Automotive and data centers and networks remain focus areas. Custom SoC projects using 7nm and 5nm technologies and their transition to mass production continue to contribute to product revenue. - FY2024-Q1RestatedAnnual report
「Under these conditions, the group has continued to acquire custom SoC projects in focus areas such as data centers and networks and automotive applications using processes of 7nm and below since the fiscal year ended March 2020. Some of these projects have completed development and moved into mass production, contributing to higher revenue, particularly product revenue from advanced technologies.」
The group continues to acquire custom SoC projects using 7nm-and-below processes in data centers and networks, automotive and other focus areas, with completed development and the move to mass production contributing to revenue. - FY2023AdvancedAnnual report
「As a result, projects using advanced process nodes of 7nm and below increased from 1% of NRE revenue in the fiscal year ended March 2018 to 59% in the fiscal year ended March 2023. In addition to the shift in the business model, the focus business areas underwent a major change from consumer-oriented fields such as televisions to advanced growth areas such as automotive, data centers and networks, and smart devices. As a result, these advanced areas increased from 50% of NRE revenue in the fiscal year ended March 2018 to 76% in the fiscal year ended March 2023.」
The shift toward focus areas is supported by measurable progress: projects using advanced processes accounted for 59% of NRE revenue, while advanced fields accounted for 76%. - FY2023-Q3ReframedAnnual report
「Under these conditions, since fiscal 2019 the group has acquired custom SoC projects in focus areas such as data centers and networks and automotive applications using process technologies of 7nm and below.」
The focus-area description has been reorganized from 5G networks and smart devices to primarily data centers and networks and automotive applications. The disclosure explicitly refers to custom SoC projects using 7nm-and-below processes acquired since fiscal 2019. - FY2023-Q2First statedAnnual report
「Under these conditions, in our focus areas of 5G networks, automotive and smart devices, some projects using process technologies of 7nm and below acquired since fiscal 2019 completed development and entered mass production earlier than anticipated. Together with the impact of yen depreciation, this resulted in product revenue of ¥66,325 million for the cumulative second quarter of the current consolidated fiscal period.」
5G networks, automotive and smart devices are explicitly identified as focus areas.
