Kubota Corporation, a leading player in the farm and industrial machinery sector, has released its financial results for the first half of 2025, showcasing its extensive operations in manufacturing equipment for agriculture, construction, and water systems.
In the latest earnings report, Kubota reported a decline in revenue to ¥1,454,933 million, a 7.9% decrease from the previous year. Despite the drop in revenue, the company managed to maintain a steady dividend forecast, reflecting its commitment to shareholder returns.
Key financial metrics revealed a significant decline in operating profit by 31% to ¥143,028 million and a 30.1% decrease in profit before income taxes to ¥151,451 million. The profit attributable to owners of the parent also saw a substantial drop of 38.7% to ¥92,479 million. The company faced challenges in its overseas markets, particularly in North America and Europe, which contributed to the overall decline in revenue.
Looking ahead, Kubota’s management remains cautiously optimistic, maintaining its revenue forecast for the year ending December 31, 2025, at ¥2,880,000 million, despite the challenging market conditions. The company plans to continue focusing on its core segments and exploring opportunities for growth in emerging markets.
