EIKEN INDUSTRIES CO.,LTD <7265> extended its losses on Friday. The firm announced its non-consolidated financial results for the first half ended April around 2:30 p.m., reporting net sales of 3.89 billion yen (down 4.4% year-on-year), operating income of 102 million yen (down 58.9%), and net income of 97 million yen (down 50.6%). The results missed its previous operating income forecast of 203 million yen, weighing on the stock.

In its core automotive filter business, while domestic sales to industry peers and trading companies rose, exports declined as sales to Asia struggled. Reduced production volume led to lower manufacturing efficiency and rising cost ratios, pressuring profits.

EIKEN INDUSTRIES maintained its full-year forecast for the fiscal year ending October 2026, projecting net sales of 8.35 billion yen (up 3.1% year-on-year), operating income of 408 million yen (down 0.7%), and net income of 301 million yen (down 7.7%).
