As of 2:00 p.m. on the 23rd, NIHON KOGYO CO., LTD. <5279> ranked fifth in "rising buy predictions" according to Minkabu's aggregated "individual investor predictions (latest 48 hours)".

After the close of trading on the 22nd, the company announced that its consolidated results for the fiscal year ending March 2026, currently being tallied, appear to have exceeded previous forecasts. Sales revenue is expected to reach 16.3 billion yen (up 10.5% year-on-year), compared to the prior forecast of 15.2 billion yen. Operating profit is projected at 790 million yen (up 33.0% year-on-year), revised upward from 630 million yen. Net profit is anticipated to be 570 million yen (up 45.0% year-on-year), versus the previous estimate of 430 million yen. The civil engineering materials business, centered on port-related products, performed strongly and served as the primary driver. Additionally, the company successfully expanded sales of high-value-added products and steadily passed on rising raw material costs to selling prices.

In response, NIHON KOGYO shares rebounded sharply on the day with strong trading volume, which appears to have contributed to the rise in buy predictions.
