Tongtai Expands Across Diverse Markets as Automation and Overseas Capacity Expansion Drive Long-Term Growth
KAOHSIUNG, Taiwan, November 5, 2025 — Tongtai (4526.TW) held a board meeting today (5th) and approved its Q3 2025 financial results and operational updates. Consolidated revenue for the first three quarters reached NT$4 billion, a slight year-on-year decrease of 1.22%. Supported by investment income and stable contributions from subsidiaries, cumulative EPS for the first three quarters reached NT$2.61, improving from a loss of NT$1.52 during the same period last year. Overall consolidated profitability remained positive, with Q4 operations expected to remain stable.
Taiwan's machine tool industry continued facing a challenging international trade environment in 2025, with slowing export momentum and intensifying global competition. Cost pressures from exchange rates and tariffs, combined with aggressive low-price competition from Chinese manufacturers, have kept the industry in an adjustment cycle. Tongtai noted that previous exchange rate fluctuations negatively affected profitability, but since Q3, currency movements have shifted favorably, contributing to improved overall profitability.
In response to market challenges, Tongtai's mid- to long-term strategy will focus on strengthening core business fundamentals and improving profitability structure, with the objective of returning core operations to sustainable profitability.
Regarding major business segments, the machine tool market remains in consolidation and is expected to gradually recover by Q2 2026. Meanwhile, Tongtai's PCB equipment business continues benefiting from high-end production capacity relocation and overseas manufacturing expansion. With Taiwanese manufacturers increasing investments in Thailand and mainland China factories continuing automation upgrades, Tongtai expects continued order momentum ahead.
Tongtai stated that Q4 revenue is expected to remain comparable to the first three quarters, with overall operations maintaining stability. The company will continue optimizing its product portfolio and production efficiency while strengthening R&D and smart manufacturing technologies to improve operational flexibility and market competitiveness.
Looking ahead to 2026, Tongtai will focus on "Operational Optimization, Technology Leadership, and Global Expansion," promoting smart production line upgrades and cross-regional collaboration while strengthening international partnerships to enhance revenue growth and profitability quality.
Despite ongoing uncertainty in the global economic environment, Tongtai will continue leveraging its stable financial structure and diversified industry presence to deepen technological development and manufacturing upgrades, supporting customers worldwide in process optimization and production capacity expansion while advancing toward long-term growth and sustainable operations.
