Japan’s Kawasaki Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. announced on the 30th that it has lowered its performance expectations, and said that due to the significant deterioration in the performance of the ship’s marine business, it "will consider future policies including whether the business can continue." The company will set up a "structural reform meeting" headed by President Jin Huafang, and will discuss the end of the business and strive to announce its conclusions by the end of 2016.
Kawasaki Heavy Industries announced that it will lower its consolidated net profit forecast for the first half of 2016 to a loss of 5 billion yen (approximately RMB 330 million). The previous forecast was a profit of 14.5 billion yen.
