Business Details
Manufactures and sells Press Dies and Surface Grinding Machines, among other products. Primarily handled domestically by Mitsui High-tec, Inc. (the Company), with sales also conducted through subsidiaries in the Asia region. In addition to internally supplying Dies to the Electronic Components and Electrical Equipment Components businesses, the segment also sells to external customers. Positioned as a foundational business that leverages ultra-precision processing technology to support the competitiveness of other segments.
Recent Overview
Sales increased 19.2% year on year due to higher orders for Dies, but operating profit fell 70.5% due to soaring raw material prices
In the first quarter of FY2027 (ending January 2027) (February to April 2026), segment sales (including internal transfers) increased to ¥3,067 million (up 19.2% year on year) due to increased orders for Dies. On the other hand, soaring raw material prices squeezed profitability, and segment operating profit fell sharply to ¥7 million (down 70.5% year on year). Sales to external customers were ¥859 million, slightly below the ¥874 million recorded in the same period of the prior year, with the main driver of the sales increase being the expansion of inter-segment internal transfer sales (from ¥1,699 million to ¥2,208 million).
Key Products
Growth Drivers
- Expansion of internal transfer sales due to increased orders for Dies (up from ¥1,699 million to ¥2,208 million year on year)
- Expansion of internal demand through strengthened collaboration with the Electrical Equipment Components segment (demand for Dies used in manufacturing motor cores for electrified vehicles)
- Medium- to long-term expansion of demand for Dies required for motor core manufacturing for the electrified vehicle market
- Strengthening of technical proposal sales that materialize latent customer needs
Risks
- Profit pressure from soaring raw material prices (current quarter operating profit of ¥7 million, down 70.5% year on year)
- Sluggish sales to external customers (¥859 million, below ¥874 million in the same period of the prior year)
- Risk of fluctuation in internal demand from the Electrical Equipment Components segment due to slowing growth in the electrified vehicle market
- Risk of deteriorating profitability if raw material cost increases continue
