Honda Aero, Inc. to Build Headquarters and Manufacturing Plant
to Produce Turbofan Jet Engines in Burlington, North Carolina
$27 Million Plant to Produce GE Honda Engines for Very Light Jet Market
BURLINGTON, N.C. Honda Aero, Inc., announced today that it will establish its corporate headquarters and a state-of-the-art jet engine manufacturing* plant in Burlington, North Carolina, adjacent to the Burlington-Alamance Regional Airport. The new facility will produce advanced jet engines developed and marketed by GE Honda Aero Engines, LLC.
GE Honda Aero Engines is a joint venture between GE and Honda Aero, established in 2004 for the development, certification and commercialization of jet engines in the 1,000 to 3,500 pounds thrust class.
The 102,400-square foot Honda Aero facility will consist of 36,000 square feet of office space, a 58,400-square foot production plant, and an 8,000-square foot engine test cell. Production at the new engine plant will begin in late 2010 with the manufacture of the advanced and efficient GE Honda HF120 turbofan engine in the 2,000-pound thrust class.
Honda Aero will employ approximately 70 associates when the plant reaches its initial production plan of 200 engines per year within about one year of production startup. The company will invest approximately $27 million for construction of the headquarters and manufacturing facility, including equipment.
This is a major step forward for our company, as we move to establish the home of our jet engine manufacturing operations here in Burlington, said Fumitaka Hasegawa, president and CEO of Honda Aero, Inc. Just as our partnership with GE has created this class-leading engine, this facility reflects an important new partnership between Honda and North Carolina.
With a higher thrust-to-weight ratio, higher fuel efficiency, low emissions and the quietest operation in its thrust class, the GE Honda HF120 has been chosen to power two of the newest and most advanced products in the business jet market Spectrum Aeronauticals Freedom and HondaJet, to be produced by the Honda Aircraft Company, Inc., a separate Honda company.
* | Honda products are produced using domestic and globally-sourced parts |
The HF120 is a higher thrust successor to Hondas original HF118 prototype engine, which has accumulated more than 4,000 hours of testing on the ground and in-flight. Honda research on jet engine technology started in 1986, with development of the HF118 engine beginning in the late 1990s. GE-Honda collaboration on the HF120 began in early 2005. The first core test of the GE Honda HF120 was conducted in early 2007, followed by full-engine testing later in the year.
Combining Hondas original small turbofan engine technology and GEs sixty years of experience in the development and manufacture of jet engines, the GE Honda HF120 is the most fuel efficient engine in its class; and while there are currently no emission regulations for small turbofan engines, the HF120 is expected to surpass the future anticipated emissions standards by as much as 20 percent.

Guangzhou Honda to Build a New Automobile R&D Center
July 18, 2007 - Guangzhou Honda Automobile Co., Ltd. (GHAC), Hondas automobile production and sales joint venture in China, today announced the establishment of a wholly-owned R&D subsidiary in China. With an investment of approximately 2 billion R.M.B. (approximately 30 billion yen*), the new GHAC subsidiary, Guangzhou Honda Automobile Research & Development Co., Ltd., will build an automobile R&D facility accompanied by a full-scale high-speed test course. The company will develop a new automobile product which will be marketed under an original brand of Guangzhou Honda, targeting the start of sales in 2010.
* | Calculated based on the exchange rate of 1 R.M.B.= 15 yen |
This new vehicle, which will be a unique product that incorporates various customer needs specific to the Chinese market, will be developed primarily by the new R&D subsidiary while receiving support from Honda R&D Co., Ltd. To market this vehicle, GHAC plans to use an original brand, which will be differentiated from the Honda brand. This will be the first time a joint venture company of a foreign automaker will develop and market a product under an original brand.
Since the start of production in 1999, GHAC has been steadily establishing a business foundation in China through various efforts: expanding production capacity consistent with increasing sales, increasing local content, and strengthening the dealer network. The establishment of an R&D center in China represents the companys commitment to achieve greater autonomy in the area of R&D, in addition to production and sales, in an effort to position the company for further growth as a joint venture company deeply rooted in the local market.
Honda has been at the forefront of the automobile industry in introducing new concepts to the Chinese market, which began full-fledged growth in the late 1990s. These achievements include the following: local production of the latest model Accord in China with Guangzhou Honda, establishment of Chinas first dedicated automobile dealer network which integrates sales, service, service parts supply and customer service, and Chinas first full-scale export to Europe of passenger vehicles produced at the Honda Automobile (China) Co., Ltd plant, which is dedicated exclusively to exports. Now, Honda again takes on a new challenge of developing a new product under an original brand of a joint venture company in China.

