On 28 October 2026, Socionext simultaneously announced an upward revision to its full-year outlook and its interim results. The share price fell from the following day onward, while trading volume increased from the previous day.
The results announced on 28 October showed revenue of ¥99.42 billion, up 14.0% from the same period a year earlier, supported by contributions from NRE for data centers. However, operating income fell 55.7% to ¥1.668 billion due in part to higher research and development expenses. Ordinary income was ¥2.24 billion, while interim net income attributable to owners of the parent was ¥1.526 billion.
In addition to the upward revision to the full-year outlook announced on the same day, trading volume expanded sharply to 13.32 million shares on 29 October from the previous day, and the share price fell from ¥1,971.5 on 28 October to ¥1,824 on 30 October.
Market reaction emerged immediately after the earnings announcement. Performance over the past 12 quarters has been trending downward, with declining net profit margins and weak EPS cited as concerns. Progress on large-scale deals, expansion of mass production and growth in NRE revenue are expected to drive earnings growth, while the impact of the cost structure and development investment requires attention.
