Thailand corporate earnings projected to grow 25.6% in Q3

Asia Plus Securities forecasts that Thai listed companies will see a strong 25.6% year-on-year increase in total profits for the third quarter of 2026, reaching approximately 278 billion baht. While this represents a 15.4% decline from the previous quarter due to seasonal factors, the energy and banking sectors are expected to lead in profit value.

Market analysts note a positive signal from foreign investors, who have engaged in net buying for several consecutive days. Despite potential short-term pressure from slowing capital flows and uncertainty surrounding the Monetary Policy Committee's upcoming meeting, sectors such as tourism, electronics, medical, and construction show signs of robust performance.

In individual corporate news, Home Product Center Public Company Limited (HomePro) reported a Q3 2026 net profit of 1.32 billion baht, a 1.37% increase from the previous year. The company attributed this growth to improved cost management and an increased proportion of high-margin and private-brand products.
