Rating:68Neutral
Price Target:
¥62,370.00
▲(38.72% Upside)
Action:Downgraded
Date:05/15/26
The score is primarily driven by strong technical momentum and a reasonable valuation, offset by weaker cash-flow consistency and limited transparency from missing 2026 financial ratios, which raise uncertainty about earnings quality and financial resilience.
Positive Factors
Consistent revenue growth
Furukawa delivered sustained top-line expansion, culminating in a sharp step-up to ~¥1.31T in 2026. Durable revenue growth across telecom, energy and automotive end markets supports scale, higher capacity utilization and longer-term product adoption trends that matter over months.
Negative Factors
Inconsistent cash generation
Operating cash flow weakened to ~¥28B in 2026 despite higher earnings and free cash flow turned negative (~-¥18B). Historical OCF volatility and prior years of negative FCF imply working-capital swings or heavy capex, raising risk that earnings may not reliably convert to cash.
