TOKYO—Nissan’s profit fell 68 percent in the last quarter as a shortage of computer chips hindered the Japanese automaker’s ability to deliver vehicles to its customers.
Nissan Motor Co. reported Wednesday that its profit was 17.4 billion yen ($119 million) in the July-September, down from 54 billion yen the same period a year earlier. Quarterly sales jumped to 2.5 trillion yen ($17 billion) from 1.9 trillion yen a year ago.
