Furukawa Electric (5801): Briefing: New management policy to lift investment in data center-related business

Furukawa Electric (5801): Mid-term

management plan briefing (19 May, 13:00)

Introduction

In the FY2025 mid-term management plan, all targeted financial metrics were achieved.

occurred, leading to substantial changes in specific measures and initiatives. Even if a

while maintaining the overall direction, target levels and specific measures will be

revised as necessary. The company aims to achieve Vision 2030 by committing to the

annual plans and forecasts announced at the time of fiscal year-end results and

delivering those outcomes.
