   2.   Reasons for the amendments 

The full-year consolidated financial forecasts for FY2024 were amended from the previously announced forecasts in light of efforts to improve profitability, in addition to the impact of exchange rate fluctuations.

The forecast of the full-year consolidated vehicle unit sales for FY2024 has not been changed from the previous forecast of 9.6 million units.

The assumption of the foreign exchange rate for the full-year average has been changed from 125 yen per U.S. dollar and 135 yen per euro to 141 yen per U.S. dollar and 152 yen per euro.
