Impact of changes in EV market environment
Due to the slowdown in the expansion of the electric vehicle (EV) market in regions such as North America and Europe, Honda has been experiencing impacts including lower EV sales units and higher sales incentives per unit than initially expected. Furthermore, following the United States government policy shifts, including the abolition of tax incentives for EV purchases and the easing of emissions regulations, as well as the imposition of import tariffs, the growth of the EV market in the United States is expected to slow down even further. Due to the recent EV market slowdown, the Honda global EV sales ratio in 2030 is now expected to be 20%, lower than the previously announced target of 30%.
As part of the revision to the product launch plan to address the changes in the market condition, Honda decided to cancel a certain EV model development, and discontinue and reduce manufacturing of EV models jointly developed under a certain alliance agreement.
As a result, for the six months ended September 30, 2025, the Company and its certain subsidiaries recognized losses and expenses of JPY 139,888 million in cost of sales, JPY 8,130 million in selling, general and administrative expenses, and JPY 89,245 million in research and development expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income. These losses and expenses are included in Automobile business. The breakdown of these losses and expenses is as follows.
| • | Additional provisions of JPY 99,744 million related to the onerous contract under the alliance agreement, primarily due to a shift in the United States government policy, including the imposition of tariffs, the abolition of tax incentives for EV purchases, and the easing of emissions regulations, as well as a reduction in production volume, which resulted in decreased economic benefits and increased costs. |
| • | Impairment losses of JPY 80,741 million recognized for the entire carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and other non-current assets related to the discontinued EV model such as product specific equipment and capitalized development costs. |
| • | Losses of JPY 56,778 million from the disposal of the intangible assets due to the cancellation of development for a specific EV model. |
For the contingent liability related to the alliance agreement described above, see [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.
Contingent liabilities related to certain alliance agreements
As part of Honda’s automobile electrification strategies, Honda has entered into alliance agreements with third parties involving joint development, parts procurement, and products purchases. These alliances may result in additional losses or expenses where unforeseen factors arise, such as lower than expected sales volumes or rising costs. In estimating the likelihood and the amount of potential losses or expenses, it is necessary to consider the progress of negotiation, as certain provisions in the relevant agreements were unclear. However, due to high levels of uncertainty regarding the amount and timing of certain contingent liabilities, Honda is currently unable to estimate the potential exposure with sufficient reliability.
