Earnings Report

WARABEYA NICHIYO HOLDINGS CO.,LTD. <2918> [TSE Prime] announced its financial results after the market closed on January 8th (15:30). The consolidated ordinary profit for the cumulative third quarter of the fiscal year ending February 2026 (March to November) expanded 7.63 billion yen, an increase 33.0% compared to the same period last year. Progress toward the full-year plan of 7.20 billion yen is 106.0%, already exceeding the target and also exceeding the five-year average of 97.2%.

Based on the cumulative third-quarter performance announced by the company and the unchanged full-year plan, our calculation indicates that the consolidated ordinary loss for the December to February period (4Q) is expected to further decrease loss of 0.43 billion yen (compared to a loss of 0.84 billion yen in the same period last year). However, if the fourth-quarter performance remains at the same level as the first three quarters, the full-year plan may be increased.

In the most recent three-month period, from September to November (3Q), the consolidated ordinary profit surged 2.1 times that of the same period last year, reaching 2.39 billion yen. The operating profit margin improved from 2.0% in the same period last year to 3.9%.
