Dowa Holdings Co ( (JP:5714) ) has shared an announcement.
Dowa Holdings reported consolidated net sales of ¥498.7 billion for the third quarter of fiscal 2025, down 4% from the prior-year period, while operating profit halved to ¥12.7 billion and ordinary profit fell 36% to ¥21.9 billion. Despite weaker profitability in the quarter, profit attributable to owners of the parent reached ¥18.5 billion, narrowing the year-on-year decline to 22% and underpinning a sharp full-year forecast increase to ¥54.0 billion amid a backdrop of higher copper and zinc prices and a weaker yen.
The company maintains full-year forecasts of ¥710.0 billion in net sales and ¥27.0 billion in operating profit, implying some recovery in earnings momentum in the final quarter. Assumptions for the remainder of fiscal 2025 include a yen-dollar exchange rate of ¥155 and higher average copper and zinc prices versus the first three quarters, suggesting that market conditions and commodity trends will remain key drivers for Dowa’s margins and returns to shareholders.
