Chang Wah Electromaterials (par value NT$1 per share) Announces Preliminary Financial Results for the Second Quarter of 2025

Issued by: Chang Wah Electromaterials Inc.
Issued on: July 30, 2025

Chang Wah Electromaterials Inc. (Chang Wah*, 8070) announced its preliminary operating results for the second quarter of 2025 on July 30. The Company reported unaudited consolidated revenue of NT$4,747 million for the quarter. Gross margin and operating margin were 17.6% and 11.1%, respectively. Net profit attributable to of the parent company totaled NT$110 million, with earnings per share (EPS) of NT$0.16, based on a par value of NT$1 per share.

Benefiting from continued growth in customer orders, Chang Wah's preliminary consolidated revenue increased for the fifth consecutive quarter. However, exchange rate fluctuations partially offset overall growth, resulting in a quarter-over-quarter increase of 5%. Gross profit declined slightly by 2% from the previous quarter, with gross margin down 1.3 percentage points to 17.6%. Despite the modest decline in gross profit, effective cost controls led to lower operating expenses compared to the previous quarter. As a result, operating profit rose by 6% quarter over quarter, with the operating margin improving to 11.1%, slightly higher than in the first quarter.

Regarding non-operating income and expenses, while dividend income contributed positively in the second quarter, the sharp appreciation of the New Taiwan dollar against the U.S. dollar led to foreign exchange losses. As a result, non-operating income turned into a loss, impacting overall profitability. Net profit attributable to owners of the parent company amounted to NT$110 million, down 67% from the previous quarter, with EPS of NT$0.16. Although recent exchange rate volatility has resulted in short-term foreign exchange losses, the overall impact remains within a manageable range, and the Company continues to maintain a solid and stable financial structure.
