Mazda Motor Corporation announced its financial report on the 5th, stating that its operating performance in the second quarter of this year declined significantly due to the impact of the US tariff policy. Its net profit attributable to parent shareholders changed from a profit of 49.8 billion yen in the same period last year to a loss of 42.1 billion yen. The financial report showed that although Mazda's sales in the domestic market in Japan increased in the second quarter of this year, its sales in the US declined due to the impact of the US tariff policy. Globally, the company's sales in the second quarter decreased by 2.8% year-on-year to 301,000 vehicles, while its sales revenue decreased by 8.8% year-on-year. According to the Nihon Keizai Shimbun, the US market accounts for about 30% of Mazda's global sales volume, making it the most profitable market. Mazda's sales in the US mainly rely on exports to the US, which is why the impact of the US tariff policy has become a major reason for its losses.
