In the first half of the year, tariff and exchange rate fluctuations introduced significant uncertainty. As clarity emerges in trade talks and currency market volatility begins to moderate, we expect the impact on operations to ease in the second half. In response to the increasingly complex global trade landscape and evolving supply chain dynamics, we will continue to leverage our global service capabilities to respond with agility and support our suppliers and customers’ worldwide deployment strategies.
On the demand front, AI-driven momentum remains robust and is expected to serve as a key growth driver for WT in the second half of the year and into 2026. Meanwhile, major markets like Americas and EMEA. have emerged from the trough of inventory correction cycle. With supply chains’ inventories returning to healthier levels, a steady gradual recovery in industrial and automotive demand is underway—further supporting WT’s revenue and profitability growth.
