FY2024 Consolidated Financial Summary

Comparison to FY2023 Details on page 6.

  • Sales dropped mainly due to a decrease in vehicle output volume despite positive exchange rate effects from a weak yen.

  • Operating income declined due to a decrease in output volume in Japan, the U.S., and Asia, incurred one-time quality costs in the U.S., and YSMC Gifu Factory launch costs.

  • Ordinary income decreased due to the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations, mainly from evaluation losses on peso-denominated assets.

  • Net income turned to a loss due to impairment losses from consolidated subsidiaries, driven by accelerated structural reforms outlined in YSP2026.

    Differences from initial performance Details on page 7.

    forecast released on January 17, 2025

  • Sales increased due to growth in sales volume from avoiding the risk of output decreases, and additional recovery of inflation-related costs

  • Operating income improved thanks to cost reduction and intensive rationalization efforts in the Japan segment, including acceleration of activities planned for FY2025, after ransomware attack.

  • Net income benefitted from a reduction in expected impairment losses, improving from the anticipated ¥14 billion to ¥9.1 billion in the Americas and Asia segments.
