Japanese NAND Flash giant Kioxia is striving for a V-shaped recovery in its performance. According to a report from Japanese news outlet 47news, benefiting from the quick rebound in the semiconductor market, Kioxia’s revenue this fiscal year is reportedly set to reach an all-time high, with operating profit nearing a historic second-highest level.

It is reported that Kioxia’s revenue for the fiscal year 2024 (April 2024 – March 2025) is estimated to reach JPY 1.6 trillion, setting a new historical high.

This is expected to be accompanied by an operating profit of around JPY 300 billion. Kioxia’s strong performance this fiscal year is in contrast with the previous fiscal year (April 2023 – March 2024), which recorded a loss of JPY 252.7 billion, the largest in its history.

The report also suggests that Kioxia is forecasted to maintain similar strong performance in the next fiscal year 2025 (April 2025 – March 2026).

The company’s highest annual revenue record stands at JPY 1.5265 trillion for the fiscal year 2021, with a peak operating profit of JPY 456.8 billion in the fiscal year 2017.

Kioxia was formerly known as Toshiba Memory. It became an independent entity spun off from Toshiba in June 2018 and rebranded as Kioxia in October 2019.

Recently, Japanese news outlet Nikkei reported that Kioxia submitted its listing application to the Tokyo Stock Exchange on August 23, with the goal of going public as soon as October.

Reportedly, Kioxia’s valuation is expected to exceed JPY 1.5 trillion (roughly USD 10.3 billion). The deal is anticipated to surpass the JPY 420 billion raised by chip equipment maker Kokusai Electric during its 2023 IPO, which was the largest of that year.

It is also expected to exceed the projected listing of Tokyo Metro in October, estimated at JPY 640 billion to 700 billion.
