Notice on Revisions to Earnings Forecast for the 2nd Quarter and Full Year of the Fiscal Year Ending March 2027

Summary of Results

We have raised our earnings forecast for the second quarter and the full year of the fiscal year ending March 2027. Interim period sales are expected at 5,361 million yen, operating income at 244 million yen, ordinary income at 257 million yen, and net income attributable to owners of parent at 151 million yen. Accordingly, full-year projections are 10,071 million yen in sales, 333 million yen in operating income, 351 million yen in ordinary income, and 203 million yen in net income attributable to owners of parent, with earnings per share improving to 29.81 yen from 40.03 yen. The primary drivers are progress in inventory adjustments of major customers, growth in AI-related demand, and expansion of high value-added products. While there are potential uncertainties in the second half due to geopolitical risks and fluctuations in parts supply, the figures are broadly in line with the initial plan.

Outlook and Key Factors

Key growth drivers include progress in inventory adjustments and expansion of AI-related demand. Profitability is expected to improve significantly due to the combined effect of higher revenue and the resolution of cost plan delays. The full-year forecast reflects the interim upward revision, and potential changes may arise depending on demand in the second half. Going forward, we will continue to operate in line with the initial plan while considering uncertainties such as parts supply and geopolitical risks.
