Full recordFilings, disclosures and news, newest first
  1. FY2026-H1RestatedAnnual report

    「The semiconductor market, our Group's principal business area, remained characterized by delayed recovery in demand for smartphones, automobiles and other applications, while demand for advanced semiconductors, including image-processing semiconductors and high-bandwidth memory (HBM) for generative AI, served as a driver.」

    The disclosure continues to describe a delayed recovery in demand in non-memory areas, including automotive applications. No standalone sales figures or new expansion milestones were provided for products for automotive microcontrollers.
  2. FY2025-H1Continued weakness in automotive demandAnnual report

    「The semiconductor market, our Group's principal business area, presented mixed conditions, with demand for generative AI expanding while demand for smartphones and automobiles remained weak.」

    Demand for automotive semiconductors was described as remaining weak. No new individual expansion results or milestones were provided for advanced probe cards for automotive microcontrollers.
  3. FY2024-Q1MitigatedAnnual report

    「Although supply conditions for automotive semiconductors were moving toward normalization, the market contracted amid the unresolved risk of a global economic recession, as demand for semiconductors used in smartphones, PCs and data centers weakened. Production adjustments by semiconductor manufacturers also continued.」

    The company stated that the supply system for automotive semiconductors was moving toward normalization, indicating some easing from the supply tightness through the previous fiscal year. However, no completion of the transition to stable supply or standalone expansion results for products for automotive microcontrollers was disclosed.
  4. FY2023-Q3Continued supply constraints for automotive applicationsAnnual report

    「In the semiconductor market, which is a key business area for the Group, the supply system for automotive semiconductors was gradually moving toward normalization, but stable supply had not yet been achieved and tightness persisted.」

    Although the supply system for automotive semiconductors was moving toward normalization, stable supply had not yet been achieved and tightness continued. No individual sales figures or new expansion milestones were provided for products for automotive microcontrollers.
  5. FY2023-Q1Continued supply-demand tightness for automotive applicationsAnnual report

    「In the semiconductor market, which is a key business area for the Group, supply and demand for automotive applications remained tight, while demand for smartphones and PCs showed signs of slowing. Demand trends therefore varied by end product.」

    The disclosure indicates that supply and demand for automotive semiconductors remained tight. No individual sales figures or new expansion milestones were provided for advanced probe cards for automotive microcontrollers.
  6. FY2019RestatedAnnual report

    「Logic IC applications remained weak due to the delayed recovery in automotive semiconductors.」

    Logic IC applications, primarily for automotive semiconductors, continued to face weak conditions due to the delayed recovery.
  7. FY2019-Q3Delayed recovery in automotive semiconductorsAnnual report

    「Sales to the logic IC market remained weak because recovery in automotive semiconductor applications was delayed, but」

    Logic IC applications, primarily for automotive semiconductors, which had previously performed well, remained weak due to the delayed recovery. No new progress in expanding automotive applications was reported.
  8. FY2019-Q2RestatedAnnual report

    「Although recovery in demand for logic ICs, mainly for automotive semiconductors, and for DRAM remained weak,」

    The weak recovery in demand for logic ICs for automotive semiconductors has continued. No new progress in expanding sales of automotive microcontrollers or automotive semiconductors was disclosed.
  9. FY2019-Q1Weak growth in logic ICs for automotive semiconductorsAnnual report

    「Although sales to the logic IC market, mainly for automotive semiconductors, which had performed well in the previous year, struggled to grow,」

    Logic ICs for automotive semiconductors, which had previously performed well, showed weak growth. No new progress in expanding automotive sales was disclosed.
  10. FY2018AdvancedAnnual report

    「Sales of logic ICs also increased, primarily for automotive semiconductors. As a result, revenue was ¥14,147 million, up 15.9% from the previous consolidated fiscal year, and segment profit was ¥1,321 million, up 54.3%.」

    The company reported sales growth in the expanded-sales targets centred on automotive semiconductors. For the semiconductor test components business as a whole, revenue increased 15.9% and segment profit increased 54.3%.
  11. FY2018-Q3RestatedAnnual report

    「Products for logic ICs performed steadily, mainly for automotive semiconductors.」

    The company stated that the expanded-sales targets centred on automotive semiconductors remained firm, but did not provide standalone revenue or any new milestone for automotive semiconductors.
  12. FY2018-Q2AdvancedAnnual report

    「Against this business backdrop, our group advanced sales expansion, mainly for memory ICs and automotive semiconductors. As a result, sales exceeded the same period of the previous year.」

    The company described progress in expanding sales while changing the target wording from automotive microcontrollers to automotive semiconductors. Revenue for the semiconductor test components business increased 15.9% year on year.
  13. FY2018-Q1First statedAnnual report

    「The group pursued expanded sales, primarily for memory semiconductors and automotive microcontrollers. As a result, revenue exceeded that of the same quarter of the previous year. Revenue for the cumulative consolidated period through the first quarter was ¥3,017 million, up 37.1% year on year, while segment profit was ¥134 million, up 82.1%.」

    Automotive microcontrollers were identified for expanded sales for the first time. Although revenue from automotive microcontrollers alone was not disclosed, the semiconductor test components business as a whole posted higher revenue and profit.
