- Qualitative Information on the First Half Results
Business Performance
In the first half of the fiscal year under review, amid continued uncertainty due to geopolitical risks and
U.S. tariff policies, demand in the global semiconductor market tended to focus on AI-related investment. On the other hand, demand for capital investment remained firm in the automotive markets in China and South Korea, as well as in the domestic electronic components market. Demand for automation in general industries also remained firm globally.
In terms of our group's business performance in this environment, revenue was almost flat and exceeded expectations as a result of steadily translating new orders into revenue, compared to the corresponding period of previous fiscal year, in which order backlogs were normalized. Operating profit increased year on year due to the improvement of added value and reduction of overhead costs in the Motion Control segment.
The business performance of the first half of fiscal 2025 is as follows.
Six months ended August 31, 2024 | Six months ended August 31, 2025 | Change | |
Revenue | 261,573 million JPY | 260,195 million JPY | -0.5% |
Operating profit | 22,926 million JPY | 23,334 million JPY | +1.8% |
Profit attributable to owners of parent | 17,851 million JPY | 18,247 million JPY | +2.2% |
Average exchange rate for USD | 153.68 JPY | 146.23 JPY | -7.45 JPY |
Average exchange rate for EUR | 166.55 JPY | 166.04 JPY | -0.51 JPY |
Average exchange rate for CNY | 21.23 JPY | 20.26 JPY | -0.97 JPY |
Average exchange rate for KRW | 0.113 JPY | 0.104 JPY | -0.009 JPY |
Japan:
Demand for China in the electronic components market materialized, and demand for steel plant-related products remained strong as planned.
The Americas:
In addition to the semiconductor and automotive markets, the oil and gas related market, which was affected by the decline in crude oil prices, remained sluggish as investment plans were revised amid continued uncertainty in capital expenditure trends. On the other hand, demand for air conditioning related products, including those for data centers, remained strong.
Europe:
Although potential demand exists in the automobile market due to the economic recovery, capital investment remained sluggish.
China:
Demand for capital investment in the automobile market remained firm, and demand for automation in the general industry also remained steady. In addition, investment for global expansion in the manufacturing industry in general has been increasing, and demand remained firm.
Other Asian Countries:
While semiconductor-related demand was slow to recover, automotive-related demand remained firm in South Korea. In addition, demand for automation in the general industry remained firm in India.
Performance by Business Segment
The business of the Yaskawa Group is divided into four segments.
The performance of each business segment for the first half of fiscal 2025 is as follows.
Motion Control | Revenue | 112,837 million JPY (-5.5 % year-on-year) |
Operating profit | 12,024 million JPY (+9.2 % year-on-year) | |
The Motion Control segment consists of the AC servo & controller business and the drives business. Despite a decrease in revenue compared to the corresponding period of previous fiscal year, when the order backlog was normalized, the recovery in demand in Japan and Europe steadily led to revenue, resulting in a revenue level as expected. Operating profit increased due to further efforts to improve added value and control overhead costs. [AC servo & controller business] Despite a decrease in sales to the semiconductor market in the Americas and Asia, overall revenue increased slightly due to a large increase in sales mainly to the electronic components market in Japan. [Drives business] In the United States, sales of PV inverters and air conditioning applications remained firm, but revenue decreased year-on-year due to a decrease in sales for oil and gas applications. | ||
Robotics | Revenue | 119,204 million JPY (+6.4 % year-on-year) |
Operating profit | 10,542 million JPY (-0.5% year-on-year) | |
In the automotive market, despite the impact of revised capital investment plans in Japan and the Americas, revenue increased year on year, supported by firm demand in China and Asia. Operating profit decreased slightly due to the impact of a temporary mix of sales projects in the first half of the fiscal year under review. | ||
System Engineering | Revenue | 18,690 million JPY (+0.5% year-on-year) |
Operating profit | 1,939 million JPY (+3.7% year-on-year) | |
Although sales of electrical instrumentation systems for water supply plants and sewage treatment facilities and port cranes decreased, sales related to steel plants increased, resulting in a slight year on year increase in revenue. Operating profit increased due to improved profitability from increased sales related to steel plants and increased profits resulting from an increase in revenue. | ||
Other | Revenue | 9,462 million JPY (-17.4% year-on-year) |
Operating profit | 935 million JPY (+12.5% year-on-year) | |
Other segment consists of logistics and other businesses. Despite a decrease in revenue, operating profit improved year on year mainly due to an increase in other income. | ||
