TOKYO: Nissan Motor Co is drawing up plans to replace its chief executive officer (CEO) following another dismal set of earnings and the collapse of talks to combine with Honda Motor Co, according to people familiar with the matter.

Nissan directors are gauging interest in potential candidates to succeed Makoto Uchida, the 22-year company veteran who’s been chief executive officer since late 2019, one of the people said, asking not to be identified because the deliberations are private. Nissan declined to comment.
