1. Overview of Consolidated Financial Results

Consolidated Operating Results

Honda’s consolidated sales revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased by 13.5%, to JPY 6,061.5 billion from the same period last year, due mainly to increased sales revenue in Financial services business and Motorcycle business as well as positive foreign currency translation effects. Operating profit increased by 117.4%, to JPY 530.7 billion from the same period last year, due mainly to the impact of EV (electric vehicle)-related losses incurred in the same period last year as well as tariff impacts. Profit before income taxes increased by 107.0%, to JPY 605.0 billion from the same period last year. Profit for the period attributable to owners of the parent increased by 129.3%, to JPY 450.9 billion from the same period last year.

Consolidated Statements of Financial Position

Total assets as of June 30, 2026 increased by JPY 928.6 billion, to JPY 34,437.9 billion from March 31, 2026 due mainly to increased property, plant and equipment as well as positive foreign currency translation effects. Total liabilities increased by JPY 448.1 billion, to JPY 21,809.3 billion from March 31, 2026 due mainly to increased financing liabilities as well as positive foreign currency translation effects, which was partially offset by decreased trade payables. Total equity increased by JPY 480.5 billion, to JPY 12,628.5 billion from March 31, 2026 due mainly to increased retained earnings attributable to profit for the period.

[6] Notes to Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

[A] Segment Information

Based on Honda’s organizational structure and characteristics of products and services, Honda discloses segment information in four categories: Reportable segments of Motorcycle business, Automobile business and Financial services business, and other segments that are not reportable. The other segments are combined and disclosed in Power products and other businesses. Segment information is based on the components of Honda for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The accounting policies used for segment information are consistent with the accounting policies used in the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Principal products and services, and functions of each segment are as follows:

Assets held for sale as of June 30, 2026 are presented in other current assets in the condensed consolidated statements of financial position.

[C] Other

Loss related to airbag inflators

Honda has been conducting market-based measures in relation to airbag inflators. Honda recognizes a provision for specific warranty costs when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. There is a possibility that Honda will need to recognize additional provisions when new evidence related to the product recalls arise, however, it is not possible for Honda to reasonably estimate the amount and timing of potential future losses as of the date of this report.

Losses related to the reassessment of the automobile electrification strategy

The Company and its consolidated subsidiaries had historically entered into contracts with suppliers for the procurement of parts. During the year ended March 31, 2026, the Company decided to cancel the development and market launch of EV models that were planned for production in North America. Accordingly, during the current fiscal year, the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries initiated an assessment to identify the impact of such decision on the relevant suppliers. Depending on the outcome of the ongoing discussions with each affected supplier, additional payments to suppliers may arise in the future. In estimating the amount of additional payments, it is necessary to consider the progress of the assessment and discussions. Accordingly, due to high degree of uncertainty regarding the amount and timing of such additional payments, the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries are currently unable to reasonably estimate such amount with sufficient reliability.

To Whom It May Concern:

Notice Concerning Revision of Forecast for Consolidated Financial Results for the Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2027

Honda Motor Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) revised its forecast for consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027, which was announced on May 14, 2026.

Particulars

Revision of Forecast for Consolidated Financial Results for the Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2027

Reason for Revision of Forecast for Consolidated Financial Results for the Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2027 which was announced on May 14, 2026

During the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027, the Japanese yen remained weaker against the U.S. dollar than initially assumed.

In addition, considering the market environment going forward, the Company has revised the average exchange rates for the Japanese yen to the U.S. dollar for the full year ending March 31, 2027, from JPY145 to JPY155.

As a result, profits at all levels are expected to exceed the forecast announced on May 14, 2026. Accordingly, the Company has revised upward its consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027, as shown above.
