Japan (two companies): April - March / Overseas (10 companies): January - December
Surface finishing materials business
Both sales and segment profit increased year-over-year, driven by demand expansion for plating chemicals for packages, electronic devices related to high-speed communication, and semiconductor-related materials.
Surface finishing machinery business
Demand continued to rise with the increase of surface finishing equipment for IGBT semiconductors and for packages, and these fields are expected to increase in the future as well. Both sales and segment profit decreased year-over-year, heavily affected by a shortage of various electronic components and materials due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This trend is expected to continue toward the next fiscal year.
Plating job business
Plating job operations in Taiwan continued to show solid performance with the focus on surface finishing of packages. In Thailand and Indonesia, the number of automobile production is affected by challenging procurement of various parts due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and plating job operations for plastics also continued to face challenging business conditions. In addition, a paradigm shift in driving force from internal-combustion engine to electric motor is rapidly taking place in the automobile industry. Both sales and segment profit of the plating job business as a whole increased year-over-year, with strong sales in surface finishing of packages.
