Honda Motor posted its first annual loss in nearly 70 years as a listed company, hurt by U.S. tariffs and more than $9 billion in costs tied to restructuring its electric-vehicle business. The result highlights significant pressure on earnings and balance sheet fundamentals, with tariffs and EV reorganization weighing heavily on profitability. The news is likely to pressure Honda shares, though the broader market impact should be limited.
