The forecast for the fiscal year ending February 2026 (March 1, 2025 - February 28, 2026) is shown above. Amid uncertainty due to geopolitical risks and U.S. tariff policies, we have recently observed a recovery trend in demand. However, as progress through the first three quarters of fiscal 2025 remains in line with our expectations, the full-year financial forecast for the fiscal year ending February 2026 is unchanged from that announced on October 3, 2025.
The average exchange rates for the period from December 1, 2025 to February 28, 2026 are unchanged from 1USD = 145.0 JPY, 1EUR = 160.0 JPY, 1CNY = 20.00 JPY, 1KRW = 0.110 JPY, announced on April 4, 2025.
There is no change in the annual dividend forecast.

- Qualitative Information on Quarterly Results
Business Performance
In the first three quarters of the fiscal year under review, the business environment remained uncertain overall due to geopolitical risks and U.S. tariff policy. In this situation, in addition to the firm demand in the domestic electronic components market during the first half, the global semiconductor market also began to recover gradually in the latter half of the period, driven by AI-related investments. Furthermore, demand for capital investment in the automotive markets of China and South Korea remained strong, and demand for automation in the general industry also remained steady globally. On the other hand, demand for capital investment in the automotive markets of Japan, the Americas, and Europe remained sluggish, affected by tariff-related factors.
In terms of our group's business performance in this environment, revenue exceeded the results of the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year, when order backlogs were normalized, as a result of steadily translating new orders into revenue. Operating profit decreased year on year due to the impact of a mix of sales projects in the Robotics segment, while benefiting from the improvement of added value in the Motion Control segment. Both revenue and operating profit were generally in line with the Company’s expectation. Profit attributable to owners of parent decreased compared to the corresponding period of previous fiscal year when gain on transfer of shares and gain on revaluation of remaining shares following the transfer of a portion of shares of Yantai Dongxing Magnetic Materials Inc. were recorded.
The business performance of the first three quarters of fiscal 2025 is as follows.
Nine months ended November 30, 2024 | Nine months ended November 30, 2025 | Change | |
Revenue | 393,689 million JPY | 395,227 million JPY | +0.4% |
Operating profit | 34,313 million JPY | 33,195 million JPY | -3.3% |
Profit attributable to owners of parent | 45,484 million JPY | 25,544 million JPY | -43.8% |
Average exchange rate for USD | 152.19 JPY | 147.91 JPY | -4.28 JPY |
Average exchange rate for EUR | 165.08 JPY | 169.38 JPY | +4.30 JPY |
Average exchange rate for CNY | 21.12 JPY | 20.58 JPY | -0.54 JPY |
Average exchange rate for KRW | 0.112 JPY | 0.105 JPY | -0.007 JPY |
In addition to the electronic components market, where demand materialized in the first half, there is a recovery trend in the semiconductor market. On the other hand, demand for capital investment in the automotive market remained sluggish.
The Americas:
Demand related to semiconductors recovered gradually, and demand for air-conditioning applications, including those for data centers, remained firm. In contrast, demand for capital investment in the oil and gas related market was sluggish due to the decline in crude oil prices. However, we have secured large-scale
orders that are expected to contribute to performance in the next fiscal year and beyond. Europe:
A recovery trend was observed in the general industry, and demand for automation remained firm. On the other hand, capital investment remained sluggish in the automotive market although potential demand exists.
China:
In addition to an increase in semiconductor-related demand, demand for automation in both the automotive market and general industry remained steady.
Other Asian Countries:
Semiconductor-related demand in South Korea and Taiwan has shown a recovery trend, and demand for automation in South Korea’s automotive market and in general industry across ASEAN has remained steady.
Performance by Business Segment
The business of the Yaskawa Group is divided into four segments.
The performance of each business segment for the first three quarters of fiscal 2025 is as follows.
Motion Control | Revenue | 170,853 million JPY (-4.2 % year-on-year) |
Operating profit | 16,379 million JPY (+2.4 % year-on-year) | |
The Motion Control segment consists of the AC servo & controller business and the drives business. Although revenue decreased compared to the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year, when the order backlogs were normalized, revenue of AC servo drives in Japan and AC drives in the U.S. remained strong, resulting in a revenue level of the segment almost as expected. Operating profit increased due to 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 due to sluggish demand in the first half, overall revenue increased slightly because of an increase in sales mainly to the electronic components market in Japan. [Drives business] In the United States, sales of PV inverters and for air conditioning applications remained firm, while sales for oil and gas applications decreased. In addition to these, due to the impact of efforts to normalize order backlogs during the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year, revenue decreased. Furthermore, we have secured large-scale orders for oil and gas applications that are expected to contribute to future performance. | ||
Robotics | Revenue | 183,038 million JPY (+7.3% year-on-year) |
Operating profit | 15,484 million JPY (-3.9% year-on-year) | |
In the automotive market, although capital investment in Japan, the Americas, and Europe remained sluggish due to the impact of tariffs, revenue was supported by large-scale projects in China and South Korea. In addition, revenue increased year-on-year by capturing global demand for capital investment in the general industry. Operating profit, however, decreased due to the impact of a mix of sales projects. Both revenue and operating profit were almost in line with expectations. | ||
System Engineering | Revenue | 26,815 million JPY (-3.5% year-on-year) |
Operating profit | 2,730 million JPY (-9.6% year-on-year) | |
Sales of core products, including those for steel plants, port cranes, and social systems, decreased slightly, resulting in a decrease in revenue compared to the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year. Operating profit also decreased, primarily due to the impact of a decline in profit resulting from a decrease in revenue. However, both revenue and operating profit were in line with expectations. | ||
Other | Revenue | 14,519 million JPY (-14.9% year-on-year) |
Operating profit | 1,391 million JPY (+34.8% year-on-year) | |
Other segment consists of logistics and other businesses. Despite a decrease in revenue, operating profit increased year on year mainly due to an increase in other income. | ||
