ICOM INC, Ordinary Profit Forecast for the Fiscal Year Revised Downward to an Unexpected 21% Decrease, Dividend Revised down by 36 Yen
6820 ICOM INCORPORATED 【J-GAAP】
Earnings ReportICOM INCORPORATED <6820> [TSE Prime] announced its financial results after the market closed on November 11th (15:30). The consolidated ordinary profit for the cumulative second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2026 (April to September) dropped 31.4% from the same period last year to 1.00 billion yen.
In addition, the full-year forecast for consolidated ordinary profit has decreased 30.9%, from the previous forecast of 4.46 billion yen to 3.08 billion yen (compared to 3.90 billion yen in the previous period). This changes the outlook from an anticipated profit increase to a projection of a 21.1% decrease in profit.
Based on the first-half performance announced by the company and the full-year plan, our calculation indicates that the consolidated ordinary profit for the October to March period (second half) is expected to decrease 14.9% from the same period last year to 2.07 billion yen.
Due to a decline in performance, the company has significantly reduced its planned annual dividend for the current fiscal year from the original plan of 96 yen to 60 yen (compared to 83 yen in the previous period).
In the most recent three-month period, from July to September (2Q), the consolidated ordinary profit surged 4.0 times that of the same period last year, reaching 0.66 billion yen. However, the operating profit margin drastically worsened from 8.8% in the same period last year to 4.6%.
