Mitsubishi Motors Corporation has raised its forecasts for the first half of fiscal 2011/12 to 30 September, citing an “unexpected increase in sales volumes and reductions in selling expenses and other costs”.

It now expects sales of JPY907.5 trillion, up from JPY880 trillion, a 3.1% increase, operating income of JPY34.2bn (JPY18bn, 90%) and net income of JPY10.6bn (break-even).

“MMC expects the increase in operating income to compensate for increased non-operating loss due to currency exchange rates,” the automaker said in a statement.
