Both companies have issued press releases, as shown in the links below. Following

the 2016 Kumamoto earthquakes, Tokyo Electron experienced production delays

and recorded ¥7.5bn in extraordinary losses related to machinery and equipment,

inventories, restoration costs for buildings, and various support measures. Today’s

share price decline may reflect concerns over similar risks.

We would expect some update from Tokyo Electron at its earnings briefing on July

30. However, in 2016, it took approximately one month after the earthquake for the

company to announce its expected extraordinary loss., suggesting that the full

extent of the impact may not yet be clear by July 30.

Tokyo Electron: Response to the earthquake occurred on July 28th in Kumamoto,

Japan (July 28)

Summary: No significant damage to buildings or equipment has been identified.

Operations at both sites will be suspended on July 29 for safety inspections.
