The company recently released its earnings report for the three months ending June 30, 2025, showing a decline in net sales and profits compared to the previous year.

The company’s segment performance showed varied results, with the Environmental Management & Recycling and Nonferrous Metals segments experiencing sales growth, while the Electronic Materials segment faced a significant decline. The company’s strategic focus on these sectors remains evident, as they continue to contribute substantially to overall sales.
Looking ahead, Dowa Holdings remains cautiously optimistic, with a full-year forecast projecting a 2.0% increase in net sales to ¥692,000 million. However, the company anticipates a decrease in operating profit by 25.5% and ordinary profit by 22.0%, reflecting ongoing challenges in the market. The management remains committed to navigating these challenges and leveraging its diverse business portfolio to drive future growth.
