Fujifilm released its Q1 financial results. Here is the recap for the Imaging Business, including a slide on the impact of Trump's tariffs):
- Strong demand for instant photo systems and digital cameras drove revenue by 11.2% year-over-year to JPY145.3 billion and operating income surged by 28.4% year-over-year to JPY41.8 billion.
- In the Consumer Imaging business, consistent demand for Instax instant photo systems contributed to higher revenue.
- In the Professional Imaging business, revenue growth was supported by the strong performance of the X Series and GFX Series cameras.
"In the first three months of the fiscal year ending March 2026, revenue increased by 0.1% year-over-year to JPY749.5 billion. This growth was primarily driven by a strong performance in the Bio CDMO, Semiconductor Materials and Imaging businesses, which offset the negative impact of exchange rates. Operating income rose across all segments, with the Imaging segment making a significant contribution, achieving a 21.1% year-over-year increase to JPY75.3 billion. Net income attributable to FUJIFILM Holdings decreased by 11.5% year-over-year to JPY53.8 billion, mainly due to foreign exchange losses.
The company has maintained its full-year consolidated forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026, despite accounting for the potential negative impact of the U.S. Tariff Policy, which was not incorporated in the previous forecast. The forecasted revenue is JPY3.28 trillion, with an operating income of JPY331.0 billion, and a net income attributable to FUJIFILM Holdings of JPY262.0 billion, aiming to achieve its record highs. The annual dividend forecast for the fiscal year is JPY70 per share, marking the 16th consecutive annual dividend increase."
