Description: HMC Honda Motor December 03, 2025

Honda Motor Co., Ltd. (NYSE:HMC) is a diversified mobility company that designs, manufactures, and distributes motorcycles, automobiles, and power products worldwide. It operates through four primary segments: Motorcycle Business (sports, commuter, and off-road models), Automobile Business (passenger cars, light trucks, and mini-vehicles), Financial Services Business (retail and wholesale financing for customers and dealers), and Power Product & Other Businesses (engines, generators, lawn equipment, and the HondaJet aircraft). The firm also generates revenue from spare-parts sales and after-sales services via its dealer network and independent distributors.

Key recent metrics show Honda posted FY 2023 revenue of roughly ¥15.9 trillion and net income of ¥1.2 trillion, with an operating margin of about 6 %. The company is targeting 2 million electric-vehicle (EV) deliveries by 2030, reflecting the broader industry shift toward electrification and tightening emissions standards in major markets. Honda’s earnings are also sensitive to the yen-dollar exchange rate and global semiconductor supply constraints, both of which have introduced volatility in vehicle production volumes.
