Formosa Chemicals and Fibre reported a first-half 2026 profit rebound, while six analysts set an average target of TWD 65.83 for FCFC stock. According to Quartr on September 16, 2026, first-half revenue reached TWD 168.9 billion, up 11.00 percent year over year, and net profit reached TWD 13.05 billion after a loss in the first half of 2025.
Profit returns in first half
The improvement extended beyond revenue. First-half 2026 operating profit was TWD 5.05 billion, compared with a TWD 2.97 billion operating loss in the first half of 2025, while net profit margin improved to 7.70 percent from minus 4.90 percent.
Quartr also reports first-half earnings per share of TWD 2.23, compared with minus TWD 1.27 in the prior-year period. The figures point to a broad recovery in operating performance, although the company remains exposed to swings in crude oil and petrochemical feedstock prices.
Analyst target stays below market
The analyst picture is more cautious than the earnings rebound. Investing.com lists six analysts, including four Buy ratings, one Hold and one Sell, with an average 12-month target of TWD 65.83 and a target range of TWD 20.00 to TWD 84.00. The average target is below the October 6 market quote, making the consensus less optimistic than the latest earnings trend.
Operational momentum has also appeared in monthly data. TradingView carried Dow Jones Newswires data showing August revenue of TWD 30.56 billion, compared with TWD 23.20 billion a year earlier, while revenue for the first eight months reached TWD 230.73 billion versus TWD 198.96 billion.
