H1 revenue ¥10,908 億円 (¥1.09 trillion), a company record, up 20.8% YoY and 14.2% excluding FX; resin multilayer substrates and RF modules fell on smartphones but components grew broadly in data center and mobility. Operating profit ¥2,459 億円, also a record, up 48.9% YoY (+30.7% ex-FX), as higher utilization and yen weakness outweighed higher fixed costs and price erosion.
Grey header bar, two large red headline figures each followed by two explanatory bullets
Full-year forecast raised to revenue ¥22,600 億円 (+7.1%, +¥1,500 億円 vs the July forecast) and operating profit ¥5,200 億円 (+20.9%, +¥900 億円), both records. Capex raised by ¥150 億円 to ¥2,700 億円, mainly for devices and modules. Annual dividend unchanged and the ¥1,500 億円 share buyback proceeds as planned.
Four stacked blocks (revenue, operating profit, capex, shareholder returns), each a red label plus bullets

Full-width light grey panel with a single centered two-line statement
Maps AI's progression (LLM, AI agents, AGI, ASI) against three domains: edge devices (smart glasses, smart rings, 6G, bioelectronics/implantables), IT infrastructure (AI data centers needing vertical power delivery and semiconductor packages, optical communications, distributed computing) and mobility (AD/ADAS, drones, industrial robots, humanoids, space). Murata's enduring value: small size, high capacitance, high efficiency, high density, high reliability and thermal management. The footer page number reads 4 although it is the sixth page.
Matrix with an AI-evolution arrow across the top, three purple-labelled rows on the left and photo tiles with captioned technology requirements
Murata will invest about ¥1 trillion over 2026-2030 and aims to more than double MLCC sales from ¥0.9 trillion in FY2025. About ¥3,500 億円 goes to buildings (three new plants in Japan plus two overseas sites) and about ¥6,500 億円 to equipment. The map shows new plants at Izumo/Yasugi (timing undecided), Okayama (FY2028 plant; FY2030 MLCC sheet and raw-material plant), Thailand (FY2030), and Philippines infrastructure (FY2027), alongside existing sites in Wuxi, Fukui, Shenzhen, India and Singapore. High-value MLCCs (small, high capacitance, heat and voltage resistant) for IT infrastructure, mobility, edge devices and humanoids drive growth.

Three summary bullets above a wide financial table with H1 FY2025, Q1/Q2/H1 FY2026 (red outline), YoY, FX effect and QoQ columns
Company-wide orders hit a record despite yen appreciation reducing the value of foreign-currency backlog, led by data center and communications demand. Q2 FY2026: sales ¥5,885 億円, orders ¥7,534 億円, backlog ¥7,827 億円, book-to-bill 1.28 (1.34 in Q1). Murata flags rising long-lead orders and possible pull-ins in some applications. Book-to-bill ratios FY23 Q2 to FY26 Q2 are listed; period-end rates ¥148.89 (Sep 2025), ¥159.93 (Mar 2026), ¥157.33 (Sep 2026).

Single wide table with H1 FY2025, Q1/Q2/H1 FY2026 (red outline), YoY and QoQ columns
Components revenue rose 29.7% to ¥7,451 億円 and operating profit 62.1% to ¥2,556 億円 (margin 34.3% vs 27.5%). MLCC grew in servers, distributors and mobility; inductors and EMI filters grew in mobility and servers. Price erosion, raw-material cost increases and higher fixed costs were outweighed by utilization gains and yen weakness.
Left grid of segment rows with commentary and a pink operating-profit box; right side stacked revenue bars and pink profit bars for the two periods
Devices & Modules revenue rose 3.4% to ¥3,409 億円, but operating profit swung from ¥103 億円 (3.1%) to a loss of ¥48 億円 (-1.4%). RF modules fell on smartphones and PCs; resin multilayer substrates and SAW filters fell on smartphones; power modules grew on data centers; lithium-ion batteries fell on power tools and the micro primary battery divestiture; sensors grew on mobility. Price cuts, material costs and a project-drop loss in power modules hurt profit; one-off costs are included.

Common questions about this slide and the underlying presentation content.
The original is a Japanese-language results briefing deck titled 2026年度 第2四半期決算説明会資料 (FY2026 Q2 earnings briefing materials), published by Murata Manufacturing on TDnet, the Tokyo Stock Exchange's timely-disclosure system, on October 30, 2026. This page provides an English page-by-page summary; the downloadable PDF and PPTX keep the original Japanese text.
Murata's fiscal year runs April to March, so FY2026 (2026年度) covers April 2026 to March 2027. The first half (H1) is April to September 2026, and Q2 is July to September 2026.
Revenue was ¥10,908 億円 (about ¥1.09 trillion), up 20.8% year on year, and operating profit was ¥2,459 億円 (about ¥246 billion), up 48.9%, both company records. Net profit attributable to owners was ¥1,862 億円. Q2 alone delivered ¥5,885 億円 revenue and a 25.1% operating margin.
The October forecast calls for revenue of ¥22,600 億円 (up ¥1,500 億円 from July) and operating profit of ¥5,200 億円 (up ¥900 億円), with net profit of ¥3,960 億円 and ROIC of 16.6%. Capex was raised to ¥2,700 億円, the dividend forecast was kept, and the ¥1,500 億円 buyback continues.
Murata plans roughly ¥1 trillion of investment from 2026 to 2030, about ¥3,500 億円 for buildings (three new plants in Japan and two overseas sites) and about ¥6,500 億円 for equipment, aiming to more than double MLCC sales from ¥0.9 trillion in FY2025. Spending ramps from FY2028 and is funded mainly from operating cash flow.
Very. Data-center-related sales doubled year on year to ¥1,649 億円 in H1 and are forecast at ¥4,250 億円 for the full year, and AI-server capacitor demand is the main reason for the guidance raise and the MLCC capacity expansion.
億円 (oku-en) means ¥100 million. Murata reports in this unit, so ¥10,908 億円 equals ¥1.0908 trillion. The summaries on this page keep the deck's own unit to avoid conversion errors.
Yes. The page offers the original PDF and an editable PPTX converted from it. The waterfall bridges, financial tables and segment commentary grids can serve as a template for your own earnings or results presentation.
