What Mitsubishi Heavy Industries does

Diversified heavy-industry maker of power plants (gas/nuclear turbines), aircraft/defense systems, and ships.

Earns from large, multi-year contracts, so revenue lags orders by years: gas turbines and other power equipment for utilities, defense work led by the Japanese government, plus ships and machinery. It ended its SpaceJet passenger-airliner program in 2023 after years of losses.

In one line: A mix of GE Vernova, Lockheed Martin and a shipbuilder.

  • Industrials
  • Diversified heavy machinery
  • Power + Aerospace/Defense +…

What could go right

  • Global gas turbine demand (AI power buildout)
  • Defense budget increases in Japan/Asia

What could go wrong

  • Nuclear project cost overruns
  • Aerospace program execution risk

Moat: narrow (scale, IP / patents, regulatory licence). Deep engineering know-how and defense-sector licences, but competes globally with GE and Siemens Energy on turbines.

Questions

Who are Mitsubishi Heavy Industries's main competitors?
Named competitors: GE Vernova (GEV), Siemens Energy (ENR.DE), Kawasaki Heavy Industries (7012.T), IHI Corp (7013.T). The cockpit's measured peer set (industry) also includes Mitsubishi Electric (6503.T), LG Energy Solution (373220.KS), Ametek (AME), Rockwell Automation (ROK), BYD (002594.SZ), Siemens Energy (ENR.DE).
Is Mitsubishi Heavy Industries expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 22.3× against a peer median of 21.4×, 8th most expensive of 20 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 9% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +6%, so the hurdle is +3 pp: the price needs faster growth than the company has been delivering — of companies that just grew 25–50% a year, 93.8% slowed down over the next four years.
How has Mitsubishi Heavy Industries stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -36.9% against -21.5% for the median peer; over one year -32.8%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
