Ford's Profitable Pro Segment Chief Ted Cannis To Retire
"Ted's energy and passion for customers has been instrumental in building Ford Pro into a business that's tracking towards $70 billion in revenue this year – a Fortune 100-size company in its own right," Ford CEO Ford Motor Co (NYSE:F) said on Thursday that its profitable Ford Pro segment's CEO Ted Cannis will retire at the end of the month.
福特汽車公司（紐交所：F）週四表示，其盈利能源業務部門首席執行官泰德·坎尼斯將於本月底退休。
What Happened: Cannis has been leading the commercial vehicle business segment since its formation in 2021. He will now be replaced by Ford Blue segment Andrew Frick on an interim basis until the appointment of a new CEO.
發生了什麼：坎尼斯自2021年成立以來一直領導商用車業務部門。他將由福特藍色部門的安德魯·弗裏克暫時接替，直到新首席執行官上任爲止。
Cannis joined Ford in 1989 and has spent over 35 years with the company. He was involved with the development of all the company's electric vehicle offerings in the U.S. and led the team that developed the company's Mustang Mach-E electric SUV.
坎尼斯於1989年加入福特，已在公司任職35多年。他參與開發了公司在美國的所有電動車型，並帶領團隊開發了公司的Mustang Mach-E電動SUV。
"Ted's energy and passion for customers has been instrumental in building Ford Pro into a business that's tracking towards $70 billion in revenue this year – a Fortune 100-size company in its own right," Ford CEO Jim Farley said.
「泰德對客戶的能量和熱情是將福特Pro打造成一個年營業額達700億美元（約合人民幣4559億元）的企業，構建成一個自身擁有財富100強公司規模的重要因素，」福特汽車公司首席執行官吉姆·法利表示。
Why It Matters: Ford Pro is a highly profitability segment for the company. For the second quarter, the company reported earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) of $2.6 billion for the segment, marking a year-on-year increase of 7%, and a margin of 15%. No other Ford segment had an EBIT margin as high in the last quarter.
爲什麼重要：福特Pro對公司來說是一個高度盈利的業務板塊。第二季度，公司報告稱該部門的利潤稅前利潤爲260億美元，同比增長7%，利潤率爲15%。上一季度，沒有其他福特部門的EBIT利潤率那麼高。
The segment reaped a revenue of $17 billion in the three months through the end of June owing to the strong demand for Super Duty trucks and Transit commercial vans.
由於對Super Duty卡車和Transit商用車的強勁需求，該業務板塊在截至6月底的三個月中實現了170億美元的營業收入。
For the whole year, Ford expects an EBIT of $9 billion to $10 billion for the segment.
整個年度，福特預計該部門的EBIT將達到90億至100億美元。
Price Action: Ford shares closed 1.6% higher at $10.62 on Thursday. The stock is down 12.7% year-to-date, according to data from Benzinga Pro.
價格走勢：福特股價週四收漲1.6%，報10.62美元。根據Benzinga Pro的數據，該股今年以來下跌了12.7%。
