With both revenue growth forecasts and net profit margin unchanged, analyst estimates for NTT remain stable, resulting in an unchanged consensus price target of ¥177.
What's in the News
- NTT Research and Tohoku University published a paper demonstrating that single-photon coherent Ising machines (CIM) can outperform conventional CIMs in combinatorial optimization problems, based on quantum modeling.
- The new single-photon CIM leverages extremely weak light (one photon per pulse), challenging previous assumptions about poor performance due to a low signal-to-noise ratio.
- Numerical simulations revealed unexpectedly strong performance, attributed to rapid conversion of quantum entanglement into robust classical correlations via quantum measurement and feedback.
- The collaboration will continue towards physical implementation of the single-photon CIM and development of Cyber CIM, a large-scale simulation environment for industrial applications.
