Socionext—shares fell sharply again, with the company posting an operating loss in the first quarter.
The stock continued to decline sharply. The company reported its first-quarter earnings the previous day, posting an operating loss of JPY 660 million, significantly missing the market expectation of approximately JPY 20 billion in profit. The pullback from the concentration of product sales in the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal year appears to have been larger than anticipated, and R&D and other costs have also increased. The company maintained its full-year operating profit forecast at JPY 14 billion, representing a 13.3% year-over-year increase. It is also noted that approximately JPY 10 billion in revenue recognition has shifted into the second quarter, leading to limited downside after the initial sell-off.
