Earnings Report

NIPPON CHUZO K. K. <5609> [TSE Std] announced its financial results after the market closed on October 28th (15:30). The ordinary profit/loss (non-consolidated) for the cumulative second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2026 (April to September) turned into a profit of 257 million yen (compared to a loss of 42 million yen in the previous period).

However, the full-year forecast for ordinary profit has decreased 63.3%, from the previous forecast of 600 million yen to 220 million yen.

Based on the first-half performance announced by the company and the full-year plan, our calculation indicates that the ordinary profit/loss for the October to March period (second half) is expected to turn into a loss of 37 million yen (compared to a profit of 429 million yen in the previous period).

Due to a decline in performance, the company has significantly reduced its planned year-end lump-sum dividend for the current fiscal year from the original plan of 30 yen to 20 yen (compared to 30 yen in the previous period).

In the most recent three-month period, from July to September (2Q), the ordinary profit/loss turned to a profit of 240 million yen (compared to a loss of 34 million yen in the previous period). The operating profit/loss margin improved from -0.9% in the same period last year to 1.6%.

Note: Since the current fiscal year, the company has transitioned to non-consolidated financial statements.
