JTEKT Corporation is a prominent Japanese manufacturer specializing in automotive components, industrial bearings, and machine tools, listed on the Tokyo and Nagoya stock exchanges.
In its latest earnings report for the nine months ending December 31, 2024, JTEKT Corporation announced a decline in both revenue and profit compared to the previous year, amidst a challenging economic environment marked by slowing growth in key automotive markets and heightened geopolitical tensions.
The company reported a 1.9% decrease in revenue to 1,385,066 million yen and a significant drop in business profit by 36% to 34,924 million yen. Profit attributable to the owners of the parent company also fell sharply by 72.7% to 9,947 million yen. Segment-wise, the Automotive and Industrial and Bearings sectors saw declines in revenue, while the Machine Tools segment experienced growth.
Despite these setbacks, JTEKT’s financial position showed resilience with a slight increase in total assets, driven by higher inventories and other financial assets. The company’s equity also improved, indicating a stable financial foundation.
Looking ahead, JTEKT has revised its financial forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025, anticipating a continued challenging environment but maintaining a focus on strategic priorities such as shareholder returns through the acquisition of own shares.
