Operating Income

Toyota’s operating income increased by ¥31.7 billion, or 1.4%, to ¥2,270.3 billion during fiscal 2008 compared with the prior year. Operating income was favorably affected by the vehicle unit sales growth, the changes in sales mix, the impact of increased parts sales, continued cost reduction efforts and the favorable impact of fluctuations in foreign currency translation rates. These increases were partially offset by increases in research and development expenses and the increases in expenses due to business expansion. As a result, operating income decreased to 8.6% as a percentage of net revenues for fiscal 2008 compared to 9.3% in the prior year.

During fiscal 2008, operating income (before the elimination of intersegment profits) for significant geographic regions decreased by ¥16.9 billion, or 1.2%, in Japan, decreased by ¥144.3 billion, or 32.1%, in North

The decrease in Japan was mainly due to an increase in expenses including research and development expenses, partially offset by the vehicle unit sales growth in the export markets and continued cost reduction efforts. The decrease in North America was mainly due to an increase in valuation losses on interest rate swaps stated at fair value and the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency translation rates partially offset by the increase in production volume and vehicle unit sales and continued cost reduction efforts in the manufacturing operations. The increases in Europe were mainly due to the impact of an increase in production volume and vehicle unit sales, continued cost reduction efforts in the manufacturing operations and the favorable impact of fluctuations in foreign currency translation rates. The increases in Asia were mainly due to the impact of an increase in production volume and vehicle unit sales. The increase in Other was primarily due to the impact of the increase in production volume and vehicle unit sales.

The following is a discussion of operating income for each of Toyota’s business segments. The operating income amounts discussed are before the elimination of intersegment profits.

Operating Income

 

Toyota’s operating income increased by ¥395.2 billion, or 31.1%, to ¥1,666.8 billion during fiscal 2004 compared with the prior year. Operating income was favorably affected primarily by vehicle unit sales growth, the impact of increased parts and service sales, continued cost reduction efforts, net gains on the transfer of the substitutional portion of certain employee pension funds and the consolidation of the results of subsidiaries previously accounted for on the equity basis. These increases were partially offset by increases in labor costs and advertising costs. As a result, operating income as a percentage of revenue increased to 9.6% for fiscal 2005 compared to 8.2% in the prior years.

 

During fiscal 2004, operating income (before the elimination of intersegment profits) increased by ¥163.8 billion, or 17.4%, in Japan, ¥111.0 billion, or 39.6%, in North America, ¥64.2 billion, or 772.7% in Europe and ¥51.3 billion, or 112.4% in all other markets compared with the prior year. The increase in Japan relates primarily to the impact of increased production volume and vehicle unit sales, continued cost reduction efforts, the impact of the net gains on the transfer of the substitutional portion of certain employee funds and the consolidation of the results of subsidiaries previously accounted for on the equity basis. These increases were partially offset by the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency translation rates against Toyota’s non-domestic sales produced in Japan. The increase in North America relates primarily to the increase in production volume and vehicle unit sales, the impact of cost reduction efforts of manufacturing companies, lower provisions for credit losses and the impact of unrealized gains on interest rate swaps held by sales financing subsidiaries, that were partially offset by the negative impact of the exchange rate of the yen against the U.S. dollar. The increase in the European market relates mainly to the impact of cost reduction efforts of manufacturing companies, an
