  • Profit grew much faster: operating income went from ¥47B to ¥63.9B (+35.8%), and net income from ¥33.4B to ¥72.5B (+117.4%).

What drove the change

  • Higher sales of optical fiber cable for data centers and of wire harnesses for cars, plus a jump in copper prices, lifted revenue
  • Better productivity, price revisions and a richer mix of high-value products raised operating income
  • Net income also got a boost from one-off gains on selling investment securities and on changing the pension plan; operating cash flow fell because receivables and inventory grew

Things to watch

  • Sudden swings in the prices of copper, aluminum, plastics and fuel can hit both costs and sales
  • Tariff and economic-security policy changes, or supply chains cut by conflicts, could force changes to its global production setup
  • A stronger yen shrinks the profits of overseas subsidiaries once converted into yen
