TOKYO — Toyota Motor said it was still being hit by chip shortages as it cut its annual production forecast and kept its full-year outlook for net profit unchanged.
The Japanese carmaker on Tuesday said net income for the April-September period, its first half, was 1.17 trillion yen ($7.88 billion), down 23.2% from the previous year, as the weak yen failed to offset rising raw material prices and production constraints including semiconductor supplies.
