AI Briefing
KOA: Japan-based global maker of resistors, inductors and passive/active circuit components, with integrated manufacturing across Japan, China, Taiwan and Malaysia. FY26/3 revenue ¥72.3B rebounding off FY25/3 trough (¥64.1B, OP margin 1.8%), though margins remain well below FY23/3's 13.6% peak as pricing and mix pressures persist. No tender offer in play; trades at EV ¥81.3B vs EBITDA LTM ¥11.1B, with shareholder base anchored by trust banks and Nippon Life — margin recovery is the key watchpoint.
