TOWA Corporation reported a significant downturn for the six months ending September 30, 2025, with net sales falling 14.4% to 23,449 million yen and operating profit dropping 52.6% to 2,493 million yen.
The primary semiconductor manufacturing equipment segment drove the decline, recording a 14.7% drop in net sales and a 53.6% decrease in operating profit.
Performance was negatively impacted by weak demand in consumer and memory semiconductor markets alongside the effects of international tariff policies.
The company maintained its full-year forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, projecting net sales of 56,000 million yen and an operating profit of 9,800 million yen.
Despite overall losses, the medical device business grew by 8.4% to 1,224 million yen, while the laser processing machine business reported an operating loss of 82 million yen.
A gradual recovery in capital investment during the second quarter, particularly in China and Taiwan, helped the company's profits exceed initial internal expectations.
TOWA Corporation maintains a stable financial position with total assets of 91,013 million yen and an equity-to-asset ratio of 70.1%.
