Halbjahresbilanz: Toyotas Aktie schießt nach Gewinnprognose in die Höhe
Der weltgrößte Autobauer stellt fallenden Gewinnmargen eine radikale Reorganisation, eine Roboteroffensive und Sparen entgegen. Kanzler Merz ist dabei ebenfalls relevant.
Tokyo - Toyota's share price soared 16.7 percent on Thursday, as investors reacted euphorically to the company's half-year results. The catalyst was Toyota's upward revision of its operating profit forecast by 14.7 percent to 3.9 trillion yen (21.9 billion euros) for the fiscal year ending March 2027. Despite challenges from US tariffs, competition from China, and the Iran war, the optimistic outlook came as no surprise given the anticipation surrounding the results.
Kenta Kon, who took over as the company's chief financial officer in April, was expected to curb the gradual rise in the profit margin threshold and curb profitability decline. The revised figures suggest that Toyota is close to reaching the pre-pandemic profitability level, with no further losses in profitability anticipated. In addition to the financial outlook, Toyota's management announced a comprehensive organizational reform to enhance agility, as well as plans for expanding robot usage across factories, other industries, and everyday life.
