Additional commentary on Mitsubishi Heavy Industries
The company is a key partner in the Global Combat Air Programme (GCAP), a joint venture involving Britain, Italy, and Japan.
GCAP focuses on developing a next‑generation stealth fighter expected to enter service around 2035.
The programme includes collaborative research on autonomous aircraft, a digital “combat cloud” for data exchange between jets, drones, and ground sensors, and efforts to secure its position within the partnership structure.
No new financial figures are reported, but the company continues to emphasize its role in joint design, production, and operational phases.
Additional commentary on SoftBank
SoftBank Corp. will announce its latest quarterly earnings at a financial conference in early November, covering the period ending 30 September 2026.
Analysts project a modest decline in earnings per share for the quarter compared with the same period a year earlier, while revenue is expected to rise moderately.
For the current fiscal year, projections indicate a further increase in earnings per share and overall sales relative to the prior year.
Market expectations suggest stable performance with slight upward pressure on revenue and a small contraction in quarterly profitability.
