Steady Business Performance with Double-Digit Profit Growth

HONG KONG, Nov 9, 2023 - (ACN Newswire) - Nissin Foods Company Limited ("Nissin Foods" or the "Company", together with its subsidiaries, the "Group"; Stock code: 1475) today announced its unaudited third quarter financial results for the nine months ended 30 September 2023 (the "Reporting Period").

The Group recorded revenue of HK$2,956.0 million for the Reporting Period. Gross profit increased by 2.8% to HK$1,005.8 million, and gross profit margin increased by 2.6 percentage points to 34.0% from 31.4% (restated) for the corresponding period of 2022. The increase in gross profit margin was mainly attributable to the price adjustments implemented last year and the easing of raw material costs during the Reporting Period. Profit attributable to owners of the Company for the Reporting Period increased by 16.1% to HK$270.4 million, compared with HK$233.0 million (restated) for the corresponding period of 2022.

Revenue from Hong Kong and other Asian operations was HK$1,142.1 million. As for the Mainland China operation, due to the depreciation of the Renminbi against the Hong Kong dollar, revenue of HK$1,813.9 million (in local currency: -0.2%) was recorded for the Reporting Period.

Mr Kiyotaka ANDO, Executive Director, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Nissin Foods, said, "We are pleased to have achieved double-digit profit growth amidst the challenging business landscape. During the Reporting Period, the Group continued to implement its strategy of cost control and price adjustment, with the aim of maintaining stable business performance. In view of the uncertain macro environment and economy, we anticipate that the consumer market will remain intense, and therefore we remain cautiously optimistic about the future outlook. Nissin Foods will continue to strengthen its overall competitiveness through a well-diversified product portfolio and premiumisation strategy, while increasing brand recognition in the regions in which it operates, in order to create long-term value for our customers and shareholders."
