Advantest stock (ISIN JP3122400009) was last at JPY 40,300 on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on October 5, 2026, up 4.32 percent from the prior close of JPY 38,630. The next major company checkpoint is October 28, 2026, when Advantest plans to announce its fiscal 2026 second-quarter results at 3:30 p.m. JST, according to Advantest.

Results date sets the next test

The October 28 release will update a growth picture built on AI-related semiconductor testing. In the first quarter of fiscal 2026, ended June 30, 2026, Advantest reported JPY 367.473 billion in revenue, JPY 189.306 billion in operating income and JPY 174.780 billion in net income, according to Advantest. The quarterly figures give the upcoming report a demanding benchmark, particularly for demand from high-performance computing and memory testing.

Advantest also disclosed a treasury-share disposal resolution dated September 30, 2026. The plan covers 111,036 shares with a payment price of JPY 33,910 per share and a payment date of October 28, 2026, as reported by Japan IR.

Analysts see limited upside

The valuation debate is now tied to the pace of AI tester demand. Investing.com reported a consensus Buy rating from 21 analysts and an average 12-month price target of JPY 42,138. That target lies 4.56 percent above the October 5 price of JPY 40,300.

The market is therefore pricing in continued execution before the next results date. The first-quarter operating income of JPY 189.306 billion and net income of JPY 174.780 billion provide the concrete earnings base against which the second-quarter update will be measured.

Stock reaches the yearly high
