Summary of Performance

Aisin Corporation recorded revenue of 2,653,133 million yen in the second quarter (interim) of the fiscal year ending March 2027, an increase of 7.3% year-on-year. However, due to the weak yen and rising material costs, operating income declined 16.3% to 80,419 million yen, profit before tax fell 17.4% to 87,902 million yen, and net income attributable to owners of parent for the interim decreased 28.9% to 49,667 million yen, indicating continued pressure on profitability. By region, recovery trends were seen in North America, ASEAN and India, while Japan, Europe and China experienced notable declines in revenue and profit. The full-year forecast has been revised downward for operating income from 215,000 million yen, while revenue remains unchanged at 5,250,000 million yen.

Outlook and Capital Measures

The company has been conducting share buybacks, tender offers and cancellations since October 28, 2026, and these are reflected in the calculation of basic earnings per share for the fiscal year ending March 2027. The most recent dividend forecast remains unchanged. Exchange rate assumptions are 1 US dollar = 157 yen and 1 Chinese yuan = 23.3 yen. The revised interim and full-year financial outlooks note exchange rate and raw material cost fluctuations as key uncertainties and indicate that figures may be changed depending on future developments.