HONDA MOTOR CO., LTD. REPORTS
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL RESULTS
FOR THE FISCAL FIRST QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2007
Tokyo, July 25, 2007Honda Motor Co., Ltd. today announced its consolidated financial results for the fiscal first quarter ended June 30, 2007.
First Quarter Results
Hondas consolidated net income for the fiscal first quarter ended June 30, 2007 totaled JPY 166.1 billion (USD 1,348 million), an increase of 15.8% from the corresponding period in 2006. Basic net income per Common share for the quarter amounted to JPY 91.38 (USD 0.74), an increase of 16.5% compared to JPY 78.46 for the corresponding period in 2006. One of Hondas American Depository Shares represents one Common Share.
Consolidated net sales and other operating revenue (herein referred to as revenue) for the quarter amounted to JPY 2,931.1 billion (USD 23,780 million), an increase of 12.7% from the corresponding period in 2006. This increase in consolidated net sales and other operating revenue was primarily due to the increased unit sales in automobile business and the positive impact of the currency effects caused by the depreciation of the Japanese yen. Honda estimates that if calculated at the same exchange rate as the corresponding period in 2006, revenue for the quarter would have increased by approximately 5.9%.
Consolidated operating income for the quarter totaled JPY 221.6 billion (USD 1,799 million), an increase of 8.9% compared to the corresponding period in 2006. This increase in operating income was primarily due to the increased profit attributable to higher revenue, continuing cost reduction effects and the positive impact of the currency effects caused by the depreciation of the Japanese yen which offset the negative impact of the increased sales incentives in North America, substantially increased raw material costs and the increased depreciation expenses, SG&A expenses and R&D expenses.
Consolidated income before income taxes, minority interest and equity in income of affiliates for the quarter totaled JPY 218.2 billion (USD 1,771 million), an increase of 14.1% from the corresponding period in 2006.
Equity in income of affiliates amounted to JPY 37.0 billion (USD 300 million) for the quarter, an increase of 22.6% from the corresponding period in 2006, due mainly to the increased income from Hondas affiliates accounted for under the equity method in China.

Unit sales in Japan was 84 thousand units, a decrease of 5.6% from the corresponding period in 2006. Overseas unit sales was 2,169 thousand units, a decrease of 5.3% from the corresponding period in 2006*, due mainly to the decreased unit sales of parts for local production at Hondas affiliates accounted for under the equity method in Asia, offsetting the positive impact of increased unit sales in other regions especially in Latin America. Revenue from external customers increased 18.8%, to JPY 368.3 billion (USD 2,988 million) from the corresponding period in 2006, due mainly to the positive impact of the currency translation effects, offsetting the negative impact of decreased unit sales. Operating income increased by 137.1% to JPY 31.1 billion (USD 253 million) from the corresponding period in 2006, due mainly to the positive impact of the currency effects caused by the depreciation of the Japanese yen, offsetting the negative impact of the increased SG&A expenses and the increased R&D expenses.
* | Of the net sales of Honda-brand motorcycle products that are manufactured and sold by overseas affiliates accounted for under the equity method, those with respect to which parts for manufacturing were not supplied from Honda or its subsidiaries are not included in net sales and other operating revenue, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, these unit sales are not included in the financial results. Sales of such products amounted to approximately 1,100 thousand units for the quarter. |

In Japan, unit sales was 136 thousand units, a decrease of 12.8% from the corresponding period in 2006. Overseas unit sales increased 9.5% to 810 thousand units from the corresponding period in 2006, due to the increased unit sales of CR-V in North America, Europe, Asia, the increased unit sales in other regions, and the increased unit sales of parts for local production at Hondas affiliates accounted for under the equity method in China. Revenue from external customers increased 11.1% to JPY 2,327.2 billion (USD 18,881 million) from the corresponding period in 2006, due mainly to the increased unit sales and the positive impact of the currency translation effects. Operating income decreased 1.2% to JPY 148.3 billion (USD 1,203 million) from the corresponding period in 2006, due mainly to the substantially increased raw material costs, the increased depreciation expenses, the increased sales incentives mainly in North America, the increased SG&A expenses and the increased R&D expenses, offsetting the positive impact of the increased profit attributable to higher revenue, continuing cost reduction effects and the currency effects caused by the depreciation of the Japanese yen.
Revenue from external customers in financial services business increased 39.9% to JPY 125.8 billion (USD 1,021 million) from the corresponding period in 2006, due mainly to the increased sales attributable to the increase in finance subsidiaries-receivables from the growth of automobile business in North America, the positive impact of the currency translation effects and the increased operating lease revenues. Operating income increased 16.9% to JPY 34.2 billion (USD 278 million) from the corresponding period in 2006, due primarily to the increased profit attributable to higher revenue and the positive impact of the currency effects caused by the depreciation of the Japanese yen, which offset the increased SG&A expenses.

