SWCC upgrades full-year outlook, raises dividend on strong H1 performance

SWCC Corporation reported strong consolidated financial results for the six months ended September 30, 2025, with net sales increasing by 9.8% year-on-year to 128,860 million yen and operating profit rising by 11.9% to 11,651 million yen. Profit attributable to owners of parent saw a substantial 104.1% increase to 7,305 million yen. This robust H1 performance, particularly from the Power Infrastructure and Communication and Components Businesses, led the company to upwardly revise its full-year forecast for March 31, 2026. The revised forecast projects net sales of 270,000 million yen, operating profit of 26,000 million yen, and profit attributable to owners of parent of 16,000 million yen.

The company also announced an increase in its annual dividend forecast to 200 yen, with an interim dividend of 90 yen and a year-end dividend of 110 yen. This dividend increase reflects the strong financial performance and commitment to shareholder returns. Strategically, SWCC is accelerating its DX management for value creation and integrating production sites to enhance efficiency and growth in its heater wire and semiconductor probe businesses, transferring some Sendai production to TOTOKU's Ueda and Maruko sites, expecting approximately 200 million yen in consolidation and integration effects.
