NPC Inc rises for third straight session after operating profit for FY08/26 exceeds guidance

Thu Oct 1, 2026 9:47 am JST Catalyst

NPC Incorporated <6255> extended its winning streak to three straight sessions. The gains follow NPC's announcement after market close on Sep 30 that consolidated operating profit for the fiscal year ended Aug 2026 is expected to come in above its prior forecast of 760 million yen at about 846 million yen (down 52.3% year-on-year).

Revenue fell short of expectations, coming in at 5.811 billion yen (down 36.9% year-on-year) against the prior forecast of 8.014 billion yen, after inspection of equipment for a large domestic project scheduled for revenue recognition in Q4 was not completed. However, operating profit was boosted by high-margin relocation and modification projects, as well as a significant reduction in material costs - which account for a large portion of cost of sales - for projects involving new technologies and development components.
