An update from JX Advanced Metals Corporation ( (JP:5016) ) is now available.
JX Advanced Metals Corporation will invest about 23 billion yen to expand production of sputtering targets for semiconductors at its New Hitachinaka Factory in Hitachinaka, Ibaraki Prefecture. The move responds to rapidly growing demand for advanced logic and memory chips, especially those used in AI and data‑center applications.
The investment, which falls within an existing 150 billion yen plan for the site, will lift sputtering‑target capacity to 1.6 times the fiscal 2023 level, with facilities starting operation sequentially from the second half of fiscal 2027. By leveraging technology from its Isohara Works to build more efficient lines, the company aims to secure a stable supply system and reinforce its presence in the global advanced‑semiconductor value chain, with limited impact on near‑term earnings.
The most recent analyst rating on (JP:5016) stock is a Buy with a Yen4300.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on JX Advanced Metals Corporation stock, see the JP:5016 Stock Forecast page.
