PSA Autos / New Mobility: Honda Motor's (7267 JT) Auto Business in Tro...
Honda’s Auto operations are under pressure, as extraordinary factors, as well as fundamental company-specific issues, are weighing on profits. Auto sales have fallen substantially over the last two years as Honda is struggling with its market positioning and product line-up. Analyst Julie Boote notes that business risks in both the Auto and the (currently successful) Motorcycle division suggest that a longer lasting recovery following the write-off year FY25 might not be on the cards.
