Ibiden Profits Surge 25% on Strong Nine-Month Revenue Growth

Revenue for the period reached ¥298.62 billion, up from ¥270.34 billion during the same timeframe last year. This growth highlights the company's solid position within the global electronics supply chain, particularly as demand for high-end substrates remains a key driver for the firm's top-line performance.

Operating profit climbed to ¥44.53 billion, a substantial increase over the ¥34.86 billion recorded previously. Pretax profit followed a similar upward trajectory, reaching ¥43.63 billion, suggesting that the company successfully managed operational costs while scaling its output through December 31.
