Gasgoo Munich- Chinese battery manufacturer Gotion High-Tech expects its first-half net profit to more than triple at the upper end of its forecast, although investment-related gains—not its core battery operations—will account for most of the increase.Image source: Gotion High-TechThe company projected net profit attributable to shareholders of 1.2 billion yuan to 1.55 billion yuan for the six months ended June 30, representing year-on-year growth of 227.31% to 322.77%. It reported 366.63 million yuan in the same period of 2025.同时,国轩高科预计扣除非经常性损益后的净利润为8500万元至1.2亿元,相比上年同期的7287.07万元,增长幅度为16.65%至64.68%。基本每股收益预计在0.66元/股至0.85元/股之间,上年同期为0.20元/股。The outlook for underlying earnings was considerably more modest. Net profit excluding non-recurring gains and losses is expected to range from 85 million yuan to 120 million yuan, up 16.65% to 64.68% from 72.87 million yuan a year earlier.Gotion High-Techforecast basic earnings per share of 0.66 yuan to 0.85 yuan, compared with 0.20 yuan in the first half of 2025. The estimates are preliminary and have not been audited.Gotion High-Techattributed the improvement in its core operations to faster commercialization of research and development projects, product upgrades and a more favorable customer mix. It also said stronger market development in China and overseas helped lift its market share and support growth in its battery business.The company did not disclose first-half revenue, shipment volumes or segment-level profitability in the forecast. Those figures are expected to be provided in its full interim report.此外,公告特别说明,非经常性损益对公司净利润产生了较大影响。报告期内,非经常性损益金额预计约为11亿元至14亿元,主要来源于公司所持股票产生的投资收益及公允价值变动损益。The headline profit increase was driven primarily by non-recurring items estimated at 1.1 billion yuan to 1.4 billion yuan. These gains arose mainly from investment income and changes in the fair value of shares held by Gotion High-Tech.Based on the company's forecast ranges, such items account for roughly nine-tenths of projected net profit. The large gap between reported and adjusted earnings therefore indicates that the increase in overall profit substantially outpaced improvement in the company's underlying battery operations.
