Earnings Report

NIHON KOHDEN CORPORATION <6849> [TSE Prime] announced its financial results after the market closed on November 10th (15:30). The consolidated net income for the cumulative second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2026 (April to September) surged 9.8 times that of the same period last year, reaching 4.52 billion yen.

However, the full-year forecast for consolidated net income has decreased 16.7%, from the previous forecast of 15.0 billion yen to 12.5 billion yen (compared to 14.0 billion yen in the previous period). This changes the outlook from an anticipated profit increase to a projection of an 11.3% decrease in profit.

Based on the first-half performance announced by the company and the full-year plan, our calculation indicates that the consolidated net income for the October to March period (second half) is expected to drop 41.5% from the same period last year to 7.97 billion yen.

In the most recent three-month period, from July to September (2Q), the consolidated net income/loss turned to a profit of 4.38 billion yen (compared to a loss of 0.30 billion yen in the same period last year). However, the operating profit margin decreased from 11.2% in the same period last year to 9.2%.
