3 Sales increased YoY and QoQ across all market segments, marking a strong start to FY2026. While the impact of higher material costs persisted, profitability improved slightly as a result of higher shipment volumes. In the industrial segment, sales reached a new record high, driven by strong demand from Factory Automation (FA) applications. Sales to smartphone and consumer/mobile markets remained solid overall despite variations across regions and applications. In addition, sales to automotive/mobility-related applications continued to grow. As a result, net sales increased 26.8% year-on-year, operating profit rose 35.7%, and the operating profit ratio improved to 21.5%. Orders received totaled JPY 71.06 billion, up 36.6% from the same period of the previous year.Summary of the business results (FY2026.1Q From April, 2026 to June, 2026)QoQ(2026.1Q/2025.4Q)YoY(2026.1Q/2025.1Q)FY2026.1Q2026.Apr-JunFY2025.4Q2026.Jan-MarFY2025.1Q2025.Apr-Jun+12.4%+36.6%710.6 632.4520.1Orders+13.5%+26.8%620.8 547.2489.7Sales+27.1%+35.6%133.4104.998.3Operatingprofit+2.3pt+1.4pt21.5%19.2%20.1%Operatingprofit ratio(Yen in hundred millions)
