Toyota reports financial impact from Iran war and Middle East conflict
Toyota announced a £3 billion (approximately $4.3 billion) hit to earnings from the Iran war and Middle East turmoil, driven primarily by increased materials costs and reduced sales. The company cited supply chain disruptions from the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, higher commodity prices, and reduced sales in the Middle East, where it is the dominant automotive brand. Toyota also expects a 20% profit decline for the current financial year ahead.
