, Other expense, net(2) and Amortization of acquired intangibles totaled $79 million (2023 - $384 million) and on an after-tax basis $73 million (2023 - $302 million).

Income from operations before income taxes increased to $225 million for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $34 million in the first quarter of 2024. Excluding Other expense, net and Amortization of acquired intangibles from both periods, income from operations before income taxes decreased $114 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024, largely reflecting the decrease in Adjusted EBIT.

Net income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $146 million for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $9 million in the first quarter of 2024. Excluding Other expense, net, after tax and Amortization of acquired intangibles from both periods, net income attributable to Magna International Inc. decreased $92 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024.

Diluted earnings per share were $0.52 in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $0.03 in the comparable period. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.78, compared to $1.08 for the first quarter of 2024.

In the first quarter of 2025, we generated cash from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities of $547 million and used $470 million in operating assets and liabilities. Investment activities for the first quarter of 2025 included $268 million in fixed asset additions, $148 million in investments, other assets and intangible assets, $4 million for business combinations and $1 million in private equity investments.

RETURN OF CAPITAL TO SHAREHOLDERS

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we returned $187 million to shareholders, including $136 million in dividends and $51 million in share repurchases.

Our Board of Directors declared a first quarter dividend of $0.485 per Common Share, payable on May 30, 2025 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 16, 2025.

| (2) | Other expense, net is comprised of Fisker Inc. [“Fisker”] related impacts (restructuring and impairment of assembly and production assets, the impairment of Fisker warrants), revaluations of certain public company warrants and equity investments, and restructuring activities, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 & 2025. A reconciliation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is included in the back of this press release.

2025 OUTLOOK

We disclose a full-year Outlook annually in February with quarterly updates. The following Outlook is an update to our previous Outlook in February 2025.

Updated 2025 Outlook Assumptions

|  | Current |  | Previous
Light Vehicle Production (millions of units) |  |  |  |
North America |  | 15.0 |  | 15.1
Europe |  | 16.6 |  | 16.6

Light vehicle production assumptions reflect near-term original equipment manufacturer ["OEM"] production release information, including announced production downtime at certain OEM assembly facilities, but do not include the potential impact of tariffs and other trade measures on vehicle costs, vehicle affordability or consumer demand, nor the impact of these on vehicle production.

Updated 2025 Outlook

Segment Sales |  |  |  |
Body Exteriors & Structures |  | $15.9 - $16.5 billion |  | $15.7 - $16.3 billion

Capital Spending |  | $1.7 - $1.8 billion |  | Approximately $1.8 billion

Notes:

(3) | Adjusted EBIT Margin is the ratio of Adjusted EBIT to Total Sales. Refer to the reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures in the back of this press release for further information
(4) | Excludes unmitigated incremental tariff costs

| (5) | The Income Tax Rate has been calculated using Adjusted EBIT and is based on current tax legislation

Our Outlook is intended to provide information about management's current expectations and plans and may not be appropriate for other purposes. Although considered reasonable by Magna as of the date of this document, the 2025 Outlook above and the underlying assumptions may prove to be inaccurate. Accordingly, our actual results could differ materially from our expectations as set forth herein. The risks identified in the “Forward-Looking Statements” section below represent the primary factors which we believe could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations.

MAGNA ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2025 RESULTS | CONNECT WITH MAGNA | 4

KEY DRIVERS OF OUR BUSINESS

Our business and operating results are dependent on light vehicle production by our customers in three key regions – North America, Europe, and China. While we supply systems and components to many OEMs globally, we do not supply systems and components for every vehicle, nor is the value of our content consistent from one vehicle to the next. As a result, customer and program mix relative to market trends, as well as the value of our content on specific vehicle production programs, are also important drivers of our results.

Ordinarily, OEM production volumes are aligned with vehicle sales levels and thus affected by changes in such levels. Aside from vehicle sales levels, production volumes are typically impacted by a range of factors, including: OEM, supplier or sub-supplier disruptions; free trade arrangements and tariffs; relative currency values; commodities prices; supply chains and infrastructure; labour disruptions and the availability and relative cost of skilled labour; regulatory frameworks; and other factors.

Overall vehicle sales levels are significantly affected by changes in consumer confidence levels, which may in turn be impacted by consumer perceptions and general trends related to the job, housing, and stock markets, as well as other macroeconomic and political factors. Other factors which typically impact vehicle sales levels and thus production volumes include: vehicle affordability; interest rates and/or availability of credit; fuel and energy prices; relative currency values; uncertainty as to the pace of EV adoption; and other factors.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES RECONCILIATION

In addition to the financial results reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP, this press release contains references to the Non-GAAP financial measures reconciled below. We believe the Non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release are useful to both management and investors in their analysis of the Company’s financial position and results of operations, and to improve comparability between fiscal periods. In particular, management believes that Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are useful measures in assessing the Company’s financial performance by excluding certain items that are not indicative of the Company's core operating performance. The presentation of Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the Company’s related financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Certain of the forward-looking financial measures above are provided on a Non-GAAP basis. We do not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. To do so would be potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting items that are not reflective of on-going operations in any future period. The magnitude of these items, however, may be significant.
