Mitsubishi Motors Corp. on Wednesday abstained from releasing a forecast for fiscal 2016 as a scandal involving falsified fuel efficiency figures threatened to be a road wreck for the automaker.
Managing Director Yutaka Tabata said it will be "difficult" to come up with a forecast until the full extent of the scandal is known.
He was speaking at a news conference after the release of corporate earnings for fiscal 2015, in which it posted an operating profit of ¥138 billion, up 1.8 percent, on sales of ¥2.26 trillion, up 4 percent.
