TOWA seen as a stock to watch on sharp profit recovery forecast and higher dividend

Fri Jun 12, 2026 10:00 am JST Catalyst

TOWA CORPORATION <6315> shares are expected to see steady gains, supported by its 200-day moving average and a favorable earnings outlook. The semiconductor manufacturing equipment maker boasts a world-class track record in molding equipment used to encapsulate chips in resin. TOWA will launch a new model in August designed to cut mass production costs and improve productivity, fueling sales expansion expectations.

Earnings are on track to recover. In the fiscal year ended March 2026, sales grew on strong demand from AI and data center clients, but operating profit fell 22% year-on-year to 6.917 billion yen due to an unfavorable product mix and temporary costs. For the year ending March 2027, TOWA expects continued revenue growth, with operating profit projected to rise 48% year-on-year to 10.24 billion yen. The dividend forecast was also raised by 4 yen to 24 yen.
