Honda Motor Co., Ltd. announced its consolidated financial results for the fiscal fourth quarter and the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.
Results for Fiscal 4th Quarter (3 months ended March 31, 2010)
Consolidated net sales and other operating revenue for the fiscal fourth quarter ended March 31, 2010 amounted to JPY 2,279.5 billion, an increase of 27.8% compared to the same period last year, primarily due to increased sales in all business segments and the favorable impact of currency translation.
Consolidated operating income amounted to JPY 96.0 billion, an increase of JPY 368.2 billion from the same period last year, due mainly to increased profit from higher revenue, reduction in vehicle costs by increased production and decreased selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses.
Consolidated income before income taxes amounted to JPY 93.5 billion, an increase of JPY 392.2 billion from the same period last year, and consolidated net income attributable to Honda Motor Co., Ltd. amounted to JPY 72.1 billion, an increase of JPY 252.1 billion compared to the same period last year.
Results for Fiscal Year ended March 31, 2010 (12 months ended March 31, 2010)
Consolidated net sales and other operating revenue for the fiscal year amounted to JPY 8,579.1 billion,
a decrease of 14.3% compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the unfavorable impact of currency translation and decreased revenue in automobile business.
Consolidated operating income amounted to JPY 363.7 billion, an increase of 91.8% compared to the same period last year, due to decreased SG&A and R&D expenses and continuing cost reduction efforts despite decreased profit from lower revenue, the unfavorable currency effects by the appreciation of the Japanese yen and increased cost per unit due to decreased production.
Consolidated income before income taxes amounted to JPY 336.1 billion, an increase of 107.9% from the same period last year, and consolidated net income attributable to Honda Motor Co., Ltd. amounted to JPY 268.4 billion, an increase of 95.9% compared to the same period last year.
