Eclat Textile stock outlook strengthens as fourth-quarter revenue rises

Eclat Textile is expecting fourth-quarter revenue to exceed the third-quarter level, with higher shipments and stable average selling prices supporting the outlook. Chairman Richard Wang made the comments on October 6 at the Taipei Innovative Textile Application Show, according to Taipei Times.

Production remains at full capacity

Eclat reported third-quarter revenue of NT$10.57 billion, up 4.8 percent from the previous quarter and 9.7 percent from a year earlier. The quarterly figure was the company's highest since the third quarter of 2022, while revenue for the first nine months reached NT$30.28 billion, an annual increase of 5.4 percent.

Wang said Eclat's production facilities were operating at full capacity. He also described the company's performance outlook for the first quarter of 2027 as positive, with order visibility extending into the second quarter. Product prices are expected to rise next year, although the eventual increase will depend on oil and raw-material costs.

New customers offset softer brand orders

Orders from Nike and Lululemon have slowed amid weaker sales and difficult market conditions, but Eclat continues to work closely with both customers. The company also serves Gap, Target and Under Armour, and added three customers during the year. One of the new customers began placing orders in the third quarter, helping fill the gap left by larger accounts.
