Gift Holdings in focus as market eyes further upward guidance revision

Mon Apr 13, 2026 10:00 am JST Catalyst

Gift Holdings Inc. <9279> remains in focus as the operator of the "Machida Shoten" ramen chain continues to demonstrate robust growth. In its first-quarter results (November 2025 to January 2026) reported on March 16, consolidated operating profit surged 85.2% year-on-year to \1,434 million. The performance was underpinned by steady same-store sales growth and disciplined cost management. While Gift Holdings recently upgraded its full-year operating profit guidance for the fiscal year ending October 2026 to \4.4 billion (a 30.6% year-on-year increase), market expectations are mounting for a further upward revision toward the \5 billion mark, given that Q1 results significantly outpaced initial targets.

The stock is projected to trade firmly in the \5,000 range, reflecting the company’s solid fundamental performance. (Chiwa)
