ADEKA stock gained 1.50 percent as profit growth accelerated on October 6, 2026
Published on 10/07/2026 at 00:47 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSADEKA stock (ISIN JP3114800000) was last at JPY 4,804 on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on October 6, 2026, up 1.50 percent from the prior session. The move followed a first quarter in which semiconductor materials helped lift group revenue and operating profit.
First-quarter growth accelerates
For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, ADEKA reported revenue of JPY 117.0 billion, up 15.2 percent from the prior-year quarter. Operating profit reached JPY 15.7 billion, a 42.7 percent increase, while net income attributable to owners of the parent rose 47.8 percent to JPY 10.7 billion, according to IR Analyzer in its September 7, 2026 review.
The strongest operating signal came from semiconductor materials. Sales reached JPY 10.8 billion, up 47.2 percent year over year, and operating profit rose 82.9 percent to JPY 2.6 billion, giving the business a 24.8 percent margin, according to IR Analyzer.
Forecast moves higher
ADEKA raised its fiscal 2027 revenue forecast from JPY 453.0 billion to JPY 462.0 billion and its operating-profit forecast from JPY 46.8 billion to JPY 50.0 billion. The annual dividend forecast also increased from JPY 120 to JPY 132, with the changes disclosed on August 7, 2026 and summarized by IR Analyzer.
The comparison matters because semiconductor materials generated 9.2 percent of first-quarter group revenue but 16.6 percent of operating profit. That profit contribution gives the segment greater weight in the earnings outlook than its sales share alone suggests.
Stock remains below yearly high
ADEKA's October 6 market capitalization was JPY 465.9 billion, based on the Tokyo listing. Trading volume was 258,800 shares, while the session range was JPY 4,713 to JPY 4,831.
The share price remains JPY 300 below the 52-week high of JPY 5,104 and JPY 1,527 above the 52-week low of JPY 3,277, both as of October 6, 2026. The spread shows that the latest price is closer to the upper end of the yearly range than to its low, but it has not reached the high-water mark.
Second-quarter results set for November
ADEKA's investor-relations calendar schedules the announcement of fiscal 2027 second-quarter results for November 11, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. JST, according to ADEKA. That release will test whether the strong June-quarter contribution from semiconductor materials is carrying into the next reporting period.
ADEKA was last at JPY 4,804 on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on October 6, 2026, with a market capitalization of JPY 465.9 billion and a daily gain of 1.50 percent.
