DENSO Announces Third Quarter Financial Results

“Revenue in the third quarter increased compared to the previous year due to sales recovery, sales expansion and foreign exchange gains. Operating profit increased compared to the previous year due to sales recovery, exchange gains and profit improvements.” said Yasushi Matsui, CFO, senior executive officer and member of the Board of Directors of DENSO Corporation. “We have revised our revenue and operating profit forecasts for the year based on changing foreign exchange preconditions and current vehicle production losses, adjusting our revenue projection to 6,200.0 billion yen (US$46.3 billion) and our operating profit projection to 420.0 billion yen (US$3.1 billion). Challenging external factors, such as increased costs related to inflation, logistics, energy, materials and parts, have led us to pursue profit improvements, and we are working with customers to reflect this impact in sales prices globally.”
