TOWNNEWS-SHA, Jul-Mar (Cumulative 3Q) Ordinary Profit Increases by 11%, Exceeds Full-Year Plan
2481 TOWNNEWS-SHA CO.,LTD. 【J-GAAP】
Earnings ReportTOWNNEWS-SHA CO.,LTD. <2481> [TSE Std] announced its financial results after the market closed on April 24th (15:30). The ordinary profit (non-consolidated) for the cumulative third quarter of the fiscal year ending June 2026 (July 2025 to March 2026) increased 10.9% from the same period last year, reaching 652 million yen. Progress toward the full-year plan of 551 million yen is 118.3%, already exceeding the target and also exceeding the five-year average of 103.6%.
Based on the cumulative third-quarter performance announced by the company and the unchanged full-year plan, our calculation indicates that the ordinary loss for the April to June period (4Q) is expected to expand to a loss of 101 million yen (compared to a loss of 1 million 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 January to March (3Q), the ordinary profit grew 22.4% from the same period last year, reaching 405 million yen. The operating profit margin rose from 27.1% in the same period last year to 30.0%.
