YOKOWO rebounds sharply, eyeing dominance in generative AI demand and next-generation communications market

Tue Jun 9, 2026 1:12 pm JST Catalyst

YOKOWO CO.,LTD. <6800> shares rebounded sharply on Tuesday. The stock found support at its 25-day moving average despite Monday's sharp market-wide decline, reflecting robust bargain hunting on dips. On Tuesday, the stock once again attracted investment inflows. Margin buying balances remain low despite an upward trend, suggesting that real-money institutional investors are the primary buyers.

YOKOWO manufactures semiconductor test probe cards, package-stage test sockets, and connection terminals (micro pins), capturing strong demand for generative AI applications. Earnings are projected to expand rapidly; operating profit is estimated to have increased 19.00% for the fiscal year ended March 2026, followed by a 40.00% year-on-year surge to 7.00 billion yen for the fiscal year ending March 2027, which would mark the first time in six fiscal years that the firm significantly surpasses its previous record high. On June 1, YOKOWO announced a capital and business alliance with Nippon Electric Glass Co., Ltd. <5214>, laying the groundwork to establish a leading position by combining both companies' technologies in semiconductor substrates and antenna development for next-generation communication markets such as 6G.
