Bernstein maintained its Hold rating on Honda Motor and set a JPY 1,400 price target in a report dated October 12, 2026, according to Markets Insider. Honda Motor stock was at EUR 30.50 at Lang & Schwarz on October 27, 2026 at 7:17 p.m. CEST.

Bernstein keeps a cautious view

Bernstein's target is below Honda's Japanese share price of JPY 1,792 cited by Simply Wall St on October 27, 2026. The difference is JPY 392, or 21.88 percent below the share price. The comparison uses Honda's Tokyo-listed common shares, while the euro quotation represents the US depositary share.

The same Simply Wall St analysis said Honda generated JPY 6,061.514 billion in revenue and JPY 450.915 billion in net income in the first quarter of fiscal 2027, the period ended June 30, 2026. Net margin rose to 7.4 percent from 3.7 percent in the comparable first quarter, a change of 3.7 percentage points.

Revenue and margin set the frame

Honda's first-quarter operating profit was JPY 530.767 billion, while the standardized financial figures show JPY 6,061.514 billion in revenue. Operating profit represented 8.76 percent of revenue for the period. The company operates across motorcycles, automobiles, financial services and power products.

The earnings mix matters because Honda's first-quarter net income reached JPY 450.915 billion after a net loss of JPY 889.378 billion in the preceding quarter ended March 31, 2026. That sequential comparison shows a sharp swing in reported profitability, although the periods are not seasonally identical.

November 10 results are next

Honda's investor-relations page states that fiscal second-quarter results for the period ended September 30, 2026, will be announced on November 10, 2026, at 3:35 p.m. JST. The release and presentation are scheduled for 3:30 p.m. JST. The next report will give investors a fresh test of whether the first-quarter margin improvement continued.

Honda Motor's market capitalization was USD 44.5 billion as of October 27, 2026. The stock's primary US quotation was USD 34.12 at 6:19 p.m. UTC on that date, while the German euro quotation stood at EUR 30.50 at 7:17 p.m. CEST.

Price and investor perspective

Honda combines a JPY 1,400 Bernstein target with a first-quarter net margin of 7.4 percent and a November reporting date. Those figures leave the upcoming results as the next concrete test of the company's earnings recovery.
