TOKYO, Nov 1 (Reuters) – Japanese trading house Mitsubishi (8058.T), on Friday posted a net profit of 618 billion yen ($4 billion) for the six months to September, up 33% from a year earlier, driven by lower yen and divestments.
In September last year, the company reported a net profit of 466 billion yen. Mitsubishi kept its net profit forecast for the fiscal year ending in March unchanged at 950 billion yen.
