About Aratas's business
Introduction
Omron’s Device & Module Solutions Company (Electronic Components Business / DMS) will be spun off on July 1, 2026, and established as Aratas Corporation. From October onward, Carlyle is set to become the majority shareholder.
Following its independence from Omron, Aratas will carry forward the quality and reliability cultivated as part of Omron’s founding business. Through agile and autonomous management, supported by optimal investment decisions tailored to the electronic components business, the company aims to achieve both sustainable growth and profitability, and to establish itself as a top-tier company in the electronic components market.
Under Carlyle’s ownership, Aratas will further accelerate business growth. Together with the industrial components business to be integrated into the company, it aims to achieve significant revenue expansion by 2030.

Social Issues and Solutions
(Social Issues and Approaches to Solutions)
In our vision of society in 2030, new energy sources with low environmental impact will be introduced, and all products and infrastructure will be DC.
The increasing speed and capacity of telecommunications and the IoT in society and the home will keep all products connected and operating stably, resulting in ever more convenient and comfortable lifestyles. Furthermore, it is now commonplace that all such products are environmentally friendly.
To help realize this society, Aratas will create devices that support the spread of new energy and high-speed communications.
Climate change (global warming)
Achieving carbon neutrality and contributing to the spread of new energies*2
Contributing to reliable DC interruption and low power consumption to ensure the safety of new energy infrastructure and products.
*2 New energy: Renewable energy and innovative energy such as hydrogen and fuel cells
Aging society and widening economic disparity among individuals
Realization of a digital society and contributing to the spread of high-speed communications
It overcomes the restrictions and challenges of equipment created by the evolution of semiconductors, and contributes to the reliability of high-frequency switching and digitization of sensory information.
We will solve these problems with solutions in these two areas where further growth opportunities are expected, with solutions centered on devices and modules.
DC Equipment
One of the measures to combat climate change is to reduce CO2 emissions.
The shift from engine to electric drive is progressing, requiring higher performance DC (direct current) products*3.
Electric products using batteries and motors are expected to replace conventional engine-driven products in the future.
For sustainable energy utilization, the flow of power generation, storage, and usage will become the mainstream, and the importance of short-circuit prevention and electric shock prevention will increase.
Aratas will contribute to the realization of carbon neutrality by developing a broad lineup of high-capacity products and providing technologies that safely interrupt current with minimal heat generation.
*3 DC products: Products that run on direct current
High-frequency equipment
To solve the labor shortage caused by the declining birthrate and aging population, the spread of high-speed communications such as 5G/6G is accelerating, and semiconductors are becoming faster and larger in capacity.
Aratas will contribute to the evolution of high-speed communications together with our customers by making prompt proposals, making full use of our core fine mechanical technology.
