Honda reported a 42% profit drop for the nine months ending December, totaling 465.4 billion yen ($4.2 billion), mainly due to tariffs imposed by the Trump administration. Sales decreased by 2.2% to 15.98 trillion yen, with the company lowering its global electric vehicle sales projection for 2030 from 30% to 20%. Despite challenges, including a slowdown in the U.S. EV market, Honda maintained its fiscal year profit forecast at 300 billion yen. The stock rose 2.1%, contributing to a rally in the Nikkei 225 index following Japan’s political developments.
