V Technology <7717> extended gains after the company projected a sharp profit rise for the fiscal year ending March 2027. Following the market close on May 12, the firm forecast revenue of 60 billion yen (up 13.2% year-on-year), operating profit of 5.5 billion yen (up 45.9%), and net profit of 3 billion yen (up 30.4%), drawing strong investor interest.

In the semiconductor and photomask segment, the rollout of DI exposure equipment for advanced packaging is expected to drive growth, while photomask operations are projected to recover from a prior-year trough. Although FPD manufacturing equipment remains under pressure, inspection equipment is expected to remain solid and underpin earnings.

For the fiscal year ended March 2026, V Technology reported revenue of 52,992 million yen (up 14.7% year-on-year), with operating profit jumping 2.1 times to 3,768 million yen and net profit rising 2.9 times to 2,301 million yen.
