Business Details
The largest segment of Oiles Corporation, which manufactures and sells Oilless Bearings and other products. Operated as two segments: General Industrial Bearings and Automotive Bearings. Supplies products to domestic and overseas general industrial machinery (semiconductor manufacturing equipment, renewable energy, etc.) and automobiles (including EV/NEV applications). Operates globally with manufacturing and sales bases in North America, Europe, China, Southeast Asia, and India. In FY2026 (ending March 2026), combined sales of both segments totaled ¥50,170 million, accounting for 72.7% of consolidated net sales.
Recent Overview
General Industrial Bearings saw a sharp profit increase driven by semiconductor and renewable energy demand, while Automotive Bearings posted a slight increase led by NEV and India
In FY2026 (ending March 2026), General Industrial Bearings benefited from strong orders for semiconductor-related equipment (Japan and China) and renewable energy applications, with sales of ¥15,949 million (up 7.5% year on year) and segment profit of ¥1,668 million (up 47.2% year on year), a substantial profit increase. Automotive Bearings, amid continued uncertainty in trade policy, benefited from growth in NEV-related sales in China and the launch of new projects in India, posting sales of ¥34,221 million (up 1.2% year on year) and segment profit of ¥3,394 million (up 0.9% year on year), a modest increase. Forecasts for FY2027 (ending March 2027) call for General Industrial Bearings sales of ¥16,300 million and operating profit of ¥1,400 million, and Automotive Bearings sales of ¥36,600 million and operating profit of ¥4,050 million.
Key Products
Growth Drivers
- Expanding demand for semiconductor manufacturing equipment applications (solid trends in Japan and China markets)
- Strong order trends in the renewable energy field and expectations for further growth ahead
- Increase in sales for New Energy Vehicles (NEV) in China
- Contribution to performance from growth in the Indian market and the launch of new projects
- Acquisition of new non-Japanese automaker customers and expansion of adoption
- Promotion of product development and investment to address diversifying powertrain needs
Risks
- Uncertainty over trade policy (tariffs, trade friction) affecting the automotive market
- Demand fluctuations due to the slowdown of the Chinese economy and geopolitical risks
- Changes in powertrain demand structure due to uncertainty over EV adoption trends
- Profit pressure from rising raw material costs, energy prices, and labor costs
- Sharp fluctuations in foreign exchange rates (earnings forecast assumption: ¥154 to the US dollar)
- Impact of the situation in the Middle East on material procurement and energy costs
