Nissan Motor Announces Financial Results for the First Half of Fiscal 2026

In the first half of FY2026, revenue increased and operating profit improved from a loss in the same period of the previous year to a profit of ¥80 billion. In response to sluggish sales in China, the full-year global vehicle sales outlook was lowered from 3.15 million units to 2.97 million–3.00 million units, while the full-year operating profit forecast of ¥200 billion was maintained.

These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.

The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

The improvement in operating profit was attributable to ongoing structural reforms, cost reductions under Re:Nissan, foreign exchange movements, improvements in unit sales and mix, and lower manufacturing costs. The lower sales outlook for China reflected sluggish demand, the accelerating shift to NEVs, and intensifying competition.
