Hitachi
Hitachi has reshaped itself around grid and digital infrastructure. FY2026 Q2 revenue rose 15% to JPY 2,904.4 billion, while adjusted EBITA reached JPY 376.1 billion at a 12.9% margin, both Q2 records. Energy revenue grew 28%, orders 47%, and H1 backlog reached JPY 10.5 trillion. FY2026 guidance was raised again to JPY 12,000 billion of revenue and JPY 1,560 billion of adjusted EBITA. The Mississippi transformer factory is scheduled for 2029 production, so the announced investment is distinct from current revenue.

YTD as of 2026-10-30 · source: Yahoo Finance
Hitachi gained 54.8% in 2023 and 96% in 2024 as grid demand was priced early, then slowed to 26% in 2025 and 5.1% through October 30, 2026. FY2026 Q2 Energy revenue rose 28% and orders 47%; H1 Energy backlog reached JPY 10.5 trillion, 14% above the FY2025 year-end. Orders and revenue are currently stronger than the share-price clock. The planned $528 million Mississippi transformer factory is not current revenue because production is scheduled for 2029. Whitehaven equipment supply and autonomous-haulage work belong to Hitachi Construction Machinery, not Hitachi Ltd., which sold its final stake in August 2026. Delayed HVDC execution or capacity expansion would weaken the backlog-to-revenue thesis.
