TOKYO, Apr 25, 2025 - (JCN Newswire) - DENSO, a leading mobility supplier, today announced global financial results for its 2025 fiscal year, ending March 31, 2025:
- Consolidated revenue totaled 7,161.8 billion yen (US$47.9 billion), a 0.2 percent increase from the previous year.
- Consolidated operating profit totaled 519.0 billion yen (US$3.5 billion), a 36.4 percent increase from the previous year.
- Consolidated profit attributable to owners of the parent company totaled 419.1 billion yen(US$2.8 billion), a 34.0 percent increase from the previous year.
“Despite lower vehicle production volumes in Asia and suspensions of operations by Japanese customers, revenue increased compared to the previous year thanks in part to yen depreciation, which boosted our performance overall. Operating profit increased compared to the previous year as well through foreign exchange gains and cost management efforts, helping us overcome lower production volumes and increasing parts and material costs.” said Yasushi Matsui, CFO, Executive Vice President and member of the Board of Directors of DENSO CORPORATION. “In the next fiscal year, we forecast revenue to slightly decrease to 7,050.0 billion yen (US$47.2 billion), reflecting conversion differences caused by the precondition of a stronger yen. We forecast operating profit, however, to rise to 675.0 billion yen (US$4.5 billion) and operating profit margin to be 9.6%. To reach these targets, we will continue to manage increasing parts costs and foreign exchange losses, and leverage business improvement activities to exceed potential market challenges. The annual dividend for the concluded fiscal year is 64 yen, with DOE up to 3.5%. The forecast for the next fiscal year is 64 yen, same as the 2025 fiscal year. We continue to strive to improve the DOE level in a long-term and stable manner.”
