Analysts on Smartkarma have been closely monitoring SCREEN Holdings, with insights from experts like Scott Foster and Brian Freitas shedding light on the company’s performance. Scott Foster‘s report, “Screen Holdings (7735 JP): Guiding for Lower Profits in H2,” notes a 24% decline in share price from its March high. Despite the YoY profit decline in the second half of the fiscal year, Foster believes the guidance may be conservative due to strong AI-related foundry and high bandwidth memory demand.
