Toyota And Honda See Sharp Declines In Profit Amidst Iran War Pressures, Spiking EV Costs
Toyota expects a sharp decline in profit as rising material and shipping costs tied to the Iran conflict pressure its business, according to Bloomberg.
The automaker projected operating income of ¥3 trillion for the fiscal year ending March 2027, well below both analyst expectations of ¥4.6 trillion and last year's ¥3.8 trillion.
The company said supply chain disruptions are driving up costs for aluminum, resins, and other materials, while logistics issues remain unpredictable. Toyota estimates the regional conflict could reduce earnings by about ¥670 billion.
After the forecast was released, shares dropped as much as 3.5%. Analysts noted Toyota may be giving conservative guidance, but future performance will depend heavily on how long the conflict continues.
Julie Boote, an analyst at London-based research firm Pelham Smithers Associates Ltd told Bloomberg: “Toyota did not only miss consensus e...

|
|
|
Bloomberg Daybreak Europe is your essential morning viewing to stay ahead.
On today's show, President Trump says the US plan to guide stranded ships through the Strait of Hormuz is being paused to see if an agreement can be reached with Iran to end the war.
Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi is in Beijing, where he's held talks with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi. The meeting comes just days before Donald Trump is scheduled to arrive in the Chinese capital.
Plus, a busy day for earnings: Novo Nordisk has nudged its sales forecast higher, lifted by its new Wegovy pill. The German chipmaker Infineon has given a better-than-expected revenue forecast, as it benefits from the AI spending boom. And BMW's carmaking returns fell in the first quarter, hit by intense competition in China.

Aircraft Carrier Strike Group To Leave Middle East, Reducing Footprint Amid Iran War
Currently there are three American aircraft carrier groups in Middle East waters and near Iran in the context of Operation Epic Fury. By comparison, at the height of the Bush-ordered US invasion of Iraq in 2003, there were six total carrier groups - which were responsible for most of the large tomahawk missile strikes on Baghdad.
Amid the current extended ceasefire between the US and Iran (and including Israel), there are indicators that Washington is not preparing for a ground invasion of the Islamic Republic anytime soon. First and foremost is that the USS Gerald R. Ford is set to return to the United States after nearly a year deployed in wartime operations - as it was previously in the Caribbean focused on Venezuela ops.
