Trading house Mitsubishi Corp. said Thursday it posted a group net profit of 28.69 billion yen in the April-June quarter, achieving 95.6 percent of its first half-year target and 35.9 percent of the full-year projection for the business year to March.

But the projected net profit of 30 billion yen for the first six months was down from 75.92 billion yen posted a year earlier.
