jig.jp tops 'rising sell forecasts' ranking on Minkabu individual investor sentiment

Fri Jun 12, 2026 2:21 pm JST Catalyst

As of 2:00 p.m. on June 12, jig.jp co.,ltd. <5244> ranked first in the "rising sell forecasts" category of Minkabu's "Retail Investor Forecasts (Latest 48 Hours)."

Continued disappointment over the company's full-year consolidated earnings guidance, announced on May 14, fueled the rise in sell forecasts. For the fiscal year ending March 2027, jig.jp projects a 12.8% year-on-year double-digit jump in net sales to 16.5 billion yen, driven by contributions from its new Bachelor Date matching service and other ventures. However, operating profit is expected to remain virtually unchanged at 1.98 billion yen (up just 0.2%), severely weighed down by rising personnel costs, aggressive marketing and event outlays for user acquisition, upfront investments in new business segments, and other variable cost increases.

The shares have continued to probe for a floor since the earnings release, extending their slide to a seventh straight session today and hitting a new year-to-date low for the third consecutive day.
