Nissan's Q2 2026/27 operating profit fell 95.9% year-on-year to JP¥2.1bn (US$13.2m), primarily due to one-off factors. The company cited rising raw material costs alongside Japanese peers. The comparison was skewed by a JP¥36.0bn gain Nissan booked in the prior-year quarter from lower US emissions regulation costs, a non-recurring item that made the current period look worse by contrast.
The automaker sees opportunities in Europe but faces sales challenges in China, a key region.
