An announcement from Sharp Corporation ( (JP:6753) ) is now available.

Sharp Corporation reported that in the cumulative third quarter of fiscal 2025 its Brand Business delivered double-digit operating profit growth despite lower sales driven by weaker demand and intensifying competition. The Display Device segment reduced its operating loss even as revenue declined, highlighting ongoing efforts to stabilize performance in that unit.

Overall, consolidated net sales fell year on year, but operating profit more than doubled to 40.9 billion yen from 20.3 billion yen, with ordinary and bottom-line profit also improving significantly. Management said net sales and operating profit are tracking in line with plan, and while additional restructuring costs have been incorporated into the full-year outlook, improved non-operating income is expected to support achievement of the previously guided full-year profit.
