Operating Profit

Ellomay Capital (ELLO) reported Dorad Energy’s Q3‑2025 interim results. Through its 50% stake in Ellomay Luzon Energy, Ellomay holds ~16.9% of Dorad. The company generated ₪ 919.1 million in revenue and ₪ 205.8 million operating profit, driven by summer demand and the TAOZ tariff, thus not representative of full‑year performance. Operating cash flow was ₪ 554.8 million, while financing activities used ₪ 218.9 million. The unaudited figures were not reviewed by Ellomay’s auditors. Key risks include seasonality, CPI‑linked interest costs and regulatory changes.

Toyota has revised its full-year operating profit forecast upward to 3.4 trillion yen, despite a 1.45 trillion yen hit from U.S. tariffs. The September quarter’s operating profit, however, fell short of analyst estimates due to these tariffs, with a nearly 28% year-over-year decline in quarterly profit despite increased revenue. Toyota is exploring exporting U.S.-made vehicles to Japan in response to trade agreements. Analysts expect continued pressure on profitability, with potential recovery contingent on trade stability and currency fluctuations amidst growing EV competition.
