Herald Holdings (HKG:0114) forecasts its attributable profit to rise to between HK$25 million and HK$30 million in the half-year ended Sept. 30 from HK$8.2 million a year earlier.

The toy manufacturer attributes the upbeat forecast to an increase in net realized and unrealized gains and cost-control measures, the filing said.

Herald plans to release fiscal half-year results by the end of November, according to a Friday filing with the Hong Kong Exchange.
