Full-Year Guidance
Management has provided a clear outlook for the full fiscal year (FY2026).
| Metric | Full-Year Forecast | YoY Change |
|---|---|---|
| Revenue | JPY 84.0bn | +9.5% |
| Operating Profit | JPY 15.4bn | +7.8% |
| Ordinary Income | JPY 17,200M | +3.4% |
| Net Profit | JPY 10,000M | +7.6% |
The full-year forecast shows a strong commitment to growth, with the Revenue target of JPY 84.0bn (+9.5% YoY) being the most aggressive growth projection relative to other profit lines. This suggests management is highly confident in capturing increased global demand for its specialized processing services throughout FY2026.
What to Watch
Investors should monitor two key areas moving forward. First, while Q2 showed strong momentum, the divergence between the revenue growth rate (+9.5% full-year forecast) and the operating profit growth rate (+7.8% full-year forecast) warrants attention; understanding the margin drivers behind this projection is crucial. Second, given the sector’s cyclical nature, monitoring global semiconductor capital expenditure trends and geopolitical stability in key manufacturing hubs will be vital indicators of future demand for wafer processing services.
