While production constraints continued throughout the fiscal year, mainly due to semiconductor shortages, global production increased 20.3% to 874,000 units as the company worked to minimize the impact through measures such as flexible rescheduling of production plans.
Production in Japan rose 26.3% to 575,000 units, while production in the U.S. grew 10.1% to 299,000 units.
As a result of the production increase, global unit sales rose 16.1% to 852,000 units, led by steady sales in Subaru's key U.S. market.
Due to the positive effects of foreign exchange rates, the unit sales growth, and other factors, consolidated revenue rose 37.5% to 3,774.5 billion yen.
As positive factors such as the effects of foreign exchange rates and sales volume growth more than offset the negative effects of material cost increases and higher SG&A expenses, operating profit rose 177.0 billion yen to 267.5 billion yen, profit before tax grew 171.4 billion yen to 278.4 billion yen, and profit for the period attributable to owners of parent increased 130.4 billion yen to 200.4 billion yen.

Global unit sales are forecast at 1,010,000 units, with the key U.S. market expected to lead sales growth.
While the negative impact of the stronger yen is expected, taking into account sales volume growth, the Company forecasts revenue of 4,200 billion yen (up 11.3% y/y), operating profit of 300 billion yen (up 12.2% y/y), profit before tax of 300 billion yen (up 7.8% y/y), and profit for the period attributable to owners of parent of 210 billion yen (up 4.8% y/y).
The forecasts are based on exchange rate assumptions of 128 yen to the U.S. dollar and 138 yen to the euro.
