Formosa Plastics (ISIN TW0001301000) reported September revenue growth of 7.14 percent year over year, while its stock carried a 0.62 percent dividend yield on October 13, 2026. TradingView reported on October 12, 2026 that the company said September revenue increased 7.14 percent from a year earlier.

Three dated operating markers

On September 21, 2026, Quartr summarized second-quarter revenue of TWD 47.20 billion, up 4.10 percent year over year. On October 8, 2026, Formosa Plastics reached TWD 82.40 during trading, according to Storm Media. On October 12, 2026, September revenue growth became the latest reported operating marker, as TradingView carried the company statement.

What does the earnings rebound show?

The second-quarter improvement was visible in profitability as well as sales. Quartr said pre-tax income reached TWD 10.86 billion in the second quarter of 2026, compared with a TWD 2.88 billion loss in the first quarter of 2026. Six-month net income reached TWD 13.92 billion, versus a TWD 6.58 billion loss in the same period of 2025.

The mix matters for investors. Quartr said higher average selling prices supported most product divisions, while specialty chemicals increased their revenue contribution to 10.00 percent in the second quarter of 2026 from 8.00 percent in the second quarter of 2025. That shift gives the earnings recovery a second support beyond the traditional plastics portfolio.

Target rises as operating risks remain

Storm Media reported on October 8, 2026 that a local broker maintained a Buy rating and raised its target from TWD 80.00 to TWD 85.00. The same report said the estimate for full-year 2026 earnings per share rose from TWD 3.77 to TWD 4.18.

The counter-factor is the core chemicals business. Storm Media said the broker expected the third-quarter operating business to remain loss-making because product prices had lagged feedstock costs, leaving investment income and affiliate contributions to carry more of the profit recovery.
