Hedge funds cut NFLX, keep big bets on MSFT, AMZN, add NVDA
Investing.com -- Micronics Japan reported second-quarter probe card sales of ¥18.5 billion for the fiscal year ending December 2025, up from ¥13.7 billion in the first quarter. Operating profit rose to ¥5.7 billion from ¥3.7 billion in the previous quarter.
Despite the quarterly growth in sales and profit, which was primarily driven by memory probe cards, orders fell to ¥11 billion from ¥18.9 billion after some customers adjusted their order policies. The company noted that customer inquiries and production remained unaffected by these policy changes.
For the first half of fiscal 2025, Micronics Japan recorded sales of ¥33.1 billion, exceeding its guidance of ¥31.6 billion. Operating profit reached ¥7.57 billion, slightly below the guidance of ¥7.7 billion. The company attributed these variances to shipments being brought forward from the third quarter and changes in product mix.
Looking ahead, Micronics Japan provided guidance for the third quarter, projecting sales of ¥16.9 billion and operating profit of ¥3.53 billion. For the fourth quarter, the company expects sales of ¥18.9 billion and operating profit of ¥2.7 billion. The anticipated decline in fourth-quarter profit is due to equipment failures and year-end bonus payments.
