  • Advantest Shares Surge 8.4% on Upgraded Guidance and Treasury Share Cancellation Plans
    February 1, 2026, 11:43 AM EST. Advantest Corporation (TSE:6857) stock jumped 8.4% after the company posted record nine-month results and raised its March 2026 full-year guidance to ¥1.07 trillion in net sales and ¥454 billion in operating income.
