Overview of Results
For the six months ended October 2026, consolidated net sales were 15,131 million yen (year-on-year +9.6%), while operating income was 533 million yen (year-on-year -49.3%), a substantial decrease. In Photonics, demand for optical press components for the digital camera market remained solid, supporting sales growth, but profitability improved only gradually due to higher raw material costs, rare earth procurement risk, and product mix. In Electronics, ongoing inventory adjustments weighed on performance, though demand benefited from strong adoption of low-dielectric glass, resulting in a net sales increase but with an ongoing profit decline due to product mix changes. The full-year outlook, while incorporating geopolitical risks not yet reflected, anticipates overall net sales reaching a record high.
