First, I will explain the key points of the financial results.

In the fiscal year ended March 2026, amid significant changes in the business environment surrounding EVs, we swiftly carried out a reorganization of our EV business and related investments.

By the third quarter, we recorded EV-related losses of 267.1 billion yen, including provisions for losses and impairment losses on EVs already being sold in the U.S.

In addition, as we explained on March 12, the cancellation of the launch and development of EV models that had been scheduled for production in North America resulted in additional losses of 1 trillion 310.6 billion yen in the fourth quarter.

As a result, total EV-related losses for the fiscal year ended March 2026 amounted to 1 trillion

577.8 billion yen.

Consequently, operating profit for the fiscal year ended March 2026 was a loss of 414.3 billion yen.

Excluding the 1 trillion 453.6 billion yen in EV-related losses, operating profit was 1 trillion

39.3 billion yen.

Motorcycle business achieved record-high sales volume and operating profit due to increased unit sales, mainly in India and Brazil.

Although the automobile business faced a harsh business environment - including higher tariff burdens and lower unit sales due to factors such as semiconductor supply shortages - we implemented company-wide cost reductions as one team, and excluding EV-related losses, we were profitable.

In addition, R&D-adjusted operating cash flow, which represents the funds available for future investment, came to 2 trillion 657.9 billion yen, and as in the previous fiscal year, we continue to maintain strong cash-generating capability.

‌Summary





Financial Forecast for FYE March 31, 2027

Operating profit 500.0 billion yen(Adjusted operating profit excluding EV-related losses :1 trillion yen) Despite the situation in the Middle East & higher material costs, target adjusted OP in line with the previous year via Motorcycles vol. gains & efficiency (fixed-cost cuts).

Motorcycle business: By expanding production capacity in India and other measures, we plan to capture strong demand and target record-high sales of 22.8 mil. units.

Automobile business: In Asia, we will support unit sales through model updates, while in North America will primarily strengthen ICE/HEV sales to increase volumes.

Next, I will explain our consolidated earnings outlook for the fiscal year ending

March 2027.

First, regarding EV-related losses, while it is difficult at this point to forecast the amount precisely, we have reviewed the details as thoroughly as possible and have set EV-related losses for the fiscal year ending March 2027 at 500 billion yen.

In addition, although there are concerns about the situation in the Middle East and the impact of rising material prices, we expect operating profit excluding EV-related losses to be 1 trillion yen.

Including EV-related losses, we forecast operating profit for the fiscal year ending March 2027 to be 500 billion yen.

In terms of business segments, the motorcycle business will expand production capacity in India, accurately capture strong demand, and aim for record high sales of 22.8 million units.

As for the automobile business, in Asia we will support sales volumes through model changes, while in North America we will aim to expand profitability by strengthening sales of ICE and HEV models.

As for shareholder returns, we will set the annual dividend for the fiscal year ending March 2027 at 70 yen per share, the same amount as for the fiscal year ended March 2026.

Next, I will explain our financial soundness.

As explained earlier, R&D-adjusted operating cash flow continues to maintain strong cash-generating capability, and as of the end of March 2026, the net cash balance of the operating companies stood at 3.3 trillion yen, meaning we have ample net cash on hand.

In addition, regarding our equity ratio, supported by retained earnings accumulated over time, the financial position of our operating companies -excluding the financial services business - continues to maintain an equity ratio of 55%, and we will continue to maintain a high level of financial soundness.

For the consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ended March 2026:

First, from the fiscal year ended March 2026 through the fiscal year ending March 2027, EV-related losses arose as a result of revising our automobile electrification strategy. As this has made it difficult to see our underlying business performance, we are disclosing operating profit before reflecting these losses as "adjusted profit."

The consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ended March 2026, compared with the previous fiscal year, are as follows:

Operating profit decreased by 1 trillion 627.8 billion yen to a loss of 414.3 billion yen.

Share of profit/loss of investments accounted for using the equity method decreased by 163 billion yen to a loss of 162 billion yen.

Profit/loss attributable to owners of the parent decreased by 1 trillion 259.7 billion yen to a

loss of 423.9 billion yen.

Excluding EV-related losses, adjusted operating profit was 1 trillion 39.3 billion yen, and adjusted profit attributable to owners of the parent was 795.5 billion yen.

Next, I will explain the factors behind the increase/decrease in adjusted

operating profit compared with the previous fiscal year's results.

