Datasection Inc. <3905> extended gains for a third straight session. Around 1:00 p.m., the company announced that its consolidated results for the fiscal year ended March 2026 are expected to exceed earlier forecasts. Operating profit is now forecast at 3,635 million yen (compared with an operating loss of 496 million yen in the previous year), up from the previous estimate of 3,498 million yen. Net profit is projected at 2,804 million yen (versus a net loss of 654 million yen in the previous year), an upward revision from the earlier estimate of 1,908 million yen. Investors welcomed the news.

Revenue missed initial projections, falling to 33,601 million yen from 37,273 million yen (though still 11.4 times the previous year's level), due to operational delays at Datasection's first domestic and Australian data center projects. However, the company decided to acquire and cancel its 22nd series of stock acquisition rights at no cost after allottees chose to forfeit them. Consequently, stock-based compensation expenses previously slated for selling, general and administrative costs will not be recognized, bolstering the bottom line.