In Japan, unit sales totaled 135 thousand units, a decrease of 1.5% from the corresponding period in 2006. Overseas unit sales was 1,394 thousand units, a decrease of 12.2% from the corresponding period in 2006, mainly due to decreased unit sales of engines supplied on an OEM basis in North America, offsetting the positive impact of increased sales of general purpose engines in Asia. Revenue from external customers in power product and other businesses increased by 5.5% to JPY 109.7 billion (USD 890 million) from the corresponding period in 2006, due mainly to the positive impact of the currency translation effects. Operating income decreased 27.6% to JPY 7.9 billion (USD 65 million) from the corresponding period in 2006. This was primarily due to the increased SG&A expenses and the increased R&D expenses, offsetting the positive impact of the currency effects caused by the depreciation of the Japanese yen.
* | OEM (Original equipment manufacturing) |
OEM refers to a manufacturing of products and components supplied for sale under a third-party brand.

Number of affiliated companies: 102
3. | Changes of consolidated subsidiaries and affiliated companies |
Consolidated subsidiaries:
Newly formed consolidated subsidiaries: 3
Reduced through reorganization: 10
Affiliated companies:
Newly formed affiliated companies: 2
Reduced through reorganization: 2
4. | The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, since the Company has listed its American Depositary Shares on the New York Stock Exchange and files reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. |
5. | The average exchange rates for the fiscal first quarter ended June 30, 2007 were ¥120.79=U.S.$1 and ¥162.72= euro 1. The average exchange rates for the corresponding period last year were ¥114.50=U.S.$1 and ¥143.78= euro 1. |
6. | United States dollar amounts have been translated from yen solely for the convenience of the reader at the rate of ¥123.26=U.S.$1, the mean of the telegraphic transfer selling exchange rate and the telegraphic transfer buying exchange rate prevailing on the Tokyo foreign exchange market on June 29, 2007. |
7. | Hondas common stock-to-ADS exchange ratio is one share of common stock to one ADS. |
8. | Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined principally by the first-in, first-out method, or market. |
9. | Honda classifies its debt and equity securities in the following categories: available-for-sale, trading, or held-to-maturity. Debt securities that are classified as held-to-maturity securities are reported at amortized cost. Debt and equity securities classified as trading securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Other marketable debt and equity securities are classified as available-for-sale securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses, net of deferred taxes included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the stockholders equity section of the consolidated balance sheets. |
10. | Goodwill, all of which is allocated to Hondas reporting units, is not amortized but instead is tested for impairment at least annually. |
11. | Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated principally by the declining-balance method based on estimated useful lives and salvage values of the respective assets. |
12. | Honda applies hedge accounting for certain foreign currency forward contracts related to forecasted foreign currency transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries. |
13. | The allowance for credit losses is maintained at an amount management deems adequate to cover estimated losses on finance receivables. The allowance is based on managements evaluation of many factors, including current economic trends, industry experience, inherent risks in the portfolio and the borrowers ability to pay. |
14. | Finance subsidiaries of the Company purchase insurance to cover a substantial amount of the estimated residual value of vehicles leased to customers. The allowance for losses on lease residual values is maintained at an amount management deems adequate to cover estimated losses on the uninsured portion of the vehicles lease residual values. The allowance is also based on managements evaluation of many factors, including current economic conditions, industry experience and the finance subsidiaries historical experience with residual value losses. |
- 17 -
15. | Provisions for retirement benefits are provided based on the fair value of both projected benefit obligations and plan assets at the end of the fiscal year to cover for employees retirement benefits. The Company recognizes its overfunded or underfunded status for the defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its consolidated balance sheets and recognizes changes in the funded status in accumulated comprehensive income (loss), net of taxes. Net transition obligation has been amortized over approximately 19 years since the fiscal year ended March 31, 1990. Prior service cost (benefit) is amortized by using the straight-line method and the estimated average remaining service years of employees. Actuarial loss is amortized if unrecognized net gain or loss exceeds ten percent of the greater of the projected benefit obligation or the market-related value of plan assets by using the straight-line method and the estimated average remaining service years of employees. |
16. | Estimated warranty expenses are provided based on historical warranty claim experience with consideration given to the expected level of future warranty costs as well as current information on repair costs. Included in warranty expenses accruals are costs for general warranties on vehicles Honda sells and product recalls. |
