For the full fiscal year, the company now projects revenue of JPY 5.85bn versus JPY 5.8bn previously, with operating profit climbing to JPY 500M from JPY 350M—a 42.9% increase. Ordinary income (keijo rieki), a Japan-specific metric encompassing operating profit plus non-operating items, is forecast at JPY 535M, up 39.0% from JPY 385M. Net profit is expected to reach JPY 507M, representing a 42.8% gain from the prior JPY 355M estimate, with earnings per share rising to JPY 64.09 from JPY 44.88.

Management attributed the revision to stronger-than-anticipated performance in the first quarter, particularly in semiconductor and electronic components for AI applications. New prototype development contracts in advanced device and next-generation technology sectors have expanded beyond initial expectations, while high-value-added product growth is offsetting modest revenue increases.

The upward revision signals that GEOMATEC’s strategic pivot toward high-margin AI-related manufacturing and prototyping services is gaining traction. The disproportionate profit growth relative to revenue expansion—operating profit up 42.9% on just 0.9% revenue growth—underscores improving product mix and operational leverage. Investors should monitor whether the company can sustain this momentum as AI-driven semiconductor demand evolves.
