Kansai Electric Profit Rises Despite Lower Sales and Operating Income

Description

Kansai Electric Power reported a slight increase in net profit for the first half of fiscal twenty twenty-five, despite a dip in revenue and operating profit. The company's net profit was nearly two hundred thirty-three billion yen, thanks to better cost management. However, basic earnings per share decreased due to a stock split. Lower electricity retail prices and fuel costs contributed to the drop in sales. Kansai Electric raised its full-year dividend forecast to seventy-five yen per share, reflecting stable earnings and successful cost-cutting efforts. The company expects total sales to drop by about six and a half percent for the rest of the fiscal year, with operating profit and ordinary profit also projected to fall. Kansai Electric is focusing on running more efficiently, restarting nuclear plants, and investing in a lower-carbon future, with a pivot to renewables and nuclear energy to help Japan reach its net-zero target by twenty fifty.
