- Revenue rose sharply in the six months ended September 30, 2026, while operating profit more than doubled year over year.
- Fujikura raised its full-year revenue forecast but lowered its operating-profit target.
- The company maintained its forecast for full-year profit attributable to owners of the parent.
Fujikura reported a sharp increase in first-half earnings on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, as higher revenue lifted profitability across the Japanese engineering group. RTTNews said the figures covered the six months ended September 30, 2026.
Revenue increased 55.2 percent year over year to 867.433 billion Japanese yen from 558.994 billion yen. Operating profit climbed 160.6 percent to 235.013 billion yen from 90.171 billion yen, while profit attributable to owners of the parent rose 168.5 percent to 180.289 billion yen from 67.147 billion yen.
Revenue outlook moves higher
Fujikura raised its full-year revenue outlook to 1.768 trillion Japanese yen from 1.755 trillion yen previously. The revised target implies growth of 49.5 percent from the prior year and points to continued momentum in the company's engineering activities.
The outlook was more cautious on profitability. Fujikura lowered its full-year operating-profit forecast to 429 billion yen from 432 billion yen, although the revised target still represents growth of 127.3 percent from the previous year. The forecast for profit attributable to owners of the parent remained at 326 billion yen, equivalent to an expected increase of 107.4 percent.
For investors, the combination of higher sales expectations and a slightly lower operating-profit target puts execution and margin development at the center of the outlook. Strong first-half growth supports the expansion case, while the reduced operating-profit target leaves less room for further upside without sustained profitability.