Adjusted operating profit is expected to decrease by 39.3 billion yen year on year. As for the factors behind the increase/decrease:

  • Sales impact: An increase in sales volume of motorcycles and Automobiles resulting in an increase in profit of 266.7 billion yen

  • Selling price and cost impact: Although there are profit increases due to cost reductions and price revisions, the impact of rising material prices-including the effects related to the Middle East-resulting in a decrease in profit of 313 billion yen

  • SG&A expenses: A 8 billion yen decrease is forecast

  • R&D expenses: A 10 billion yen increase is forecast

  • Foreign exchange effects: A 142 billion yen decrease is forecast

  • Tariff impacts: A 147 billion yen increase is forecast

With regard to the outlook for capital expenditures, depreciation, and R&D spending for the fiscal year ending March 2027, we have set it as shown here.

In addition, this reflects an increase in capital expenditures resulting from the acquisition of the factory building for the battery production joint venture in the

U.S. with LG Energy Solution, among other factors.

‌Caution with Respect to Forward-Looking Statements:

This slide contains forward-looking statements about the performance of Honda, which are based on management's assumptions and beliefs taking into account information currently available to it. Therefore, please be advised that Honda's actual results could differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements as a result of numerous factors, including general economic conditions in Honda's principal markets and fluctuation of foreign exchange rates, as well as other factors detailed from time to time.

Accounting standards:

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

Notice on the Factors for Increases and Decreases in Income:

With respect to the discussion above of the changes, identified factors and used what it believes to be a reasonable method to analyze the respective changes in such factors. Analyzed changes in these factors at the levels of the Company and its material consolidated subsidiaries.

  1. "Foreign currency effects" consist of "translation adjustments", which come from the translation of the currency of foreign subsidiaries' financial statements into Japanese yen, and "foreign currency adjustments", which result from foreign-currency-denominated transaction. With respect to "foreign currency adjustments", analyzed foreign currency adjustments primarily related to the following currencies: U.S. dollar, Japanese yen and others at the level of the Company and its material consolidated subsidiaries.

  2. With respect to "Price and Cost impacts", analyzed effects of changes in sales price, cost reductions, effects of raw material cost fluctuations and others, excluding foreign currency effects.

  3. With respect to "Sales impacts", analyzed changes in sales volume and in the mix of product models sold that resulted in increases/decreases in profit, changes in sales revenue of Financial services business that resulted in

    increases/decreases in profit, as well as certain other reasons for increases/decreases in sales revenue and cost of sales, excluding foreign currency effects.

  4. With respect to "Expenses", analyzed reasons for an increase/decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses from the previous fiscal year excluding foreign currency translation effects.

  5. With respect to "Research and Development expenses", analyzed reasons for an increase/decrease in research and development expenses from the previous fiscal year excluding foreign currency translation effects.

Unit sales:

Motorcycle Business

Honda Group Unit Sales is the total unit sales of completed products, including motorcycles, ATVs, and Side-by-Sides of Honda, its consolidated subsidiaries and its affiliates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method. Consolidated Unit Sales is the total unit sales of completed products corresponding to consolidated sales revenue to external customers, which consists of unit sales of completed products of Honda and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Automobile Business

Honda Group Unit Sales is the total unit sales of completed products of Honda, its consolidated subsidiaries and its affiliates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method. Consolidated Unit Sales is the total unit sales of completed products corresponding to consolidated sales revenue to external customers, which consists of unit sales of completed products of Honda and its consolidated subsidiaries. Certain sales of automobiles that are financed with residual value type auto loans and other by our Japanese finance subsidiaries and provided through our consolidated subsidiaries are accounted for as operating leases in conformity with IFRS and are not included in consolidated sales revenue to the external customers in our Automobile business. Accordingly, they are not included in Consolidated Unit Sales, but are included in Honda Group Unit Sales of our Automobile business.

Power Product Business

Honda Group Unit Sales is the total unit sales of completed power products of Honda, its consolidated subsidiaries and its affiliates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method. Consolidated Unit Sales is the total unit sales of completed power products corresponding to consolidated sales revenue to external customers, which consists of unit sales of completed power products of Honda and its consolidated subsidiaries. In Power Product business, there is no discrepancy between Honda Group Unit Sales and Consolidated Unit Sales since no affiliate and joint venture accounted for using the equity method was involved in the sale of Honda power products.

* Earnings per share attributable to owners of the parent is calculated based on weighted average number of shares outstanding as shown below:

- Twelve Months Ended March 31, 2025 4,671,383,000 (approx.) , Ended March 31, 2026 3,997,277,000 (approx.)

Forecast Ended March 31, 2027 3,892,580,000 (approx.)

This concludes my explanation.

Thank you very much for your attention.
