In the first quarter of 2025, Renesas experienced a significant decline in financial performance compared to the previous year. The company’s consolidated revenue fell by 12.2% to 308.8 billion yen, with operating profit plummeting by 72.3% to 21.5 billion yen.

Despite these challenges, the company’s non-GAAP gross margin remained stable at 56.7%, although the operating margin decreased by 5.1 percentage points to 27.1%. The company also reported a decrease in total assets and equity, primarily due to foreign exchange fluctuations and repayments of borrowings.
Looking ahead, Renesas management remains cautious, acknowledging the uncertainties in the market. The company is focused on navigating these challenges while continuing to deliver innovative semiconductor solutions that support a smarter and more sustainable future. Investors and stakeholders will be keenly observing how Renesas adapts its strategies to address the current market dynamics.
