Net sales | 97.1 | 135.9 | 40.0% |
Operating income | 26.1 | 44.8 | 71.4% |
Income before income taxes | 25.7 | 48.4 | 88.1% |
Net income | 19.3 | 36.5 | 88.7% |
During Advantest's three-month period ended June 30, 2022, inflation continued in Japan and overseas due to the rise in resource prices stemming from the situation in Ukraine and supply chain disruptions caused by China's lockdowns. Central banks, mainly in the West, raised interest rates to curb inflation, but this led to turmoil in stock markets and foreign exchange markets. Uncertainty about the future of the global economy has increased and recession fears are rising.
In the semiconductor market, this uncertain economic situation dampened demand for semiconductors for some consumer electronics such as smartphones, personal computers, and televisions, but the ongoing digitalization of society supported strong demand for semiconductors overall. Notably, in addition to growing demand for semiconductors related to data centers and AI, demand for high-performance smartphone semiconductors such as those for 5G continued at a high level. Although moves to adjust inventories have been observed in some areas, there is still a strong awareness of shortages of semiconductors for automobiles and industrial equipment, and Advantest's customers continue to be highly willing to make capital investments.
As the shortage of semiconductors and other parts, and logistical disruptions in distribution networks, affect a broad range of supply chains, Advantest continues to face difficulties in terms of parts procurement. In this business environment, Advantest strove to improve our production system and stabilize procurement of parts, while also working to capture the expanding demand for semiconductor test equipment.
As a result of the above, net sales were (Y) 135.9 billion (40.0% increase in comparison to the corresponding period in the previous fiscal year), operating income was (Y) 44.8 billion (71.4% increase in comparison to the corresponding period in the previous fiscal year), income before income taxes was (Y) 48.4 billion (88.1% increase in comparison to the corresponding period in the previous fiscal year) and net income was (Y) 36.5 billion (88.7% increase in comparison to the corresponding period in the previous fiscal year). In addition to top-line sales growth boosted by yen depreciation vs the US dollar, highly profitable products took a more prominent role in our sales mix, pushing all the above figures to record quarterly highs. Average currency exchange rates in the period were 1 USD to 124 JPY (109 JPY in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year), and 1 EUR to 134 JPY (131 JPY in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year). The percentage of net sales to overseas customers was 97.3% (97.0% in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year).

fiscal year | |||
increase (decrease) | |||
Net sales | 67.3 | 96.1 | 42.7% |
Segment income | 24.4 | 40.7 | 67.0% |
In this segment, sales of SOC semiconductor test equipment for advanced process devices increased significantly amidst the further miniaturization and performance gains of HPC (High Performance Computing) devices and application processors. Sales of test equipment for mature process products such as automotive and industrial devices were also strong against the backdrop of production capacity investments by semiconductor manufacturers. Sales of test equipment for memory semiconductors remained at the same high level as in the corresponding period of the previous year, as the market environment for these products continued to be favorable.
As a result of the above, net sales were (Y) 96.1 billion (42.7% increase in comparison to the corresponding period in the previous fiscal year), and segment income was (Y) 40.7 billion (67.0% increase in comparison to the corresponding period in the previous fiscal year).

Net sales | 11.5 | 15.4 | 34.6% |
Segment income | 2.0 | 4.6 | 2.3 times |
In this segment, sales of device interface products, test handlers, and nanotechnology products increased due to strong customer motivation to invest in semiconductor test equipment and wider adoption of EUV lithography technology. In terms of profits, on top of increased sales, the product mix improved, contributing to higher segment profitability.
As a result of the above, net sales were (Y) 15.4 billion (34.6% increase in comparison to the corresponding period in the previous fiscal year), and segment income was (Y) 4.6 billion (2.3 times increase in comparison to the corresponding period in the previous fiscal year).
