Shares of MetaReal <6182> surged following its post-market announcement on the 7th. The company upwardly revised its earnings guidance for the recently ended fiscal year (FY2/26), which is currently being finalized. Consolidated operating profit is now expected to reach \214 million (up 82.9% YoY), easily beating the previous forecast of \130 million. Net income was also revised up to \48 million (down 83.9% YoY) from the initial estimate of \10 million, drawing a highly positive reaction from the market.

Although orders in the newly launched AI contract development business exceeded initial targets, overall revenue is projected to fall slightly short of the previous \4.5 billion forecast, landing at \4.487 billion (up 9.9% YoY). This was primarily due to a sales shortfall at its subsidiary, STUDIO55. However, successful structural reforms launched in the previous fiscal year?including SG&A expense reductions and the discontinuation of unprofitable products and divisions?boosted profitability in the AI and HT businesses and narrowed losses in the metaverse segment, ultimately driving profits above original estimates.
