Yung Jie, the Taiwan-listed PU synthetic leather manufacturer, remained loss-making in the first half of 2026 but sharply narrowed its deficit as consolidated revenue rose 76.15% year on year to NT$1.19 billion, or about $36.8 million. Net loss after tax fell to NT$17.74 million, or about $551,463, with loss per share of NT$0.1, while gross profit increased 28.76% to NT$173 million, suggesting early progress in cost controls and product mix optimization. Momentum carried into July, when consolidated revenue reached NT$150 million, up 5.65% from June and 14.66% from a year earlier, bringing revenue for the first seven months of 2026 to NT$1.33 billion, up 66.13%. Market analysts said both the July monthly figure and the January-July cumulative total were record highs for the same period. Growth was driven by stronger demand for high-value-added eco-friendly PU resins and water-based PU materials, along with recognized property sales revenue from the on-schedule completion and handover of the "He Jiu Jing" construction project. For the second half, Yung Jie said it would pursue a "vertical integration and diversified development" strategy focused on green, high-value products and broader applications across traditional PU and high-tech electronics markets, while maintaining a cautiously optimistic outlook amid geopolitical and inflation pressures.
