Ever since developing the world's first CD-R in 1988, the TAIYO YUDEN Group has worked to develop and produce DVD-Rs and BD-Rs. Currently, our main target in this business is the market for archiving applications.
Net sales were down 4.6% year over year to ¥15,412 million, due to a decline in sales of CD-Rs and DVD-Rs/DVD+Rs.
In response to mounting demand for long-term optical storage devices (for archiving purposes), the Group continued with efforts to develop high-quality products for various types of recording format, such as CD-R, DVD-R and BD-R.
In step with contraction in consumer markets, the Group will optimize the size of its production base and the Group will work to transform its business model to ensure steady earnings. This will be achieved by focusing on cultivating the market for archiving applications, where the Group can exploit its strengths by supplying high quality products.
