Fiscal year ending March 2027 · Full yearPrevious forecast published 27 April 2026The bar length represents the relative magnitude of change, based on the item that changed the most in this document. The percentage change shown by the dotted line is calculated from the two reported figures because the company did not provide the rate.
In the semiconductor market during calendar year 2026, AI-related semiconductors are expected to drive growth, bringing the market to a scale exceeding US$1 trillion. The semiconductor tester market is also expected to reach its largest-ever scale, against a backdrop of increased production volumes and further complexity of AI-related semiconductors. In particular, demand for testing AI semiconductors used for inference is expected to significantly exceed the assumptions as of April 2026. The revision also reflects performance progress during the first quarter of the fiscal year.

The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The semiconductor tester market is expected to reach its largest-ever scale, driven by growth in AI-related semiconductors, and demand for testing AI semiconductors used for inference is expected to significantly exceed the assumptions as of April 2026. The revision also reflects performance progress during the first quarter of the fiscal year.
