FDK Announces New Mid-Term Plan R3 for 2026-2029

TOKYO, Apr 28 (Pulse News Wire) – FDK Corporation (6955.T) unveiled its mid-term plan R3 aimed at enhancing operational resilience and boosting profitability through 2029. Under R3, the company plans to diversify its portfolio, expand existing businesses, and foster a culture of innovation.

Key initiatives include developing next-generation battery technologies and strengthening global supply chains. In the previous two-year plan R2, FDK faced challenges such as geopolitical instability and rising costs but managed to achieve significant milestones. Notable achievements included acquiring Silitech Technology Corporation as a major shareholder and forming strategic partnerships to enhance production capabilities and secure stable raw material supplies. Financial highlights from the past three years show mixed results.

While operating profit margins improved, revenue fell short of targets due to external factors. Specifically, sales reached ¥595.6 million in fiscal 2025 against a target of ¥680 million. Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) also lagged behind expectations, standing at 2.1 compared to a goal of 2.5. Looking ahead, FDK emphasizes investments in high-value products and innovative solutions to drive sustainable growth and meet stakeholder expectations.
