Sharp Corp. Hits Day High with 6.11% Surge in Stock Price

Sharp Corp., a mid-cap player in the Electronics & Appliances sector, has seen a notable increase of 6.11% on October 6, 2025, reaching an intraday high of JPY 897.00. This performance stands in contrast to the Japan Nikkei 225, which rose by 1.85% on the same day. Over the past week, Sharp Corp. has gained 2.67%, while its one-month performance shows a modest increase of 2.21%.
Despite these short-term gains, the company has faced challenges over the longer term, with a one-year performance decline of 10.06% and a year-to-date drop of 10.36%. In the past three years, Sharp Corp. has underperformed the benchmark index, reflecting a broader trend of consistent underperformance.

Financially, the company has reported positive results for the last three consecutive quarters, with significant growth in pre-tax and net profits. However, it also carries a high debt-to-equity ratio of 1.61, which may raise concerns about its financial stability. The current price reflects a high valuation with a price-to-book ratio of 3.24, alongside a dividend yield of 0.12%.
