Strategic Profile

The watches business contributes more than half of the company's revenue and manufactures men's and ladies' fashion watches. The company also develops and produces micro batteries, capacitors, quartz crystals, infrared sensor modules, precision parts, and thermal printers. Recent earnings momentum has been reinforced by stronger-than-expected nine-month results and higher dividend guidance as a short-term catalyst.
