OSAKA — Daikin Industries achieved a record operating profit for the April-June 2026 quarter, growing 8% compared to the same period last year. The increase was driven by robust air conditioning sales amid European heat waves and rising demand for data center cooling in the United States. Daikin also expanded its market share in the Americas during this period, supported by premium product offerings.

The company’s performance highlights the impact of extreme weather conditions in Europe and growing infrastructure needs in the US on its business.
