Macnica Lifts Sales Outlook on AI Chip Demand but Trims Profit Forecast

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

MACNICA HOLDINGS INC. ( (JP:3132) ) just unveiled an update.

For the third quarter of fiscal 2025, Macnica Holdings reported consolidated revenue growth led by its Semiconductor Business, which benefitted from strong AI-related demand and newly acquired overseas business, although segment profits were pressured by rapid appreciation of the yen and New Taiwan dollar earlier in the fiscal year. The Cybersecurity Business continued to perform solidly in both domestic and international markets, while the CPS Solutions Business saw higher SG&A costs following the consolidation of Navya Mobility SAS from the previous year and weaker-than-expected autonomous bus sales; as a result, Macnica revised up its full-year net sales forecast on stronger overseas semiconductor demand but cut its operating and ordinary profit outlook, leaving net profit guidance unchanged due to anticipated gains from the sale of investment securities, a move that underscores shifting growth drivers and mixed profitability trends across its portfolio businesses.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:3132) stock is a Hold with a Yen2702.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on MACNICA HOLDINGS INC. stock, see the JP:3132 Stock Forecast page.
