YASKAWA Electric Corp. <6506> announced its full-year earnings guidance for the fiscal year ending February 2027 after the market close on the 10th, alongside the release of its consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ended February 2026. The company projects net sales of \580.0 billion (up 7.0% YoY) and net income of \47.0 billion (up 33.4% YoY). The annual dividend is forecast at \72 per share, comprising a \36 interim dividend and a \36 year-end dividend (compared to \68 in the previous fiscal year). The positive outlook reflects strong order momentum, particularly in the AI and semiconductor-related sectors.

Orders received in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended February 2026 (December 2025 to February 2026) increased 20% YoY and 10% QoQ. The company's foreign exchange assumptions are \145 to the U.S. dollar, \170 to the euro, and \20.50 to the Chinese yuan. For the fiscal year ended February 2026, YASKAWA Electric reported net sales of \542.122 billion (up 0.8% YoY) and net income of \35.24 billion (down 38.2% YoY). While the robotics segment posted higher sales, profits were pressured by the impact of large-scale projects. The overall decline in net income was primarily attributed to the absence of one-time gains recorded in the previous fiscal year from the partial sale of shares in Yantai Dongxing Magnetic Materials and the subsequent revaluation of remaining shares.
