Renesas Announces Consolidated Forecasts
TOKYO, July 25, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE: 6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today announced the consolidated financial forecasts for the nine months ending September 30, 2025. Renesas Electronics Group ("the Group") reports its consolidated forecasts on a quarterly basis as a range because of the difficulty of forecasting full-year results with high accuracy due to the short-term volatility of the semiconductor market. Additionally, in order to provide useful information to better understand the Group's constant business results, figures such as revenue, gross margin, and operating margin are presented in the non-GAAP format, which excludes or adjusts the non-recurring items related to acquisitions and other adjustments, including non-recurring expenses or income from the financial figures (GAAP, IFRS basis) following a certain set of rules. The gross margin and operating margin forecasts are given assuming the midpoint in the revenue forecast. Consolidated forecasts for the nine months ending September 30, 2025(January 1, 2025 to September 30, 2025) In millions of yen Non-GAAPRevenue Non-GAAP Gross Margin Non-GAAP Operating Margin Previous forecasts --- --- --- Forecasts as ofJuly 25, 2025 955,914to 970,914 56.7% 27.5% Increase (decrease) --- --- --- Percentage change --- --- --- Reference: Corresponding period of the previous year (January 1, 2024 to September 30, 2024) 1,055,879 56.4% 30.5% Note: Non-GAAP figures are calculated by removing or adjusting non-recurring items and other adjustments from GAAP (IFRS basis) figures following a certain set of rules. The Group believes non-GAAP measures provide useful information in understanding and evaluating the Group's constant business results, and, therefore, forecasts are provided on a non-GAAP basis. This adjustment and exclusion include the amortization of intangible assets recognized from acquisitions, other PPA (purchase price allocation) adjustments and stock-based compensation, as well as other non-recurring expenses and income the Group believes to be applicable. The consolidated forecasts for the nine months ending September 30, 2025, are calculated by combining the forecasts for the three months ending September 30, 2025, with the financial results of the six months ended June 30, 2025. The consolidated forecasts for the nine months ending September 30, 2025, are calculated at the rate of 148 yen per USD and 164 yen per Euro.

Asia Pacific Firms Use Google Cloud to Modernize, Innovate
SYDNEY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Enterprises in Asia Pacific are adopting Google Cloud solutions to remain competitive by modernizing complex IT infrastructure and making better use of data, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a global AI-centered technology research and advisory firm. Companies in Asia Pacific need to move data and workloads from legacy systems to modern, scalable platforms for future agility. Many are turning to Google and its provider partners for the tools and services they need for that transition. The 2025 ISG Provider Lens ® Google Cloud Partner Ecosystem report for Asia Pacific finds that companies in the region are transforming their digital infrastructures through cloud migration and data innovation. While keeping up with rapidly evolving technologies, enterprises in Asia Pacific are also under growing pressure to control costs, making it imperative that they maximize their return on cloud investments. Google Cloud's focus on addressing these challenges positions it as a preferred partner in the region. 'Companies in Asia Pacific need to move data and workloads from legacy systems to modern, scalable platforms for future agility,' said Michael Gale, partner and regional leader, ISG Asia Pacific. 'Many are turning to Google and its provider partners for the tools and services they need for that transition.' Demand for cloud services is rising quickly in Asia Pacific, accelerated by the need for better flexibility and operational performance, the report says.

Cloud adoption varies widely with differing levels of digital maturity in the region. Established markets such as Australia and New Zealand lead in advanced cloud solutions, while companies in emerging markets are rapidly integrating cloud services. In Southeast Asia, some governments are encouraging the trend with initiatives to promote digital economies. Generative AI is also gaining traction among enterprises in the region as companies begin to see it as essential for improved operational efficiency and customer engagement, ISG says. Enterprises are exploring GenAI applications including chatbots, predictive analytics and workflow automation. Google Cloud's AI and ML tools, such as Vertex AI, are becoming integral to these efforts. The rise of AI in Asia Pacific is also increasing demand for managed services to deploy and run AI solutions. Many enterprises in Asia Pacific are adopting hybrid cloud and multicloud strategies to balance flexibility, scalability and control by combining on-premises and public cloud resources, the report says. They are turning to service providers offering comprehensive support for these strategies, including tools such as Google Anthos for workload management across clouds. The rising importance of advanced analytics and data visualization in the region also is driving adoption of Google Cloud solutions, ISG says. Companies are seeking real-time analytics backed by a focus on data quality and governance. 'Enterprises in Asia Pacific are recognizing that their data needs to be accurate, accessible and compliant with data protection laws,' said Sonam Chawla, lead analyst, ISG Provider Lens Research, and lead author of the report. 'Solutions that support these strategic objectives help to create trust among companies and their partners.' The report also examines other trends in the Asia Pacific Google Cloud ecosystem, including growing demand for AI-enabled supply chain management and the rising need for data localization and security to comply with national laws.
