Kyocera’s first-quarter results set new records for the period, with sales up 10% year on year and operating profit rising 2.6 times. In response, the company raised its fiscal 2026 (ending March 2027) guidance, increasing its sales forecast by 7% and its operating profit forecast by 23%.
Manufacturers of automotive components, such as Kyocera, should benefit from the secular trend toward increased semiconductor content in vehicles.
Kyocera sells a disparate array of products, in our view, with little to show in the way of market leadership.
