Global production increased 12.7% to 757,000 units due to continued initiatives in production and parts procurement.
Production in Japan rose 7.3% to 491,000 units, while production in the U.S. grew 24.3% to 266,000 units.
As a result of the production increase, global unit sales rose 15.8% to 736,000 units, led by steady sales in Subaru's key U.S. market.
Consolidated revenue rose 24.5% to 3,496.4 billion yen, due to factors including the increase in sales volume and the positive impact of foreign exchange rates.
As factors such as the increase in sales volume and the positive impact of foreign exchange rates more than offset the increases in SG&A expenses and raw material costs, operating profit rose 73.6% to 371.0 billion yen, profit before tax grew 93.5% to 416.2 billion yen, and profit for the period attributable to owners of parent increased 93.5% to 298.9 billion yen.

Global unit sales are forecast at 1,000,000 units, with the key U.S. market expected to lead sales growth.

The forecasts are based on exchange rate assumptions of 143 yen to the U.S. dollar and 154 yen to the euro.

    As the effects of foreign exchange rates, an improvement in sales mix, and a decline in market prices, particularly for precious metals, are expected to more than offset the increase in SG&A expenses and potential constraints in parts supply and logistics, the Company is revising its previous forecasts for FYE 2024 (announced on August 2, 2023) as follows:

    • Revenue: 4,650 billion yen (an increase of 450 billion yen from the previous forecast)
    • Operating profit: 420 billion yen (an increase of 120 billion yen from the previous forecast)
    • Profit before tax: 460 billion yen (an increase of 160 billion yen from the previous forecast)
    • Profit for the period attributable to owners of parent: 320 billion yen (an increase of 110 billion yen from the previous forecast)

    The forecasts for FYE 2024 are based on exchange rate assumptions of 140 yen to the U.S. dollar and 150 yen to the euro.
