HONDA MOTOR CO., LTD. REPORTS

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL RESULTS

FOR THE FISCAL FIRST QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2016

Tokyo, August 2, 2016 — Honda Motor Co., Ltd. today announced its consolidated financial results for the fiscal first quarter ended June 30, 2016.

First Quarter Results

Honda’s consolidated profit for the period attributable to owners of the parent for the fiscal first quarter ended June 30, 2016 totaled JPY 174.6 billion (USD 1,698 million), a decrease of 6.1% from the same period last year, due primarily to an increase in Income tax expense. Earnings per share attributable to owners of the parent for the quarter amounted to JPY 96.93 (USD 0.94), a decrease of JPY 6.29 (USD 0.06) from JPY 103.22 for the corresponding period last year. One Honda American Depository Share represents one common share.

Consolidated sales revenue for the quarter amounted to JPY 3,471.7 billion (USD 33,736 million), a decrease of 6.3% from the same period last year, due primarily to unfavorable foreign currency translation effects, despite increased consolidated unit sales in automobile and motorcycle business operations.

Consolidated operating profit for the quarter amounted to JPY 266.8 billion (USD 2,593 million), an increase of 11.5% from the same period last year, due primarily to continuing cost reduction efforts and an increase in profit attributable to increased sales revenue and model mix, as well as decreased SG&A expenses, including quality related expenses, despite unfavorable foreign currency effects and the effects of the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquake.

Share of profit of investments accounted for using the equity method for the quarter amounted to JPY 27.2 billion (USD 265 million) for the quarter, a decrease of 29.0% from the corresponding period last year.

1. Loss related to airbag inflators

Honda has been conducting market-based measures in relation to airbag inflators. Honda recognizes a provision for specific warranty costs when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. There is a possibility that Honda will need to recognize additional provisions when new evidence related to the product recalls arise, however, it is not possible for Honda to reasonably estimate the amount and timing of potential future losses as of the date of this report.

In the United States and Canada, various class action lawsuits and civil lawsuits related to the above mentioned market-based measures have been filed against Honda. The plaintiffs have claimed for properly functioning airbag inflators, compensation of economic losses including incurred costs and the decline in the value of vehicles, as well as punitive damages. Most of the class action lawsuits in the United States were transferred to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida and consolidated into a multidistrict litigation.

Honda did not recognize a provision for loss contingencies because the conditions for a provision have not been met as of the date of this report. Therefore, it is not possible for Honda to reasonably estimate the amount and timing of potential future losses, if any, as of the date of this report because there is some uncertainty.

2. Transfer pricing tax refund

In May 2015, the lawsuit related to transfer pricing involving the Company’s transactions with certain consolidated subsidiaries in Brazil was concluded, and it was ruled that the Company shall receive a tax refund with corresponding interest in Japan. As a result, income tax expense decreased by JPY 19,145 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

3. Impairment loss on investments accounted for using the equity method

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recognized impairment losses of JPY 12,871 million on certain investments accounted for using the equity method because there is objective evidence of impairment from declines in quoted market values. The impairment losses are included in share of profit of investments accounted for using the equity method in the condensed consolidated statement of income.
