Bridgestone Corp. said Monday that it plans to sell its business in Russia to a local entity, citing uncertainty over supply challenges.

The Japanese tire maker said it expected more losses from the potential exit, in addition to the Russia business-related losses of 16.8 billion yen ($113.9 million) it booked in the second quarter.

Bridgestone said its Russia business made up less than 2% of total revenue and didn't issue any changes to its fiscal-year earnings guidance.

The company said it will take a few months to select the buyer and complete the sale.

Bridgestone in March suspend manufacturing activities in Russia and exports of tires to Russia following the country's invasion of Ukraine.
