-- Shares of Nissan Motor (TYO:7201) rose about 4% on Tuesday after the company said it expects a lower loss in fiscal 2025 than it previously anticipated.
Nissan now expects loss per share of 157.42 yen, compared with the prior estimate of a 186.04 yen loss. Net loss attributable to owners is seen at 550 billion yen, narrower than the previously forecast loss of 650 billion yen. Net sales are projected at 12 trillion yen, up from 11.9 trillion yen.
The improvement reflects a one-off benefit tied to the rollback of U.S. emissions regulations, along with better cost performance and favorable foreign exchange. The company expects positive automotive free cash flow in the second half and automotive net cash above 1 trillion yen.
