Daiwa rebounds sharply after 5 sessions on expectations of earnings improvement from Kanazawa New Grand Hotel sale

Wed Sep 2, 2026 2:18 pm JST Catalyst

Daiwa Co.,Ltd. <8247> rebounded sharply, snapping a five-session losing streak, after the company announced following the close of trading on the 1st that it would sell all shares of its consolidated subsidiary, Kanazawa New Grand Hotel, to a third party. The move appeared to attract buying interest from investors anticipating earnings improvements through the company's efforts to focus on its core business.

The buyer and sale price were not disclosed. Kanazawa New Grand Hotel posted a net loss of 1.634 billion yen for the fiscal year ending February 2026, compared with a loss of 370 million yen in the prior fiscal year. The transfer of shares and receivables is scheduled for October 1. Daiwa expects to book an extraordinary loss of approximately 10 billion yen in its consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ending February 2027, related to the loss on transfer of receivables. The company stated that the sale will accelerate its efforts to optimize the allocation of management resources, strengthen its financial base, and improve profitability.
