Denso revenue down 1.1% in half year results as vehicle sales in Asia slows

The group is also impacted by the suspended operations of Japanese customers.

Denso Corporation, an automotive components manufacturer, experienced a 1.1% year-on-year (YoY) revenue decrease for the six months ended 30 September due to a decline in vehicle production, driven by slowing vehicle sales in Asia and ongoing suspensions of operations amongst Japanese customers.

Denso, a major Toyota manufacturer, said that operating profit increased by 18.6% YoY mainly due to the depreciation of the yen and efforts of cost reduction despite production volume decrease.

The group still reported a profit before income taxes increased by 13.8% YoY. Profit for the period increased by 10.8% YoY whilst profit attributable to owners of the parent company 13%.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
