Tightening credit has also made itdifficult for potential buyers to get financing. Honda, Japan's second-biggest automaker, this week announcedfurther production cuts of 50,000 vehicles for the year toend-March, on top of the 370,000 that had been planned in NorthAmerica, Europe and Japan. ID:nT71705 "The sales environment is changing faster than we were ableto predict," Honda Executive Vice President Koichi Kondo told anews conference, noting that four profit warnings in a singleyear was probably unprecedented in Honda's history "We don't expect conditions in the U.S. to improve in thefirst half of next year, and we can only hope they will start torecover in the second half," he added. Struggling to clear bloated inventory, Honda is scheduled toclose its UK factory for four months starting in February.ID:nLG639292 Kondo said it would likely take until June or July to bringglobal inventory down to appropriate levels. Honda said it expected an operating profit for the year toend-March of 140 billion yen ($1.6 billion), down from a record953 billion yen last year and below its previous profit forecastof 180 billion yen.

Half of that will likely come from its motorcycle business,Kondo said, noting the segment's high level of local productionand parts procurement helped to shield Honda more effectivelyagainst currency swings compared with other Japanese carmakers. Honda expects annual net profit of 80 billion yen instead of185 billion yen. ID:nT190735 Analysts have said automakers' final results for this yearcould change dramatically depending on how much and how earlythey set aside reserves against financing losses and other coststo start the new year on a cleaner slate. Honda said it now sees losses from soured credit and fallingresidual values of used cars to total almost 100 billion yen thisyear, double what it had foreseen three months ago.
