Enigmo surges late in afternoon session after announcing 30-yen dividend for fiscal year ending January 2027

Enigmo Inc. <3665> shares surged in late afternoon trading today after the company announced around 3:00 p.m. a year-end dividend forecast of 30 yen per share for the year ending January 2027, maintaining the previous year's payout. The announcement, which had been previously listed as undecided, triggered a wave of buying.

Concurrently, Enigmo reported its first-quarter consolidated financial results for the February?April quarter. While net sales ticked down 2.0% year-on-year to 1.463 billion yen, the company posted an operating loss of 150 million yen, down from a 24 million yen profit a year earlier. Net profit, however, jumped 30.9% to 101 million yen. Performance diverged across segments: the travel platform business, which operates "BUYMA TRAVEL," maintained robust growth fueled by recovering traveler numbers, whereas the flagship fashion platform "BUYMA" suffered a decline in both revenue and profit. Front-loaded investments in AI implementation and user acquisition also dragged on the bottom line.

For the full year ending January 2027, Enigmo left its guidance unchanged, forecasting net sales of 7.267 billion yen (up 15.4% year-on-year), operating profit of 440 million yen (down 4.7%) and net profit of 493 million yen (up 51.1%).
