Latest Quarter Info
The company demonstrated robust revenue growth in the March 2026 quarter, with a significant 20.4% year-over-year increase and a 17.5% quarter-over-quarter rise. Operating profit reached 10014.0, maintaining a stable operating margin of 13.0%. While revenue momentum is strong, the net profit trend presents a mixed signal.
