Financial results for the first half of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2003 are in line with the preliminary financial results announced on October 16, 2003.Nissan's first half performance represents the seventh consecutive half of record operating profit. The results achieved halfway into NISSAN 180 are attributed to a combination of higher volumes from attractive new products and lower costs.Nissan's global vehicle sales of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles for first half of fiscal year 2003 reached 1,467,000 units, up 5.9%. Consolidated net sales came to 3,556.2 billion, an increase of 8.2%. Consolidated operating profit rose 15.2% to 401.1 billion yen, representing 11.3% of sales compared to 10.6% for the first half of fiscal year 2002. Consolidated net income after tax was 237.7 billion, down 17.4% from the same period in fiscal year 2002. Factors affecting net income include the payment of higher current taxes as the company returns to normal taxation in Japan and the one-time gain from the sale of the Murayama Plant in the first half of fiscal year 2002.Full-year revenues are expected to reach 7.45 trillion yen and operating profits to be 820 billion yen. The operating margin is projected to be 11%. Net profit after tax is expected to be 495 billion yen. The forecast for the second half has been revised with the assumption that the dollar will be at 110 yen and that the euro would remain at 125 yen.
