Ford will rely on the earnings of Volvo to counterbalance the losses of Jaguar. Traditionally, Volvo earns between $800 million and $1.2 billion per year, but several new models should boost the brand’s results in 2007, especially in the US where sales have started to slow. PAG’s coffers will also receive an inflow of cash from the eventual sale of Aston Martin, which is expected to fetch in excess of $1 billion, though this figure won’t be added to the company’s profit results.
